Did you know that you don't have to scratch online on sites without an Irish licence? Foreign scratchcard games offer much better chances of winning (in real money) because they are not restricted in terms of bonuses and redistribution rates. They are also much less taxed, as they are not based in Ireland.

A non-GRAI-licensed virtual scratchcard site offers players a wider range of options and gaming experiences. These platforms often offer a wider variety of scratch tickets, with innovative themes and mechanics that are not available on licensed sites. In addition, they offer more attractive bonuses and promotions, as they are not subject to the same tax and regulatory restrictions as local operators. This includes more generous welcome bonuses, potentially higher player return rates (PRRs) and ongoing promotional offers.
YES! It is permitted, and even a right, to use an online service even if it is not licensed in Ireland. As with a licensed site, you will have to declare your winnings if they are substantial.
The difficulty lies in finding a trusted international operator that accepts Irish players. That's where we come in, to your delight.
Paper tickets
The first place where you can have fun with scratchcards is none other than at the local newsagent. Indeed it’s at the corner newsagent and tobacconist shops where players often try their luck at Game Store games, such as Bingo Blue, Fast €200 or even €100,000 Red. Usually tickets purchased at these locations never cost more than €5 but out of 60,000 cards, only one will win a jackpot of about $1,000,000. We admit it; the win/bet ratio for the paper version of scratchcards is pretty lousy.
Playing on the Irish National Lottery website
It goes without saying that the Irish National Lottery has its own official site. There you can bet on all the scratchcards you want and occasionally they have exclusive offers. You can indulge in playing the lottery on their website and you can also check out the latest Euro Millions draws. The advantage of this online platform is that you don’t have to leave home in order to play. Additionally, the fees they charge are the same.as other locations.
Free online scratchcards
Various independent platforms also allow you to play purely for pleasure. They’re based on one overriding principle: to bring together a community of passionate players who share a mutual admiration and who love scratch tickets games. Sometimes contests are organized on these sites that might give you the chance to win a nice prize.
On online casinos
Online casinos generally have a section dedicated to scratchcards. Sometimes they’re referred to as “Other Games” because they also include bingo and lottery games. We should mention to you that online casinos are regulated. But this distinction doesn’t necessarily mean that all online casinos are bad. On the contrary, there are some web casinos that are of very good quality and known for their reliability.
Specialized dealers
Some web sites are operated by dealers who are top-notch specialists in the development and production of scratchcards. Usually these sites are where those who gamble for money reap the most benefits. Not only are the online scratchcards offered on these platforms of high quality (equipped with 2D and 3D graphics and animation) but in addition to that they give you the opportunity to win much money than other places because of their significant payout rates and permanent bonuses.
“Tombola” scratch tickets
Tombola tickets , issued as a result of voluntary and community initiatives, are cards that allow various organizations to raise funds for a mission or a particular cause. In exchange for the chance to win prizes, the buyer or contributor purchases a ticket that will fund an initiative. Non-governmental organizations and charitable organizations often make use of this practice which allows players to combine the practical with the profitable.
