Online scratch cards work the same way as scratch cards that you buy in the corner store. The only difference is that you won’t need a coin to scratch the surface of the card since everything is virtual. In order to scratch one of the surfaces on an online scratch card all you need to do is click on the area of the card that you want to scratch. Once you’ve clicked on the area you want to scratch the prize underneath will be revealed and you simply continue doing this until you’re not allowed anymore. You’ll then be paid out any winnings you’ve won and have the chance to buy another card.

Most online casinos will offer a variety of prices for their scratch cards and the amount you can win will usually reflect how much you’ve spent. Scratch cards can cost as little as $.01 in some online casinos although most range from $.10 – $1. Some online casinos will have scratch card games where you can bet as much as you want. In this type of online scratch card game you select how much you want to bet and then you need to try and reveal three identical bet multipliers. If for instance you were to reveal 3 10x symbols on your online scratch card then you’d win 10x your initial bet.

Many online scratch cards that you will find at sites will also have huge jackpots available to be won. When there is a jackpot involved there will be a jackpot symbol that you’ll need to reveal 3x just like you do for other prizes.

You’d be hard pressed to play any other game for an entire night with $10 except for possibly some penny slot machines.

Playing online scratch cards can be better then playing some online penny slots. The payout percentage on scratch cards is often quite a bit better then the payout percentage for online penny slot machines. Some online casinos even have 1 in every 3 cards set-up as a winner. Of course some of the payouts are smaller then the amount you’ve spent on the card, but you’ll also have the chance at winning a big amount of money as well.
