Question

Do I need special software to design Scratch Off Cards?

Answer

Not at all. You can design scratch-off cards in any standard design program, or in a browser-based online editor. There is no special software required.

  • Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Canva all work well.
  • Clearly mark the scratch-off area as its own layer or spot so the coating lands in the right place.
  • Keep the hidden content fully inside that panel.
  • Export a print-ready PDF in CMYK at 300 DPI, with bleed included.
