Why Trust Our Opinion
- Licensed States only. We list operators approved by regulators like the NJ DGE, Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, Michigan Gaming Control Board, Nevada Gaming Control Board, and other state authorities. No offshore sites ever.
- Hands-on testing. We do the full journey: sign up, KYC, deposit, claim the bonus, finish wagering, and withdraw. If something’s clunky or slow, we call it out.
- Crystal-clear terms. We spell out wagering, game weighting, min/max cashout, expiry windows, and bonus-bet exclusions. If an offer looks shiny but won’t convert in real life, it doesn’t rank.
- Speed & reliability. We benchmark mobile and desktop for load times, crashes, geolocation stability, and live-dealer performance especially at peak hours.
- Payments verified. We test U.S.-friendly methods (PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, Play+, VIP Preferred/ACH, online banking, and cards) and log typical payout times.
- Real game coverage. We check catalog depth by state (slots, jackpots, live dealer, top studios) and highlight true exclusives.
- Responsible play first. We prioritize brands with strong RG tools (cool-offs, deposit/loss limits, self-exclusion) and link directly to help resources.
- Independent rankings. Sites are scored against a fixed rubric. Operators can’t buy placement. We may earn a commission if you use our links, never a factor in ratings.
- Updated daily. Promos are tracked and refreshed every day in legalized states so you see today’s offers, not last month’s.
- Built for the U.S. State-specific pages, localized banking notes, taxed-winnings guidance, and bonus picks tuned to your state’s rules.
Sweepstakes Casinos
Sweepstakes casinos or social casinos are
available in over forty states in the US. While these sweepstakes resemble traditional sweepstakes contests, you can
still win valuable prizes. These prizes can be exchanged for real money rewards.
In 2026, many states, such as Louisiana and Florida, have moved to ban sweepstakes. However, as of now, they remain
legal in most US states without real money casinos.
