About Idaho Cash
Idaho Cash plays are sold in pairs: $1 buys two, and you pick the numbers on both, so a wheel costs 50¢ a line. A wheel with an odd number of lines leaves one play to spare.
Below the jackpot, prizes are fixed: $200 for four numbers and $5 for three, and two numbers win a free ticket. The jackpot starts at $20,000 and is paid in cash.
What Idaho Cash wheels cost
Each of these wheels guarantees a three-number match ($5) whenever at least three of the winning numbers are among the ones you mark. The more numbers you mark, the more often that happens, and the more tickets it takes.
| Numbers you mark | Tickets | Cost per draw | Cost per week | How often the guarantee comes into play |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 of 45 | 8 | $4 | $28 | 1 in 31 draws, about once every 4 weeks |
| 10 of 45 | 17 | $9 | $63 | 1 in 15 draws, about once every 2 weeks |
| 12 of 45 | 29 | $15 | $105 | 1 in 9.2 draws, about once a week or more |
| 15 of 45 | 55 | $28 | $196 | 1 in 5.1 draws, about once a week or more |
| 18 of 45 | 94 | $47 | $329 | 1 in 3.2 draws, about once a week or more |
The cost per week covers all 7 draws a week. The tool above also has cheaper wheels with weaker guarantees, and bigger ones that guarantee four or five numbers.

All other prizes are fixed, and two numbers win a free ticket. $1 buys two plays, and you choose the numbers on both. Odds here are per play; the Lottery quotes them per $1.

Can a wheel improve your odds?
No. Each line still has the same 1 in 1,221,759 chance at the top prize and returns about $0.15 in other prizes on average, however you choose its numbers. What a wheel changes is how your wins are grouped: random tickets can all miss even when the draw lands on your numbers, and a wheel makes sure at least one ticket catches them. How lottery wheels work.
Questions
How many numbers should I mark?
As many as your budget allows. In Idaho Cash, going from 8 to 18 numbers takes the cost from $4 to $47 a draw, and the three-number guarantee from 1 in 31 draws to 1 in 3.2. Lottery pools can afford the bigger wheels, which is where wheels make the most sense.
Is there a limit on how much I can play?
Yes. Since July 2026, Idaho caps purchases at $5,000 per person in 24 hours. Every wheel here is far below that.
Can I play online?
No. Idaho Lottery tickets are sold only in stores.
