How to win an instant lottery game
Many of the games online are match to win - where scratching 3 or more identical values will award a prize.
Once the card has been scratched, any winning values will be highlighted. Your balance should be instantly updated with the displayed prize value.
Typically, the prize paid will be equal to the matched symbols on the card.
While match to wins are the most common kind of online scratch games there are vastly more complicated games available. Some instant win lotteries even offer several games on a single card.
