No multiplier built into these prizes
Every amount on this page is what Keno Atlantic pays on a straight $1 play, with nothing added on. The TAG add-on is a separate game with its own prizes and is not included here.
Wager Amounts and How Prizes Scale
Every prize on this page is quoted per $1 played. Keno Atlantic accepts wagers of $1, $2, $5 or $10 per draw, and prizes scale straight up with the amount you bet: a $2 play pays double the amounts shown, a $5 play pays five times, and so on. That means the $250,000 top prize on a $1 10 spot play is worth $1,250,000 on a $5 play.

Source: Atlantic Lottery Corporation official Keno Atlantic game conditions (alc.ca). Keno Atlantic draws 20 numbers from a field of 1 to 70 (not 80), so the odds differ from standard keno. Prizes are shown per $1 played; the 10-spot top prize is $250,000. The TAG add-on is a separate game and is not modeled. Always verify the current prize chart with the Atlantic Lottery Corporation before you play.
How Keno Atlantic Compares to the Average Paytable
Keno prizes are not the same everywhere. This table puts the Keno Atlantic top prize for each spot count next to the other 2 Canadian 70-number keno games we track. The comparison figure is the median rather than the mean, so one unusually rich schedule cannot drag it out of shape.
| Spots | Keno Atlantic | Typical Game | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 spots | $7 | $7 | In line with the rest |
| 3 spots | $25 | $25 | In line with the rest |
| 4 spots | $75 | $100 | 25% below typical |
| 5 spots | $250 | $250 | In line with the rest |
| 6 spots | $1,000 | $1,000 | In line with the rest |
| 7 spots | $5,000 | $5,000 | In line with the rest |
| 8 spots | $25,000 | $25,000 | In line with the rest |
| 9 spots | $50,000 | $50,000 | In line with the rest |
| 10 spots | $250,000 | $225,000 | 11% above typical |
Keno Atlantic lands in the middle: 1 spot count above the typical top prize, 1 below, and 7 in line with it. Top prizes are only half the picture, though. Weighing every prize by its chance of landing, a $1 Keno Atlantic ticket returns about 53.8% averaged across all spot counts, well ahead of the 48.2% typical for the comparison group. Either way the paytable is fixed, so no pick pattern and no spot count turns keno into a positive bet.

Weighing every prize by its chance of landing, the 7 spot game returns the most on Keno Atlantic, about 56.4% of a $1 play over the long run, against roughly 53.8% averaged across all spot counts.
