Sweepstakes casinos in Louisiana (2026)
Act 182 — Louisiana House Bill 883 — was signed and took effect August 1, 2026. It amends R.S. 14:90.3 so an internet game, contest, or promotion using a dual-currency system of payment, allowing exchange for a prize, cash, or cash equivalents (or a chance to win one), and simulating gambling constitutes "gambling by computer". Separately, Louisiana appears on many operators' restriction lists; those terms are a different fact from the statute. The table below is limited to sites whose published terms still accept Louisiana players. A terms listing is not a finding that the product falls outside the statute.
