The pillar guide
Sweepstakes casinos use two virtual currencies and a free way to enter instead of real-money bets. We explain both coins, what a purchase is worth after the house edge, how redemptions and taxes work, and where the model is banned.
Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins run the same games at sweepstakes casinos, but only Sweeps Coins can become a prize. This guide covers how each coin is earned, played and redeemed.
To redeem Sweeps Coins, you verify your identity, play the coins through, reach the site minimum and request cash or a gift card. This guide covers each step, the typical minimums and wait times, and the rules that get requests rejected.
