A gaming destination built on promotional-sweepstakes law instead of a gambling licence. You play casino-style games with two wallets: Gold Coins, the tourist scrip that only buys entertainment, and Sweepstakes Coins, the free-issued hard currency that can eventually exchange for real prizes. Because nothing redeemable is sold and a free lane is always open, the law treats the whole place as a promotion – the cereal-box prize draw’s big-city cousin.

No. Cash wagers do not exist here, and Gold Coin play carries zero monetary stakes. The only road to real value runs through Sweepstakes Coins, which are handed out free and only convert to prizes after playthrough and minimum requirements are cleared.

Four dependable lanes: the arrival grant, daily login stamps, social-media giveaways, and mail-in postcard requests – the free entry route the law obliges every operator to keep open. Our own zero-spend passports have stayed active for months on these lanes alone.

At the exit desk, each Sweepstakes Coin converts to roughly one US dollar of prize value. Clear a common 75 SC minimum and you are exchanging about $75, paid as gift cards or bank transfer depending on the border.

They keep processing and fraud-screening costs sane on the operator’s side. On your side of the counter, read the minimum as part of the package: a shiny arrival grant matters less when the exit desk sits far above it.

Washington, Nevada and Idaho, sealed for years – and California, closed by AB 831 in January 2026. Operators geolocate at entry and exit and will not open or pay accounts in those four states. The full frontier report is in our legality guide.

Yes, before your first redemption: photo ID and proof of address, standard at every crossing. Field advice – file them the day you arrive, because the verification queue causes more first-exit delays than anything else on the map.

Reputable operators stock games from established studios running audited random number generators, and our long-haul results have tracked the published volatility. Ownership transparency is one of our twelve checkpoints precisely because a fair game starts with knowing whose house it is.

Most travelers do. Nearly every operator runs a browser lobby with no download required, and a few keep native apps. How those roads ride on a mid-range phone is a graded station in every inspection we publish.

The site is operated by OMD AS, a Norwegian company – full papers on the About page. We may earn referral commissions from operators, but the rankings are set at the checkpoint and no operator can buy a stamp.
