Keep it fun, keep it in check
Sweepstakes casinos are free to play, but Gold Coin purchases are real money and play can still get out of hand. Here is how to stay in control, and where to get help if you need it.
Call or text 1-800-522-470018+ (21+ in some states). No purchase necessary.Five rules that work
Set a time and a spending limit before you open the app, not after.
The free coins are the whole point. If you are buying to chase a redemption, stop.
Coins spent are gone. Buying more to win them back is how small losses become large ones.
Every casino here offers a cool-off period or self-exclusion in the account settings.
If play is on your mind more than you would like, say so to a friend or call the helpline below.
When fun stops being fun
Spending more than you planned, more than once. Hiding purchases from people close to you. Playing to feel better rather than to have fun. Thinking about the next session when you should be doing something else. Borrowing to buy coins. Any one of these is a reason to pause; two or more is a reason to get help.
