Data captured · 6 active $2 games

As of November 6, 2026, 6 $2 scratch games are on sale in Washington, averaging 67.8% current payout. The best of them is TIC TAC TRIPLER at 68.7% ($1.37 back per ticket, 1 in 4.07 for any prize). DOUBLE DOLLAR$ tops the list below at 76.5%, but its figures come from prize tiers that disagree about how many of its tickets are left, so we do not lead with it.

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 Washington as of November 6, 2026, $1 games average 68.6%, $3 games average 67.8%, $5 games average 69.0%, $10 games average 70.7%, $20 games average 76.3%, $30 games average 75.2%. That is a tendency, not a rule: within this $2 tier the spread between the best and worst game is 11.5 payout points, which is why the table matters more than the tier.
