Sweepstakes play runs on two coins that move in parallel: Gold Coins (GC) for free entertainment and Sweep Coins (SC), the coin that converts into real-money prizes. You need to be 18 or older (21 in select states); brands are not available to players in Washington or Idaho.

Same test, every brand: open an account, buy a package, play for a week, redeem to a real bank account. Only then does scoring start. Full details on our rating system page.

How US Sweepstakes Brands Work
Sweepstakes casinos are gaming platforms that operate under federal promotional-sweepstakes law rather than state gambling licenses. The system separates play into two coins: Gold Coins (GC), a fun currency with no cash value, and Sweep Coins (SC), a promotional currency that is always distributed free and can be redeemed for genuine cash prizes above a set minimum.
Since SC can be obtained without spending — via welcome offers, daily logins, giveaways, and mail-in entry — the format qualifies as a legal sweepstakes in 48 states. New to the format? Our beginner’s guide explains the mechanics, and the state legality page covers where you can play.
