Coin Explainer
Two currencies share every lobby and only one can become a prize.
Gold Coins
Play money. Issued in the millions because issuing costs nothing, impossible to redeem, and 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 route. Play each coin through once and the balance can, at the site floor, be exchanged for a cash prize or a gift card.
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.
Playthrough and the floor
Playthrough means one wager per coin before it counts. The floor is the minimum redeemable balance the site will process, 50 to 100 SC across this edition.
- Gold Coins: unlimited, free, worthless at the cashier
- Sweeps Coins: one playthrough, redeemable at the floor
- Floors this edition: 50 SC to 100 SC
