What Chumba Casino’s Rules Say
Chumba Casino is a VGW social casino owned and operated by VGW Malta Limited, with its sweepstakes promotions run by VGW Games Limited. Gold Coins are used for Standard Play and cannot be redeemed; Sweeps Coins are used for Promotional Play, and Sweeps Coins won through play can be redeemed for prizes at US$1 each.
The September 16, 2026 Sweeps Rules (version 26.1) require players to be at least 21 and exclude 16 states from Promotional Play. Six of those states (CT, DE, MI, MT, NV, WA) are excluded from the site entirely, and Gold Coin purchases made there are voided.
No purchase is needed to take part. Besides bonus Sweeps Coins on Gold Coin packs, the rules describe a daily bonus, Facebook giveaways and an online entry request: a handwritten card photographed in the app, worth 5 Sweeps Coins per valid request. Sweeps Coins normally need to be played once before redemption, though the operator may require up to 20 plays.
All prize redemptions require at least 100 Sweeps Coins. Accounts must be verified before a request, and extra checks apply above US$2,000. The operator's guide lists bank account, Skrill and Prizeout gift cards as redemption routes. Sweeps Coins expire 60 days after the player's last login.
