  It is a taxable privilege to offer sports wagering in this state under a license issued in accordance with this part.

The tax must be paid to the corporation in accordance with rules promulgated by the corporation.   For the purpose of enforcing this part and ascertaining the amount of tax due under this section, the corporation may competitively procure the services of a vendor to provide a central accounting and reporting system, to ascertain all bets wagered minus the total amount paid out to winning bettors daily, and such other information as the corporation may require. All licensees shall utilize such central accounting and reporting system.    Eighty percent (80%) of the privilege tax collected under this section must be distributed by the corporation to the state treasurer for deposit into the lottery for education account created under § 4-51-111. Funds deposited under this subdivision (e)(1) must be accounted for separately by the corporation from funds collected by the corporation for the lottery.

Notwithstanding § 4-51-111, fifteen percent (15%) of the privilege tax collected under this section must be distributed by the corporation quarterly to the state treasurer for deposit into the general fund, to be remitted quarterly to each local government in this state on a per capita basis, as determined by population based on the last federal census. For purposes of calculating the allocation, the population of counties excludes the population of each municipality within the boundaries of the county. Funds remitted to a local government under this subdivision (e)(2) must be allocated to the county or city general fund, as applicable, to be used for local infrastructure projects, including, without limitation, transportation and road projects and public buildings.
