Is Lucky Hands legal?
Lucky Hands is a sweepstakes casino. It operates under US promotional sweepstakes law: you never have to buy anything to play, and the Sweeps Coins you can redeem for prizes are always given away free. That is why it can operate legally in most states without a gambling licence.
What matters is where you are physically located, not where you live. Lucky Hands checks your location when you sign up and when you play with Sweeps Coins. If you travel to a restricted state you can usually still log in, but Sweeps Coin play and redemptions are blocked until you leave.
Lucky Hands age requirement
You must be 18 to play at Lucky Hands, or the age of majority where you live if that is higher. You will need to prove your age with ID before your first redemption.
