Business owners in Pennsylvania who wish to sell state lottery tickets typically need to secure this bond. This often includes convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores, and newsstands. Requirements can vary, so applicants should verify their specific bonding needs with the Pennsylvania Lottery.

Why is it required?
