Currently unavailable or available with limitations in:
California, New York, New Jersey, Idaho, Connecticut, Kentucky, Montana.
How It's Legal
Instead of wagering money, you play with virtual currencies (like Gold Coins or Sweeps Coins).
No purchase is required - you can receive free entries through sign-up bonuses or mail-in offers.
This model keeps sweepstakes casinos compliant with U.S. laws.
Player Responsibility
It's your responsibility to check the legal status of sweepstakes gaming in your state and ensure you meet age and eligibility requirements (usually 18+, 21+ in some jurisdictions).
