Sweepstakes Poker FAQ

What is sweepstakes poker?
Sweepstakes poker is a legal model where you play poker using virtual currencies. Gold Coins (GC) are used for free play, and Sweep Coins (SC) — which you receive as free bonuses — can be redeemed for real cash prizes. You never wager real money directly on poker hands.
Is sweepstakes poker legal in the United States?
Yes. Sweepstakes poker operates under sweepstakes law, not gambling law. It is legal in 41+ US states. Excluded states include Washington, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, and a few others. No gambling license is required because you never wager real money — you play with virtual currency and redeem promotional Sweep Coins.
How do Gold Coins and Sweep Coins work?
Gold Coins (GC) are for free play. You receive 50,000 GC when you sign up and earn more through daily bonuses, freerolls, and missions. Sweep Coins (SC) are promotional bonuses included free with GC purchases and can be redeemed for real cash prizes at a 1:1 ratio ($1 per SC). You can never buy SC directly.
How do I redeem Sweep Coins for real prizes?
Once you have accumulated Sweep Coins from playing, you can request a redemption. Minimum redemption is 50 SC ($50). Redemptions are processed via bank transfer or approved payment methods, typically within 3-5 business days. KYC verification is required for your first redemption.
How is sweepstakes poker different from real money poker?
In real money poker, you deposit and wager actual money. In sweepstakes poker, you play with virtual Gold Coins and receive Sweep Coins as free promotional bonuses. The gameplay is identical — same rules, same strategy, same competition — but the legal structure is different, making it accessible in states where real money online poker is not yet licensed.
Why choose PlasmaPoker over other sweepstakes poker sites?
