Sweepstakes Rules

These Sweepstakes Rules explain who can participate at Yay Casino US, how Sweeps Coins (SC) work, how to get SC (including free entry options), and what’s required to redeem prizes. This page is designed to be clear and easy to follow. If anything here conflicts with the official Terms or a specific promotion’s rules, the promotion’s rules and the platform Terms govern.

Eligibility Basics - Who Can Participate

Yay Casino US is available to eligible players physically located in the United States, subject to state restrictions. To participate, you must meet all of the following:

You are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your state of residence, whichever is higher).

You are physically located in an eligible U.S. state at the time you access the site and participate.

You can successfully complete identity and location verification when requested.

Participation is void where prohibited by law. Yay Casino US may restrict access in additional jurisdictions without notice to remain compliant.

Geographic Limitations - Restricted States

At the time of writing, Yay Casino US does not offer sweepstakes participation (SC play and/or prize redemptions) in the following states:

California - Connecticut - Delaware - Idaho - Michigan - Montana - Nevada - New Jersey - New York - Tennessee - Washington

If you travel, your eligibility can change based on your physical location. Using tools that disguise your location is not allowed and can result in disqualification and account suspension.

Account Registration Rules - One Account, Real Info, Real Player

To keep the sweepstakes fair and secure, account access is limited to one account per person. When you register, you must provide accurate and current information, including your legal name and contact details.

Accounts must not be shared, sold, transferred, or “rented” to anyone else. Creating multiple accounts - even if you use different emails, phone numbers, devices, or payment methods - can lead to account closure and the forfeiture of SC balances, promotional credits, and redemption requests.

Age Restrictions - No Exceptions

You must meet the minimum age requirement to use the platform. Yay Casino US may request proof of age at any point. If you cannot verify your age, you cannot participate in SC play or redeem prizes.

Coins Explained - Gold Coins vs Sweeps Coins

Yay Casino US uses two coin types:

Gold Coins (GC) are for entertainment play and have no cash value. GC gameplay is designed for social-casino fun.

Sweeps Coins (SC) are the promotional sweepstakes currency used to participate in sweepstakes-style gameplay where eligible wins may be redeemed for prizes, subject to verification and redemption rules.

SC redemptions follow the standard value of 1 SC = 1 USD, and the minimum redemption is typically $50. A 1x playthrough requirement applies to SC before redemption (meaning SC generally must be played at least once prior to being eligible for redemption).

How to Get Sweeps Coins - Free Methods and Optional Purchases

No purchase is necessary to enter or participate in sweepstakes promotions where available. You can obtain SC through free methods, and you may also receive SC as part of optional promotional bundles.

Common ways players may receive SC include:

Account sign-up and verification rewards (for example, rewards for completing registration, verifying email, and verifying phone number).

Daily login bonuses and streak rewards claimed through the Coin Store.

VIP or loyalty benefits based on platform activity.

Referral program rewards when a referred player completes qualifying actions, where permitted.

Limited-time promotions that credit SC as a bonus.

You may also have the option to purchase GC bundles, which can include promotional SC as a bonus. Purchasing does not increase your odds of winning, and purchase is not required to access free entry routes.

Free Entry (AMOE) - No Purchase Required Where Offered

Where an Alternate Method of Entry (AMOE) is offered, you can participate without making a purchase. AMOE requests must follow the posted instructions exactly (including any required information and formatting) to be valid. Yay Casino US may limit the number of AMOE requests accepted per player or per time period and may reject incomplete, duplicated, automated, or non-compliant submissions.

Because AMOE instructions can change for compliance reasons, always follow the current instructions shown on the site at the time you submit your request.

Sweepstakes Promotions - How Offers Work

Promotions may include welcome rewards, daily bonuses, referral offers, VIP perks, special events, and time-limited deals. Each promotion can have its own rules, including:

Eligibility requirements (such as location, verification status, or account standing)

Start and end times (including time zone references)

Coin type awarded (GC and/or SC)

Game eligibility (some rewards, like free spins, may apply to a specific title)

Limits (per person, per household, per device, or per promotion period)

Yay Casino US may modify, pause, or end promotions at any time, and may withhold promotional benefits if misuse or prohibited play is suspected.

For the current sign-up offer and active promos, see the Yay Casino US promotions area.

Participation Requirements - Playing With SC

To participate in sweepstakes gameplay, you must:

Have an active account in good standing

Be located in an eligible state

Use SC on eligible games

Follow all posted game rules and promotion terms

Some games or features may be unavailable in certain jurisdictions. Gameplay that appears to be automated, manipulated, or designed to exploit promotions can trigger review and enforcement actions.

Prize Redemptions - What You Need to Redeem SC

To redeem prizes from SC, you must meet all redemption requirements, which typically include:

Minimum redemption amount (commonly $50)

1x SC playthrough completed

Successful identity verification (KYC)

Location verification (to confirm you are in an eligible jurisdiction)

Account status in good standing (no fraud flags, no duplicate accounts, no chargeback-related restrictions)

Redemptions may be processed via available payout methods shown on the site. If a chosen method is unavailable or fails, Yay Casino US may request an alternative method or additional documentation.

Verification (KYC) - Identity, Age, and Location Checks

To protect players and keep the sweepstakes compliant, Yay Casino US may require verification at registration, before certain promotions are credited, and/or before redemption. Verification can include:

Government-issued photo ID

Proof of address (such as a utility bill or bank statement)

Phone and email verification

Geolocation checks

If your information does not match, documents are unclear, or verification fails, your redemption may be delayed or denied. Submitting altered, stolen, or third-party documents will result in suspension and potential permanent closure.

Payments, Purchases, and Chargeback Rules

If you choose to buy GC bundles, you must use payment methods authorized in your name. Yay Casino US may support card payments such as Visa and MasterCard, and may also offer crypto options depending on availability and compliance.

Chargebacks, payment disputes, or suspicious payment behavior may lead to:

Immediate suspension of redemption eligibility

Removal of promotional SC tied to the disputed transaction

Account restrictions or closure after review

Prohibited Activities - What Can Get You Disqualified

To keep gameplay fair, the following behaviors are prohibited and may result in disqualification, forfeiture of SC and winnings, and account suspension or closure:

Multiple accounts or identity misrepresentation

Using VPNs, proxies, GPS spoofing, or any location-masking tools

Automated play, bots, scripts, or macro tools

Collusion, chip/coin dumping, or coordinated play designed to transfer value

Exploiting bugs, glitches, or promotion loopholes

Abusing promotions (including repetitive pattern play intended to farm bonuses)

Fraudulent referrals or self-referrals

Selling, transferring, or gifting accounts or balances

If prohibited activity is suspected, Yay Casino US may pause your account, cancel redemptions, and request additional verification.

Fraud Prevention and Security - How Reviews Work

Yay Casino US uses monitoring and manual reviews to detect unusual activity. Reviews may be triggered by things like rapid account creation, repeated device identifiers, mismatched location signals, or inconsistent identity details.

During a review, your account may be temporarily restricted while verification is completed. If the review confirms compliant play, access is restored. If violations are confirmed, enforcement actions may include forfeiture, disqualification from promotions, or closure.

Account Suspension or Disqualification - Common Reasons

You may be suspended or disqualified if:

You are underage or cannot verify age

You are located in a restricted jurisdiction

You provided false registration details

You created more than one account

You attempted to redeem before completing verification

Your activity indicates fraud, automation, or promotion abuse

You initiated payment disputes or chargebacks tied to promotional benefits

When enforcement is applied, Yay Casino US may void SC balances, cancel pending redemptions, and remove promotional credits associated with the violation.
