What PICKEM’s Rules Say

PICKEM is operated by Joyloop, Inc. Its social casino uses nonredeemable Gold Coins and free Sweep Coins that can generate prizes. The same platform also offers collectible-card packs; this record covers the sweepstakes casino. The homepage advertises 50,000 GC plus 1 SC for new accounts.

The rules require US residency and a minimum age of 18, subject to the higher local age of majority in the terms. The help centre identifies 15 states where the social casino is unavailable, a wider list than the four named in the rules. A compliant handwritten mail-in request with a one-time postal code earns 2 SC.

SC normally require one play before redemption; the rules allow requirements as high as 30x. Identity and face verification are required for casino redemptions, which start at 100 SC. The help centre supports bank transfers and debit cards. The rules cap each request at US$2,500 and each monthly sweepstakes period at US$15,000, with a US$5,000 monthly cap for Florida; these are not daily limits.

Players may also convert eligible SC into the internal USD Wallet. The help centre says that conversion cannot be reversed and requires the wallet funds to be used to buy a card pack before resulting winnings can be withdrawn. Redemption fees can vary by method and processing speed.
