Indiana questions
Are sweepstakes casinos legal in Indiana?
State law prohibits dual-currency sweepstakes casinos here. Authority: Ind. Code § 4-33-10-7 (added by HB 1052 / HEA 1052, P.L. 153-2026, SECTION 15).
Can I still play free Gold Coin (GC) games in Indiana?
Indiana's action targets the dual-currency model: the Sweeps Coin (SC) side that can be redeemed for cash prizes. Free Gold Coin (GC) entertainment play, with no prize redemption, is generally not what these provisions prohibit. But many operators exclude Indiana entirely in their own terms rather than offer a GC-only mode.
