Terms and Conditions – Sweeps Sites

These terms and conditions govern your use of westporthistorical.com (trading as Sweeps Sites). By accessing any page on this site, you agree to the terms set out below. If you do not agree, please stop using the site. These terms apply to all visitors, regardless of whether you follow any of the links to third-party platforms we review.

Who We Are and What We Do

Sweeps Sites is an independent comparison and review website focused on sweepstakes casinos and social casino platforms available to players in the United States. Our editorial team researches, reviews and ranks platforms based on criteria we have defined ourselves. We do not operate any casino, sweepstakes promotion or gaming platform. We have no control over the terms, coin balances, promotions or eligibility rules of any operator listed on this site.

Our reviews cover how these platforms work, what games they offer, how their dual-currency models function, and what conditions apply to welcome offers and prize redemption. For a full overview of the platforms we cover, visit our guide to the best sweepstakes casino sites in the US.

Affiliate Relationships and Commercial Disclosure

Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. When you click through to an operator and create an account or make a purchase, Sweeps Sites may earn a commission from that operator. This does not affect the price you pay or the offer you receive.

Our editorial rankings and ratings are determined independently. A commercial relationship with an operator does not improve its ranking, and the absence of one does not exclude a platform from review. Operators are assessed on factors including game variety, welcome offer transparency, redemption conditions, free-entry availability, and responsible play provisions. Commission does not buy position.

Where an offer is presented alongside a rating, that rating is an editorial assessment produced by our team — it is not a customer-review score, a tested result or a guarantee of any kind.

Accuracy of Information

We make every reasonable effort to ensure the information on this site is accurate and current at the time of publication. Sweepstakes casino offers, eligible states, redemption thresholds, coin values and platform terms change frequently. We cannot guarantee that every detail remains accurate at the moment you read it.

Always read the operator's own terms and conditions before creating an account or making a purchase.
Check the operator's eligible-states list directly — availability changes, and some states restrict or prohibit sweepstakes casino platforms entirely.
Welcome offers are subject to the operator's current promotional rules, which may differ from what was accurate on our fact-check date.
Redemption thresholds, processing times and accepted payment methods are set by each operator and are subject to change without notice.

Nothing on this site constitutes legal advice. If you have questions about whether a particular platform is available or lawful in your state, consult the operator's terms or seek independent guidance. Laws and enforcement positions vary by state and change frequently.

How the Sweepstakes Model Works — a Reader Reminder

Sweepstakes casinos operate under a promotional sweepstakes model, not as licensed real-money gambling sites. They typically use two types of virtual currency:

Gold Coins (or equivalent): Used for entertainment play only. They have no monetary value and cannot be redeemed for prizes.
Sweepstakes Coins (or equivalent): Awarded through promotions, daily rewards, and purchases. These can, subject to the operator's terms, be redeemed for prizes including gift cards or cash equivalents.

No purchase is necessary to obtain Sweepstakes Coins. Legitimate operators offer an alternative method of entry (AMOE) — commonly a mail-in request — that allows participation without spending money. We describe how this works across the platforms we cover in our sweepstakes casino comparison.

Prize redemption is subject to identity verification, minimum thresholds, geographic restrictions and each operator's individual terms. Outcomes in casino-style games are determined by chance. Nothing on this site implies or guarantees any financial return.

Age and Eligibility

Sweepstakes casino platforms are intended for adults only. Most operators require users to be at least 18 years of age; some set the minimum at 21, either across all states or in specific jurisdictions. You are responsible for checking the age requirement of any platform you register with.

This site is not intended for anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect information from or direct content toward minors.

Geographic eligibility also varies. Certain states — including but not limited to Washington, Idaho and Michigan at various times — have restricted or excluded sweepstakes casino platforms. Operators maintain their own lists of excluded states, which may differ from one another and may change without prior notice. It is your responsibility to confirm you are eligible before registering.

Tax Obligations

Prize redemptions from sweepstakes casino platforms may be taxable under US federal and state tax law. If you redeem Sweepstakes Coins for cash equivalents or other prizes, you may have a reporting obligation. Tax rules vary by state and individual circumstance. Sweeps Sites does not provide tax advice. We recommend keeping records of any redemptions and consulting official IRS guidance or a qualified tax professional if you are uncertain about your obligations.

Third-Party Sites and Content

This site contains links to third-party operators and platforms. We are not responsible for the content, terms, practices or availability of those sites. Clicking through to an operator means you are leaving westporthistorical.com and entering a platform governed by that operator's own terms and privacy policy.

We do not endorse every aspect of a platform by listing it. Our reviews reflect the information available at the time of research and are updated periodically. Any offer details shown on a third-party site at the time of your visit are the operator's responsibility, not ours.

Intellectual Property

All original content on this site — including review text, editorial ratings, comparisons, analysis and site structure — is the property of Sweeps Sites and is protected by applicable copyright law. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute or adapt our content without prior written permission. Quoting brief excerpts with a clear attribution and a link to the original page is generally acceptable; wholesale copying is not.

Brand names, logos and trademarks belonging to the operators we review remain the property of their respective owners. Their appearance on this site does not imply sponsorship or endorsement of Sweeps Sites by those operators, except where a formal commercial relationship exists as disclosed above.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sweeps Sites and its contributors accept no liability for:

Losses of any kind arising from your use of, or inability to use, any platform we review or link to.
Inaccuracies in operator terms, offer details or eligibility information that have changed since our last fact-check.
Decisions you make based on content published on this site.
Technical errors, interruptions or downtime affecting this site or any linked platform.

This site is provided "as is" for informational purposes. We make no warranties, express or implied, about the completeness, reliability or suitability of the content for any particular purpose.

Responsible Play

Even though sweepstakes casinos differ from licensed real-money gambling, casino-style games can still be habit-forming for some people. We encourage all readers to set personal limits on time and spending, make use of any responsible play tools an operator provides, and seek support if gaming stops being enjoyable.

For guidance on maintaining healthy play habits, visit our responsible gambling page, which lists resources available to US players.
