CoinsBucks Review
CoinsBucks is a sweepstakes casino operated by CoinsBucks Gaming Ltd. that launched in 2024. As of February 2026, our rating is 4.2/10. This is one of the lower scores we assign, and the data behind it is specific: documented payout delays measured in weeks to months, redemption fees on every cashout, a missing AMOE (Alternative Method of Entry) despite US sweepstakes law requirements, and an operator identity that is not disclosed on the platform.
The dual-currency model uses Gold Coins (GC) for free play and Sweeps Coins (SC) for redeemable prizes at 1 SC = $1 USD. The platform is listed as not yet live in our research brief, which means player verification of any of the below is ongoing.
Bonuses & Promotions
8K GC + 3 SC is the no-purchase welcome offer. 3 SC = $3, which is comparable to Coins Royale and above Chumba's 2 SC. No promo code required.
The first-purchase offer is 100K GC + 14.99 SC for $9.99: $9.99 for 100,000 GC + 14.99 SC. That's $14.99 SC for $9.99, or $0.67 per SC on the purchase component. Moozi runs around $0.50-$0.67 per SC. On its face, the first-purchase SC value isn't exceptional.
The VIP program has 9 tiers with decreasing redemption fees as you advance. Entry tier charges 3% on redemptions. Higher tiers drop to 2%. Stake US charges no redemption fees. Pulsz charges no fees. WOW Vegas charges no fees. A 2-3% fee on every cashout across all VIP levels is a structural drain on player value that most established sweepstakes casinos don't impose.
The daily login bonus is 20K GC, which gives Gold Coins only, no SC. A free player has no daily SC accumulation path through login bonuses, which means the only path to redemption without purchasing is through gameplay wins.
Games & Providers
600 games across slots and originals (Mines, Dice, Plinko, Keno). No table games in the traditional sense, but the Mines, Dice, Plinko, and Keno originals fill an arcade-style niche. Providers are Pragmatic Play and Spade Gaming. Pragmatic Play is a top-tier name in sweepstakes. Spade Gaming covers the Asian-style arcade slot segment.
600 games is a decent count. Fortune Coins runs a similar range. Funrize is lower. The originals category distinguishes CoinsBucks from pure slot libraries like Clubs Casino and Coins Royale.

Platform Features
No mobile app. Browser play on desktop and mobile.
The 9-tier VIP program is more granular than most sweepstakes platforms. Crown Coins Casino runs 7 tiers. Stake US runs a separate VIP structure. The CoinsBucks program progression requires purchasing at increasing volumes, and the reward structure centers on reduced fees and SC upgrades. The problem is that you're paying fees even at the top VIP tier. Reducing a 3% fee to 2% is better, but the baseline of charging fees at all is below category standard.
The progressive daily login bonus resets weekly with milestone bonuses on days 8, 15, 22, and 30. These bonuses are GC only, not SC.
Banking & Redemptions
The published minimum redemption is 50 SC. Redemption fees apply at all VIP levels: 3% at entry tier, 2% at higher tiers.
Community reports, documented on Trustpilot as of February 2026, describe payout delays of weeks to months. This is the most significant operational red flag in our assessment. The published payout time estimate is Reported delays of weeks to months, and the community data suggests the actual experience frequently deviates from that.
First-time redemption friction point: the fee structure means you receive less than the SC face value on every cashout. A 50 SC redemption at 3% fee nets you $48.50. At Pulsz or WOW Vegas, 50 SC nets you $50 with no fee.
No AMOE (Alternative Method of Entry) is documented for CoinsBucks despite this being a standard legal requirement under US sweepstakes law. Platforms like Chumba, Golden Hearts, and Fortune Coins all publish mail-in AMOE procedures.
Customer Support
No support details are confirmed in the research brief. Given the Trustpilot complaint patterns referencing delayed payouts and customer service issues, we cannot rate support positively without verified positive interactions from our community.
Trust & Legitimacy
CoinsBucks Gaming Ltd. is the operator. The corporate registration jurisdiction is not disclosed on the platform. No verifiable registration location is available. This is a transparency gap that established operators like KHK Games (Philadelphia), Sunflower Limited, and NiyaSG LLC (Delaware) don't have.
Trustpilot rating: poor, with common complaints centering on delayed or denied redemptions. No BBB listing. No Reddit community presence as of February 2026.
The missing AMOE is a legal compliance concern under US sweepstakes law. We flagged this early. Platforms operating under US sweepstakes law are required to provide a free method of entry. The absence of a documented AMOE procedure is not a minor oversight.
State Availability
No prohibited states are listed in the research brief. The platform operates in the US sweepstakes format. Age requirement is 18+.
Responsible Gambling
No specific responsible gambling tools are documented in the research brief for CoinsBucks. Standard tools (self-exclusion, purchase limits) should be available but were not verifiable for this review.

Is CoinsBucks Worth It?
Our community consensus on CoinsBucks is clear: the combination of documented payout delays, redemption fees across all VIP tiers, missing AMOE compliance, and undisclosed operator identity creates a risk profile that puts it below our recommendation threshold.
For players considering the 600-game library or the Pragmatic Play titles: WOW Vegas offers Pragmatic Play games with no redemption fees and a documented payout track record. Funrize and Chanced both offer similar game counts without the payout delay complaints.
For players specifically wanting originals like Mines and Plinko: Stake US and McLuck offer crash-adjacent and original game formats with substantially better trust records and zero redemption fees.
The 9-tier VIP program structure is interesting, but a VIP program that charges fees at every tier is not player-friendly. We'll update this review if payout delay complaints resolve and the AMOE issue is addressed.
SWEEPSTAKES REMINDER: Gold Coins have no cash value. Sweeps Coins can be redeemed for prizes when earned through gameplay or free entry. No purchase is necessary to win.
