Terms and Conditions
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before using Sweeps (blackjunction.tv). By accessing or continuing to use this website, you agree to be bound by the terms set out below. If you do not accept these terms, please do not use the site.
1. About Sweeps
Sweeps is an independent comparison and information website focused on sweepstakes casinos and social casino platforms available to players in the United States. We do not operate any sweepstakes casino, social casino, or gaming service ourselves. All platforms listed on this site are operated by independent third parties. Our role is to research, review, and compare those platforms to help readers make informed decisions.
The ranked offers, editorial ratings, and promotional details displayed on this site reflect information available at the time of our most recent review. They do not represent a personal endorsement that any particular platform is right for you.
2. Affiliate Disclosure
Sweeps operates as an independent affiliate. Some of the links on this site are affiliate links, meaning that if you visit a listed platform and create an account or make a purchase, we may receive a commission or referral fee from the operator at no additional cost to you.
Commercial relationships of this kind do not determine how platforms are ranked or rated. Our editorial assessments are based on independent research into factors such as game availability, welcome offer terms, redemption conditions, and platform usability. Commission does not buy a higher position on this site.
3. What We Cover — and What We Are Not
The platforms featured on Sweeps operate under a promotional sweepstakes model. They are not licensed real-money casinos. They use a dual-currency system — typically a Gold Coin equivalent for entertainment play and a Sweepstakes Coin equivalent that may be redeemed for prizes subject to the operator's terms. This model is legally distinct from traditional online gambling, and the platforms listed here are not regulated as gambling operators under US federal or state gaming law.
Nothing on this site constitutes legal advice. We do not confirm that any platform is lawful for you personally to use. Availability varies by state, and laws governing sweepstakes promotions change frequently. You are responsible for checking whether a platform is available and permissible in your state before registering. Where you have questions about your specific circumstances, consult a qualified legal adviser.
4. Eligibility and Age Requirements
This website is intended for adults only. You must be at least 18 years old to use Sweeps. Many sweepstakes casino platforms also require users to be at least 18, though some set the minimum at 21 either across all states or in states where local rules or operator policy require it. Age requirements are set by each individual operator, and you should verify the applicable minimum age on the platform you intend to use before registering.
By using this site, you confirm that you are of legal age in your jurisdiction to access information about sweepstakes casino platforms. Sweeps does not knowingly collect information from, or direct content toward, anyone under the age of 18.
5. Geographic Availability
Sweepstakes casino platforms are not available in every US state. Individual operators decide which states they serve based on their own legal assessments, and those decisions can change without notice. Sweeps lists platforms that are generally accessible to US players, but we do not guarantee that every listed platform is available in your specific state at the time you read this page. Always check the operator's current eligible-states list before signing up. Our guide to the best sweepstakes casinos in the US notes state availability where it has been verified, but that information may also change.
6. Accuracy of Information
We make reasonable efforts to ensure that the information published on Sweeps is accurate and reflects current platform details. Welcome offer terms, coin quantities, redemption thresholds, eligible states, and payment methods are subject to change by operators at any time and without prior notice to us.
We recommend that you verify all material terms — including offer conditions, minimum redemption amounts, identity verification requirements, and geographic restrictions — directly with the operator before registering or making any purchase. Sweeps accepts no liability for decisions made in reliance on information that has changed since our last review.
7. No Purchase Necessary
A defining legal feature of legitimate sweepstakes promotions in the US is that no purchase is necessary to enter or to receive Sweepstakes Coins. Reputable platforms generally provide a free alternative method of entry (AMOE), such as a postal mail-in request, so that participation does not require any financial outlay. Sweeps does not imply that purchasing coin packages is the only way to play or to qualify for prize redemption. If a platform you are considering does not offer a genuine free entry method, review its terms carefully.
8. No Guarantee of Outcomes
Sweepstakes casino games involve chance. Sweeps makes no representation that using any platform listed on this site will result in prize redemption or any financial benefit. Outcomes are not guaranteed, and past promotional offers do not predict future results. Do not commit money you cannot afford to part with to any coin purchase.
9. Tax Obligations
Prize redemptions from sweepstakes casino platforms may constitute taxable income under US federal and state tax law. Tax obligations depend on your individual circumstances, the amount redeemed, and the rules of your state. Sweeps does not provide tax advice. If you redeem prizes, you are responsible for understanding and meeting any reporting or payment obligations that apply to you. Keep records of your activity and consult official IRS guidance or a qualified tax professional if you are uncertain.
10. Responsible Play
Even though sweepstakes casinos do not operate as real-money gambling sites, casino-style games can still become a source of problematic behaviour for some people. Sweeps encourages all users to play within their means, set time and spending limits, and seek help if their play is causing concern. Resources and guidance are available on our responsible gambling page.
11. Intellectual Property
All original content published on Sweeps — including written reviews, editorial ratings, comparison tables, and site design — is the property of Sweeps or its content contributors and is protected by applicable copyright and intellectual property law. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, or commercially exploit any content from this site without prior written permission.
Third-party brand names, logos, and trademarks referenced on this site belong to their respective owners. Their appearance on Sweeps does not imply any affiliation with or endorsement by those owners beyond the commercial relationships described in Section 2 above.
12. Third-Party Links and Content
Sweeps contains links to third-party websites operated by sweepstakes casino platforms and other independent parties. We are not responsible for the content, terms, privacy practices, or availability of those external sites. A link from Sweeps does not constitute an endorsement of everything on the destination site. You follow external links at your own discretion and should review the terms and privacy policy of any third-party site before providing personal information or making a purchase.
13. Limitation of Liability
Sweeps is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Sweeps and its operators disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
In no event shall Sweeps be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of this site or from any platform listed on it, including but not limited to loss of data, loss of revenue, or losses arising from reliance on information that has changed since our last review.
14. Privacy
