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.
7,500 GC + 3 SC Homepage hero reads "GC 7.5k FREE on Sign Up" (read signed out 2026-10-19). The page states no Sweeps Coins figure; the stored 3 SC comes from the 2026-07-17 read (Sweeps Rules staged up to 3.55 free SC over the first three days with daily login) and was not re-verified today.
100,000 GC + 2 SC Welcome bonus of 100,000 Crown Coins and 2 free Sweeps Coins when you register, no purchase necessary, per the operator help center article Is there a welcome bonus available when signing up (read 2026-07-17).

The practical differences
These are separate operations in our records: PlayFame is operated by PlayFame Operations Limited and Crown Coins by Sunflower Limited, so the factor gaps above compare two different companies, not one owner's two skins.
The cash-out bar is not the same: Crown Coins lets you request a redemption from $50, while PlayFame makes you reach $75 first. If you play small, that gap decides which side actually pays you.
We have a documented no-purchase entry route for PlayFame (mail-in postcard) but none confirmed for Crown Coins yet. That is a documentation gap on our side, not proof the route is missing.
PlayFame: minimum redemption $75. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by PlayFame Operations Limited.
Crown Coins: minimum redemption $50. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by Sunflower Limited.
