Georgia Lottery is Booming

Georgia scratchers revenue has grown 49% in eight years, climbing from $4.58 billion in 2017 to nearly $3.7 billion in 2025. That is steady growth driven by strong player engagement across the state and across the country. On average, every adult in Georgia spends roughly $340 per year on scratch-off tickets, and scratchers now account for nearly 62% of all Georgia Lottery revenue.

Georgia Lottery Scratchers — Summary Data

Below is our real-time summary of all active Georgia Lottery scratch-off games. This data is updated daily from official Georgia Lottery records.

Per Capita Trends

How Much Does the Average Georgian Spend on Scratchers?

The Georgia Lottery did not always publish detailed annual financial reports, so reliable per capita spending data only goes back to 2017. In that first year of available data, the average Georgia adult spent just $220 per year on scratch-off tickets. By 2025, that figure has climbed to $340 per person—a 48% increase in annual spending per capita. The sharpest spike came in 2021 when per capita spend hit $380, likely fueled by stimulus-era discretionary spending. While spending has normalized since then, it remains significantly above pre-2020 levels, reinforcing just how embedded scratchers have become in Georgia’s entertainment landscape.

What is driving this growth? A combination of higher-priced ticket offerings like $10 and $20 games, larger top prizes that generate buzz, and Georgia’s booming population across the Atlanta, Savannah, and Augusta metro areas. For players, more sales volume means more tickets in circulation, which makes prize tracking even more important. Popular games can burn through top prizes faster when sales are surging, which is exactly why data-driven tools like ScratchSmarter’s SmartFactor rankings exist.

Georgia Scratch-Off Games — Active Games & Top Prizes Remaining

Before you buy your next scratch-off ticket, check which Georgia Lottery games still have top prizes available. We pull this data from the Georgia Lottery every day so you always have the latest numbers. Search by game name, price, or sort by prizes remaining.

Why Checking Top Prizes Matters

Here is something most players do not realize: the Georgia Lottery keeps selling scratch-off tickets even after all top prizes have been claimed. That means you could be buying a $20 or $30 ticket with zero chance of hitting the jackpot. Checking the table above before you buy is the simplest way to avoid wasting money on games that have already paid out their biggest prizes.

But knowing which top prizes remain is only step one. The real question is: how many tickets are still in circulation? A game with 3 top prizes left sounds great, but not if there are still 15 million unsold tickets. That is where ScratchSmarter’s SmartFactor comes in, and why thousands of Georgia players subscribe to our daily Best Games to Play report.

Does Georgia report all prize levels remaining?

Yes. Georgia is one of the most transparent lottery states in the country when it comes to scratchers data.

What is ScratchSmarter’s SmartFactor and how does it work?

The SmartFactor measures how the odds of winning a top prize have shifted since a game first launched. It compares the percentage of tickets remaining against the percentage of prizes remaining, similar to the concept of counting cards in blackjack. A higher SmartFactor means the odds have moved in the player’s favor relative to the original launch odds.

Can I still win a scratch-off if all top prizes have been claimed?

Technically yes, because lower-tier prizes may still remain. However, the Georgia Lottery continues selling tickets even after all top prizes have been claimed. If your goal is to win a top prize, always check the prizes remaining table on this page before buying. ScratchSmarter’s free report and daily SmartFactor rankings make this easy.

How much do Georgians spend on lottery scratchers per year?

Georgia adults spend approximately $340 per person annually on scratch-off tickets. Total Georgia scratchers sales exceeded $3.7 billion in 2025, accounting for roughly 62% of all Georgia Lottery revenue.

Methodology & Data Sources

ScratchSmarter analyzes official Georgia Lottery game and prize data sourced directly from mygeorgialottery.com. Our automated systems collect updated prize information for every active scratch-off game on a daily basis. This data includes ticket prices, overall odds, number of prizes at each tier, and the number of prizes remaining. Our proprietary SmartFactor ranking model compares the rate of prize depletion against estimated ticket depletion to identify games where the odds have shifted in the player’s favor since launch. This approach is conceptually similar to card counting: when prizes are being claimed more slowly than tickets are being sold, the remaining tickets carry better-than-original odds. We track up to 21 prize levels per game in Georgia, giving us one of the most granular analytical datasets of any state lottery program in the country.
