Factor by factor

A factor is one of the seven things we score. Edge names the site with the higher score on that factor, and by how much. A tie stays a tie. Where we have not scored a factor on both sides it reads as not scored yet, which is a gap in our work and never a zero for the site.

These figures come from the same corpus as the sweepstakes payout study, our running log of every cash-out we request with our own money.

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.

Sweepshark

125,000 GC 125,000 coins signup bundle per the operator homepage banner, no purchase necessary (read 2026-07-17). The site currently runs in coins-only social mode: the live terms contain no sweepstakes provisions and no Sweeps Coins are granted.

VegasWay

250,000 GC 250K Gold Coins for registration per the operator promotions page, no purchase necessary (read 2026-07-17). The site currently runs in gold-coin-only social mode: no sweeps rules page exists and the footer states the platform does not involve monetary rewards.

The practical differences

Start with what the branding hides: both casinos are operated by UTech Solutions LLC. You are not choosing between two companies, you are choosing between two storefronts of one, so the deciding factors are the terms and the evidence on this page, not the logo.

Both set the same redemption minimum, $25, so neither gives a small-balance player an easier exit.

Sweepshark: minimum redemption $25. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by UTech Solutions LLC.

VegasWay: minimum redemption $25. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by UTech Solutions LLC.
