Chumba Casino vs WOW Vegas

Chumba is one of the original sweepstakes casino brands, operated by VGW Holdings and built around a simple, no-frills model. WOW Vegas is a newer, bigger operation with a VIP program and a much larger game library. Here's how they actually compare.

The bottom line

Chumba's pitch is longevity and simplicity: it's one of the longest-running brands in the category, with a straightforward redemption process, but a noticeably smaller game library (around 150 titles) and no VIP program at all. WOW Vegas goes the other direction - a much bigger library (reported anywhere from 1,500 to over 2,000 games depending on the source), live dealer tables, progressive jackpots, and a seven-tier VIP program with perks at higher levels.

If you want a simple, established brand and don't mind a smaller game selection, Chumba's track record counts for something. If variety and ongoing VIP perks matter more to you, WOW Vegas is the deeper experience of the two - though note that Chumba's redemption speed isn't publicly specified, while WOW Vegas reportedly processes gift cards close to instantly.

Details above are drawn from third-party review sites, not hands-on testing, and welcome offers and terms change often - always confirm current bonus details and redemption rules on each site before you sign up.
