Gold Coins And Sweeps Coins
Two currencies share every lobby and only one can become a prize. This is the difference the welcome banners blur.
Gold Coins
Play money, issued in the millions because issuing it costs nothing. No redemption route, no cash value, genuinely useful for learning a lobby without spending. A huge Gold Coin headline tells you nothing about the value of a welcome.
Sweeps Coins
The promotional currency with a redemption path. Play each coin through once and the balance can, at the club floor, be exchanged for a cash prize or a gift card. Every judgement in our table is a Sweeps Coin judgement.
Why no purchase is required
US sweepstakes rules require a free route in: a daily bonus, an on-site giveaway, a social drop or a postal request. Buying a coin package purchases play money, and the Sweeps Coins attached are a promotional extra.
Playthrough and the floor
Playthrough means each coin must be wagered once before it counts. The floor is the minimum redeemable balance the club will process, usually 50 to 100 SC. Two coins in front of a 75 coin floor is an invitation to return, not a payout.
- Gold Coins: unlimited, free, worthless at the cashier
- Sweeps Coins: one playthrough, then redeemable at the floor
- Floors in our table: 50 SC to 100 SC
- Every club here has a free entry route
