State-Law Articles & Location Notes
Read the full article for the source material, scope, and uncertainty described by its author.
| Jurisdiction | Article coverage | Research notes | What the article discusses | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Arizona (AZ) | Restrictions noted | Arizona's gaming department published a free-entry test for sweepstakes-style games and a June 2025 cease-and-desist list that names sweepstakes operators, and this is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| California (CA) | Restrictions noted | California's chaptered AB 831 makes dual-currency online sweepstakes games unlawful to operate or knowingly support, and this is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| Florida (FL) | Restrictions noted | Florida's attorney general sued major sweepstakes-casino operators in August 2026 over a dual-currency model, and this is general information about that filing, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| Georgia (GA) | Further checks needed | We did not fetch a Georgia opinion that decides dual-currency sweepstakes casinos, so this note stays with the model and the checks on the site in front of you, and it is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| Illinois (IL) | Restrictions noted | The Illinois Gaming Board has sent cease-and-desist letters calling online sweepstakes casinos illegal, including a February 2026 letter to Stake.us, and this is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| Michigan (MI) | Restrictions noted | Michigan's gaming board published a September 2025 notice ordering more illegal online casinos to exit, operators commonly block the state, and this is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| Nevada (NV) | Restrictions noted | Nevada's gaming chapter does not use the word sweepstakes, operators we checked block the state, and this is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| New Jersey (NJ) | Restrictions noted | New Jersey's chaptered A5447, approved August 15, 2025, targets pay-to-play sweepstakes including dual-currency prizes, and this is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| New York (NY) | Restrictions noted | New York chaptered S5935A on December 5, 2025, after the Attorney General moved against sweepstakes casinos, and this is general information, not legal advice. | View Guide | |
| North Carolina (NC) | Further checks needed | North Carolina's G.S. 14-306.4 bans sweepstakes on electronic machines the sponsor possesses, and whether a remote phone app is that device is not settled on the page we read. | View Guide | |
| Ohio (OH) | Further checks needed | Ohio's Revised Code restricts sweepstakes terminal devices at facilities, and we did not fetch a separate enacted ban on remote dual-currency sites. | View Guide | |
| Pennsylvania (PA) | Restrictions noted | We did not find sweepstakes casinos on the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board homepage we fetched, and one operator's terms already exclude the state. | View Guide | |
| Texas (TX) | Further checks needed | The Texas statutes page we fetched did not include Penal Code chapter 47's operative text, so this note does not invent a local citation. | View Guide | |
| Virginia (VA) | Further checks needed | The Virginia bill page we fetched did not return bill text, and the operator terms we read do not name the state. | View Guide | |
| Washington (WA) | Restrictions noted | Washington's RCW 9.46.240 makes transmitting gambling information by internet a class C felony outside authorized gambling, and operators we checked block the state. | View Guide |

State Guide Questions
Does a published state guide mean a casino is approved there?
No. A published guide means the article is available to read. The coverage label summarizes its introduction; it does not grant a license or establish eligibility at any operator.
What does “Restrictions noted” mean?
The published introduction describes a law, regulatory action, or operator restriction. Read the full article for its scope and the uncertainty it identifies.
Why do some states have no guide link?
Their articles have not been published in this library. We show the state in the directory without inventing a legal status or displaying draft content.
Where do the dates and details come from?
Dates and article text come from our published Sanity records. Read the operator’s current terms alongside the article; the directory is not a live eligibility check.
