Golden Ticket is a Common Economy Joker that gives $4 for every scoring Gold Card ({{money|3}} if this card is held in hand at end of round Gold Card.png), effectively turning them into more powerful Gold Seal (Earn {{money|3}} when this card is played and scores Gold Seal.png) cards.

For this Joker's unlock requirement's "5 card hand", the hand's 5 cards do not need to score. For example, the player can unlock this Joker by playing a High Card hand of one scoring card with four non-scoring cards. All cards do need to be gold cards before any joker effects, so Golden Ticket will not unlock if one or more of the cards was changed to gold by Midas Mask (All played {{hl|orange|face}} cards become [[Gold Cards|{{hl|orange|Gold}}]] cards when scored Uncommon Effect On Played Midas_Mask.png).

• The Zodiac Deck ( Start run with {{V|Tarot Merchant|class=hl-purple}}, {{V|Planet Merchant|class=hl-cyan}}, and {{V|Overstock|class=hl-orange}} Win a run with any [[Decks|deck]] on the {{Stake|Red}} difficulty or harder Zodiac Deck.png) works best with Golden Ticket thanks to its increased Tarot card frequency, allowing Gold card conversion more frequent.

• Playing 5-card hand such as Flush or Full House with as many Gold cards as possible will ensure maximum income.

• "On scored" retrigger Jokers will reactivate Golden Ticket's effect. So Hanging Chad (Retrigger {{hl|orange|first}} played card used in scoring {{hl|orange|2}} additional times Beat a Boss Blind with a {{ph|High Card}} Common Retrigger On Scored Hanging Chad.png), Dusk (Retrigger all played cards in {{hl|orange|final hand}} of the round Uncommon Retrigger On Scored Dusk.png), and Seltzer (Retrigger all cards played for the next {{hl|orange|10}} hands Uncommon Retrigger On Scored Seltzer.png) are great with this Joker. Hack (Retrigger each played {{hl|orange|2}}, {{hl|orange|3}}, {{hl|orange|4}}, or {{hl|orange|5}} Uncommon Retrigger On Scored Hack.png) and Sock and Buskin (Retrigger all played {{hl|orange|face}} cards Play a total of {{hl|orange|300}} face cards Uncommon Retrigger On Scored Sock and Buskin.png) can also be great if the Gold cards have the relevant ranks.

• Midas Mask (All played {{hl|orange|face}} cards become [[Gold Cards|{{hl|orange|Gold}}]] cards when scored Uncommon Effect On Played Midas_Mask.png) turns all Face cards into Gold cards when scored. It will be even stronger if paired with Pareidolia (All cards are considered {{hl|orange|face}} cards Uncommon Effect N/A (Passive) Pareidolia.png), as all cards now can be converted into Gold cards.
• Bull ({{Chips|+2}} for each {{$|1}} you have <br> {{currently|{{chips|+0}}}} Uncommon Chips Independent Bull.png) and Bootstraps ({{Mult|+2}} for every {{Money|5}} you have <br> {{Currently|{{Mult|+0}}}} Have at least {{hl|orange|2}} {{hl|edition|Polychrome}} Jokers at the same time. Uncommon Additive Mult Independent Bootstraps.png) benefit from the high money making capabilities of this joker.

• A Gold Seal (Earn {{money|3}} when this card is played and scores Gold Seal.png) will earn $3 when scored, giving $7 total per Gold Card.
• A Red Seal (Retrigger this card {{hl|orange|1}} time Red Seal.png) will retrigger Golden Ticket, giving $8 per Gold Card.

• The Devil (Enhances {{hl|orange|1}} selected card into a [[Card Modifiers|{{hl|orange|Gold Card}}]] Available from start. Tarot The Devil.png) can make more Gold cards.
• Death (Select {{hl|orange|2}} cards, convert the {{hl|orange|left}} card into the {{hl|orange|right}} card<br>{{hl|gray|(Drag to rearrange)}} Available from start. Tarot Death.png) can turn some cards into Gold cards.
• The Hanged Man (Destroys up to {{hl|orange|2}} selected cards Available from start. Tarot The Hanged Man.png) can remove non-Gold cards.
• Deja Vu (Add a [[Red Seal|{{hl|red|Red Seal}}]] to {{hl|orange|1}} selected card in your hand Available from start. Spectral Deja Vu.png) can apply Red Seals onto Gold cards allowing Golden Ticket to generate more money.

• Vampire (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.1}} per scoring {{hl|orange|Enhanced card}} played, removes card {{hl|orange|Enhancement}} <br> {{Currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Mixed Vampire.png) has anti-synergy, as the Gold Enhancement gets removed before it can score. However if the player is also using Midas Mask (All played {{hl|orange|face}} cards become [[Gold Cards|{{hl|orange|Gold}}]] cards when scored Uncommon Effect On Played Midas_Mask.png) this becomes a non-issue.
  • This innately applies to the Bram Poker ( ) as it starts with an Eternal Vampire ().
• Vagabond (Create a [[Tarot Cards|{{hl|purple|Tarot}}]] card if hand is played with {{Money|4}} or less Rare Effect Independent Vagabond.png) can have anti-synergy, as having more than $4 during a round will disable its effect. It may be better to keep Gold Enhancement Cards in hand and let them trigger when the round ends.
• Mime (Retrigger all card {{hl|orange|held in hand}} abilities Uncommon Retrigger On Held Mime.png) has slight anti-synergy, since a Gold Card held in hand with Mime will give $6, more than what Golden Ticket gives for playing Gold Cards.

• The numbers 16180339 used in the artwork are the first digits of the Golden ratio, perhaps because of the shared "golden" thread.
• This Joker is part of a series, along with Stone Joker (Gives {{Chips|+25}} for each [[Stone Card|{{hl|orange|Stone Card}}]] in your {{hl|orange|full deck}} <br> {{Currently|{{Chips|+0}}}} Uncommon Chips Independent Stone Joker.png), Steel Joker (Gives {{xmult|0.2}} for each [[Steel Cards|{{hl|orange|Steel Card}}]] in your {{hl|orange|full deck}} <br> {{currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Steel Joker.png), Glass Joker (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.75}} for every [[Glass_Cards|{{hl|orange|Glass Card}}]] that is destroyed <br> {{currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Have at least {{hl|orange|5}} [[Glass_Cards|{{hl|orange|Glass Cards}}]] in your deck Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Independent Glass Joker.png) and Lucky Cat (This Joker gains {{xmult|0.25}} every time a [[Lucky Cards|{{hl|orange|Lucky}}]] card {{hl|green|successfully}} triggers <br> {{Currently|{{xmult|1}}}} Uncommon Multiplicative Mult Mixed Lucky Cat.png), where the Joker only appears once players have at least one card with the relevant enhancement in their deck. Interestingly, Golden Ticket is the only Common Joker in this list.
• This Joker has a smaller width than standard Joker cards when face up. However, when it is flipped face-down, it uses the same standard size of card back as the rest. The other Joker with this similar property is Business Card (Played {{hl|orange|face}} cards have a {{hl|green|1 in 2}} chance to give {{Money|2}} when scored Common Economy On Scored Business_Card.png).
