Gold Coins

Gold Coins (also called “Gems” on Sweepz Casino) are a social, in-app currency used for entertainment play. They let you spin, play, and enjoy games in a social mode without affecting any sweepstakes balances. Gold Coins do not represent cash, and they are not the same as the sweepstakes currency that can be redeemed for prizes.

How Gold Coins fit the sweepstakes casino model

Sweepstakes casinos operate with two parallel currencies: a redeemable sweepstakes currency you can play for prize eligibility, and a social currency for pure entertainment. Gold Coins serve the entertainment side. They power casual gameplay, bonuses, and cosmetic or meta progress within games, while Sweepz Coins serve the sweepstakes mechanics that can lead to prize redemptions after meeting the platform’s rules.

How players may receive Gold Coins

Sweepz Casino can credit Gold Coins through a few routes. Confirmed ways include:

• Coin package purchases, which often include Gems alongside sweepstakes credits.
• Promotional bundles and first-purchase offers that add Gold Coins with paid packages. Promotions and giveaways may also grant Gold Coins from time to time. Note that the New Player Welcome Offer on Sweepz provides 100 Free Sweepz Coins, which are the sweepstakes currency—not Gold Coins. Mail-in Alternative Method of Entry and daily login rewards, as currently listed, apply to Sweepz Coins.

Can Gold Coins be purchased?

Yes. Sweepz offers optional coin packages where purchasing a package can include both Sweepz Coins and Gold Coins (Gems). Package pricing and the exact bonus mix are shown in the app when you opt in to buy. Check the purchase screen for confirmed package contents and any minimum payment requirements before buying.

How Gold Coins are used to play eligible games

Gold Coins are spent on the social versions of eligible titles in the Sweepz game library. When a game offers an Entertainment or “Gold Coins” play option, use Gold Coins to join rounds, unlock features, or play non-sweepstakes sessions. Which specific games support Gold Coin play can change by title and provider, so look for the Gold Coin option on each game’s play screen.

What types of games can be played with Gold Coins

Eligible titles depend on the platform’s current catalog. Sweepz’s game mix includes casual categories such as puzzle, word, arcade, and action-style games along with slot-style and arcade titles from providers on the platform. If a game shows a Gold Coin play option, you can use Gold Coins there. For sweepstakes-eligible categories and details, check the game’s information panel.

How Gold Coins differ from Sweepz Coins

The two currencies serve different purposes:

• Gold Coins (Gems): Social, entertainment-only currency, no cash value, used for fun play and in-game progression. They are not subject to sweepstakes redemption rules.
• Sweepz Coins: Sweepstakes currency that can be converted into prizes or cash redemptions after meeting platform rules, such as playthrough and minimum redemption thresholds, and after account verification. Sweepz specifically credits new accounts with 100 Free Sweepz Coins as a welcome offer; this is separate from any Gold Coin entitlements.

Do Gold Coins have cash value or redeem for prizes?

Gold Coins do not have cash value and are not redeemable for cash prizes or gift cards. Only Sweepz Coins are the sweepstakes currency that may be redeemed for prizes once you meet the platform’s eligibility, minimum redemption thresholds, and verification requirements.

Can Gold Coins be exchanged or converted into Sweepz Coins?

Gold Coins are not automatically convertible into Sweepz Coins. Occasionally, a promotional package may include both currencies as a bundle, but direct conversion from Gold Coins into Sweepz Coins is not a standard feature unless a specific promotion states otherwise. Always read the promotion terms before assuming any exchangeability.

How to check your Gold Coin balance

Your Gold Coin balance appears in your account area or wallet inside the Sweepz app or website. Look for the Gems, Gold Coins, or wallet indicator after you log in. If you can’t find it, visit the FAQ or start a live chat with customer support for guidance.

Do Gold Coins expire

Sweepz’s published expiry information applies explicitly to Free Sweepz Coins, which can expire after prolonged account inactivity. Gold Coin expiration is not specified in those public details. Because policies can change, check the official rules or your account terms for any Gold Coin expiration information before you rely on them.

Limits, restrictions, and play impacts

• Age and state rules apply: players must meet the platform’s age requirement, and sweepstakes participation excludes residents of Idaho, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana, and Washington.
• Sweepz enforces verification (KYC) for prize redemptions; Sweepz Coins require verification before cash payouts.
• Wagering and playthrough terms apply to Sweepz Coins—Free Sweepz Coins are subject to a 1x playthrough requirement before becoming redeemable. Gold Coins do not carry sweepstakes playthrough requirements because they are for social play.
• Playing with Gold Coins does not normally affect your Sweepz Coin balance or your eligibility for sweepstakes prizes, unless a promotion explicitly links the two. Read the promotional terms to be sure.

Where to find rules or get help

For official rules, redemption thresholds, and exact promotion terms, consult Sweepz Casino’s official rules and promotion pages inside the app or on the site. If you need help, use the FAQ, start a live chat, or email support@sweepz.com.

Gold Coins are a straightforward way to enjoy social gameplay without impacting your sweepstakes balances. If your goal is prize eligibility or cash redemptions, focus on Sweepz Coins and the platform’s redemption rules; if you want casual, cost-controlled fun, Gold Coins are the social option to use.
