These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of this website, a free informational resource covering legal gambling in Louisiana. By using the site, you accept these terms in full. If you do not agree with any part of them, please stop using the site.
The short version
This site is an information resource only, not a gambling operator. You must be 21 or older to use it. We publish guides about Louisiana sports betting, retail casinos in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport, Bossier City and Lake Charles, plus social and sweepstakes formats. We earn affiliate commissions on some links, we make no warranties, and we are not liable for decisions you make based on our content.
1. Acceptance of these terms
Your use of this website is conditioned on your acceptance of these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy. These terms apply to every visitor, reader, and user. We may reference additional guidelines or policies on specific pages, and those are incorporated here by reference.
If you use the site on behalf of an organization, you confirm you have authority to bind that organization to these terms.
2. Eligibility and the 21+ requirement
You must be at least 21 years old to use this site or to act on any information it contains. Louisiana sets the minimum gambling age at 21 across retail casinos, racinos, and licensed online sports betting. The Louisiana Gaming Control Board (LGCB) and the Louisiana State Police Gaming Enforcement Division enforce this standard.
By using the site, you represent that you are 21 or older and that gambling is lawful in your location. Do not use this site if you are under 21.
Gamble responsibly
If gambling stops being fun, help is free and confidential. Call the Louisiana helpline at 1-877-770-STOP (1-877-770-7867) or the national line at 1-800-GAMBLER. Louisiana offers a self-exclusion program with a five-year minimum term, enrolled in person. You can also reach the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) and the Louisiana Association on Compulsive Gambling. See our Louisiana responsible gambling resources.
3. Informational purpose only; no warranty
This site provides general information and opinion about gambling law and gambling products in Louisiana. It is not legal advice, financial advice, or a substitute for the official sources. Always confirm current law with the LGCB, the Louisiana State Police Gaming Enforcement Division, and the legislature at legis.la.gov before acting.
Gambling law changes quickly. Real-money online casinos are not legal in Louisiana, and SB 885 stalled in committee in 2026. On July 2, 2025, the Louisiana Attorney General issued an opinion deeming dual-currency sweepstakes casinos illegal gambling under La. R.S. 14:90, and the LGCB sent more than 40 cease-and-desist letters that June.
We work to keep our legality guides accurate, but we provide all content "as is" and "as available." We make no warranties, express or implied, about accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or fitness for a particular purpose. You rely on the information at your own risk.
We do not operate any gambling product
This is an editorial site. We do not accept wagers, hold funds, or run any casino, sportsbook, or sweepstakes platform. Sweepstakes casinos let users redeem eligible Sweeps Coins for cash prizes only where permitted, which is different from licensed real-money gambling. In Louisiana, the AG has deemed the dual-currency model illegal, and major brands have exited the state. Pure social casinos that offer Gold Coins only, with no cash or prize redemption, appear to be permitted under La. R.S. 14:90, but no explicit state ruling confirms this. We never present offshore or unregulated casinos as legal or safe.
4. Affiliate disclosure
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click certain links to sweepstakes or social casino brands and sign up, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This helps fund our research and keeps the site free.
Affiliate relationships never change our legal facts or our ratings. We do not promote products that are unavailable to Louisiana players as if you can use them here, and we flag availability clearly across our online casinos in Louisiana coverage.
5. Intellectual property
The content on this site, including text, graphics, logos, page layouts, and original guides, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by United States copyright and trademark law. You may view and share links to our pages for personal, non-commercial use.
You may not copy, republish, scrape, or redistribute substantial portions of the site without our written permission. Brand names, casino logos, and trademarks shown here belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and editorial purposes only.
6. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of this site or your reliance on its content. This includes any gambling losses, missed promotions, or decisions made based on our guides, comparisons, or bonus information.
You are solely responsible for verifying current law and operator availability before you gamble, and for gambling within your means. If you choose to play, do so only with licensed, legal options and only if you are 21 or older.
7. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms of Use at any time to reflect changes in our practices, the law, or our content. We will revise the "last updated" date when we do. Continued use of the site after changes take effect means you accept the revised terms.

Editorial note: This page is reviewed for accuracy, legal clarity, bonus transparency, and responsible gambling information. Louisiana gambling laws and operator availability can change, so all legal and promotional details should be verified before publication.
