Jackpota
Jackpota is a US sweepstakes casino that uses virtual coins in place of cash stakes. How the model works and where it is restricted.
US sweepstakes model, not a gambling licence
This brand is not licensed in the markets we cover (or only in part of them), so it has no Wayfinder Score. If you play there, you do not get the protections a local licence brings: limits, self-exclusion and a regulator to complain to.

How it works
Jackpota follows the sweepstakes pattern: players buy Gold Coins, which have no cash value, and receive Sweeps Coins as a bonus. Sweeps Coins won in games can be redeemed for cash prizes after identity checks. The lobby is made up of slots from well-known studios, with site-wide jackpots.
It is run by the group behind McLuck.
Where it stands
Jackpota holds no gambling licence in the markets we cover (US, UK, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Portugal, South Africa and Ontario). More US states have moved to ban or restrict sweepstakes casinos, and the list of excluded states changes. It is not open to residents of the UK or Europe.
Check the site's current state list before buying coins.
What to know
It plays like a slot site, and coin purchases add up quickly. The safeguards a licensed casino must provide are missing.
We do not score sweepstakes sites.
