VGW, a prominent player in the sweepstakes casino industry, is facing a lawsuit in Kentucky from a group seeking triple damages for losses incurred on its platforms, Chumba and Luckyland. The lawsuit emphasizes a nearly 1:1 ratio between U.S. dollars and Sweeps Coins, suggesting that VGW has replicated the Internet sweepstakes cafe business model. This lawsuit marks the third such legal action within two weeks, following similar suits against DingDingDing in California and Blazesoft in Illinois, all of which highlight the same financial ratio. In its first legislative testimony in the U.S., VGW defended its operations before a Maryland Senate committee, asserting that it is highly regulated and likening its sweepstakes promotions to those of major brands like McDonald's and Microsoft, claiming that players do not pay for a chance to win. Concurrently, Florida lawmakers are considering bills to ban sweepstakes casinos, and discussions are ongoing regarding online casino legislation in Arkansas and a prohibition bill in New York.
