World’s first clear, plastic scratch game launched in Idaho

The Idaho Lottery is pioneering a first of its kind scratch game with the world’s first clear, plastic scratch ticket.

The new game, Cash Getaway, is 100 percent recyclable, and you can actually see through the ticket.

In addition to the unique ticket material and design, the game uses interactive technology that enhances the fun of the game.

Located on the top half of the ticket, you scratch and reveal a unique code for use with your mobile device or PC. The bottom half of the ticket plays like a traditional scratch ticket. If you don’t have access to a mobile device or a computer, you can still play the new game. Each ticket features the Idaho Lottery’s security bar code which may be scanned at retail locations to collect your winnings.

“The Idaho Lottery has a long history of being on the forefront of cutting edge technology,” said Jeff Anderson, Idaho Lottery Director. “Idaho is a unique geographic marketplace that is ideal for trying new products and new innovations that will eventually lead to introduction in other jurisdictions around the country.”

The new $5 game also features two top prizes of $50,000 awarded either in cash payment or as a luxurious vacation of a lifetime. You get to choose.

Idaho Lottery officials said this new game was shipped to retailers earlier this week and will be available in retail stores everywhere in Idaho by the end of the week.

The technology for this new product was created by Pollard Banknote.
