Stake Gold Coins (What Are Gold Coins on Stake?)

Understanding the currency system is step one. Let me break it down plain and simple.

Stake Gold Coins: Gold Coins vs Stake Cash

Stake.us uses two currencies. Gold Coins (GC) are the free play currency with no monetary value. Stake Cash (SC) is the sweepstakes currency that can be redeemed for real prizes.

Key distinction: Gold Coins cannot be converted into Stake Cash. They are entirely separate currencies with different purposes. GC is for entertainment play. SC is earned through free promotions, daily login bonuses, social media giveaways, postcard requests, and bonus codes like MAXBET.

New accounts with code MAXBET receive 250,000 GC + 25 Free SC at registration, plus 10,000 GC + 1 SC daily for 31 consecutive login days.

How SC Redemption Works

Redeemable Stake Cash is accessed through Wallet → Redeem once the minimum threshold of $50 SC and the applicable rollover have been met.

• Promotional SC linked to a purchase requires 3x playthrough before redemption.
• If GC were purchased with fiat, redemption follows fiat. If purchased with crypto, redemption follows crypto until the SC balance returns to zero.
• Account verification (KYC) must be complete before processing any redemption.

Troubleshooting

• Account verification delays: Allow 24–72 hours for KYC processing. Ensure documents are clear and match your registration details.
• Missing welcome bonus: Verify that code MAXBET was applied during registration and that you completed verification within 48 hours.
• GC vs SC confusion: Gold Coins have no monetary value and cannot be converted to SC. They are separate currencies.
• Restricted state: If you are in AZ or another restricted state, you cannot create an account.
