Identifying a scratch card game

National Lottery Ireland logo

Identifying the game number on our scratch card games is a quick and easy process.

  1. On the bottom of all games, there is a white panel containing the Game Information Panel.
  2. Scratch Card Game Identity Panel

  3. The first three digits of the code within this Panel refer to the game number of that particular game.
  4. Scratch Card Game Number

  • Players should check this number when referring to corresponding game rule documentation as from time to time, multiple game number versions may be on sale simultaneously.
  • Prize structure and game change enhancements may be made with each new version of a game.  It is important to make sure that players are referring to the correct version of the rules that apply to that game number. 
  • Rules for one game version may not necessarily be applicable to an older or newer version of the same game.

 

When the play period for a game comes to an end, an announcement will be added to the Game End announcement page. From this date, a player has up to 90 days to claim any outstanding prizes.
