Sign-up bonus
GC are Gold Coins: play money, never worth cash. SC are Sweeps Coins: those are the ones that can be turned into money, once you have played them through and reached the site's cash-out minimum. A bigger pile of GC is not more money.

The practical differences
These are separate operations in our records: Gains is operated by GamerGains Labs, Inc. and Pulsz by Yellow Social Interactive Limited, so the factor gaps above compare two different companies, not one owner's two skins.
Both set the same redemption minimum, $100, so neither gives a small-balance player an easier exit.
Both keep a documented no-purchase entry route open (mail-in postcard), which is the baseline a legitimate sweepstakes has to meet.
