The log

Which sweepstakes casinos have closed, brand by brand

One row per brand, with what was announced, the document behind it and the date it was read. Most of the brands checked for this table have announced nothing; one has a shutdown date reported by trade press on 28 July 2026, and one, Sweeptastic, has already stopped operating as a playable platform.

How to read this log

Every row here is one of three things, and the row says which. Read means the operator's own document was opened and the sentence copied out of it. Reported means the date is circulating in trade press and has not been confirmed in an operator's own notice this site could open. Not announced means the document read contains no closure clause and no wind-down language at all — a statement about what was read, not a prediction about the future.

A shutdown date decides whether a balance leaves with a player, so the distinction is not a formality. A reported date has already been through at least one round of paraphrase before it reaches this table.

Most of the rows above say the same thing: nothing has closed. That is worth stating plainly, because a page titled sweepstakes casino closing invites the assumption that the whole industry is emptying out at once. On the documents this site could read, one named brand has a shutdown date attached to it and it is reported rather than confirmed by the operator; one brand, Sweeptastic, has actually stopped operating as a playable platform; and four more — Mega Bonanza, NoLimitCoins, Funrize and Jackpota — now show a current document with no sweepstakes mechanics in it, or two current documents that disagree with each other, without any dated notice explaining the change.

The one brand with a shutdown date

The reported schedule around LuckyLand Slots describes a staged wind-down rather than a single switch off: coin package sales stopping first, gameplay ending three weeks later, and access ending roughly three weeks after that. That staged shape is the ordinary pattern for a wind-down in this industry, not something unique to one brand.

None of those three dates has been read in an operator announcement our reader could open. What our reader could open, and what that showed instead, is set out in full on the LuckyLand Slots closing page. It stays a separate page rather than being folded fully into this table, because a log whose cells mix read and reported facts without marking the difference is worse than a shorter log.

Why a full shutdown and a quiet document edit look different up close

A full shutdown, on the one row in this table that has one, touches every part of the service at once: purchases, gameplay, redemption and access, each ending on its own date. A document edit touches one clause, on one date, and leaves the service running exactly as before. Confusing the two is the easiest way to misread this table — a brand whose terms were amended last month is not a brand that is closing, and a brand with no recent amendment at all is not necessarily a stable one, since some documents are simply reviewed less often than others.

When a product changes without a shutdown

Not every change to a sweepstakes brand's documents is a step toward closing. Zula Casino's Terms and Conditions were amended on 27 March 2025 to replace every reference to Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins with the term Virtual Coins, while the separate Sweepstakes Rules document, last updated 28 August 2026, still uses the original Gold Coin and Sweeps Coin names throughout. Two documents from the same operator, describing the same two-currency system, in different vocabulary — a fact worth knowing if you are trying to match an older article's terminology against the current rules.

A version history that shows frequent amendment, like Stake.us's ten revisions in under eighteen months, is also not evidence of an impending closure by itself. It is evidence that the underlying terms — including territory coverage — are actively maintained rather than fixed, which is a separate subject from whether the brand has announced it is closing.

A quieter kind of change sits between an amendment and a closure: a current terms document that simply stops describing a sweepstakes model at all, with no dated notice attached. Mega Bonanza and NoLimitCoins both read this way now, and Jackpota's two current documents — Terms of Service and Sweepstakes Rules — describe two different products. None of those three rows is marked as a closure in the table above, because none of the documents read for this site contains a closure clause; each is marked instead for exactly what was found.

Reading a version history as an early signal

A brand's own version log is one of the few places a reader can watch a document change before any headline reports it. Stake.us prints a version table at the end of its Terms and Conditions, and the pace of revision there is worth setting out on its own, separate from any single clause.

17.01 July 2026Recorded in the version table without further detail in the clause read
18.010 July 2026Addition of a further jurisdiction to the excluded-territories clause, stated directly in the version table

Ten revisions to one document in roughly seventeen months is a document under active, continuous maintenance rather than one left to age. Only the most recent entry states what changed in the version table itself; the earlier entries are recorded there without further detail in the clause read for this site. A version number and a date are still worth checking against whatever summary a reader has seen elsewhere, because a summary written against version 14.0 is describing a document that has since been revised four more times.

What a row in this table cannot tell you

A closure log is a record of what has been announced, not a forecast. No entry here should be read as a prediction about a brand that is not on it, and no absence from this table is a guarantee that nothing will change. None of the documents read for this site contains a clause about the service stopping for good rather than pausing — a silence set out in full, with the clauses that are and are not there, on the unredeemed coins page.

Where this fits

If your own platform is on a wind-down timetable, the sequence to work through is set out step by step, starting with finding the operator's own notice rather than a date from coverage. If you are weighing whether to move to another sweepstakes brand, a social casino, a licensed real-money casino or an offshore crypto casino once a balance is settled, the full comparison is on sites like sweepstakes casinos. Sister-brand ownership, which explains why several rows above share a parent company, is mapped on who owns what.

Has LuckyLand Slots actually closed?
Not as of the date this page was checked. A shutdown is reported by trade press, citing VGW, with a final access date of 14 September 2026, but no operator announcement stating this was found by our reader. The full account is on the LuckyLand Slots closing page.
Have Chumba Casino, Global Poker or LuckyLand Casino closed?
No closure has been announced for any of the three. All were listed as current brands on VGW's own corporate site as of the date read.
Do sweepstakes casinos close without any announcement?
Not that this log found. Every brand-wide shutdown recorded here was preceded by some form of public statement, even where that statement reached this site only through trade press rather than the operator directly.
What counts as a closure on this page versus a product change?
A closure ends a brand's ability to operate for players. A product change, such as a renamed currency or an amended clause, alters the terms without ending the service. This log records both and labels each row accordingly.
How often do sweepstakes casino terms actually change?
More often than most players notice. Stake.us's own version history shows ten revisions to its terms between February 2025 and July 2026, several of them adding to its territory clause.
