By classifying themselves as “sweepstakes,” social casino sweepstakes apps can incorporate extensive real-world reward systems. The core gameplay of social casino sweepstakes apps is nearly identical to that of traditional social casino apps: Players bet currency to spin slots or play other games of chance, such as card or dice.
The key difference is that social casino sweepstakes apps allow players to redeem one of their currencies for real-money prizes. To avoid being classified as online casinos, which are banned in most states, social casino sweepstakes apps don’t allow players to buy this redeemable currency directly, making it legally considered “free.”
