Here at Queenplay we are pleased to bring our members a huge collection of scratch cards to play. They are the ideal way for casual gamers to have fun while still having the chance to land some enormous wins. While all of the scratch cards on offer are based upon the same basic principle, they come in many different forms and have many different themes, ensuring that a wide range of tastes is catered for.
Anyone who has ever purchased a scratch card in a shop will already understand how they work and will have no problem getting started playing with them. The basic idea is to reveal the symbols hidden under the panel and if the right ones are uncovered, then you win a payout. The games are not meant to be complicated; rather they offer unadulterated fun to those looking to unwind.
As mentioned, while the games may be based upon the same idea, there are still many to choose from. For example, if you like travel then you will find cards that transport you around the world, others may be based upon sports,, while you can also find themes such as fantasy, festivities, history, jewellery, nature, and far more. These themes come to life on your screen thanks to excellent animations and graphics, which immerses you in the environment and creates a truly enjoyable atmosphere. You will also find that some games come with enjoyable bonus features, and absolutely all of them offer the chance of massive winnings.

Furthermore, you will find out if you have won straight away and do not need to go anywhere to collect your winnings. Don’t make the mistake of dismissing scratch cards because they seem too simple to be fun. Online scratch cards can provide you with hours of fast-paced and relaxing entertainment and we are sure that you will have a great time discovering this for yourself. Start exploring our collection of games today and it won’t be long before you start uncovering your first wins.
How to Play Scratch Cards
Online scratch cards work in almost exactly the same way as physical ones (except that you won’t have to worry about damaging your nails or hunting for a coin when uncovering the symbols). The first thing you need to do is set how much you want to spend on the card. The vast majority of scratch cards have a wide range of prices so that you can enjoy them regardless of your budget. Then, after purchasing the card, you can start clicking on the hidden symbol positions to reveal what is behind them.
The exact way that you win will vary slightly depending on the game being played. In many games, you need to reveal a number of symbols and find at least three that match. The symbols will depend on the theme, and in some games, there will simply be cash amounts hidden under the panels. In games where symbols are used there will be a paytable showing you how much each symbol is worth. In other games, there may be one symbol displayed at the side and you win if any of your symbols match it. There may be some variation on this, but essentially, it is a case of uncovering the symbols and hoping to find the right ones.
When looking at a scratch card’s paytable, the payouts will normally be expressed as multiples of the price paid for a card. Some of them give you the chance to win truly staggering amounts, tens of thousands times the bet. Thanks to this, these simple games can result in life-changing wins, even if you are betting just a small amount on each card.
Some scratch cards give players multiple chances to win a payout and in these games, each chance is referred to as a line (much like in bingo where patterns have to be completed on the card). When you buy one of these scratch cards, you will be purchasing lines and the good news is that each line gives you a separate chance to win. Thanks to this, you may find yourself winning multiple payouts from a single card.
In most scratch cards, you will find a number of tools that are designed to make the playing experience even smoother. For instance, nearly all games have a “Reveal All” button, which as the name suggests, simply reveals all the symbols at once so that you don’t have to click on them individually. This speeds up the game, allowing for rapid pace of play, which for many people will also increase the levels of excitement. Many games will also have some kind of auto play functionality. You can set how many cards you want to play, start the process, and then just sit back and watch the action take place. As noted, there is nothing complicated about scratch cards, but they can be extremely exciting, especially when played at high speed using these tools.
Choosing the Right Scratch Card for You
Because scratch cards are all so similar, selecting a game really becomes largely about the theme. Luckily, there are many of them, so everyone is sure to find some that appeal. Traditionalists will love the more basic ‘classic’ style scratch cards. These don’t really have much of a theme, but they are very similar to the cards that you will see in shops. They are the scratch card equivalent of a slot fruit machine, basic, but still enjoyable.
However, there are many games that go far beyond this. For example, some games have fantasy like themes that can take you on great adventures. You could travel back in time to visit the Ancient Egyptians, set sail on a pirate ship, chase the end of a rainbow with a leprechaun in Ireland, move in to a king’s palace, and far more. There really are no boundaries to the type of journey a theme may take you on and you are sure to find plenty of games that appeal to your innate sense of adventure.
Of course, these adventure games will not appeal to everyone, but there are still many more to choose from. If you normally enjoy traditional casino games then you will find scratch cards based upon the classics such as Blackjack. These scratch cards obviously do not require the same kind of strategic thinking as the games that they are based upon, but they introduce elements of them and allow you to enjoy your favourite casino games while truly relaxing.
You will also find a few scratch cards that feel closer to bingo or lottery style games. In these games, there is normally a set of winning numbers and you win by uncovering enough matching numbers. In short, you should definitely take the time to explore the different games, as you will find great variety within the collection.
We are confident that all our members will find plenty of themes that appeal to them, but themes are not the only thing to consider when choosing a scratch card. While the basic games are very simple, many of them offer small bonus features, and you will also want to look into them. Some scratch cards will have special multiplier symbols that can significantly enhance the payout, and others may offer special jackpot prizes won through a bonus feature. A few scratch cards will also have entirely separate bonus games. These not only bring a new dimension to the theme, but also add a little variety to the game play and give you even more ways to win.
As with all casino games, scratch cards also have a theoretical Return to Player percentage (RTP). This tells you what percentage of money bet on a game is returned to players over time. For example, a game with an RTP of 95% will theoretically payout €0.95 of every €1 bet on it back to players. However, it is important that you remember that this is over time, so there are no guarantees that you will receive that much money back. On the other hand, because not all players will receive the RTP back, it means that some players will of course win more than 100% of the money that they bet on the game, and this is why it is possible to land a life-changing win.
Spend some time exploring our collection of scratch cards today. There really are plenty on offer and you are bound to find many that appeal. Furthermore, we launch new games on a very regular basis, so if nothing jumps out at you now, there is a good chance that we will soon introduce a game that does. You never know what you will find as your scratch away at the hidden symbols and with a bit of luck, you may be the next person to hit a scratch card jackpot and change your life forever.
