Sweepstakes.io: CrownCoins and Pulsz Casino top 13M US visits in 2026 YTD

CrownCoins and Pulsz Casino generated more than 13 million combined US web visits in 2026 year-to-date, exceeding the combined traffic of the next 48 operators, according to a new market report from Sweepstakes.io covering activity through 31 August.

The dataset ranks the top 50 US sweepstakes casinos by web traffic so far in 2026, showing a highly concentrated market. CrownCoins led with 7,422,836 visits, followed by Pulsz Casino (5,708,862), LoneStar (3,228,358), McLuck (2,726,702) and Real Prize (1,262,907). The remainder of the top 10 included Jackpota (1,174,264), High 5 Casino (829,604), Funrize (780,944), Hello Millions (778,727) and Mega Bonanza (719,860).

Beyond web traffic, Sweepstakes.io said conversion from web traffic into mobile app downloads varies widely across iOS and Android. The report notes that “legacy platforms like High 5 Casino and Baba Casino show strong mobile conversion with millions of Google Play downloads,” while some traffic leaders rely more heavily on web funnels alongside iOS App Store positioning.

One of the report’s key risk signals is an increase in app cloning and app store squatting. Sweepstakes.io said unofficial developers are targeting high-intent search terms with derivative names and lookalike layouts, potentially diverting players to unverified products.

Travis Beaumont, Analyst at Sweepstakes.io, commented: "The US sweepstakes market has reached a pivotal consolidation phase in 2026. While the top operators continue to scale rapidly, the sheer volume of web traffic entering the sector has created an environment where rogue developers are actively copying visual assets and brand names to capture unassigned search traffic. Players must remain vigilant and verify platform authenticity before providing personal details or purchasing coin packages." Sweepstakes.io said legitimate operators typically include no purchase necessary mechanics, provide alternative method of entry instructions by postal mail, require identity verification before cash prize redemptions, and work with audited iGaming software providers.
