With all these states cracking down on sweepstakes casinos, I know a lot of us folks in California got cut off. I’m trying to figure out what to use next. CardCrush and Clash5 seem to have poor RTP in my experience so far. Im well over 1,500 in deposits on CardCrush and managed 1 redemption for a few hundread bucks. Im not saying they are rigged just that the return to player is not as strong so im looking for alternatives. I really dont want to mess with crypto if I dont have to. Thanks for any opinions!
Maaaan my experience on Cardcrush has been the same. Although they did give me 370 MC free (Im guessing after I lost a lot with no redemption).. But yeah I also think they are running the lowest rtp settings on their slots. Why? Bc they have no competition lol!
I know you said no crypto but thats really your best option in CA and most of the slots are running at the max rtp settings. I always use Hacksaw as a baseline comparative bc its displayed in the game settings so you can compare for yourself.
If you need an easy guide on crypto, this is prob my most complete guide. Theres a video there too if you prefer visuals. Also feel free to DM me if you run into any issues; always happy to help! Guide can be found here: How to Play Pragmatic Slots in the US After the Sweeps Ban

Cardcrush absolutely has dirt low rtp slots. You can find it in many of the slots that show the RTP like booming slots for instance which proves it. I only buy in when they have those 50% off or greater deals essentially as that is literally the only time it is remotely worth it. I have redeemed plenty and I have even won the nearly 600 SC community major randomly spinning a few weeks ago and it was immediately withdrawable so thats about the only good news. Ryan is definitely correct its the lack of competition lol. Oh and I too hate dealing with crypto and only do so if absolutely pressing, so thats mostly the .com side of myprize for me with a VPN.

Thanks guys for the responses. @bigjackpots, ill check out the guide you posted. It seems like im going to have to start learning crypto eventually. @backinthejox, I’ll try MyPrize once I understand the crypto part because im pretty sure my old account was verified there. Thanks for the help!
I’m in Georgia not California but I’ve used MyPrize.com with a VPN on Norway and my .us verification carried right over so no extra verification. The game selection is worth it to have Pragmatic. Latley prag games have been all i’ve been winning on.
Word of caution tho @oldmanmatt, if you were not verified on .us prior to the ban in CA, I dont think this will work for you. Only if you were already fully verified. Otherwise, your best bet is a vpn friendly casino that doesnt kyc.

Man I feel you on Card Crush. The free MC offers are nice but I swear I burn through them faster than any other site I used before the ban. I’ve had maybe one decent win and that was on some random playson slot.
