What the lottery agent bond actually covers
New Hampshire's state lottery is run by the Lottery Commission under RSA 284, and the retailers who sell tickets are licensed as lottery sales agents. A retailer collects lottery proceeds that belong to the state, so the Commission protects those funds — and a surety bond is one of the tools it uses.
The bond is required mainly when a retailer does not meet the Commission's creditworthiness standard. Many retailers with strong credit are never bonded; the bond steps in as security for the retailer whose credit doesn't satisfy the Commission, guaranteeing the lottery proceeds are remitted.
The amount is set by the Lottery Commission as part of licensing — there's no single fixed statutory figure. It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Enter the amount the Commission set and your price, from $100, appears at the application — the application collects no credit information.
