Ended California Scratchers (October 2026)
40 California scratchers have stopped selling and are still within a year of their end, as of October 25, 2026. 25 can still be claimed; the first deadline is December 8, 2026 (Celebrate 2026). 15 are past their claim deadline.
A game leaves the shelves before its prizes stop being paid: the lottery stops shipping it, sells out what is in stores, and then keeps paying winners until a last claim date. A ticket in a drawer is worth checking against this list before it goes in the bin. Games still on sale are not here, even when their end is announced: those are on the ending page.

Ended California scratchers: questions
- Can I still cash an ended California scratcher?
- Yes, until its last claim date. 25 of the 40 games California has stopped selling still accept claims; the first deadline is December 8, 2026, for Celebrate 2026. After the deadline a winning ticket cannot be paid.
- How long do I have to claim a California scratcher prize after a game ends?
- Until the last claim date California sets for that game, which it announces when the game ends. The open deadlines here run from December 8, 2026 to April 10, 2027.
- Are there unclaimed top prizes on ended California scratchers?
- 49,759 top prizes are listed as unclaimed on games whose claim period is open. Most were never sold or are in tickets that were thrown away; once the deadline passes they are not paid out.
