A few well-known sweepstakes casinos are all departing Tennessee in around the same amount of time, which may indicate the existence of unreported cease-and-desist orders.
Sweepsy has learnt through a variety of channels and sources that High 5 Casino, Stake.us, RealPrize, and LoneStar Casino will be leaving Tennessee in November and December. Additionally, Lucky Bits Vegas is shutting down its business in the state.
Could there be a similarly timed departure from some of the more well-known sweepstakes casinos? Yes. Is that possible? No.
It’s more likely that these five operators are reacting in accordance with a wave of cease-and-desists issued behind closed doors by Tennessee Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti or the Tennessee Sports Wagering Council.
“Because of modifications to the regulatory environment”
Sweepsy was informed by a Stake.us customer service agent that Tennessee would be added to the website’s list of banned states on December 19. For a complete platform outage, both Gold Coin and Sweeps Coin gaming would be affected.
Meanwhile, participants in Tennessee received an email from RealPrize and LoneStar, both owned by RealPlay Tech Inc., informing them of the impending change.

The email said, in part:
Due to changes in the regulatory environment, we are writing to notify you of a significant alteration to our Terms and Conditions that will impact Tennessee users, including new and current accounts.
In Tennessee, RealPrize is discontinuing Promotional Play (Sweeps Coins) as of November 24, 2025. Beginning on November 24, 2025, customers in the state of Tennessee will not be able to take part in Promotional Play (Sweeps Coins) in any manner.
We promise you that this choice was not made lightly and was reached after taking into account a number of business issues, even though this news may be disappointing.
