Thank you for your interest in becoming a West Virginia Lottery retailer. The West Virginia Lottery has generated more than $8.5 Billion to public education, seniors and tourism since the first ticket was sold in 1986 and none of that would be possible without our retailers.
Why should I sell instant and online lottery products?
West Virginia Lottery retailers receive a 7% commission and a 1% cashing and selling bonus.
Lottery retailers who sell a winning Draw game ticket have the potential to win an incentive of up to $100,000!
It is an excellent form of advertising for your business!
Your efforts support SENIORS, EDUCATION AND TOURISM in the great state of West Virginia.
Why should I become a limited video lottery retailer?
Limited Video Lottery retailers have a high revenue potential.

Revenue generated helps support your local community with distributions.
In West Virginia, any business wishing to sell traditional lottery, host video lottery machines, or support any other type of Lottery element must have a license through the WVL Licensing department.

The Lottery is always looking for new retailers with locations that have high potential for strong sales, a good customer base, and can accommodate our equipment.
