Release Body: Nicosia, Cyprus January 1, 2008 – Scratch
cards, which are also known as scratch offs or scratch tickets,
are small tokens or cards, usually made of cardboard with one
or more areas containing hidden information concealed by a substance
which cannot be seen through but is only revealed by being scratched
off. Scratch cards are mainly used to conceal prizes in instant
win games but can also be used to conceal Personal Identification
Numbers for telephone calling cards and other prepaid services.
Simple scratch cards require players to match a number, often
three, of the same prize amounts and if they accomplish this,
they win prizes while more sophisticated scratch cards have several
different ways of winning on one card.
The
first scratch card game tickets were created using manual randomization
techniques and in 1974, an American company produced the first
computer generated instant win lottery game. Three years later,
in 1987, a Rhode Island company received a U.S. patent for an
instant scratch-off lottery ticket. Due to their low cost and
opportunities for an instant win as opposed to having to wait
for a lottery draw, scratch cards are an immensely popular form
of games of chance. Scratch cards actually offer much better odds
of winning easy money than the regular lottery and although the
sums may be smaller than lottery prizes, any sum of easy money
won while playing scratch cards is guaranteed whereas with lottery
prizes, the sum normally depends on the total number of winners
and the size of the jackpot fund.
Online
scratch cards are the Internet version of the lottery scratch
cards bought in shops and are played by clicking on a designated
area to reveal information that is then used to determine the
prize value of the scratch card. Online scratch cards tend to
offer better odds for winning easy money than their shop-based
counterparts. Online scratch cards can be played from the comfort
of the player's own home, at any time day or night and the player
knows immediately whether they have won instant cash without having
to wait for a weekly draw.

don’t require any software to be downloaded and therefore
can be played as soon as the player registers. TreasureOnNet games
are very easy to play and offer the player great odds of winning
an instant win prize in every game.
