A bill for an act relating to the purchase of lottery shares and tickets by a courier service.

SSB 3093 allows courier services to legally purchase, store, and deliver Iowa lottery shares or tickets on behalf of customers within the state. It directly affects courier services operating as for-profit entities and Iowa residents who use these services. Key provisions require couriers to verify customers' Iowa location and age before purchases, securely store tickets until delivery, implement responsible gambling controls, use dedicated terminals (not credit cards), and charge only reasonable fees. The bill also mandates written agreements between couriers and retailers, with retailers disclosing these agreements to the lottery administrator within three business days.
