N.D. Admin. Code 99-01.3-05-01
A raffle is a game in which a prize is won by a player who bought a raffle ticket or square on a raffle board. A winning player is determined by drawing a ticket stub or number of a square on a raffle board from a receptacle or by an alternate fair method approved by the attorney general. A calendar raffle is a raffle in which a player's ticket stub is entered in two or more drawings held on predetermined days over an extended period of time for predetermined prizes. For a raffle board, the numbered squares on the board must be sold for the same price at a site on the day of the drawing. A licensed organization or organization with a permit shall complete on the board the cost per square, prizes, and date of the raffle and, for a licensed organization, ensure a raffle board includes a state gaming stamp affixed by a distributor. For each square sold, an employee shall legibly write the player's full name in the square purchased by the player. Duplicate numbers corresponding to the numbered squares on a board must be placed into a receptacle for drawing. The conduct of a raffle is the drawing or alternate fair method of selection approved by the attorney general. Only a licensed gaming organization may sell raffle tickets online over the internet and may accept an electronic payment, including payment by a debit or credit card, for the purchase of a raffle ticket. A licensed organization must use a licensed raffle system provider who must utilize a geolocation system that is certified by an approved independent testing laboratory. For online raffles, all tickets must be sold and purchased online. All electronic payments of raffle tickets must be completed through an organization's website and all receipts from debit and credit card transactions must be deposited directly in the gaming account. An organization with a local permit or restricted event permit may not sell raffle tickets online or accept credit card payments.
