Gold Coins, abbreviated GC, are the standard entertainment currency at sweepstakes casinos. They are used purely for fun play, carry no monetary value, and can never be cashed out or redeemed.
Players can buy Gold Coin packages or collect them through daily login bonuses and promotions. Purchasing GC usually comes bundled with a free allotment of Sweeps Coins, which is the legal mechanism that keeps the model a promotion rather than gambling.
