Are sweepstakes casinos legal in Arkansas?
Arkansas has no law aimed specifically at online sweepstakes casinos, but on November 4, 2026 its Attorney General sued VGW, the operator of Chumba Casino, LuckyLand and Global Poker, alleging its sweepstakes model is illegal gambling.
The suit is brought under the Arkansas Deceptive Trade Practices Act and seeks restitution, penalties, taxes and an injunction.
The case is a lawsuit, not a ruling: the allegations are the state's, and the court has not decided them.
