Price is the strongest predictor of payout on a scratcher: across a lottery's games, pricier tickets tend to return a larger share of their price in prizes. In Arizona as of October 25, 2026, $1 games average 59.7%, $2 games average 63.1%, $3 games average 67.1%, $5 games average 69.4%, $10 games average 71.1%, $20 games average 75.1%, $30 games average 87.7%.
