Yes — Texas scratch tickets and Texas scratch-offs are the same thing: a paper lottery ticket you scratch to reveal whether it wins. The Texas Lottery lists them under "Scratch Tickets" on its own site. "Scratch Tickets" is simply what most players in Texas call them, while "scratch-off" and "scratch ticket" are the terms used in other states. Every game ranked on this page is the same physical ticket, whichever name you use for it.

Cowboys, a $5 Texas scratch-off, was released on Aug 17, 2026 by the Texas Lottery.
