Terms and Conditions

These terms explain how thesharehouse.org operates, what our content is (and isn't), and what you're agreeing to by using this site. Please read them alongside our Responsible Gambling page and our Transparency on Rules page, which go into more detail on specific policies referenced below.

What this site is and isn't

Sweepstakes Casinos is an independent information and comparison resource covering sweepstakes and social casinos available to players in the US. We publish reviews, rankings, and general guidance about platforms such as Spinblitz, Crown Coins, Lone Star, Free Spins, SplashCoins, MegaBonanza, Spree, and Crash Duel. We are not a casino, a sweepstakes operator, a payment processor, or a legal or tax advisor. Nothing on this site is an offer to gamble for real money, and we do not operate any of the platforms we write about.

Sweepstakes casinos use a promotional sweepstakes model rather than traditional real-money wagering. Typically, players receive two types of virtual currency: one (often called Gold Coins or an equivalent) that has no cash value and is used for casual play, and a second (often called Sweeps Coins or an equivalent) that can potentially be redeemed for prizes once minimum thresholds and verification requirements are met. This structure is legally distinct from real-money online gambling, and we describe it as such throughout the site — we do not refer to these platforms as real-money casinos, and we do not claim or imply that outcomes on any game are guaranteed.

By using this site, you agree to the following

• You are at least 18 years old, or the minimum age required by the operator and your state, whichever is higher. Some operators set a minimum of 21.
• You understand that any rankings, ratings, or comparisons on this site reflect our own editorial research and opinion, not a guarantee of any operator's performance, legality in your state, or suitability for you.
• You will independently confirm eligibility, terms, and legal status with the operator directly before signing up or making any purchase.
• You will not use this site if you are located in a jurisdiction where sweepstakes casinos are restricted or prohibited.
• You accept that content on this site can change, become outdated, or be corrected without prior notice, and that operator terms can change faster than we can update our pages.

How we cover and rank operators

Our reviews and rankings are based on publicly available information about each platform, including stated welcome offers, coin structures, and game libraries, cross-checked where possible against operator terms at the time of writing. We look at factors such as the clarity of an operator's redemption process, the range of games on offer, the transparency of its terms, and the strength and conditions of its welcome offer. Editorial ratings shown on this site reflect our own assessment and are not customer-review scores, nor are they claims about odds, payout speed, or trustworthiness relative to every operator in the market.

thesharehouse.org may receive commission when readers sign up with an operator through links on this site. This does not influence how operators are ranked or reviewed — commission arrangements are separate from our editorial process, and paying to advertise does not buy a better position on any list.

Any headline offer shown alongside an operator — for example, a coin package, bonus percentage, or free spins amount — is stated as advertised by the operator at the time of publication. Offers, minimum ages, eligible states, and redemption rules are set by each operator and are subject to change; we recommend confirming current terms directly on the operator's own site before you rely on them.

No purchase necessary and free play

Legitimate sweepstakes casinos generally let players participate without spending money — this is usually described as "no purchase necessary," often alongside a free alternative method of entry such as a mail-in request. This is a core part of what separates the sweepstakes model from traditional gambling, and nothing on this site should be read as suggesting that buying coin packages is required to play, receive daily rewards, or take part in promotions. Where we describe welcome bonuses, daily login rewards, or loyalty perks, these are generally available to players regardless of whether they choose to purchase additional coins.

Legal availability and your responsibility

Sweepstakes casino availability varies by state, and some states restrict or prohibit this model entirely. Operators decide for themselves which states they serve, and that list can change. We do not claim that any operator covered on this site is legal in every state, and nothing here should be read as legal advice. If you have questions about whether a specific platform can legally serve you, check that operator's own eligibility terms and, if needed, seek independent legal guidance. Age requirements also vary — some operators accept players from 18, others require 21 — and it is your responsibility to confirm which applies before creating an account.

Prize redemptions through Sweeps Coins or an equivalent currency may be subject to identity verification, minimum redemption thresholds, and processing terms set by the operator. Redeemed prizes may also carry tax implications under federal and state rules; we don't provide tax advice, and we'd encourage you to keep your own records and check official guidance if you redeem a prize.

Accuracy, changes, and liability

We take reasonable care to keep information on thesharehouse.org accurate as of each page's last update, but operator terms, eligible states, coin packages, and promotions can change without notice. We are not liable for losses, disputes, or account issues arising from your use of any third-party operator, including issues related to redemption, verification, or account closure. Any dispute about an operator's terms, offer, or service should be raised directly with that operator.

We may update these terms, our reviews, or our rankings at any time as operators change their offers or as our research develops. Continued use of the site after changes are published means you accept the current version of these terms.
