Beneficiary Information
Since 1995, following legislative action, Montana Lottery proceeds
have gone to the state's General Fund. The General Fund provides money
for state programs which do not have dedicated revenue sources, such
as education, health, and public safety, to name a few.
Retailer Bonus Structure
Each retailer is entitled to a base commission of 5% of the face
value of scratch tickets activated and not returned. Retailers who
sell terminal issued tickets are entitled to a 5% commission of the
face value of terminal issued tickets printed. However, to further the
sale of lottery products, the lottery commission may adopt rules
providing additional commissions to sales agents based on incremental
sales.
Tax Information
For U.S. citizens furnishing Social Security numbers, we are
required by law to withhold 10% state tax and 25% federal tax from any
prize more than $5,000. Other scenarios apply for non-residents or
those without a social security number.
