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; West Virginia 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 West Virginia game is #1 on payout today?
- $100,000 JUMBO CASH (#1218, $20) on October 14, 2026. The bottom of the list is CELEBRATE 40 2X (#1249, $1).
- How current are these numbers?
- They come from West Virginia Lottery prize figures captured on October 14, 2026 and are recomputed daily. Rankings move when prizes are claimed, especially large ones.
