Lottery Licensing is a way of fund raising for eligible organizations which in turn, is a benefit to the community.
In the Province of Ontario, we must follow lottery licensing requirements set out in the Criminal Code of Canada and the policies of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario.
Types of Lotteries
We are limited to licensing certain types of lottery activities. The following is a list of some types of lotteries we can license:
- Raffles with prizes up to $50,000
- Bingos with a prize board of up to $5,500
- Break Open Tickets
Other types of lottery licenses are issued by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO).
