PURPOSE: The purpose of this rule is to define alternative distribution channels. (l) The lottery commission reserves the right to sell wagers through alternative distribution channels in order to ensure that the Missouri Lottery has the necessary products to sustain revenue growth and to remain competitive. These channels may be used to distribute lottery games, products, or promotions. Rules will be developed and established per channel and will adhere to existing rules of that particular game, product, or promotion. The lottery will report and settle retailer transactions in the same manner as the traditional retail distribution channel.
