Thrillzz Excluded States: 15 in Terms, 20 in Sweeps Rules

Thrillzz bars 15 states in the Terms of Use its homepage links and 20 in the sweepstakes rules that decide prizes. The five states in the gap are Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut and New Jersey, where a player can buy coins they can never win with.

Both clauses were revised on the same day, July 14, 2026. Its "Play in USA" page then markets to Maine and Indiana, two states every Thrillzz document bars.

Thrillzz is a social sportsbook with a sweepstakes prize layer, a model our guide to how sweepstakes casinos work sets out in full. It is not one of the 33 brands we review, we have not tested it, and nothing here is a score or a recommendation. This is a reading of the operator's own published documents, all fetched on August 18, 2026. Its redemption terms are a separate story: we read those too, and one cash-out per five days with up to 60 to pay is the shape of them.

Which states does Thrillzz exclude?

Two published lists, one 15 states long and one 20, and the shorter one sits in the document the site links from its own footer.

The document linked in the homepage footer, at /terms-of-use/, says you "must not be physically located in any of the following states" when "accessing the Services, including without limitation, purchasing Thrillzz Coins, or attempting to enter a Contest". It names 15.

A second document, at /promotional-terms-of-use/, uses a near-identical sentence with one addition: it covers "attempting to enter a Contest or Sweepstakes". It names 20.

Here are both lists in full, in the operator's own printed order.

• The 15-state list, in the Terms of Use the homepage footer links: Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, New York, Nevada, Ohio, Tennessee, Washington.
• The 20-state list, in the Promotional Terms of Use and every sweepstakes rulebook: the same 15 plus Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut and New Jersey.

Nothing is dropped between the two. The longer list is the shorter one with five states added, so the whole conflict is about what players in those five states are allowed to do.

We pulled the operator's own page index to count how many documents carry a list. Ten do. Nine of them name the same 20 states. One names 15, and it is the one the homepage footer links.

Note the last row in particular. Thrillzz publishes a second document also titled "Terms of Use", mirrored under its /games/ path, and that one names 20. So the 15-state clause is not even this operator's house position on access. It is one page out of ten, and it is the page the footer points at.

Both clauses are written the same way and were revised on the same day. The site's WordPress page records carry a modification timestamp per document, and all ten of the pages carrying a state list show the same one: July 14, 2026. That date is specific to this batch rather than a sitewide touch, so the two lists were not left to drift apart by an edit to one document. Thrillzz's privacy policy, prediction rules, responsible-gaming policy and FAQ each carry earlier dates.

Three of the five states in the gap sit in the banned column on our state-by-state map: New Jersey, Connecticut and California. Arizona and Alabama are restricted rather than banned, and Arizona in particular has no sweepstakes ban but does have a felony promotion-of-gambling statute.

Which document wins if they conflict?

Thrillzz answers that itself, and the answer is circular. The Sweepstakes Official Rules say that "in the event of a direct conflict or inconsistency between these Rules, the Promotional Terms of Use, Promotional Prediction Rules, or Other Government Agreements, the Promotional Terms of Use shall prevail, followed by any Other Governing Agreements, followed by these Rules."

So the "Promotional Terms of Use" controls. The problem is which page that phrase points at. Inside the Sweepstakes Official Rules, all seven hyperlinks labelled "Terms of Use" resolve to /terms-of-use/, the 15-state document, not the separately published /promotional-terms-of-use/ page carrying the 20-state list. The controlling document names one list in its text and another in its links.

The pattern is not unique to Thrillzz: Spree publishes four restricted-state lists that disagree, and McLuck and PlayFame disagree with their own help centres about California. What is unusual is that this conflict sits between two documents with almost the same title.

Why does Thrillzz list Maine and Indiana as available?

Thrillzz's /play-in-usa/ page tells readers "You can find us in any of these 38 states", then lists them. The list actually holds 37 entries, one of which is the District of Columbia.

Six of those named jurisdictions are barred by the Sweepstakes Official Rules: Alabama, Arizona, Connecticut, Indiana, Maine and New Jersey. Two of them, Indiana and Maine, are barred by every Thrillzz document we read, the footer-linked Terms of Use included.

A seventh entry runs the other way, and it is the one we would check first. Oklahoma has banned the model, and no Thrillzz document we read bars Oklahoma at all. The other six at least appear somewhere in the operator's own paperwork; an Oklahoma player is named as welcome by the marketing and given no exclusion clause to fall back on. We found the same gap across the industry when we counted the operators still listing Oklahoma after its ban.

Maine and Indiana are not merely listed. On that page their names are hyperlinks to landing pages built for those states. The Maine page is titled "Social Sportsbook in Maine, USA" and tells readers Thrillzz "delivers a Legal Social Sportsbook experience that Maine players can rely on, whether they are following the action from Old Port in Portland, ME or checking in from Downtown Bangor, ME". The Indiana page says "Indiana users aged 19 or older, who meet eligibility requirements, can enjoy a secure and responsible space focused entirely on free play and social engagement."

Maine's ban is already in force: we covered the law taking effect and, separately, the state regulator's position that it will not help players chase a balance an operator refuses to pay. Indiana banned the model as well. Thrillzz's own rules agree both are off limits. Its marketing pages for both are live, last modified January 13, 2026 for Maine and December 22, 2025 for Indiana.

Pages that name banned states as available are a recurring failure in this market. Pulsz Bingo's help centre does the same thing with five of them: California, Louisiana, Maine, Indiana and New Jersey.

What should you do if Thrillzz bars your state?

In Maine or Indiana, the operator's own contract says you are not eligible, whichever document you read. A state landing page is marketing, not permission, and our guide to whether sweepstakes casinos are legal explains why the rules, not the homepage copy, decide what happens to a balance.

In Oklahoma the paperwork gives you nothing either way. The state has banned the model and Thrillzz's own documents do not list you as excluded, so no clause in them protects a balance if the operator later withdraws from the state. Treat the absence of an exclusion clause as an open question, not a green light.

In Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut or New Jersey, the risk is narrower and more expensive. The footer document does not bar you from registering or buying Thrillzz Coins. Every document governing the sweepstakes side bars you from entering a sweepstakes, the only route to a redeemable prize. Reading only the linked terms would leave you able to spend and unable to win.

One age point worth knowing before you register: Thrillzz sets its floor at "at least 19 years of age or the age of majority in their jurisdiction, whichever is higher", in both Terms of Use and in the sweepstakes rules. Nineteen is an unusual number in this market, where brands' own terms cluster at 18 or 21, so check it against your state rather than assuming the floor you have met elsewhere carries over.

Who runs Thrillzz?

The contract names Thrillzz Inc., at a sponsor address in Franklin, Tennessee, printed in the winners-list clause of the Sweepstakes Official Rules. Tennessee is on both exclusion lists, so the operator bars the state its own sponsor address sits in. That one is not a discrepancy: Tennessee has banned the model, as our Tennessee legality page sets out. It is contested in other operators' paperwork, though, and McLuck's three lists cannot agree on whether Tennessee is blocked. Apple's App Store gives the seller of the "Thrillzz: Social Sportsbook" app as Geckos Games LTD rather than Thrillzz Inc., and shows version 3.31.1 shipped on August 17, 2026. We have not established the relationship between the two names and imply nothing by the difference.

Two limits. We read these documents from outside the United States, so we cannot say what a player inside any of these states is shown at signup; a geo-check could be stricter than the paperwork. And we hold no earlier snapshot, so we cannot say when the lists diverged. How we check operator documents sets out the method; the brands we follow continuously are on our ranked list and new-casino tracker.

Questions readers are asking

What states is Thrillzz not available in? Twenty, on the rules that govern prizes: Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Tennessee and Washington. The Terms of Use linked from the Thrillzz homepage names 15 of those, leaving out Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut and New Jersey.

Is Thrillzz available in Maine? Not according to Thrillzz. Every document we read, including the Terms of Use linked from its homepage, says a user must not be physically located in Maine. A live Thrillzz landing page markets to Maine players anyway.

Which Thrillzz state list should I trust? The longer one. Twenty states appear on nine of the ten documents carrying a list, including every sweepstakes rulebook that governs prize entry. The 15-state version is the outlier and does not mention sweepstakes at all.

Does the shorter list mean I can buy coins in New Jersey? The footer document does not bar a New Jersey purchase; the sweepstakes rules bar New Jersey from entering any sweepstakes. New Jersey has also banned sweepstakes casinos. That clause combination allows buying into a product whose prize mechanism excludes your state.
