What Global Poker’s Rules Say

Global Poker is a VGW Group platform owned and operated by VGW GP Limited of Malta, with its sweepstakes promotions sponsored by VGW Games Limited. Players use Gold Coins for Standard Play, which cannot be redeemed. Sweeps Coins are used for Promotional Play, and those won through play can be redeemed at US$1 each.

The September 16, 2026 Sweeps Rules (version 25.1) require players to be at least 21. They exclude 16 states from Promotional Play, but Indiana residents may still use Sweeps Coins in peer-to-peer poker. Six states (CT, DE, MI, MT, NV, WA) are excluded from the platform entirely.

No purchase is needed. The rules list bonus Sweeps Coins with Gold Coin packs, a daily bonus, Facebook giveaways and an online entry request worth 5 Sweeps Coins. Sweeps Coins normally need to be played once before redemption, though the operator may require up to 20 plays.

Prize redemptions start at 50 Sweeps Coins, as cash or gift cards. Identity verification must be completed before a redemption is processed. The two documents disagree on Sweeps Coin expiry: the rules say 90 days after the last login, while the terms say 60 days.
