Sweepstakes casinos in Louisiana

Louisiana is one of the hardest states for sweepstakes casinos: 34 of the 37 we review exclude it, leaving 3, 41st of 50 for choice (tied with 7 other states).

Are sweepstakes casinos legal in Louisiana?

Louisiana bans online sweepstakes casinos. HB 883, enacted in 2026 as Act 182, makes any online dual-currency game that simulates gambling a form of gambling by computer.

The act also covers platform providers and payment processors, which the attorney general can send cease-and-desist notices.

Before the act, the Louisiana Gaming Control Board had already sent more than 40 cease-and-desist letters to offshore wagering platforms and online sweepstakes operators in its 2024 to 2025 fiscal year.

3 of the casinos we review still list Louisiana as accepted in their own terms. Their terms can lag behind the law, so check with the casino before you sign up.
