How do I become an agent?
If you are interested in becoming an agent, contact the Ohio
Lottery Regional office and request an application packet.
The Lottery Commission requires you to complete the application,
consent to a background check and show proof of a $5,000 bond.
The license fee is $25.00.
In most cases, you will be required to sell instant tickets
for at least six (6) months before you can apply for a license
to sell online lottery tickets. Notify your lottery sales representative
who will provide you with the application and assist you with
its completion.
The Lottery Commission will distribute the online lottery
machines to approved applicants based on total instant ticket
sales. Therefore, it is important to note that you may be approved
to receive an online terminal but because of low instant ticket
sales, a machine will not be given to you until first offered
to those applicants with higher instant ticket sales.
