Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to You
At Max Steiner for Congress, we believe that sweepstakes gaming should be entertaining, exciting, and fun—never a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Responsible gaming is at the heart of everything we do. We're committed to providing a safe environment and supporting players in making informed choices.
Age Verification & Legal Requirements
Sweepstakes gaming is only for players who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age of majority in your state). We require verification of your age before you can participate. If you are under the legal age limit in your jurisdiction, please do not use our platform.

If you recognize any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:
- Spending more time or money on gaming than intended
- Chasing losses (trying to win back money you've lost)
- Hiding your gaming activity from friends or family
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or negative emotions
- Borrowing money to fund gaming
- Neglecting work, school, or personal relationships because of gaming
- Feeling irritable or anxious when trying to reduce gaming
- Lying about how much time or money you spend gaming
- Using gaming as a way to solve financial problems
- Increasing the amount you gamble to achieve the same excitement
