What SOPO’s Rules Say

SOPO offers poker with Gold for social play and Sweeps Coins for prize play. The published terms and sweepstakes rules identify Odysseus Software Company, LLC as the operator and sponsor. The website footer instead uses Odysseus Software Company, Inc.; the company field follows the legal documents.

The rules require US residency and a minimum age of 18, and name 17 excluded states. Free SC can be obtained through compliant handwritten postal requests worth 5 SC, using a one-time request code, or through announced no-cost social promotions. The public How to Play page describes redemption of Sweeps Coins to US dollars through a bank transfer.

SC must normally be played once before redemption, although the operator can require additional plays. Winners must pass eligibility verification, with identity documents potentially required. Only one redemption request is processed in a five-day period. The terms expire virtual coins after 60 consecutive days without virtual-coin gameplay. No numerical redemption minimum or quantified welcome offer was found in the reviewed public pages and PDFs.

Gaps and Limits

  • Only one redemption request is processed per five-day period
  • No numerical redemption minimum or quantified welcome offer is published in the reviewed materials
  • The legal PDFs identify an LLC while the website footer uses Inc.
  • The rules exclude New York but retain a New York prize-cap clause; eligibility follows the explicit exclusion list
