Terms and Conditions | Social Casinos

These terms and conditions explain how livewell.design ("Social Casinos", "we", "us", "our") operates, what the site does and does not offer, and what you agree to by using it. By browsing this site, reading our reviews, or clicking through to any operator listed here, you accept the terms set out below. Please read them alongside our Responsible Gambling page before creating an account with any sweepstakes casino.

What Social Casinos Is — and What It Is Not

livewell.design is an independent information and comparison site focused on sweepstakes and social casinos operating in the United States. We publish research, rankings and write-ups such as our Sweepstakes Casinos: The Full List of Top Sites to help readers understand how the sweepstakes model works and how different platforms compare.

We are not a sweepstakes casino, a gambling operator, a payment processor or a legal advisory service. We do not host games, take deposits, issue Sweeps Coins, or process prize redemptions. Every platform mentioned on this site — including Spinblitz, Casino.Click, Free Spins, SplashCoins, Crown Coins, Lucky.me, Spree, Crash Duel, Mr Goodwin and FortuneWheelz — is operated by an independent third party, and your relationship with any of them is governed entirely by that operator's own terms, privacy policy and sweepstakes rules, not by this site.

How Our Rankings and Offer Information Are Compiled

Our rankings and editorial ratings are based on publicly available information about each platform, including its stated welcome offers, coin structures, game libraries and terms as published by the operator at the time of review. Commission arrangements with an operator do not influence its position in our rankings; a platform can appear high or low on our list regardless of whether we have a commercial relationship with it.

Because operator terms, coin values, eligible states, and promotional details change frequently, we cannot guarantee that every figure or condition shown on this site remains current at the moment you read it. Always confirm the specific terms of an offer — including any minimum age, eligible states, redemption thresholds, and expiry dates — directly on the operator's own site before signing up or making a purchase.

The Sweepstakes Model, in Plain Terms

Sweepstakes casinos are not real-money gambling sites. They typically operate a dual-currency system: a "Gold Coins" type currency that is used for entertainment-only play and generally cannot be redeemed for prizes, and a "Sweeps Coins" type currency that can, under an operator's specific terms, potentially be redeemed for cash or prizes once eligibility and identity checks are met. Where this site describes an offer as involving free coins, welcome bundles, or sign-up bonuses, that description refers to virtual currency provided under the operator's own promotional rules — not a cash payment, and not a guaranteed win.

Legitimate sweepstakes casinos generally offer a way to participate without making a purchase, often referred to as an Alternative Method of Entry (AMOE), such as a free mail-in request. Nothing on this site should be read as suggesting that buying coin packages is the only way to take part or to potentially redeem Sweeps Coins.

No Guarantee of Outcomes

Casino-style games, whether played with Gold Coins or Sweeps Coins, involve chance. Nothing on livewell.design implies or guarantees that you will win, redeem, or profit from using any platform we mention. We do not claim that any operator has the "best odds," "highest RTP," or "fastest payouts" — these are variable, operator-specific factors that you should verify independently, and past results on any platform say nothing about future outcomes.

Eligibility, Age and Availability

Participation in sweepstakes casinos is intended for adults only. Individual operators set their own minimum age requirement, commonly 18 or 21, and some apply a higher threshold in specific states. It is your responsibility to confirm the age requirement and eligibility rules of any platform before registering.

Sweepstakes casino availability varies by state. Some states permit most operators to serve residents; others have restricted or prohibited this model, and individual operators may choose not to serve certain states regardless of the legal position. Laws in this area change frequently. Nothing on livewell.design states or implies that any platform is legal in all fifty states, and you are responsible for checking an operator's eligible-states list and applicable state law before creating an account. This site does not provide legal advice, and you should not rely on it as a substitute for your own research or professional guidance.

Prize Redemption, Taxes and Verification

Where an operator allows Sweeps Coins to be redeemed for cash or prizes, this is typically subject to minimum redemption thresholds, identity verification (KYC) — usually a government-issued photo ID and sometimes proof of address — and the operator's own terms and conditions. Processing times, accepted payment methods (such as ACH bank transfer, supported online payment services, or gift card redemption), and any fees are set entirely by the operator, not by livewell.design.

Redeemed prizes may be subject to federal and state tax obligations. We do not provide tax advice; keep your own records of any redemptions and consult official IRS or state tax guidance, or a qualified tax professional, if you have questions about your obligations.

Use of This Site

You agree to use livewell.design for personal, non-commercial research purposes only.
You will not copy, republish or redistribute our content, reviews or rankings without permission.
You will not use this site if you are under the legal age to participate in sweepstakes promotions in your jurisdiction.
You understand that clicking through to a listed operator takes you to a third-party site with its own terms, and that livewell.design has no control over that site's content, security or availability.

Commercial Relationships and Independence

livewell.design may earn a commission when a reader signs up with an operator through a link on this site. This does not cost you anything extra, and it does not determine how a platform is ranked, reviewed or described. Our aim is to give an honest account of what each platform offers, including its limitations, whether or not a commercial relationship exists.

Limitation of Liability

livewell.design provides information "as is," without warranty of accuracy, completeness or timeliness. We are not liable for any loss, cost or damage arising from your use of this site, your decision to register with any operator listed here, or any dispute between you and a third-party platform. Any issue relating to an account, a coin balance, a redemption, or a payment must be raised directly with the operator concerned.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes in the sweepstakes casino industry, applicable law, or how this site operates. The date shown at the top of this page reflects when it was last updated. Continued use of livewell.design after changes are posted means you accept the revised terms.
