Section 65IAC3-2-1. Certificate of authority required

   (a) A person must hold a valid certificate of authority issued by the commission in order to enter into a contract as a retailer of lottery products in any capacity.

  (b) A certificate of authority is a revocable privilege and not a legal right. A certificate of authority issued by the commission does not entitle a person to enter into a contract to sell lottery products.

  (c) No person shall sell lottery products without:

(1) a certificate of authority issued by the commission; and

(2) an executed written retailer contract between the person and the commission;

where neither has been terminated, suspended, cancelled, or revoked.

  (d) Nothing in this title shall preclude the commission from:

(1) selling lottery products directly to the public; or

(2) obtaining a concession to sell lottery products on the premises of another.
