What it is and who needs it.
What the lottery retailer bond actually covers
The Missouri State Lottery is administered by the Lottery Commission under Chapter 313, RSMo. A licensed lottery game retailer sells tickets and collects proceeds that belong to the state — so under RSMo 313.255, the Commission may require every retailer to post a bond, bonding fee, or letter of credit in the amount it sets.
The bond is a financial guarantee that the retailer will account for and remit the lottery proceeds it collects, and otherwise comply with the lottery laws and the Commission’s rules. If a retailer keeps or fails to remit ticket money, the Commission can recover against the bond.
Retailers approved for the Commission’s self-bonding program may not need a surety bond at all; those who don’t qualify commonly post a $30,000 bond per terminal location. The exact figure is set by the Commission — enter it at the application, where pricing is 2% of your bond amount, $100 minimum. The application collects no credit information.
