State Restrictions

Sweepstakes casinos operate under a different legal framework than traditional real-money online casinos. Instead of placing wagers with cash, you play with two virtual currencies:

• Gold Coins (GC) for free-play entertainment only (no cash value)
• Sweeps Coins (SC) that can be redeemed for prizes (at 1 SC = $1)

Because Sweeps Coins can be redeemed, some states treat sweepstakes-style promotions more strictly than others. That is why Tang Luck Casino - operated by SpinShift Ltd and launched in December 2025 - must restrict access in certain jurisdictions, even if the games look similar everywhere else.

Before you register, claim the 100 GC + 0.6 SC welcome gift, or plan a redemption, you should confirm you are eligible in your current location. Rules can change, and your eligibility is based on where you physically are when you play, not where you “live on paper.”

Eligible States: Where You Can Register, Play, and Redeem

Tang Luck Casino is available in 39 states. If you are located in an eligible state, you can generally:

• Create an account and complete identity checks when needed
• Claim promotions and free SC offers (like scratch cards)
• Play slots, table games, arcade games, and live dealer titles
• Redeem Sweeps Coins after meeting the 1x playthrough requirement

Even in eligible states, features can still be limited by policy, verification status, payment method rules, or temporary compliance reviews.

Restricted States: Where Participation Is Not Available

At this time, Tang Luck Casino is not available in the following states:

California, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, and Washington.

If you are physically located in any restricted state, you may be blocked from registering, logging in, playing with SC, claiming promotions tied to SC, or submitting redemptions. In many cases, even if you created your account while traveling in an eligible state, access may be limited as soon as your location shows you are in a restricted jurisdiction.

Temporary Restrictions: Why Access Can Change Without Much Warning

Not every restriction is permanent or statewide forever. “Temporary restrictions” can happen for a few reasons, including:

• A state changes its interpretation of sweepstakes promotions
• The platform updates its compliance policies
• A payment provider, identity service, or geolocation tool flags an issue
• You are near a state border and the system cannot confidently verify your location

If Tang Luck Casino cannot verify that you are in an eligible location, it may restrict SC gameplay or redemptions until the check is successful. This can feel inconvenient, but it is one of the main ways sweepstakes platforms stay compliant.

How Geographic Verification Works (And Why It’s Required)

To enforce state-by-state rules, Tang Luck Casino may use location verification technologies. These can include a mix of:

• Internet Protocol address checks to estimate your region
• Device location services (when you grant permission)
• Wi-Fi and network data to confirm you are not spoofing your location
• Identity verification and address checks to support compliance

In practice, you might see a “location required” message, be prompted to enable location services, or be asked to disconnect from tools that mask your location. If you are using a virtual private network or similar technology, the system may treat your location as unverified and deny access to SC features, promotions, or redemptions.

Account Limitations You Might See in Restricted Jurisdictions

If you attempt to use Tang Luck Casino while physically located in a restricted state, the platform may apply one or more limitations, such as:

• Blocking sign-ups and new account creation
• Preventing Sweeps Coin gameplay while still allowing Gold Coin social play
• Disabling bonuses that award SC (including scratch cards and mail-in crediting until you return to an eligible state)
• Blocking prize redemptions and redemption requests

Because SC redemptions involve compliance checks, location and identity verification can also be required at the redemption stage, not just at sign-up.

Traveling or Moving: What Happens If Your Location Changes?

Eligibility is not a “set it and forget it” rule. If you travel, relocate, or even commute across a border, your access can change the moment the platform detects you are in a different jurisdiction.

Here are common scenarios:

If you travel into a restricted state You may be logged out, blocked from playing with SC, or prevented from redeeming prizes until you return to an eligible state. Your account typically remains yours, but features can pause.

If you move to a restricted state You may lose ongoing access to SC features, promotions, and redemption options. In some cases, you may be asked to stop participating altogether while in that jurisdiction.

If you are traveling through a restricted state (airport, hotel stop, road trip) You can still be restricted, even if you are only there briefly. If you need to cash out, it is smarter to submit redemption requests while you are physically located in an eligible state and your location can be verified cleanly.

If you are near a border Geolocation tools can occasionally misread your location. If you are right along a border, try switching from cellular data to Wi-Fi (or vice versa), enabling location services, and closing and reopening the browser or app.

How State Rules Can Affect Gameplay, Promotions, SC, and Redemptions

State restrictions are not only about whether you can log in. They can affect nearly every part of the experience, especially anything tied to Sweeps Coins.

Gameplay availability In eligible states, you can typically use both GC and SC across slots, table games, arcade games, and live dealer games. In restricted states, SC gameplay may be unavailable.

Promotions and free SC offers Tang Luck Casino offers multiple SC pathways, including the no-deposit welcome gift (100 GC + 0.6 SC), scratch cards, and mail-in entries. In restricted states, SC promotions are generally not available, and promotional crediting can be paused until eligibility is confirmed.

Sweeps Coin usage rules SC must complete a 1x playthrough before redemption, and SC can expire 90 days after your last login. If you are unable to access your account for a period due to being in a restricted jurisdiction, it is worth monitoring timelines so you do not accidentally lose SC due to inactivity.

Prize redemption and payout policies Redemptions are typically limited to one request per 24 hours, with a daily cap of $10,000. A 5% redemption fee applies, capped at $250. Location verification may be re-checked during redemption, and payouts are generally processed within 24 hours with a 3-day payout guarantee, depending on method.

Payment methods and redemption routing Tang Luck Casino supports Apple Pay, bank transfer, MasterCard, PayPal, and Visa for purchases. Redemption methods may depend on your previous purchase method, and bank transfers can take up to 10 business days. None of this matters if you are in a restricted state at the time you attempt to redeem.

How to Check Your Eligibility Before You Play

If you want to avoid surprise lockouts, do these quick checks before you register or submit a redemption:

• Confirm you are not physically located in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, or Washington
• Turn on device location services, if prompted
• Avoid using tools that mask or alter your location
• If you are close to a border, verify your network connection and refresh your session

When in doubt, the safest move is to pause SC gameplay and ask support to confirm whether your current location is eligible.

Staying Up to Date on State Changes (Without Obsessing Over It)

Sweepstakes casino availability can change as laws evolve and platforms adjust compliance policies. To stay informed:

• Re-check the restrictions list before big promos, purchases, or redemptions
• Watch for updates in on-site terms, promotions pages, or account notifications
• If you travel often, verify eligibility each time you play in a new state

If you are planning a large redemption, it is smart to confirm your location and account status first, especially if you are away from home.
