What the lottery retailer bond actually covers
When you sell Mississippi Lottery tickets, you collect lottery funds that belong to the corporation. Miss. Code § 27-115-59 lets the Mississippi Lottery Corporation require each retailer to post a letter of credit or a surety bond to secure those funds and your reporting obligations between remittances.
The statute caps the bond at an amount not to exceed twice the average lottery ticket sales of the retailer for the period within which the retailer must remit funds. First-time retailers are commonly bonded at $8,000 per location; once the MLC has your sales data, it adjusts the bond to track your actual volume.
The bond stands behind the funds you owe the corporation — if you fail to remit, the MLC can recover against it. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety; it is not insurance for you. Enter the amount the MLC set and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check.
