Our philosophy
Online gaming is meant to be enjoyable. Like any form of entertainment, it needs balance and control.
We encourage every player to:
- Play for fun, not for financial gain.
- Set time and budget limits before you start.
- Never chase losses. Tomorrow is another day.
- Take regular breaks.
- Treat gaming as a hobby, not an income source.
Recognizing problem gambling
Sweepstakes casinos use virtual currency and are designed for entertainment, but excessive or uncontrolled play can still cause harm.
You may be at risk if you:
- Spend more time or money on gaming than planned
- Neglect work, relationships, or responsibilities because of gaming
- Borrow money or sell belongings to keep playing
- Feel anxious, angry, or depressed after gaming
- Try to win back losses
- Hide your gaming habits from friends or family
If any of these sound familiar, step back and use one of the helplines at the top of this page.

Our commitment
At DoSweeps, we:
- Promote only sweepstakes casinos that follow U.S. legal guidelines.
- Encourage responsible play in our reviews and guides.
- Do not feature real-money gambling or operators that target minors.
- Remove or update recommendations for platforms that show irresponsible practices.
Underage gaming
DoSweeps is written for adults. There is no single sweepstakes minimum age: some operators we cover set it at 18, others at 21, and some states set it higher than the operator does. The operator terms for your state are the ones that count, and each casino record on this site prints the age that operator holds on file.
We do not knowingly collect or share information from anyone under the legal age.
If you believe a minor is using our content, write to us at info@dosweeps.com.
