What the lottery bond actually covers
Iowa lottery retailers are licensed by the Iowa Lottery Authority under Iowa Code chapter 99G. Section 99G.26 gives the Authority the power — but not an automatic requirement — to make a retailer post an appropriate bond before receiving a license.
The bond protects the public and the Authority: it stands behind the retailer's duty to remit lottery proceeds owed to the Authority and to comply with the lottery laws, so the state is covered if a retailer commits fraud or fails to remit funds.
Because the statute names no minimum or maximum, the amount is whatever the Authority sets for your situation — often tied to your sales volume or settlement risk. Enter that figure and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check.
