LB 828 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Redefine a term relating to gift enterprises

Nebraska's LB 828 redefines "gift enterprise" in state law to clarify rules for business promotions involving chance and prizes, such as raffles tied to product purchases. It explicitly excludes bingo, keno, slot machines, and pickle cards while requiring promotional tickets to display the operator's name, avoid cost-per-play markings, and not resemble approved pickle cards. The bill restricts operators (businesses running these promotions) from rigging games, unfairly disqualifying winners, or charging entry fees beyond normal product costs, and mandates full disclosure of terms to participants. These rules apply to businesses, financial institutions, and credit unions conducting such promotions within Nebraska, with enforcement handled by the Department of Revenue.
