What Makes Fortune Wheelz Different From Other Sweepstakes Casinos?

Fortune Wheelz stands out from the competition by its:

• Good First Purchase Bonus: Only $4.99

• Promotions for Existing Players: Tournaments, 2x Wheel Spin

• Lots of Purchase Promos

I awarded Fortune Wheelz an 8.9 for its comparison rating because it has fewer games than other sweepstakes casinos, and players must make a purchase before redemption options become available.

Fortune Wheelz Hands-on Review

Fortune Wheelz offers a good user experience for both desktop and mobile devices. Both sites are easy to navigate and games load in under 10 seconds.

I awarded Fortune Wheelz a 9.2 user experience rating because its website is stylish, I was able to find everything I was looking for in just a few minutes, and games loaded without any issues.

Playing on Desktop

Games load quickly on the Fortune Wheelz site – on average, in under 10 seconds, which is what I’ve found at other sweepstakes casinos.

The website navigation is easy to understand, and I was able to find slot titles and jackpot games very easily. I could also easily see my account information and settings in the main menu.

Since there’s a drop-down box to choose between Fortune Coins play and Gold Coins play, I could easily understand which mode I was playing in.

The only factor I deducted points for in the experience rating was the lack of player safety information (which I’ll cover in greater detail in the sections below).

Playing on Mobile

There is no Fortune Wheelz mobile app, but you can play games on your mobile browser, which replicates the full website accurately.

I found virtually no difference between playing on my phone versus playing on the full website.

Since I could do everything on my phone that I could do on my laptop, including sign up for an account, accept the welcome bonus, purchase Gold Coins, play games, and redeem Winnings, I added a point to my user experience rating.

Is Fortune Wheelz Casino Legit?

Based on my research, Fortune Wheelz is a legit sweepstakes casino.

Owned and operated by A1 Development, Fortune Wheelz Casino is the sister site to Funrize, TaoFortune, NoLimitCoins, and the recently launched FunzCity. All four sites are also sweepstakes casinos.

Fortune Wheelz is available to players who are at least 18 years old in all U.S. states except for Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, and Michigan.

I was able to find the RTPs of most games available at Fortune Wheelz on its iGaming developers’ site, which shows that the results of games are fair.

Fortune Wheelz also scored a 4.4 TrustScore rating on Trustpilot and received 328 reviews at the time of this review’s publication.

Customer Support

When it comes to customer support, Fortune Wheelz offers plenty of ways to contact an agent.

While it doesn’t have a “traditional” FAQ page, its “How It Works” page answers some of the most commonly asked questions.

If you need help, you can contact customer support through the 24/7 chat feature, which is truly the best way to get answers.

Although there are no phone support options, you can also contact customer service by emailing [email protected] or sending a message through Facebook, Instagram, or X (Twitter).

The table below shows how you can get help if you have any questions.

Self-Exclusion & Player Safety

We consider self-exclusion and player safety information a cornerstone of any legit sweepstakes casino platform.

The most common customer safety tools we look for at sweepstakes casinos include:

• Player safety information

• Spending limits

• Timeouts

• Self-exclusion

Sadly, Fortune Wheelz doesn’t offer any of the above tools to aid in safe gameplay.

The only way to self-exclude here is to email [email protected] to close your account.

While we still consider Fortune Wheelz a legit gaming site, this significantly affected our player experience score.

Yet where this sweepstakes casino falls short in self-exclusion tools, it exceeds in another player safety area: data privacy.

If you have questions or concerns about how Fortune Wheelz uses your data, you can email [email protected].

There’s also an entire page dedicated to the site’s privacy policy, which you can find in the footer of any page.

How To Join Fortune Wheelz Casino

Signing up for a Fortune Wheelz Casino account was relatively easy; it only took a few minutes to create a user profile and start playing games.

Here are the steps I needed to take to create a new player account and claim my welcome bonus:

1. Click the “Claim Offer” button.

2. Enter your email address.

3. Accept the terms and conditions and confirm you’re at least 18 years old and don’t live in a restricted state by checking the appropriate boxes.

4. Click “Join Now”.

5. Or, sign up with Google or Facebook.

6. Verify your email address.

7. Create a password.

My free Gold Coins were available for immediate gameplay as soon as I completed the above steps.

Since the KYC verification process can only be completed when making your first purchase, you don’t need to worry about this until you buy Gold Coins.

Fortune Wheelz Welcome Offer

Like at its sister sites, the Fortune Wheelz welcome bonus offers plenty of Gold Coins and a decent amount of Fortune Coins to get you started.

Luckily, there’s a good first-purchase promo that you can accept to get Free Gold Coins and Free Fortune Coins.

Making a purchase also activates the redemption button.

I rated Fortune Wheelz a 9.2 for its welcome offer because I was able to get a solid no-deposit bonus and a good first-purchase promo.

No Purchase Bonus

Upon new account signup, I was able to claim the Fortune Wheelz no-purchase bonus of 250,000 Free Gold Coins plus 300 FREE Fortune Coins upon email verification.

As soon as I had completed all the above steps, my 250,000 Free Gold Coins and 300 Free Fortune Coins were available in my account for immediate gameplay.

Simply use the “Claim Offer” button to get to the Fortune Wheelz homepage, create an account, and use the promo code LUCKY.

No-Purchase Bonus Terms and Conditions

• Get 250,000 GC after creating a new player account

• Get 300 FC after verifying your email

• No promo code is needed

First Purchase Bonus

Since Fortune Wheelz is a sweepstakes casino, you don’t need to pay to play here.

But because there was a good first-purchase bonus, I decided to take advantage of it and make a purchase.

There are two first-purchase promos available, including:

• 350,000 GC for $4.99 (usually $12.49), plus a bonus of 1,250 FC for free.

• 600,000 GC for $29.99 (usually $59.99), plus a bonus of 6,000 FC for free.

If you want to get as many bonus Free Fortune Coins as possible, the second deal is obviously the best choice.

But the first option is also good if you just want to get some Fortune Coins to try out Promotional Mode.

You’re also eligible for additional purchase bonuses that “unlock” after you’ve made your first purchase.

First-Purchase Bonus Terms and Conditions

• 350,000 GC for $4.99, plus a bonus of 1,250 FC for free

• 600,000 GC for $29.99, plus a bonus of 6,000 FC for free

• Must choose one or the other – cannot claim both bonuses

• No promo code is needed

Promotions for Existing Players

Aside from the purchase promos, there are also four types of promotions for existing players.

You may need to make a purchase to activate some of these promotions, but there are also a few ways to get Free Gold Coins and Free Fortune Coins.

For these reasons, I awarded Fortune Wheelz a 9.3 promotions rating.

Scratch & Win

When you make purchases at Fortune Coins, you can get rewarded with free Scratch & Win cards.

Collect a minimum of 5,000 FC through Gold Coins purchases to get your first scratch card.

All scratch cards are “winners” and the most you can win from any card is 1 million GC or 10,000 FC.

2x Daily Wheel Spin

Spin the Wheel of Fortune twice daily to potentially win up to 500 FC or 275,000 GC.

To claim this bonus:

1. Log into your Fortune Wheelz account.

2. Click “Promotions” in the header menu.

3. Look for the “Wheel of Fortune”.

4. Click “Play Now”.

5. Or, look for the spinning wheel icon in the lobby.

Once you’ve spun the wheel, your Free Gold Coins and Free Fortune Coins will be added to your account.

Refer-a-Friend Bonus

Refer your friends to Fortune Wheelz, using your unique referral link (in the main menu under the “Refer a Friend” tab).

When your friend signs up for a new player account using your link and makes purchases of at least $19.99 total, you’ll get 2,000 Free Fortune Coins and 500,000 Free Gold Coins; your friend will be rewarded with 500 Free Fortune Coins and 400,000 Free Gold Coins.

This is a solid friend referral bonus, which slightly increased the Fortune Wheelz promotions score.

Terms and Conditions

• Referee must use the unique referral link and make Gold Coins purchases of at least $19.99 total

• Referees must be 18+

• Referees must not have or previously had a Fortune Wheelz account

Fortune Tournaments

Play qualifying games to potentially win a portion of the prize pot.

To find out which games are included in the tournaments – and ongoing prizes – click on the “Promotions” page, find the current tournament, and click “Join Now”.

A page will load with all the participating games. You can launch the games directly from the promotions page or find them in the lobby.

Banking Methods Breakdown

Fortune Wheelz doesn’t offer very many payment or redemption options.

The only way to purchase Gold Coins is by credit or debit card, but Fortune Wheelz offers more varied redemption options.

Since credit and debit cards are the most widely used payment methods, I didn’t deduct very many points from this sweepstakes casino’s cashier score.

The redemption methods are also very convenient, so I rated Fortune Wheelz a 9.1 cashier score.

The score was also slightly lowered because the platform offers no instant redemption options.

Purchases

Even though you don’t need to pay to play at Fortune Wheelz, there are plenty of Gold Coins options available at multiple price points.

Thanks to the first-purchase promo, the minimum purchase amount is $4.99; however, after your first purchase, the minimum cost of Gold Coins is $9.99.

You can make a purchase using Visa, Mastercard, or Discover credit cards or debit cards.

Your KYC verification will also be completed when making your first purchase. The information to be verified includes your name, address, date of birth, and social security number. You’ll also need to undergo a screening process for the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) at this time.

The table below shows the current Gold Coins purchase options and how many bonus FREE Fortune Coins you’ll get with each.

Once your purchase has been processed, your Gold Coins and bonus FREE Fortune Coins should be available for immediate gameplay.

Purchases Terms & Conditions

• Minimum purchase amount is $4.99 on first purchase

• Minimum purchase amount is $9.99 for regular purchases

• Must complete KYC verification before making a purchase

Redemptions

There are several ways to process a redemption at Fortune Wheelz, including ACH transfer and Visa debit card.

After you’ve played Fortune Coins on games at Fortune Wheelz, anything you win becomes a “Winning”.

Once you’ve won at least 25 Winnings in gameplay, you can initiate a gift card redemption; you’ll need to win at least 50 Winnings to trigger a cash prize redemption. To redeem by debit card, you’ll need at least 100 Winnings.

You can redeem Winnings at a rate of 1 Winning to $1 (USD).

Winnings can only be redeemed after making a purchase at Fortune Wheelz. Once you’ve made a purchase, you’ll see the redemption button appear on your home screen.

It takes Fortune Wheelz three to five business days to process redemptions.

Redemptions Terms & Conditions

• Minimum redemption is 25 Winnings

• Redemption rate is 1 Winning to $1 (USD)

What Games Are Offered?

The majority of the games offered at Fortune Wheelz are slot titles. Play up to 200 games by NetGame, Booming Games, and BGaming.

In addition to classic slots and video slots, you’ll also be able to play jackpots and Hold’n’Win titles.

Five fish games are available at Fortune Wheelz, a few of which I haven’t seen at other sweepstakes casinos.

I rated Fortune Wheelz a 9 for its games because it doesn’t offer very many games yet, and it only offers two categories of games: slots and fish games.

Fortune Wheelz Slots

Fortune Wheelz Casino specializes in slot games. Most of the nearly 200 games available at this sweepstakes casino are slots.

You can sort slots by category, including jackpot slots and Hold’n’Link titles.

Examples of slot games you can play at Fortune Wheelz include:

• Cai Shen’s Palace

• Bonanza Billion

• Elephant’s Gold

• Piggy Riches

• Luck of Tiger

Jackpot Slots

Out of the nearly 200 or so slot games, 25 of these titles are jackpot slots. Examples of jackpot slots available at Fortune Wheelz include:

• Cleo’s Heart

• Money Temple

• Riches VegasFortune Cash

Hold’N’Link Games

In addition to its jackpot and video slots, Fortune Wheelz also features 23 Hold’n’Link games.

These are essentially “hold and win” games or games with more features and animation than other slot titles.

Just a few of the hold’n’link games available at Fortune Wheelz include:

• Cai Shen’s Palace Hold’n’Link

• Money Hive Hold’n’Link

Fortune Wheelz RTPs

Fortune Wheelz doesn’t post its game return-to-player percentages (RTPs), yet some of its iGaming developers post this information on their sites.

Sometimes you can find RTPs on the information tabs, once the games are launched. You can also always check the NetGame site to find the RTPs of its games.

Here are some examples of game RTPs at Fortune Wheelz:

• Cai Shen’s Palace: 96.10%

• Wild Buffalo Hold’n’Link: 96.22%

• Big Banker Bonanza: 96.15%

• Royal Fruits Hold’n’Link: 96.26%

• Big Catch Bonanza Perfect Haul: 96.05%

• B.U.C.K.S.: 95.32%

• The Big Game Hold’n’Link: 95.75%

Fortune Wheelz Review Conclusion

Although Fortune Wheelz is a relatively new sweepstakes casino, it has a lot of promise.

Since it’s owned by A1 Development, the same company that owns Funrize, TaoFortune, NoLimitCoins, and FunzCity, we expect to see some growth within this platform.

It offers a solid user experience with a stylish website and intuitive navigation. Games are relatively easy to find, although the library only features around 200 titles.

There’s a solid no-deposit bonus, good first purchase promo, and purchase promos for existing players, tournaments, friend referral bonus, and twice-daily spin-the-wheel promo.

The only downside is that you need to make a Gold Coins purchase before redemptions are triggered. But with Gold Coins starting at only $4.99 for the first purchase promo, it’s not a huge issue.
