RealPrize vs Splash Coins

The short version

On our Editor Rating they sit close together: 4.3 for Splash Coins, 4.1 for RealPrize. RealPrize is the better fit for wider coverage (36 jurisdictions to Splash Coins’ 33). For mail-in players, at 2 SC per request against 1 and live chat support, Splash Coins makes more sense.

State availability

Prize play is open in 36 jurisdictions at RealPrize and 33 at Splash Coins, out of 51 (the states plus DC).

Only RealPrize is open in Arizona, Kentucky and Maryland.

RealPrize and Splash Coins both still list Delaware and Utah as open, and RealPrize’s also shows California, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, New Jersey and Tennessee, but those states restrict sweepstakes casinos, and we go by the law.

Turning SC into prizes

RealPrize’s options are cash and gift cards. Splash Coins’ options are Skrill, ACH bank transfer and debit card.

RealPrize doesn’t state a processing time in what we’ve verified. For Splash Coins, the stated timing is: approval up to 3 business days; then Skrill usually immediate, debit card within 30 minutes, Pay By Bank 2–3 business days.
