Once you have mastered collecting your free daily Sweeps Coins (SC) each day and cashing out your SC for dollars, you may be interested in a more lucrative and advanced strategy. The method is called many things such as “farming”, ”washing” or “churning”. Whatever it’s called, the method/strategy is essentially taking advantage of each Sweep Casino’s bread & butter - Coin Purchases.
Very important to know! You may have noticed when you collect the daily reward, you are also given gold coins. Gold coins are basically worthless, however they are essential for Sweeps Casinos because the gold coins are what are being purchased when people want to play the games just for fun without collecting the free daily reward. When you click on ‘purchase’ or ‘buy coins’ on any of the sites you will notice one similar pattern, the Sweeps Coins are FREE! This is how the Sweep Casinos stay legal and compliant to federal and state laws. You are not playing with dollars, you are playing with SC that were given to you for free. When you cash out, the casinos are exchanging the SC for dollars in good faith. Their good reputation is essential for this exchange to happen which is why you never hear about people not getting their due reward.
Washing/churning is fairly simple. The first thing you need to know is that the RPT (Return to Player) on the slot games, Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat, and other games are all essentially close to 95%. RTP is the theoretical return to the player based on the mathematics of the game. That means, just like any land based casino in Vegas or elsewhere, the casino has a mathematical edge. In Vegas, the average RTP is between 80 and 90%. However, the Sweeps Casino’s RTP is close to 95%! That means for every $100 of SC you play, you can expect to win $95. How is this important? The coin packages and welcome bonuses are often heavily discounted. For example you will often see coin packages for $15 that will gift you 20 SC for free. If you played that 20 SC through once, based on the RTP above, you can expect to lose less than a dollar. BUT!! You only paid $15…so your theoretical profit is around $4.
Sweep Casino’s Coin Packages are player favored. Most people using the advanced churning strategy will buy coin packages that are discounted 20% or more. Meaning for 20 free SC, you shouldn’t pay more than $16. You will see these discounts and promotions often from each of the casinos. This discount heavily favors a profitable strategy as long as you cash out your SC winnings before you lose more than you paid. This is where discipline and some luck comes in. You can often buy packages knowing the RTP is 95% but you will still lose your SC, or the total after playing though it once, is less than what you paid. This happens often but a true churner knows that over time it is to the player’s advantage to purchase these discounted packages.
Topping up. An additional reason to make purchases is when your SC balance is close to the minimum redemption limit but not quite there. Instead of attempting to gamble more to reach that threshold, many people will deposit a small amount to exceed that limit then make the redemption after playing through that free SC. This eliminates the risk if losing all the SC you collected and were fortunate enough to win.
Takeaways:
1) It is mathematically to your advantage to purchase coin packages that are discounted by 20% or more.
2) Cycle through the free SC only once and do not play it more. If you lose more than expected, keep collecting the daily free SC reward to bring you back to profitability.
3) Cash out immediately to remain disciplined and secure your profit. Repeat as much as you like knowing YOU have an advantage. Keep in mind that losses are not entirely preventable.
4) Combine purchases with daily rewards to increase your chances of meeting the minimum withdrawal amounts. Don’t be afraid of cashing out for Gift Cards for useful things like groceries or airlines.
5) Making purchases to top your SC balance above the minimum redemption limit may make sense.
