Online scratch cards and regular scratch cards all have age limits on them. In the UK if you want to buy scratch games from the lottery company you have to be at least sixteen. If you are buying online scratch cards you have to think about whether you are old enough. Check the site rules and see what applies to scratchcard play.

It’s important not to try and flout the scratch card rules as they’re there for a reason. Once you’re old enough you can check out all the free scratch cards as well as online scratch cards and much more besides.

Scratchcards are to be sold to over sixteen’s only

Don’t try to get around the rule, even if you think you could fool a website into selling you scratch cards. If you scratch off a scratch cards prize you wouldn’t be able to claim it anyway, because you’d be under age and unable to register your claim.

Scratch cards will always be around so don’t worry that you’re missing out. Instead just enjoy the idea of looking forward to visiting your favourite scratch cards sites to start playing when you’re old enough to do so.
