Sweepstakes Rules

Lucky Buddha Casino is a sweepstakes social casino operated by Windstorm Tech LLC in Montgomery, Alabama, and launched in February 2026. It is not a real-money gambling site. Instead, it runs promotional sweepstakes that let you play with two types of virtual currency: Gold Coins for entertainment and Sweepstakes Coins that can be redeemed for real prizes once you meet the requirements below.

These rules are meant to keep play fair, protect players, and make redemption smooth. Sweepstakes promotions are void where prohibited by law, and no purchase is necessary to enter or participate.

Who Can Play: Eligibility, Age, and Location Rules

To participate in any sweepstakes promotion at Lucky Buddha Casino, you must meet all eligibility requirements.

You are eligible if you:

• Are at least 18 years old
• Are physically located in an eligible jurisdiction within the United States when you play
• Can complete identity and age verification when requested
• Register only one account, in your own name, with accurate information

You are not eligible if you are located in any restricted state. Lucky Buddha Casino currently does not offer sweepstakes play to players located in California, Connecticut, Idaho, Louisiana, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Tennessee, or Washington.

Because eligibility can change based on laws and compliance requirements, it is your responsibility to confirm you are in an eligible location each time you log in and play.

The Two-Currency System: Gold Coins Versus Sweepstakes Coins

Lucky Buddha Casino uses a dual-currency model designed to separate entertainment play from sweepstakes participation.

Gold Coins:

• Are used for social, entertainment gameplay only
• Have no cash value
• Are not redeemable and cannot be converted into money or prizes
• Are non-refundable once used in gameplay

Sweepstakes Coins:

• Are promotional sweepstakes currency
• Can be used to play eligible games on the platform
• May be redeemed for prizes after meeting redemption requirements and verification

Account Registration Rules (And What You Must Keep Accurate)

To register, you must provide truthful, current information, including details needed for identity verification. You are responsible for keeping your contact information up to date, especially your email and mailing address.

Key registration rules:

• One account per person, per household, and per device environment may be enforced to prevent abuse
• You cannot create accounts on behalf of anyone else
• You cannot transfer, sell, gift, or “share” Gold Coins or Sweepstakes Coins
• If your account information cannot be verified, your redemption request may be delayed, declined, or canceled

How to Get Sweepstakes Coins (Including Free Methods of Entry)

Lucky Buddha Casino offers multiple ways to obtain Sweepstakes Coins, and no purchase is necessary to participate. Purchases, when available, are for Gold Coin packages, and any Sweepstakes Coins included are promotional bonus add-ons.

Common ways to obtain Sweepstakes Coins include:

Zen Registration Bonus (sign-up) When you create a new account, you can receive a registration bonus that includes 100,000 Gold Coins plus 2 Sweepstakes Coins. The Sweepstakes Coins from this offer must be played through one time before they are eligible for redemption.

Promotions, giveaways, and periodic offers From time to time, the casino may award free Sweepstakes Coins through promotional events. These offers can have specific limits, expiration windows, and playthrough rules.

Referral bonus If you refer a friend and they sign up using your link and complete a qualifying first purchase, you may receive 25,000 Gold Coins and 5 Sweepstakes Coins per qualifying referral. Referral activity is monitored for abuse, and suspicious patterns can result in the bonus being withheld or accounts being reviewed.

Gold Coin bundle purchases (optional) Gold Coin bundles may include bonus Sweepstakes Coins as a promotional perk. Purchasing does not increase your odds of winning any sweepstakes promotion, and you can still participate using free entry methods.

Mail-In Free Entry: The Alternate Method of Entry Rules (AMOE)

Lucky Buddha Casino provides an Alternate Method of Entry that lets eligible players request free Sweepstakes Coins by postal mail. This is a key part of the sweepstakes model, and it exists so that players can participate without making a purchase.

Mail-in rules you should know:

• You must follow the exact instructions published in the sweepstakes rules, including required handwritten details
• Requests that are incomplete, copied, mass-produced, or otherwise not compliant may be rejected
• The current limit is 3 Sweepstakes Coins per valid request, up to 5 requests per month (up to 15 Sweepstakes Coins monthly)
• Credits are processed manually, so timing can vary

Because AMOE requests are validated carefully for fairness and fraud prevention, “close enough” submissions can be denied. If you plan to use AMOE, slow down, write clearly, and follow the instructions precisely.

How Sweepstakes Promotions Work While You Play

Sweepstakes promotions at Lucky Buddha Casino are tied to gameplay using Sweepstakes Coins on eligible games, which may include slots, table games, live dealer titles, and crash-style games.

Important participation rules:

• Sweepstakes Coins must be used in-game to generate outcomes and potential prize value
• All bonus Sweepstakes Coins are subject to a one-time playthrough requirement (1x) before redemption eligibility
• Gameplay must be personal and legitimate - using tools or tactics that distort normal play may lead to disqualification

Promotions can also include limits, such as maximum awards per player, expiration dates, or eligibility filters based on location. If any promotion has special terms, those terms control.

Prize Redemption: Requirements, Minimums, and What to Expect

Sweepstakes Coins can be redeemed for prizes only after meeting all redemption conditions. Redemption is not instant, and it is not available until your account is verified.

Key redemption requirements:

• Minimum redemption amount: 100 Sweepstakes Coins
• Playthrough: Bonus Sweepstakes Coins must be played through one time (1x) before they become eligible for redemption
• Verification: You must complete identity checks before your first redemption, and you may be re-verified later for security

Redemption methods may include bank account transfers and supported payment rails such as Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Venmo, bank transfer, and Real Time Payments. Processing times can vary by method, commonly ranging from 24 to 48 hours after approval, and a redemption fee may apply (typically $1.25 to $3.96 per transaction).

If you are located in Florida, additional limits may apply, including a statewide cap of $5,000 per day in sweepstakes winnings.

Identity Verification: Why It Happens and What You May Need

Verification is part of keeping the site secure and compliant. Lucky Buddha Casino may require verification:

• Before your first redemption
• When your account details change
• When risk systems detect unusual activity
• When required to confirm eligibility, age, or location

Information you may be asked to provide can include a government-issued identification document, proof of address, and confirmation that your payment and account details belong to you. If documents are unclear, expired, or do not match your profile, verification can take longer or be declined.

Prohibited Activities That Can Get You Disqualified

Lucky Buddha Casino is built around clarity and fairness. Certain behaviors can result in lost bonuses, canceled redemptions, account suspension, or permanent closure.

Prohibited activities include:

• Creating multiple accounts or using someone else’s identity
• Collusion, chip-dumping, or coordinated play meant to manipulate outcomes
• Using bots, scripts, automation tools, or unauthorized third-party software
• Exploiting bugs, glitches, or system errors (including “bonus abuse” patterns)
• Submitting falsified AMOE requests or mass-mailing requests that violate the rules
• Abusing promotions through repeat sign-ups, device spoofing, location masking, or similar tactics
• Any activity that suggests money laundering, fraud, or chargeback abuse

If prohibited activity is suspected, the casino may pause withdrawals, request additional verification, reverse promotional credits, or close accounts to protect the integrity of the sweepstakes.

Fraud Prevention Measures and Account Security Checks

To keep gameplay balanced and protect legitimate players, Lucky Buddha Casino uses common anti-fraud controls such as:

• Device, identity, and location checks
• Age and identity verification workflows
• Monitoring for unusual betting, login, and redemption patterns
• Review of referral activity for suspicious relationships or repeated behaviors
• AMOE validation processes to confirm compliance

These safeguards can feel strict, but they’re designed to keep the platform trustworthy, prevent manipulation, and help legitimate redemptions move faster once your account is confirmed.

When Accounts Can Be Suspended, Limited, or Closed

Your account may be restricted, suspended, or closed if:

• You are underage or in a restricted location
• You provide inaccurate registration information
• You fail verification checks or refuse requested documentation
• Your activity triggers fraud or compliance reviews
• You violate promotion terms or sweepstakes rules
• You attempt to redeem prizes in a way that conflicts with the rules

If an error credits your account incorrectly (for example, an unintended bonus or a system malfunction), Lucky Buddha Casino may correct the balance and adjust entries or winnings linked to the error.

Support, Questions, and Getting Help Fast

If you’re unsure about eligibility, AMOE formatting, playthrough status, or redemption steps, the fastest path is usually support chat. You can also use the site’s frequently asked questions, or email support at “support@luckybuddhascasino.com”.

Keeping your account accurate, playing from an eligible location, and following the one-account rule goes a long way toward smooth redemptions and fewer delays.

Responsible Play: Keep It Fun and In Balance

Even in a sweepstakes model, gameplay can get intense. Set a budget, take breaks, and use limits or time-outs if you notice you’re chasing losses or playing past your comfort zone.

The goal is steady momentum, not pressure. When you stick to the rules and play within your means, you give yourself the best shot at a fun, fair experience from sign-up to redemption.
