Welcome to the Louisiana Office of Charitable Gaming

The Office of Charitable Gaming's Mission is to administer efficiently and effectively the state’s regulatory statutes in a manner that will generate the highest degree of public confidence in the Department's integrity and fairness. The Office was established by the Legislature of Louisiana to decrease the potential for fraud in the conducting of games of chance, to guarantee that organizations obtain the full benefit from the conducting of the games of chance, and to ensure that the net proceeds are contributed to bona fide and allowable charitable causes.

New Office of Charitable Gaming portal goes live Nov. 17

The Louisiana Office of Charitable Gaming (OCG) will launch its new public web portal on Monday, Nov. 17, 2025.

The BLAIR (Bingo Licensing, Accounting, Inventory & Reporting) system is one part of a broader initiative to streamline OCG’s licensing processes.

New features available through the BLAIR portal include:

• Access for multiple users with unique usernames and passwords
• Individual login credentials for external, third-party preparers of quarterly reports
• Enhanced design, interface and navigation for an improved user experience
• Online payments for license renewals, penalties and fines

Please contact OCG at the earliest opportunity to confirm the email address you will use to gain access to the portal. External preparers cannot be added until the portal is live.

If you are a frequent user, remember to update your browser bookmarks with the new website address.
