Prizes of $100 or more still unclaimed477Lucky 7s, as of October 23, 2026
At least one prize in 5 tickets78%from the published odds of 1 in 3.83

Of 100 people who buy 5 tickets each, about 78 win at least one prize of some size. Most of those prizes are small; WCLC does not publish how many of each small prize are printed.

Big prizes still unclaimed

$77720
$10,0002

“Unclaimed” is not “still in stores”: some of these prizes may sit on tickets already bought and not yet cashed. For national games the count covers every participating region.

Why no payout here: WCLC publishes the overall odds and the prizes of $100 or more left, but not the full prize table, so the share of money paid back cannot be counted. Claim by: March 31, 2028.

How it is calculated

Chance of at least one prize in n tickets = 1 − (1 − 1/N)n, with N from the published “1 in N”.

N3.83

n5

Result78.0%

The published N is rounded, and tickets from one print run are not quite independent; for a few tickets the difference is tiny.

Questions

Where can I see WCLC scratch tickets remaining prizes?

WCLC publishes a prizes remaining page on its website. The tool above reads it and shows unclaimed prizes at or above the amount in its heading, by game. The last update was October 23, 2026.

Can you tell which scratch ticket will win?

No. The list gives only counts of unclaimed prizes, not which tickets or stores hold them. Some may sit on tickets already sold but not cashed. Every ticket costs money.

How often is the WCLC remaining prizes list updated?

WCLC shows a Last Updated date on the page; the current one is October 23, 2026. The source does not state a fixed schedule, so check the date before reading the counts.

Why is there no payback figure for WCLC scratch tickets?

Payback needs a full prize table with every prize level. The data used here covers only unclaimed prizes at or above the list amount and the overall odds, so value per dollar is not calculated.

Do the counts include tickets sold outside Western Canada?

For national games marked with a star, yes: WCLC counts prizes unclaimed in all participating lottery jurisdictions, based on information given to WCLC.
