Welcome to my Lucky Day review – this will be interesting!
Is Lucky Day legit? Google Play is full of free scratchcard Apps like this now, but they also receive a large number of complaints.
Many people have left comments at the end of this post, sharing their own experience, so feel free to add yours too.
Some people claim Lucky Day is a scam and just a fake App that doesn’t pay out.
In reality, while there are real winners... But the chances of winning big are shocking, (I reveal some of the true odds further down!).
Tip – if you want to make 100’s or 1000’s of dollars per month, Apps won’t get you there – You can learn to make more here.
Can You Make Much Money With Apps?
Pretty much all of the apps I’ve reviewed online, have involved making a very small amount of money.
For example; some of the apps that I enjoy for fun, are Swagbucks Live and HQ Trivia.
But, these are just Apps where you can potentially win money from live trivia games.
Lucky Day runs along a similar vein, as this app is all about winning money too.
Except, you don’t need to answer questions to win. Nope, there is zero skill involved!
But can you actually win anything, that’s the question! Is Lucky Day the real deal?
I’ve had this app uploaded on my phone for months now – (update: since writing this, it was removed from APP store but is still available on android).
I will share with you what I have discovered so far!
What Is Lucky Day & How Does It Work?
Lucky Day is an app that you can download via Appstore or Google Play.
(Lucky Day are trying to return to Appstore at the moment….)
The idea behind this App, is that you have the opportunity to join FREE Sweepstakes, do free scratch cards, enter daily raffles and so on, with the possibility of winning cash.
Lucky Day will be supported by paying advertisers, which is how they’ll be able to give money away.
As a result, you will have to sit through some annoying Ads in order to play.
You will have a much, much higher chance of winning the Lucky Day currency – some virtual coins that you can use to join raffles and earn rewards, rather than cash.
However, you need millions of these coins to actually get anything.
For example; you need 5 MILLION coins just to get a $5 Itunes voucher.
I noticed one of the first scratchcards I did, I won $1 in real money. I imagine this happens to nearly everyone who first signs up.
You need $10 to withdraw, so you could have that $1 in your account indefinitely and not be able to take it out.
But for some people, seeing they have won $1, is enough to keep them playing on and hoping they get more.
*update: I signed up with a different email address and sure enough, did win that first $1 again. Did you win the first scratchcard when you signed up?
That was my only hint of actual cash though…… (let me know in the comments how much you have won!).
Stick with me and I will enlighten you with some of the actual odds of winning, further down in this post!

How Can You Win With Lucky Day?
Virtual Scratchcards:
You use your finger to scratch off the virtual layer on the scratchcard to reveal symbols – if you match three of the same you win.
There is always a bonus game at the end to win lucky day coins and this is what you will generally win.
Lotto:
Select 5 numbers and a lucky bonus ball to be in with the chance of winning cash, or lucky day coins. The jackpot is $100,000.
Blackjack:
There is a Blackjack game here, but it looks like you can only earn extra Lucky Day coins with this one. If you enjoy Blackjack, it’s a fun enough game.
Raffle:
Raffles range from $10 to $1000. In order to play the raffle, you need to buy tickets with any Lucky Day coins you have accumulated by playing the other games.
You can then spin a wheel to win additional tickets in the raffle.
Earning Extra Credits:
It seems like one of the most straight forward way to get to rewards, (albeit, needing to earn millions) is by earning those Lucky Day coins.
So, how can you make the most coins?
Invite Your Friends:
By inviting your firsts to join Lucky Day, you can earn 100,000 lucky day coins.
By doing….any of the games on Lucky Day:
By doing the multiple scratch cards and playing blackjack, you can usually make coins pretty quickly.
Some people have mentioned Lucky Day had slots…
I don’t know if they just don’t have them now, or if they’re not accessible to me in the UK.
By completing offers:
Lucky day has various offers online you can complete for coins.
By watching videos:
Not a great way to make coins at all, you can earn 1,000 coins for every video you view, (not a lot when you need millions – you will often get more doing a scratchcard).
Lucky Day Winners:
In the past, when I looked at recent winners in the app – I didn’t see a list of recent wins. I just saw this image below….
As you can see – it was just a list of what people recently withdrew winnings, whether by opting for a gift, gift card or cash.
a majority seemed to have one “gifts…” (didn’t state what at the time).
However, I noticed that on the APP – they do now have a winners section!!
This seems to show every time a winner cashes out.
There weren’t tonnes of huge winners, but there did seem to be a selection of people in the last few days winning anything from $50 – to $500+
With a majority seeming to win between $50- $200.
As you can see below – someone has cashed out in the last 10 hours. There appear to be some people cashing out every day.
Have you won on Lucky Day? How long were you playing for? Let me know in the comments!
What Are The Odds Of Winning With Lucky Day!?
I couldn’t find the actual information anywhere on their website, or even on the actual Apps themselves about winning odds.
A reader has informed me about some of the odds, but I’m unsure where he actually found the link to the information, so I have emailed them to confirm the details for me and I am just waiting to hear back.
*update… they never replied to me*
However, according to the information I currently have; some of the odds of winning are quite enlightening!
Here are a few odds:
LOTTO:
Chance of winning $5 – one in 20,277.82 games.
Chance of winning $50 – one in 5,461, 512.
Chance of winning the Jackpot – 1 in 175,223,510 game plays!!!!
It goes without saying, your chances of winning the Jackpot in the lotto are pathetically tiny.
You only have one in 5 and a half million chance of even winning the $50!
Scratchcards:
Odds of winning the scratchers is going to vary depending on how many people are actually playing the app.
Each year, they have a set amount of prizes to give away, in varying amounts.
They have 1,000,000 $1 prizes, (explains why everyone seems to get that initial $1 win).
You can see a list of the different prizes below.
So, there is one 10,000 scratchcard that can be won over a 12 month period.
Complaints About Lucky Day Online:
The worry here is that people have complained about not being paid by Lucky Day.
This is always a bad sign and things can tend to go down hill once the word gets out.
As well as not being paid, some people have claimed to have coins disappear, but maybe this was just an issue that sorted out.
Have you been paid recently by Lucky Day? Let me know in the comments.
On the App store, they have over 15 thousand reviews and 4.5 stars.
So, that’s not bad at all is it? It’s really good for an App like this to have maintained such a high score.
(At the time of writing, Lucky Day are taking a short break from the App Store, but will be back soon!).
They also have a decent rating via Google play.
As you can see… At the time of writing, over 45,000 people have rated and there are 4.5 stars!!
Lots of people enjoy playing this App, (even if they aren’t winning!!).
Beware: Scammers Pretending To Be Lucky Day On Social Media!
A problem people seem to be facing, is some people are being contacted by scammers who are pretending to be Lucky Day…
They send them a message an tell them they’ve won a big prize, but that they need payment upfront, like a processing fee.
If you’ve been contacted by someone claiming to be Lucky Day and you feel they’re trying to scam you, it’s best to contact Lucky Day directly here: support@luckydayappp.com
Some people also claim to have won money and then for that money to have disappeared from their account.
This may have simply been a glitch issue.
Lucky Day have been working on correcting any bugs.
There seems a shortage of people talking about winning a decent prize from Lucky Day…. so, if you won big here, please do share your winners story below!
Is Lucky Day A Scam, Or Legit Way To Win Cash Online?
Does Lucky day really pay? Well, it would seem that you can win. Even though your odds are very low, (see the comments for some examples).
I don’t think Lucky Day is a scam, from what I can see they have paid out to many winners.
I do think the chances of winning anything are very slim though, (crazy slim in the case of the bigger prizes!).
Buy hey, people play the lottery every day and the chances of winning that are ridiculous too. Right?
While the odds of winning for low… ultimately, this app is completely free to use.
So, if you enjoy it, there’s no harm in it.
While you can earn rewards by collecting their coins too, you need millions before you can even redeem a $5 voucher!!!
Although, if you play regularly, you can earn thousands and thousands of Lucky Day coins very easily.
So, it may not take all that long to make millions and cash out.
If you’re looking for a way to make some extra money online however, there are better ways to earn $5.
All being said, if you enjoy doing scratchcards, blackjack, or lotto…without splashing out on real cash… then you may still enjoy this app.
There is no doubt that tens of thousands of people online enjoy this app, some of the direct reviews online demonstrate this.
What About Making Money Without Apps… A Long Term Plan?
If you have been searching the app-store for ways that you can make real money, you will be disappointed!
While I wrote a post about 14 apps that can make you money….
They’re basically pocket change opportunities for the most part though.
As I mentioned at the start of this post, a majority of phone App opportunities there surround saving money, or sometimes winning money…
But as of yet, not real earning opportunities!
In order to make a part-time, or even full time income online, it will take more time and effort…
BUT, the great thing is, it’s possible to make money from things you’re already interested in.
For example; if you were interested in lotto, make money apps, saving money, or online casinos…
There is a way you could make money from all those interests and and many others, in a multitude of ways.
Growing an online business is not something that relies on luck – it takes real work, but it is worth it in the long run.
How do you do it? You can start learning here – it’s a training platform, where I started. The best part is, you can start for free.
That concludes my Lucky Day App review for today – but feel free to leave a comment, if you have anything to share!

To my knowledge these are the official odds of winning the biggest jackpots on any of the scratchers and lottery on the lucky day app.
lottery winnings chance
1:175,223,510 per games played
and the max winnings is 100,000
biggest scratchers winnings chance
1 winner will win 10,000
odds of winning this is number of game players , total of entries for each daily promotion period and percentage of scratcher cards claimed by players.

Nat says
This is really interesting Dwight thank you…. 1:175,223,510!!! That’s some number. I’m going to look into this more and
add it to my post as well. Thanks for the info.
Jessica Baiza says
I’ve been playing the app for just about a month now and I have a total of $6.00. I do know the limit is 10$to cash out. I’m never this lucky. And from what I’ve read a lot of citizens got stuck. So I haven’t had any problems. Hope there will be no problems and I’ll just luckily claim the 10$.
Nat says
Hi Jessica – I hope so too. Yes, lots of people seem to have got stuck prior to reaching the $10. $6 seems good for a month of playing, from what I’ve seen. Let us know if you manage to cash out and reach the $10 threshold! Good luck!
Jason says
Hey Nat just wanted to say – I think it’s awesome you took your turn to write this out and as well respond to everyone’s comments. That really is wonderful to observe. Keep on being great!
Nat says
Hi Jason,
That’s very kind of you to say, thank you very much indeed!
Have a great day,
Nat
Gary D Coleman says
Hi Nat,
Yea I was contacted just today regarding winning a large prize. Fortunately for me I was skeptical from the very beginning but I went ahead and played it off that it would be a good thing for me. I laid out my whole sad story to keep the guy talking. I have all the chat messages from the Lucky Day App. I took screenshots of the whole conversation if you want to have them. I guess I could repost those messages here for all to see. I mean what do you think I should do in a case like this.
Nat says
Hi Gary – you were contacted actually via LuckyDay? How much did you win? I’ve only seen fake winning messages sent via fake accounts on social media, (not LuckyDay).Or do you mean, you were contacted via social media about a prize and then contacted LuckyDay directly? …What did they have to say about it? I’d love to hear the story, if you don’t mind sharing. People have been scammed via these people on Instagram and social media, I’m just hoping people Google this and find this post prior to handing over any money. Thanks for sharing!
Lucky Day says
Hi Gary! So sorry to hear this! These accounts are not associated with Lucky Day. We will never ask you for personal information or payment. Our official social media accounts are @luckydayapp. Thank you for letting us know. We’ll report this right away to have the account removed! Please email us at support@luckydayapp.com so we can gather details.
Lisa Denny says
I’ve been playing Lucky App for about 2 months and have accumulated $9 and almost 2million points. You have to have $10 to cash out to PayPal. The first few weeks, I would win $.50, sometimes $.25, and even $1.00 a couple of times, and won at least 3-4x a week. Now that I’m close to $10 though, I haven’t won any cash amounts in over 2 weeks….. 🙁
Nat says
Hey Lisa…. That’s quite a while now. It seems like a common thing, from what people say. Although, the odds of winning anything are pretty slim, so it seems you’ve done well to even get this far! Let us know when you reach that $10! Thanks, Nat
Andrew says
I’ve been playing for a week. Up to 2.25, spent a couple hundred thousand tokens on raffles so far.
Nat says
Thanks for sharing!
Roger says
I just wanted to thank you for your detailed review on this app. I’ve been laying 2 to 3 times a day for about 3 weeks straight now. You are correct about the instant $1 winnings as I have tested it with other ones but so far I am at $8.75 and 1.5 million coins. Every bit of the $8.75 was won on the bonus section of the scratchers but I have actually won most my coins matching 1 or 2 numbers in the lotto. I don’t remember exactly which one it was (how many numbers I matched) but I actually won 750,000 coins all at once. At first was using them for the daily raffles but after having over 100 tickets multiple times and not winning I have decided to save those and redeem them at some point. Fingers are crossed to actually see if I ever hit the $10 mark but from my personal experience (which is all I can speak of) there is an actual chance of winning money (not much mind you) so if you don’t mind putting a little time in I would definitely recommend giving this app a try but as you have mentioned NEVER send personal info or money. I even recommend setting up a separate email and PayPal to use for things like this with the bare minimal information given. As an online retailer I do want to make something known to people though about PayPal, some how, not sure exactly how but it’s possible for scammers to make “pending” deposits show up in your PayPal account and then request that “processing fee” and then that deposit will disappear. Best thing I recommend is before releasing any personal information transfer any “winnings” from your PayPal to an attached debit card (don’t attach your bank account to your separate PayPal, use either the card you can get with PayPal or you can even get a PayPal prepaid Mastercard and attach it and transfers funds immediately from PayPal) and then pull that money out via atm. Once you have the cash in hand you know it’s real otherwise it’s nothing but bait and switch. Sorry for the long comment harry wanted to contribute.
Nat says
Hey Roger,
Thanks very much for contributing… Seems like you’re almost at that magical $9 when people are getting stuck. I hope you manage to reach the $10 threshold soon! Good advice about not giving any information… Really important anywhere outside Lucky Day as well, as there are definitely scammers operating and pretending to be them on social media. Definitely a good idea to have a completely separate PayPal account.. .which could be used for other Apps and similar sites as well. Let us know if you reach the $10! Thanks Roger!
Roger says
I will for sure let you know when you able to cash out and how that goes
Nat says
Thanks Roger!
Roger says
I just wanted to stop back in and let everyone know that I reached $10.75 in cash today and am at $3.4 million in coins. I will admit that I have stopped playing it as much and sometimes just log in to get the daily bonus but I just cashed out and sent the money to my PayPal. It stated it could take between 5 and 10 days so I will let everyone know if/ when those funds arrive.
Nat says
Hey Roger!
Thanks for letting everyone know. Fingers crossed, you get your money soon! Look forward to hearing that you’ve got it :). Nat
Paul Kenyon says
Hi, Nat and everyone reading. I installed the Lucky Day app about 3 weeks ago. I do play every day and have very reached just over four million in coins and $9.25 in cash from the bonus part of scratchers. I generally won some cash nearly every day, but I’ve been stuck at $9.25 for over a week now. From what I’ve been reading, it seems to be happening to many. I’ll let ya know if I ever cash out. You know how these apps can be….. Ya just never know. I’m very skeptical of most “make money” apps and sites, but there are some where you CAN make money with some dedicated tome. I’d suggest you check iPoll surveys. I’ve seen a ton of complaints about them, but I’ve had $25 or more posted to my PayPal account 28 times since I joined in March of 2017 for a total of $766.45!!! iPoll is a GREAT site to make extra money. I use what I make solely for coin collecting. Would love to see your take on them, Nat! Thanks for the great review on Lucky Day. I don’t hold much faith in them.
Nat says
Hi Paul, thanks a lot for stopping by and contributing. Yes, it’s really common to get stuck on the $9-something… Can you come back and let everyone know if you reach threshold for cashing out? It’s funny you mention Ipoll because I just recently reviewed the ipoll app and I really like it as well. I wasn’t that impressed when I just checked out the main site, but I like the main App and the “missions,” that make you extra money. They do have plenty of bad feedback, but the App is one of the better ones I’ve seen recently. Good luck with Lucky Day as well!
Ching says
I have been playing Lucky Day since the past two months and only able to collect only $5.75 so far. When I look at the recent winners list and those who cashed out, they are the same people or person from the week before. I wonder how they are winning the $200 scratchers. Maybe its just a bad luck on my part. I’m hoping to win something big soon.
Nat says
Hey Ching, thanks for your comment. That’s interesting what you say about the same winners… and definitely unusual if that’s the case. Maybe they are literally playing lucky day 24/7!?! It would be good to hear from some of these bigger winners, (as yet I haven’t). Good luck and come back and let us know if you win anything big, or if you manage to cash-out soon! Nat
Ching says
Hi there.. Been playing for anothr month since my last comment and together it has been 4 months now.. Stuck at $7.75.Reading the few latest comments I do believe that it os only paying the players from U.S. I exchange my tokens for 200 Raffle tickets so to see.. But now I am truly certain that it is a waste of time.. Me being from India, there is not a single chance of winning anything big let alone $10.
Nat says
Hi there, I really don’t know Ching, but would love to hear if you do manage to make the $10 at least. Just heard from someone else who is still waiting for their $1000 cashout and having no response from Luckyday…. 🙁 Let us know if you do win anything! Nat
Lucky Day says
Hi Ching! We have 30,000 winners each week from around the world! We’re working on featuring all of our international winners soon! We’ve given out more than $5 million in prizes. The best way to improve your chances is to keep playing! Feel free to email us at support@luckydayapp.com .
Larry phariss says
Hello, great work on your review of the app. I have much appreciation for people who take the time to really research the information they are posting about. I have been playing for about a month and a half and have been stuck at $9 cash for most of that time, $3 75 being won the first day and the rest over the following week. I have already cashed in 3 mil coins for a “prize” and have been waiting for it for about 3 weeks now. I’m back up to 2867420 coins now and will try again to cash them in to see what happens. On a side note I have been playing another app called very dice for almost two years. Basically the same thing, roll dice to accumulate points that you can cash in for prizes and gift cards. everything I have cashed in on I have received in a reasonable amount of time, given that most are shipped from China, but now they are shipping from Amazon. Point is, I was noticing the other day that just about all of the ” prize items” are identical on both apps, with most sharing the same picture and description format. Anyway, keep up the great work.
Nat says
Hi there,
Thanks very much, I appreciate you taking the time to comment. I’ve not heard of very dice! I will have to check it out, but that’s interesting what you say about having the same prize items. So, perhaps the same people are behind both apps. 3 weeks is a long time to wait for a prize, I have heard from other people saying similar things. But it’s quite unusual you winning the over $3 on the first day – you get some people who have played for years and seemingly not won anything. I’ve only won $1 lol, (which I think everyone does). Anyway, do let us know if you reach the elusive cash out amount! Thanks, Nat
