The Mississippi Lottery Law was created with the approval of Senate Bill 2001 in 2018. The bill authorizes the creation of a Mississippi State Lottery, which is regulated by the Mississippi Lottery Corporation.

Lottery retailers can earn commission on ticket sales and large winnings, with an added benefit of increased customer traffic and increased sales of other items in their stores. Those who wish to become lottery retailers must meet certain requirements and be approved by the Corporation. Requirements include compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and obtaining a letter of credit or a surety bond.

The bond amount is based on an estimate of average ticket sales. A surety bond guarantees that the lottery retailer will pay the state the money from ticket sales.
