Raffles are Wisconsin's favorite and most profitable form of grassroots fund-raising. Well over 7,500 groups are licensed to conduct raffles and net profits from this activity have remained steady at nearly 60%. After paying a $25 license fee, qualified organizations may conduct up to 200 raffle drawings during a one year period.

If you would like license renewal information, forms or rules and regulations, please see below. 

Certain raffle licenses may be renewed on-line.  To file your raffle renewal and report online, you must have your current raffle license number and your organization must meet all of the following criteria:

1. The total number of raffles conducted must not exceed 200;
2. The total dollar amount of reported gross receipts must not exceed $50,000; and
3. The raffle license will expire within the next 60 days or has expired within the last 30 days.

Payment will be made by credit card and processed through our e-payment system.

If your organization does not meet the above criteria or you do not have a credit card that can be used for the on-line renewal process, you must file your report and renewal by mail, as has been done in the past.

The on-line renewal feature is not a means for checking the status of a raffle license.  The information contained therein is protected to avoid identity theft.
