Best District of Columbia Scratchers by Current Payout (October 2026)

Updated · 59 games on sale

As of October 14, 2026, the District of Columbia scratchers leading on payout are Full of $5,000s ($20, 81.4% payout, $16.29 back per $20 ticket), $1,000,000 Money Maker ($30, 81.0% payout, $24.30 back per $30 ticket) and Titanium 7s ($30, 79.9% payout, $23.98 back per $30 ticket). Triple 777 ($10) sits first in the list below, but its figures come from prize tiers that disagree about how many of its tickets are left, so we do not lead with it.

What payout means

Current payout is the share of every dollar spent on the game that goes back to players from the prizes still unclaimed, estimated from the tickets we believe remain. A game that launched at 70% payout can drift up (big prizes still out there, many tickets sold) or down (top prizes already claimed).

Who this list is for. It is the single best number for someone who buys a few tickets a week and wants the most value back over time. It is the metric both paid competitor tiers charge for; here it is free.

Its blind spot. Payout says nothing about how often you win. A game can carry a high payout mostly through one enormous prize you will almost certainly not hit.

Movers this week

No game moved more than a tenth of a payout point in the last seven days; District of Columbia publishes claims in small batches, so most weeks are quiet.

Frequently asked questions

How is payout calculated?
Current payout is the share of every dollar spent on the game that goes back to players from the prizes still unclaimed, estimated from the tickets we believe remain. A game that launched at 70% payout can drift up (big prizes still out there, many tickets sold) or down (top prizes already claimed).
Who should use the payout ranking?
It is the single best number for someone who buys a few tickets a week and wants the most value back over time. It is the metric both paid competitor tiers charge for; here it is free. Payout says nothing about how often you win. A game can carry a high payout mostly through one enormous prize you will almost certainly not hit.
Which District of Columbia game is #1 on payout today?
Triple 777 (#1474, $10) on October 14, 2026. Treat that with caution: its prize tiers disagree about how many of its tickets are left, which flatters its current figures; the best game whose figures hold together is Full of $5,000s (#1589, $20). The bottom of the list is Easy Money (#1452, $2).
How current are these numbers?
They come from District of Columbia Lottery prize figures captured on October 14, 2026 and are recomputed daily. Rankings move when prizes are claimed, especially large ones.
