About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the lottery retailer bond actually covers

Oregon retailers sell Lottery tickets under a contract with the Oregon State Lottery (ORS chapter 461). The proceeds from ticket sales belong to the Lottery, and the director can require a bond or irrevocable letter of credit from a retailer as a financial guarantee before issuing or renewing the retailer contract.

The bond is a payment guarantee: it secures the ticket proceeds the retailer owes the Lottery. The amount is set by the Lottery under its administrative rules — generally based on expected sales volume and the applicant's financial responsibility — so there is no single statewide figure.

Not every retailer is bonded; the Lottery typically requires it when an applicant may not meet its financial-responsibility standards. If the retailer fails to remit proceeds, the Lottery can recover against the bond, and if the surety pays, the retailer repays the surety. We issue your required amount at a flat 3% with no credit check.

ORS chapter 461 (Oregon State Lottery)Under ORS chapter 461 and the Oregon State Lottery Commission’s administrative rules, the Lottery director may require a bond or irrevocable letter of credit from a lottery game retailer in an amount specified by rule, as a financial guarantee for ticket proceeds owed the Lottery. The amount is set by the Lottery from expected sales and financial responsibility — confirm the figure on your Lottery notice.
