What Our Ratings Are — and Are Not

Every rating and ranking on SweepsPick is the opinion of our editorial team. Ratings are not lab-tested measurements, certifications, or endorsements — they are our honest editorial judgment based on the criteria below. Reasonable people can weigh these factors differently and reach different conclusions.

How We Rate Casinos

Our editorial ratings weigh four main factors:

  • Bonus value — the size and usefulness of welcome offers, free-coin programs, and no-purchase entry (AMOE) options, as published in each casino's terms.
  • Game selection — the variety and quality of slots, table games, and other titles a casino offers.
  • Redemption terms — minimum thresholds, playthrough requirements, and published redemption methods and timelines.
  • User feedback — publicly available player reviews, complaints, and community sentiment about each platform.

We base reviews on each casino's published terms, promotions, and publicly available information. Bonuses and terms change frequently — we update pages when we become aware of changes, but always verify current offers on the casino's own website before signing up.

Editorial Independence

SweepsPick may earn affiliate commissions from some casinos (see our Affiliate Disclosure). Commercial relationships never determine ratings or rankings. No casino can pay for a better score or a higher position on our lists.

Corrections Policy

We want everything on this site to be accurate. If you spot an error — an outdated bonus, a wrong redemption threshold, an incorrect statement about state availability — email us at editorial@sweepspick.com.

  • We review correction requests and fix confirmed errors as quickly as we can.
  • Material corrections are made directly on the affected page.
  • We do not remove or alter honest criticism at a casino's request.

What We Won't Publish

  • Claims we cannot substantiate — including invented statistics or fake review counts.
  • Paid content disguised as editorial reviews.
  • Guarantees of winnings — sweepstakes outcomes are chance-based, and most players should expect entertainment, not profit.

Age & Responsible Gaming

Sweepstakes casinos are for adults: 18+ (21+ in some jurisdictions). Play should always be for entertainment. If purchases or play stop being fun, call the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER or see our Responsible Gaming page for resources.
