How to play
Each game reveals tickets in a live NextLife Competitions competition. The result is fixed when the ticket is issued; revealing it never changes it. Odds, prizes still available and the free postal route are listed for every game.
Scratch & Reveal
Scratch to reveal · £1,000 Instant Cash Drop
Scratch the panel to see the result your ticket already holds.
How it works

- Pay from your NextLife Competitions wallet. There is no checkout page.
- Scratch the panel, or press Reveal result.
- Reveal each ticket when you are ready. Nothing is revealed for you, and you can come back to a ticket later.
