About Us

This website is an independent informational resource dedicated to providing accurate, data-driven coverage of sweepstakes coins casinos in the United States. Our goal is to help players, researchers, and policymakers understand how the sweepstakes casino model works, where it is legal, and what the data says about its economic and social impact.

What We Do

We research, analyze, and publish long-form guides on the sweepstakes casino industry. Our content covers the dual-currency model (Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins), state-by-state legality, payout structures, platform comparisons, responsible gambling considerations, and regulatory developments. Every claim in our articles is sourced from publicly available data, and we link directly to the original publications so readers can verify the information independently.

Editorial Independence

No sweepstakes casino operator has paid for placement, favorable coverage, or editorial influence on this website. We do not maintain affiliate relationships with any platform discussed in our content. Our revenue model does not depend on directing players to specific casinos, and our editorial decisions are not influenced by commercial partnerships.

We present perspectives from both sides of the regulatory debate. Our sources include the American Gaming Association, which has advocated for stricter regulation of sweepstakes casinos, and the Social Gaming Leadership Alliance, which represents sweepstakes operators. We believe readers are best served by balanced reporting that acknowledges the legitimate arguments on each side.

Our Sources

The data in our guides is drawn from the following categories of sources:

Industry research firms, including Eilers and Krejcik Gaming (EKG Line forecasts, Social Casino Tracker) and KPMG (industry primers and market assessments). Regulatory and government bodies, including the American Gaming Association revenue trackers, the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States (NCLGS) proceedings, and state legislative records. Operator disclosures, including VGW’s published financial filings and Gaming Innovation Group investor presentations. Industry organizations, including the Social and Promotional Gaming Association (SPGA) and the Social Gaming Leadership Alliance (SGLA) public disclosures. Academic research, including peer-reviewed studies published in The Lancet Public Health and other journals covering gambling behavior and prevalence data.

Expert quotes are drawn from on-the-record statements made in press releases, industry conference panels, published interviews, and legal filings. All quotes are attributed to their original speakers and linked to the source publication.

Content Accuracy

Platform-specific data, such as game counts, bonus amounts, minimum redemption thresholds, and payout methods, is verified at the time of writing. These figures change frequently as platforms update their offerings. We include publication dates on all content and recommend that readers verify current details directly at each platform’s website before making decisions based on our comparative data.

If you identify an error in our content, we welcome corrections. Verified errors are updated promptly, and material corrections are noted in the text.

Responsible Gambling

We recognize that sweepstakes casinos, despite their promotional framing, offer an experience that the majority of players identify as gambling. Our content includes data on problem gambling prevalence, responsible play tools, and resources for individuals who may be experiencing gambling-related harm. We encourage all readers to set personal spending limits and to seek help if gaming stops being entertainment.
