The document describes Puerto Rico's IVU Loto program, which aims to improve sales tax collection through citizen participation. It requires businesses to generate a receipt with an IVU Loto number for transactions. There are three options for businesses to participate: integrating the program into existing point-of-sale systems, modifying self-service POS systems to include IVU Loto, or using free fiscal devices provided by the government. The program launched in phases across Puerto Rico regions beginning in March 2022.
