Verdict up front: a reviewer reached a $1,000 withdrawal here. To release it she had to play twenty more minutes — except the timer did not count free spins, and did not count the time she spent watching adverts. It took close to an hour. The money then entered a queue advertised at up to 30 business days.
Scratch: Eazy To Win is published by TaSharE Development. On the day we checked it showed 4.0 stars from 7,080 reviews and 100,000+ downloads, with ads. Google rates it Everyone 10+ with Gambling Themes.
The description mentions no money at all
From the store listing
“Welcome to Scratch: Eazy To Win, the satisfying scratch-off adventure where luck meets simple, relaxing fun… Cumulative bonus — open a certain number of scratch cards in total to unlock extra rewards. The more you scratch, the more you earn!… designed for quick, joyful moments — no complicated rules, just pure scratch-and-win excitement.”
“No complicated rules.” There is no threshold in this description, no currency, no payout method, no processing time, and no mention of the extra play time or the advert quota that reviewers describe. Every rule that matters is invisible until you are inside.
The timer that does not count

What releasing $1,000 required
“Same story as other players. Made the $1000 withdrawal. I had to play an additional 20 min, but it was really close to an hour because the timer did not count time in ‘free spins’ and it did not count the time you spent watching ads. Now my $1000 is in the infamous queue where it can take up to 30 BUSINESS DAYS to process.”
Cindy Owens, 3 July 2026, hit the same wall on the advert quota:
“I’m supposed to watch 5 videos to complete requirements to get my money you owe me for playing. I’ve watched over 15… yet NONE but 1 has been credited. The loading of ad failed BS message is getting old. I watched the ads, so obviously that message shouldn’t come up.”
Fifteen adverts watched, one counted. Whether that is a fault or a setting, the effect is the same: the requirement is not five, it is however many the app decides not to credit.
Thirty business days, and then?
Ken Summers, 4 September 2026, has been counting:
A reviewer waiting out the queue
“Seems like a total scam. Was originally advertised as ‘no ads’, which I figured was a lie. Been in the 7-30 business day waiting period for around 2 weeks so far. Just keeping it till that 30 days is up to see if anything happens. DO NOT DOWNLOAD. IT’S A TRAP.”
Edit: “I am pretty sure I am over that ‘30 business days’ by now, but I kinda lost track since it’s been so long. Still no payout. IF ANYONE HAS ACTUALLY GOTTEN ANY PAYOUTS PLEASE COMMENT ON HERE HOW LONG IT TOOK!”
His closing question is the one worth noting. He is asking, publicly, on a listing with 7,080 reviews, whether anybody has been paid and how long it took. Nobody has answered him.
Why the delay is the mechanism
Every app in this series blocks the exit differently. The threshold triples in Scratch And Win — 2025. The balance is erased at the limit in Spin To Win Earn Money. A 36-piece set never completes in Fun in Scratch.
Here the block is time, and time is the cheapest of all. Nothing is refused, so there is nothing to dispute. The user keeps the app installed to protect the claim, keeps opening it, and keeps watching adverts while the clock runs. The waiting period is not an obstacle to the business model. It is the business model.
What to check before you chase a payout
- Write down the date you requested it. Six weeks is designed to be lost track of — Ken lost track, and says so.
- Count the adverts you watch against the number credited. If they do not match, the requirement has no ceiling.
- Check what the play timer excludes. If free spins and advert time do not count, the stated twenty minutes is not twenty minutes.
- Search the reviews for anyone confirming a completed payout. On this listing, nobody has.
If your payout is sitting in a processing queue
Note the exact date you requested it and screenshot the status — that date is the only thing that makes a stalled queue provable. Do not keep watching adverts or playing to “help it along”; that is what the delay is for. If a deadline passes, treat the balance as lost rather than starting again. Report the listing to Google Play using “Flag as inappropriate”, and if money left your account at any stage, report it at IC3.gov — reporting is free, and no legitimate payment needs six weeks and an advert quota.
