Quick answers

A Few Clear Answers

Fast answers before you sign up, claim a reward, or start a game.

What Is a Sweepstakes Casino?

A sweepstakes casino offers casino-style games with virtual coins. At Win Bonanza, GC are for entertainment. SC are for sweepstakes play under our rules.

How Do Sweepstakes Casinos Work?

Create an eligible account, choose your coin mode and read the game rules. Check the entry and prize requirements before you use SC.

What Is the Difference Between Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins?

Gold Coins (GC) are for entertainment and cannot be redeemed for prizes. Sweeps Coins (SC) are for sweepstakes play. You must complete the required play and identity checks before you request a prize.

No purchase is necessary to enter our sweepstakes. Our no-purchase entry guide explains the mail entry steps and links to the full rules. Read the Entry Guide.
