lottery retailers

Explanation:
see reference:

The Lottery relies on a statewide network of diverse retailers that actually sell Lottery products. The commissions and bonuses earned by approximately 2,900 retailers help stimulate economies in local communities around the state, which is a significant benefit of the Lottery to local businesses.

In addition to selling Scratch, Lotto, Cash 5 and Powerball tickets, retailers redeem prizes, provide winning numbers, display point-of-sale materials, and are an important link in informing customers about Lottery games, promotions and events.

Lottery Retailers by Tradestyle: outlets, convenience stores, grocery stores, liquor stores, restaurants/bars

  -> sorry, Kathi, hab' ich nicht gesehen, dass Du das auch als weiteren Vorschlag hattest

agree Andrew Swift: This would be the better choice if the reader of the document is British and therefore familiar with the UK National Lottery. 'Sales point' also OK but sounds more US as would 'lottery ticket vendors'
