This restriction separates the online lottery from online casino games. <b>Policymakers designed this carefully<\/b> to protect traditional lottery retailers who fear reduced in-store sales.<\/p>\n<h2>Revenue and Tax Structure for Online Gaming<\/h2>\n<table style='width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:20px 0'>\n<tr style='background:#f4f4f4'>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold'>Aspect<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold'>Details<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Initial Tax Rate<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>26% flat levy through June 2026<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style='background:#f9f9f9'>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Future Tax Rate<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Graduated scale starts July 2026<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Expected Revenue<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>To benefit Indiana public programs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style='background:#f9f9f9'>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Effective Date<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Pending full House passage and approval<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>The <b>26% flat tax rate<\/b> applies initially to all online lottery revenues.
