Scarlet Sands Overview
Scarlet Sands is a sweepstakes social casino operated by UTech Solutions LLC, launched in 2025 at scarletsands.com. The dual-currency system uses Gold Coins (play money) and Sweeps Coins redeemable for cash prizes at 1 SC = $1. As of February 2026, the library lists 1,000+ slots from 6 providers, with no prohibited US states.
We tested the platform in February 2026. The 1x SC playthrough requirement is the standout metric, most sweepstakes competitors run 3x or higher. Combined with 6-8 hour typical payouts and five fiat payment methods (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, PayPal, Cash App, and Bank Transfer), Scarlet Sands earns its position as our top-ranked platform for payout speed and playthrough transparency in the 2025 sweepstakes class.
Scarlet Sands Bonuses & Promotions
The welcome bonus is 350K GC + 1 SC: 350,000 Gold Coins plus 1 Sweeps Coin with no purchase required. The 1 SC free is standard for the category, matching Rich Sweeps and Runewager. The welcome is functional, not exceptional.
The first purchase bonus is 900K GC + 60 SC for $29.99: 900,000 GC plus 60 SC for $29.99. Cost-per-SC math: $29.99 ÷ 60 SC = $0.50 per SC. That's above the $0.33/SC rate at Rich Sweeps and Rolla but the higher absolute SC count (60 SC vs. 30 SC) gives players more SC volume from a single purchase. At the same $29.99 spend, Scoop delivers 60 SC at the same $0.50/SC rate, these two platforms are cost-equivalent at this tier.
The 1x playthrough requirement on bonus SC is the most significant bonus-structure differentiator. Most sweepstakes competitors sit at 3x or higher. At 1x, every SC won from bonus play converts directly to redeemable value after one complete cycle, meaning the effective house edge on bonus SC is close to the game's published RTP. Rolling Riches doesn't publish its multiplier; Runewager applies requirements but doesn't specify the multiple. Scarlet Sands and Rich Sweeps (also 1x) are the most transparent platforms in this regard.
Three daily bonus mechanics create the highest engagement frequency in our current review cycle:
- Daily Blaze: progressive login bonus rewarding consecutive days
- Scarlet Wheel: 12-hour cycle, two spins per day
- Desert Dice: 3-hour cycle, up to eight claims per day
The daily bonus total from all three is 2.5K GC + 0.2 SC: 2,500 GC plus 0.2 SC per claim. The 0.2 SC per Desert Dice claim at 8x/day gives a theoretical daily maximum of 1.6 SC from Desert Dice alone, plus additional SC from the Scarlet Wheel. Total daily SC accumulation from all three mechanics combined exceeds most single-bonus competitors.
Free path to minimum: at realistic average daily SC from all three mechanics (0.5-1 SC/day combined), reaching the 100 SC minimum takes 100-200 days. The Daily Blaze streak bonus accelerates this for committed players.

Scarlet Sands Games & Providers
1,000+ slots from 6 providers as of February 2026. Provider list: BGaming, Betsoft, Booming Games, Evoplay, Kalamba, Slotopia.
Slots only, no table games, no live dealer, no sports betting. Scarlet Sands is a slots-first platform. Players who need table games should look at Rolling Riches (blackjack, roulette, poker) or Stake US. Players who need live dealer should look at Rich Sweeps (126 Evolution titles).
BGaming and Evoplay contribute strong RTP-published titles. Betsoft's 3D visual style performs well on mobile browsers. Kalamba and Slotopia fill mid-volatility ranges with mobile-optimized content. Booming Games brings a catalog recognized by players familiar with European real-money platforms.
The 1,000+ count places Scarlet Sands in the mid-upper tier by catalog size: below Rich Sweeps (4,232) and Rolla (1,500), above Runewager (1,300+ is close), above Rolling Riches (500), and well above the 36-game catalog at Roxy Moxy.
No average RTP figure is published across the library. No jackpot count is disclosed.
Scarlet Sands Platform Features
No mobile app. Browser-based across desktop and mobile. The three-mechanic daily bonus system (Daily Blaze, Scarlet Wheel, Desert Dice) is the primary engagement differentiator. No other platform in our current review cycle uses a three-tier daily claim structure.
The Royal Club VIP program runs 8 tiers deep. VIP tier details (multipliers, tier thresholds, benefits) are rolling out in phases as of February 2026, full publication is pending. An 8-tier structure suggests a more differentiated loyalty program than the 4-6 tier systems at most competitors, though the unpublished details are a transparency gap.
Payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, Discover, PayPal, Cash App, and Bank Transfer. That covers 6 fiat channels, broader than Rich Sweeps (debit card only) and Rolla (unspecified fiat). No crypto purchase option.
Scarlet Sands Banking & Redemptions
Redemption timeline: 24-72 hours (often 6-8 hours): 24-72 hours, with many requests clearing in 6-8 hours. Minimum redemption: 100 SC ($100). Playthrough requirement: 1x on Sweeps Coins.
The 6-8 hour typical window is the fastest fiat redemption documented in our current review cycle. Rich Sweeps (24-48h for crypto) is faster in the crypto category. For players who want fiat payouts without crypto setup, Scarlet Sands is the fastest available option we track.
The 1x playthrough means bonus SC clears in a single session of normal play. Compared to Rolling Riches (unpublished multiplier), Rolla (unspecified), and most sweepstakes platforms that don't publish this number at all, Scarlet Sands's published 1x is a material transparency advantage.
First-time redemption adds KYC verification. Government-issued ID and proof of address standard across all sweepstakes platforms. KYC adds 1-3 business days to first-time processing.
Scarlet Sands Customer Support
Specific support channels are not fully detailed in available data. Given the UTech Solutions LLC operator and five-method payment infrastructure, standard sweepstakes support (email and likely live chat) is assumed, check scarletsands.com for current contact options.
Scarlet Sands Trust & Legitimacy
Corporate entity: UTech Solutions LLC. Registration jurisdiction not disclosed in available research. Launched 2025. No BBB profile or Trustpilot score is available in current data.

Is Scarlet Sands Worth It?
For SC buyers who want the fastest fiat payouts: 6-8 hours typical processing at 1x playthrough makes Scarlet Sands the top-ranked platform in our current review cycle for players who want speed without needing crypto. Rich Sweeps is faster for crypto users (24-48h), but Scarlet Sands is the fastest fiat option we document.
For players who want maximum purchase value: 60 SC for $29.99 at $0.50/SC is above the $0.33/SC rate at Rich Sweeps and Rolla. If cost-per-SC at the $9.99 tier matters to you, Rolla and Rich Sweeps are better values on the first purchase.
For players who want daily bonus variety: three daily mechanics (12-hour wheel + 3-hour dice + progressive daily blaze) give active players more daily claim opportunities than any other platform in our current review cycle.
For players who need table games or live dealer: Scarlet Sands is slots-only. Rolling Riches (table games + BeterLive) and Rich Sweeps (126 Evolution live dealer titles) are better choices.
