Sweeps Coins

Sweeps Coins (often shown as SC) are SportZino Casino’s promotional currency used in its sweepstakes-style model. When you play eligible games with SC, your wins can potentially become eligible for prize redemption (subject to the site’s rules, verification, and location eligibility).

SportZino also offers Gold Coins (GC), which are designed for entertainment-style play. Understanding the difference between SC and GC is the key to knowing what you’re playing for and why.

What Sweeps Coins Are (In Plain Terms)

Sweeps Coins are promotional entries used for gameplay on eligible casino-style games and sports predictions at SportZino. If you win while using SC, those winnings are tracked as Sweeps Coins in your account, and they may be eligible to redeem for prizes if you meet the requirements in the rules.

Think of SC as the “sweepstakes side” of the platform: it’s the currency tied to redemption eligibility.

How the Sweepstakes Model Works at SportZino

SportZino operates using a sweepstakes model commonly used by sweepstakes casinos:

You can play using virtual coins, and Sweeps Coins are provided through promotional methods (including free methods). When you use SC on eligible games and win, your SC balance can increase. If you meet redemption eligibility rules (including playthrough requirements for bonus SC), you can request a prize redemption.

Gold Coins are separate and are primarily for gameplay and entertainment value within the platform.

How Players Can Get Sweeps Coins on SportZino

SportZino provides SC through a mix of free promotions and promotional coins that may be included with Gold Coin purchases. Offers can change, and some are tied to tasks or limited-time events, but these are confirmed ways SC may be available at SportZino.

Welcome offers and sign-up tasks (no purchase required)

SportZino’s welcome offer can award SC in stages as you complete specific sign-up actions (for example, registration and other account set-up tasks). SportZino also lists an optional bonus code (WINBIGNOW) connected to this welcome offer, and some users may qualify for additional SC via an affiliate or exclusive link if applicable.

Because these bonuses are staged, you typically need to complete each required task to receive each portion of SC.

Daily login bonuses and recurring promos

SportZino runs a Daily Login Bonus that awards both GC and SC when you log in, with an increasing streak reward over several days before it resets. There are also recurring events such as Daily Events Arena, Weekly Prize Draws, and the Weekly Events Showcase that can award GC and SC depending on the promotion rules and your participation.

Refer-a-friend rewards

SportZino has a refer-a-friend program that can award SC, with the amount tied to the referred friend’s first Gold Coin purchase amount. To qualify, the friend needs to sign up through your referral link and complete the required purchase actions described by the promotion.

Promo codes and app-specific offers

SportZino may provide promo codes that award SC. One confirmed app-related code is GROPL2025, which is redeemed inside the app’s bonuses area (availability can depend on the promotion’s terms).

Mail-in request (alternative method of entry)

SportZino lists a mail-in option that awards 5 SC per successful request. This is a free method of receiving Sweeps Coins, and the detailed instructions are provided in the sweepstakes rules (SportZino references Section 3.2.4) and include mailing to SSPS LLC, 850 New Burton Road, Suite 201, Dover, DE 19904.

Are Sweeps Coins Purchased Directly?

SportZino generally does not present SC as something you buy “directly.” Instead, Sweeps Coins may be provided as promotional coins, including as part of certain offers associated with Gold Coin purchases (for example, first purchase packages) and through free promotional methods like daily logins and mail-in requests.

In other words: purchases are typically for Gold Coins, with Sweeps Coins offered as promotional add-ons when available under the promotion’s terms.

How Sweeps Coins Are Used in Gameplay

Sweeps Coins are used to enter eligible games at SportZino, including casino-style games and sports predictions. When you select SC as your play currency (instead of GC), your wagers and winnings are tracked in Sweeps Coins.

If you’re new, the simplest way to avoid confusion is to check which coin type is active before you play. Using the wrong coin type changes what your wins can be used for.

Sweeps Coins vs Gold Coins: What’s the Real Difference?

Sweeps Coins and Gold Coins are separate balances with different purposes:

Gold Coins (GC) are used for standard social-style gameplay and promotions on the platform. They are designed for entertainment play.

Sweeps Coins (SC) are used for sweepstakes-entry gameplay on eligible titles. SC play is the pathway that may lead to prize redemption eligibility, depending on the rules and whether your SC is redeemable.

SportZino also ties loyalty tracking to both currencies: you earn 1 Loyalty Point for every 1 SC played or every 100,000 GC played, and tiers are updated weekly.

Can Sweeps Coins Be Redeemed for Prizes?

Yes - SportZino allows SC redemption for prizes, as long as you meet the platform’s eligibility requirements and your account is in good standing. SportZino’s policy also specifies minimum redemption thresholds depending on the prize type:

Cash prizes via bank transfer: minimum 50 SC Gift cards/vouchers: minimum 10 SC

SportZino also publishes maximum redemption limits per transaction that can vary by jurisdiction, and notes that redemption limits may differ in certain states.

Redemption Eligibility Rules You Should Know

SportZino’s redemption eligibility is not just about your balance - it’s also about whether the SC is considered eligible and whether you’ve met any usage requirements tied to how you received it.

Playthrough requirements (1x on bonus SC)

SportZino states that bonus Sweeps Coins carry a 1x playthrough requirement before they become eligible for redemption. That means if your SC came from a bonus or promotion, you generally need to play those bonus SC through at least once on eligible games before they can be redeemed.

Account and identity verification

Expect account validation steps before redemptions are approved. While the exact documents requested can vary, sweepstakes platforms typically require identity and eligibility checks to help confirm the account holder and location. If SportZino requests verification, completing it promptly helps prevent redemption delays or account restrictions.

Location restrictions (United States + restricted states)

SportZino is available in the United States, but it lists restricted states. Based on SportZino’s promotion terms, the restricted states include:

Georgia Idaho Michigan Nevada New York Washington

Because eligibility can change, always confirm your current eligibility inside the platform and in the rules before you plan around a redemption.

Expiration and inactivity rules

SportZino states that unused GC and SC can be forfeited after 120 days of account inactivity, and that an email notice is sent before forfeiture. If you’re collecting SC through daily bonuses or mail-in requests, staying active matters.

Where to Check Your Sweeps Coins Balance

Your Sweeps Coins balance is shown inside your SportZino account as a separate balance from Gold Coins. Look for the SC indicator in your wallet/balance area, and double-check the coin selector before you spin or place a sports prediction so you know which currency you’re using.

Where to Find the Official Rules and Get Help

For the most accurate details on SC eligibility, mail-in instructions, redemption steps, and state restrictions, refer to SportZino’s official sweepstakes rules within the site/app. If you need direct assistance, SportZino support is available via chat and email at support@sportzinocasinos.com.

Once you understand the split between SC (sweepstakes gameplay) and GC (entertainment play), it’s much easier to choose the right promotions, meet playthrough requirements, and keep your account ready when you decide to redeem.
