Responsible Gambling

Entertainment, Not Income

Sweepstakes casinos are a form of entertainment — not an investment or a way to make money. Decide a budget before you start and treat any spend like the cost of a movie or a streaming subscription.

Healthy Play Checklist

• Set a monthly entertainment budget and keep to it.
• Choose a session time limit before logging in.
• Never play while stressed, upset, or under the influence.
• Take regular breaks and use reality-check reminders.
• Don’t chase losses — variance is part of the game.

Tools That Help

• Purchase limits — cap your Gold Coin spend daily, weekly, or monthly.
• Time-outs — pause your account from a day up to several weeks.
• Self-exclusion — block access for six months up to permanently.
• Reality checks — periodic reminders of time spent playing.

Warning Signs

Reach out if you notice spending beyond plan, hiding play from family, chasing losses, playing to escape stress, or neglecting work or relationships.
