Our take on Gains

Venmo is one of four ways Gains pays prizes, alongside debit card, ACH and crypto. Most requests are approved automatically within seconds, and debit card and Venmo payouts are stated at about 30 minutes, with ACH at 3 to 5 business days. The rules still allow up to 30 days. Fees run 2.5% on debit card, 2% on crypto and 1% on ACH. You can redeem 100 to 5,000 Sweeps Coins once a day, and SC from daily claim bonuses can only ever add up to $100 in prizes. GamerGains Labs, Inc. of Miami runs it for players 18+ (19 in Alabama and Nebraska).

Pros

Four payout options, Venmo included
Debit card and Venmo payouts stated at about 30 minutes

3 SC per mail-in postcard
Live chat with a human handoff, plus email

Cons

Fees of 1% to 2.5% depending on payout method
Rules allow up to 30 days to process
Daily-claim SC capped at $100 in lifetime prizes
One redemption a day, 100 SC minimum
Delaware, Idaho and Utah missing from its own excluded list despite bans

■ Available■ Gold Coins only■ Not available

In California and New York, sweepstakes at Gains award merchandise prizes only, with no cash or gift card redemptions, so we count them as unavailable for prize play.

Gains's own list still shows Delaware, Idaho, Utah as open, but these states restrict sweepstakes casinos by law or regulator action, so we treat them as unavailable.
