To enter the Sweepstakes, a Participant must access PlayGD Sweepstakes at https://playgdsweepstakes.com and sign in to their Customer Account. Once they have accessed PlayGD Sweepstakes, there are four potential ways for an Eligible Participant to collect Sweeps Coins:
- Receive Sweeps Coins as a free bonus when purchasing Gold Coins.
Each Participant may receive Sweeps Coins as a bonus upon the purchase of specifically marked packs of Gold Coins. Gold Coins can be used for social game play in PlayGD Sweepstakes. Gold Coins cannot be redeemed for prizes. The number of Sweeps Coins a Participant will receive as a bonus for each relevant Gold Coin purchase will be stated in the website purchase window. All purchases of Gold Coins are final, and no refunds will be given. - Receive Sweeps Coins when entering Sweeps Coins no-cost giveaway contests on the PlayGD Sweepstakes Social Media pages.
The Sponsor/Promoter regularly holds Sweeps Coins no-cost giveaway contests which Participants can enter by following the instructions provided in the contest. These giveaways may require sharing the Social Media posts or answering various game-related questions to be eligible for entry. The amount of Sweeps Coins given away will be stated on the applicable Sweeps Coins no-cost contest post and will be added to each contest winner’s Customer Account. - Receive Sweeps Coins by logging into your account.
Participants can receive free Sweeps Coins on a daily basis by taking the following steps (Hourly Bonus):- Sign into your Customer Account.
- Click “wallet,” then “hourly bonus.”
- Click the “claim” button at the bottom of the pop-up.
Participants can only claim an Hourly Bonus once per hour (the hourly clock resets every hour).
- Receive Sweeps Coins by sending a request by post.
Participants can receive free Sweeps Coins by obtaining a Postal Request Code and sending a standard postcard or piece of white paper (Request Card) which must be 4″ x 6″, unfolded, blank, and unlined and placed inside a stamped #10 envelope addressed in handwriting, to the following address and satisfying the requirements set out below:
Participants must:- Handwrite their return address on the front of the envelope and the words: “Sweepstakes Entries”; and
- Handwrite all the following on only one side of the Request Card inserted inside the envelope:
- In the top-left corner, one (and only one) unique one-time Postal Request Code (see clauses 3.4 and 3.5 of these Sweeps Rules for further information);
- Under the Postal Request Code, in the following order:
- Their full name as shown on their government-issued identification;
- The email address registered to their PlayGD Sweepstakes account;
- The return/residential address registered to their PlayGD Sweepstakes account; and
- The following statement: “I wish to receive Sweeps Coins to participate in the sweepstakes promotions offered by PlayGD Sweepstakes. By submitting this request, I hereby declare that I have read, understood, and agree to be bound by PlayGD Sweepstakes’ Terms and Conditions and Sweeps Rules.”
- FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, COMBINED REQUESTS SENT VIA PACKAGE OR PARCEL DO NOT MEET THE REQUIREMENTS SET OUT ABOVE AND ARE INVALID. There is a limit of one Request Card per outer envelope. For each Request Card a Participant submits in accordance with the above requirements, the Participant will receive 5 Sweeps Coins. The Sweeps Coins will be added to the Participant’s Customer Account.
NOTE: A Participant must ensure that their handwriting is legible. If the Participant’s handwriting is not legible, the entry will be void, and the Sweeps Coins will not be added to the Participant’s Customer Account. The legibility of a Participant’s handwriting will be determined by Sponsor/Promoter in its sole discretion.
THE REQUEST MUST ONLY BE MADE BY THE PARTICIPANT AND MUST BE POSTED FROM THE SAME STATE OR PROVINCE AS THE PARTICIPANT’S VERIFIED RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS. Requests made by any other individual or any entity (including but not limited to commercial sweepstakes subscription notification and/or entering services) or posted from a state or province different to the Participant’s verified residential address will be declared invalid, and Sweeps Coins will not be added to the Participant’s Customer Account.
Tampering with the entry process or the operation of the Sweepstakes, including but not limited to the use of any device or software to automate the Sweeps Coins request/entry process or to unfairly assist the Participant with meeting the handwriting requirement, is prohibited, and any requests/entries deemed by Sponsor/Promoter, in its sole discretion, to have been submitted in this manner will be void.
Where there is an issue or fault with an envelope used by a Participant to request free Sweeps Coins, such that it does, or is reasonably likely to, cause damage to, or otherwise adversely affect, equipment used or procedures implemented to process mailed-in requests (for example, handmade envelopes that are not suitable for machine processing due to poor quality or non-standard adhesive or paper), such entry will be void.
In the event a dispute regarding the identity of the individual who submitted a request or whether a request satisfies the requirements set out above cannot be resolved to Sponsor/Promoter’s satisfaction, the affected request/entry will be deemed ineligible.
A Postal Request Code is a unique combination of 12 digits that Participants can obtain by following the steps outlined in clause 3.5 of these Sweeps Rules. A Postal Request Code is unique, can only be used once, and expires 90 days after it is displayed. The purpose of a Postal Request Code is to assist with the efficient and effective processing of a Participant’s Request Card. Request Cards containing an expired Postal Request Code at the time of processing will be void.
A POSTAL REQUEST CODE CAN ONLY BE USED BY THE PARTICIPANT WHOSE CUSTOMER ACCOUNT WAS USED TO GENERATE THAT POSTAL REQUEST CODE. Any Participant suspected by Sponsor/Promoter to have directly or indirectly provided a Postal Request Code to another person may, in the sole discretion of Sponsor/Promoter, be disqualified and lose their eligibility to Participate in the Sweepstakes.
A Postal Request Code can be obtained by following each of these steps:
- Sign into your Customer Account.
- Click on the “Sweeps Rules” link at the footer.
- Click the hyperlinked “(Generated here)” text in clause 3.5 of these Sweeps Rules.
- The Postal Request Code is then displayed for a period to enable a Participant to record it on their Request Card.
- The amount of Sweeps Coins a Participant has will be displayed in their Customer Account on the website. The amount of Sweeps Coins to be allocated to Participants can be changed at any time by the Sponsor/Promoter in its sole discretion.
Sponsor/Promoter is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, or misdirected Sweeps Coins requests or allocations.
In the event of a dispute as to any registration of a Customer Account, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register the Customer Account will be deemed to be the Participant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned the email address by an internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address.
Use of any automated or other system(s) to Participate, to acquire Sweeps Coins, or play the games is prohibited and will result in disqualification and loss of eligibility to Participate in the games.
Sweeps Coins are only valid for sixty (60) days from the date a Participant last logged on to their Customer Account and will then automatically expire. Sweeps Coins may also be forfeited if a Participant’s Customer Account is closed for any reason, or at the Sponsor/Promoter’s discretion.
USING SWEEPS COINS TO PLAY GAMES
Participants with Sweeps Coins can use those Sweeps Coins to play games within PlayGD Sweepstakes for a chance to win additional Sweeps Coins. Sweeps Coins won through game play can be redeemed for real prizes.
Within PlayGD Sweepstakes, there are different games. The amount of Sweeps Coins required to play each game will be detailed next to the game. A Participant may be able to increase the amount of Sweeps Coins they play the game with so they can increase their potential winning eligibility. Only games played with Sweeps Coins provide the opportunity to redeem winnings for real prizes.
The prize that can be won while playing a game will be shown in PlayGD Sweepstakes by clicking the “Win Table” or “Pay Table” button, denominated as “Sweeps Coins”. Each Sweeps Coin that has been won through game play (rather than collected using one of the methods described in clause 3 of these Sweeps Rules) can be redeemed for a prize with value being equivalent to US$1.
Sponsor’s/Promoter’s decisions as to the administration and operation of the Sweepstakes, the game, and the amount of winnings are final and binding.
Unless Sponsor/Promoter requires otherwise, any Sweeps Coins allocated to a Participant are required to be played three times before they are eligible to be redeemed for prizes. Sponsor/Promoter may, in its sole discretion, require that any Sweeps Coins allocated to a Participant must be played a greater number of times (not exceeding 20) in any combination of Sweeps Coins games before they are eligible to be redeemed for prizes.
Sponsor/Promoter reserves the right to change the prize win rates and odds of any of the Sweepstakes at any time. A Participant can see the actual and any amended details by clicking on the “Win Table” or “Pay Table” button. It is a Participant’s responsibility to check the prize win rate on each occasion before they participate.
VERIFICATION AND CONFIRMATION OF POTENTIAL WINNERS
POTENTIAL SWEEPSTAKES WINNERS ARE SUBJECT TO VERIFICATION BY SPONSOR/PROMOTER (IN ANY MANNER IT MAY CHOOSE) AND THE DECISIONS OF SPONSOR/PROMOTER ARE FINAL AND BINDING IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE SWEEPSTAKES.
A PARTICIPANT IS NOT A WINNER OF ANY PRIZE, EVEN IF THE ONLINE SCREEN INDICATES THEY ARE, UNLESS AND UNTIL THE PARTICIPANT’S ELIGIBILITY AND THE POTENTIAL WINNING PLAY HAS BEEN VERIFIED AND THE PARTICIPANT HAS FULLY COMPLIED WITH THESE SWEEPS RULES AND BEEN NOTIFIED THAT VERIFICATION IS COMPLETE.
SPONSOR/PROMOTER WILL NOT ACCEPT SCREEN SHOTS OR OTHER PURPORTED EVIDENCE OF WINNING IN LIEU OF ITS VALIDATION PROCESS.
Potential prize winners must comply with these Sweeps Rules, and winning is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements. A potential prize winner may be required to sign and return to Sponsor/Promoter an affidavit/declaration of eligibility and liability/publicity release (except where prohibited) at a pre-arranged mutually convenient time.
If a potential winner cannot be contacted, fails to properly execute and return the affidavit/declaration of eligibility and liability/publicity release within the required time period (if applicable), fails to comply with these Sweeps Rules, or if the prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, that potential winner forfeits the prize.
In the event that a potential winner of a Sweepstakes prize is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor/Promoter may, in its sole discretion, reseed the prize back into the Sweepstakes.
PRIZES
A Participant’s Sweeps Coins balance is shown in the Participant’s Customer Account. Prizes are not awarded until redeemed. A Participant has no rights to Sweeps Coins that have not been redeemed.
Where a Participant has chosen to redeem prizes for cash, the payment will be made in USD to the financial account or online wallet from which you purchased Gold Coins, or if this is not technically possible, then to an alternative bank account you nominate. Sponsor/Promoter reserves the right to require the use of the same payment method for redemption of prizes as was used to purchase Gold Coins, or a specific payment method at Sponsor/Promoter’s discretion.
Where a Participant has chosen to redeem prizes for gift cards, the gift cards will be allocated to the email address that the Participant has registered against their Customer Account.
Sponsor/Promoter will only process a prize redemption if the redeemed value of the prize is US$100 or more (i.e., a minimum of 100 eligible Sweeps Coins). Consequently, a Participant’s Customer Account must have a balance of at least 100 Sweeps Coins before requesting a prize redemption.
TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR A SWEEPS COINS PRIZE OR A SWEEPS COINS PRIZE REDEMPTION:
- A PARTICIPANT MUST BE AN ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANT; AND
- THE PARTICIPANT’S DETAILS MUST MATCH THOSE OF THE PARTICIPANT’S CUSTOMER ACCOUNT.
In the states of New York and Florida, pursuant to applicable sweepstakes regulations, the maximum redemption value of any prize awarded in the form of Sweeps Coins for a single spin or play through participation in a sweepstakes is limited to Five Thousand United States Dollars (USD $5,000). Any prize exceeding this value shall be reduced to a maximum redemption value of USD $5,000.
In all other states, subject to specific platform terms and applicable state laws, the maximum redemption value of a prize awarded for a single spin or play varies, typically ranging from Ten Thousand United States Dollars (USD $10,000) to One Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (USD $100,000), unless otherwise specified by the sweepstakes operator.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain jurisdictions, including but not limited to Washington, where sweepstakes casinos are prohibited, and Idaho, where redemption of cash prizes is barred, impose stricter limitations or complete prohibitions on sweepstakes activities. Participants are advised to review our terms and conditions, as redemption limits, playthrough requirements, and Sweeps Coins expiration policies (typically sixty to ninety days from the date of last account activity) are subject to change.
Sponsor/Promoter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to limit a Participant’s redemption of Sweeps Coins to $1,000 USD per day or any other amount over any time that Sponsor/Promoter considers necessary to satisfy its regulatory obligations or the requirements of its partners and suppliers.
No more than the stated number of prizes will be awarded. Sponsor/Promoter is not responsible for any taxes or fees associated with a prize redemption. Participants are responsible for all applicable taxes and fees associated with prize receipt and/or redemption.
Sponsor/Promoter is not responsible for any foreign exchange transaction fees, charges, or related costs that may be incurred as a result of, or in relation to, a prize redemption, including but not limited to any losses or additional costs arising from foreign exchange fluctuations.
Sweeps Coins are not transferable, and no substitution will be made except as provided herein at the Sponsor’s/Promoter’s sole discretion. Sponsor/Promoter reserves the right to substitute the listed prize of equal or greater value for any reason owing to circumstances outside Sponsor’s/Promoter’s reasonable control.
Prize winners will be notified by private message or email.
