Sec. 8. (1) The board may issue a sports betting supplier license to a sports betting supplier. A person that is not licensed under this section shall not provide goods, software, or services as a sports betting supplier to a sports betting operator.

(2) On application by an interested person, the board may issue a provisional sports betting supplier license to an applicant for a sports betting supplier license.

A provisional license issued under this subsection expires on the date provided by the board. The board shall not issue a provisional internet sports betting supplier license to an internet sports betting platform provider under this subsection until board rules as described in section 10(1)  1 are in effect.

(3) A sports betting supplier license issued under subsection (1) is valid for the 5-year period after the date of issuance. A sports betting supplier license is renewable after the initial 5-year period for additional 5-year periods if the board determines that the sports betting supplier continues to meet the eligibility and suitability standards under this act.
