How much Michigan spends on scratch-offs each year

These numbers come from the Michiganlottery's own yearly reports. "FY" means fiscal year, the lottery's budget year. "Per person" is scratch-off sales divided by everyone who lives in the state (10,077,761 people), not just people who play. Population is from the U.S. Census Bureau, Population Estimates Program (Vintage 2025).

FY2024$2.32B$4.76B48.7%$230$1.25B

FY2019$1.66B$3.88B42.6%$164$1.07B

Scratch-off sales went up 36.8% over FY2019 to FY2025. That doesn't account for inflation, and some of the change comes from tickets getting more expensive, not from people buying more of them.

Sources for this table

Michigan runs a fiscal year ending September 30. Total sales is the "total lottery ticket sales" product line, not the larger total-operating-revenues figure that adds charitable gaming. Michigan books its online instant games as net win, meaning sales minus prizes, so its total is not comparable to states that book online play at gross handle. The transfer column is the School Aid Fund payment alone, which is smaller than Michigan's total disbursements to all funds.

What Michigan players bought in FY2025

Sales for every game in the Michigan lottery's FY2025report, biggest first. "Share" is each game's part of the total. Every lottery counts online sales its own way, so we note how each one is counted next to the number. Don’t compare it directly with store sales.

How much top-prize money is still out there in Michigan?

How much does Michigan sell in scratch-off tickets?

Michigan sold $2.3B in scratch-off tickets in FY2025. That was 49.5% of all its lottery sales, or about $225 for every person in the state. These numbers come from Michigan Lottery FY2025 ACFR (year ended September 30, 2025).

Where these numbers come from
Game counts, odds, payouts, and prizes left come from the Michiganlottery's own website, and we check it every day. For top prizes, we only count games with a top prize of $10,000or more. A game with a $100 top prize can have hundreds of thousands of them, and that would throw off the totals. Our monthly claim counts start in March 2026. We copy sales numbers by hand from each yearly report, and every row links to where it came from. If the lottery doesn't publish a number, we show a dash instead of guessing.
