Fliff is one of America’s fastest-growing social sportsbooks, where you can enjoy virtual coin-powered sports betting in multiple US states. And yes, right now, Fliff is legal in Alabama.
Today, I’ll be talking about why and how the app is able to operate in AL, a state where, as you and I both know, conventional online sports betting is not deemed legal. From what Fliff is and how it works, to the general pros and cons of using the app, here’s everything you Alabamians need to know.
As already outlined above, yes, you can. And the reasons behind this are pretty simple.
While the Cotton State does not currently permit cash-based online sports betting at the time of writing, Fliff isn’t really a conventional betting app.
Instead, it’s a virtual coin-powered social sportsbook that offers free-to-play games that involve making sports predictions using virtual coins.
At Fliff, then:
I’ll talk more about how the site works in a bit, but generally, the lack of any upfront purchase requirement or cash play capabilities means that Fliff is legal in Oklahoma, Alabama, and a whole bunch of other US states.
But first, is the site any good? Here are some ins and outs to help you decide.
Rejoice, because not only is Fliff legal in Alabama, but the site has an awful lot to offer to sports fans in the state.
Covering more than 10 major sports markets from the NFL and MLB to the Stanley Cup, and offering a whole bunch of free-to-claim bonuses, there’s a lot to get your hooks into here. But first, it’s important to shape up on how Fliff’s social sportsbook works before you create an account and start betting.
Fliff is legal in Minnesota, Alabama, and more than 40 other US states, too. And no matter where you're playing from, the site uses an easy-to-understand two-tier coin system that functions as follows:
| Type of coin | What is it? | How can you collect some? | Does it have any cash value? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fliff Coins | In Fliff’s own words, a “freemium” coin – i.e., it’s an online token that exists for entertainment purposes only. | By claiming a Fliff Coins bonus, winning Fliff Coins based social bets, or purchasing optional Fliff Coins packages on the app. | No. This is a just for fun online currency. |
| Sweepstakes Coins | A sweepstakes style online token that has a prize redeemable value in the real world. | By activating free to claim Sweepstakes Coins bonuses or winning Fliff Coins based social bets only. Sweepstakes Coins are never purchasable, and in the state of AL, the latest T&Cs suggest you won’t currently get any free Sweepstakes Coins alongside optional Fliff Coins purchases you make in the state either, I’m afraid. | No. But you can redeem Sweepstakes Coins for gift cards and cash prizes once certain T&Cs have been satisfied. |
When signing up from a Fliff-friendly US state, you’ll generally get a free welcome bonus consisting of some free Fliff Coins and/or Sweeps Coins to get you started.
I’ll explain how to unlock yours in AL in a sec, but first, let’s quickly run through those select few US states that are currently not Fliff-friendly.
Put simply, no. While Fliff is legal in Alabama, the site is currently off-limits entirely in Washington.
What’s more, in other states, Fliff is available, but there are restrictions on what kinds of social sportsbook games you can play.
Fliff is legal in Nevada, for example, but only betting with Fliff Coins on a just-for-fun basis is permitted in the state. The same goes in Hawaii, Idaho, Louisiana, and Tennessee. In these five states, “promotional play” using Sweeps Coins is prohibited, meaning Sweeps Coins prize redemption options aren’t offered in these regions either.
Fliff is available in Alabama with both Fliff Coins and Sweepsstakes Coins functionality, then. What’s more, signing up with the brand and claiming your first bonus is as easy as pie.
All you need to do is:
I’ve found that Fliff’s bonuses sometimes vary from state to state. I got 1,000 free Fliff Coins and 1 Sweeps Coin when I registered from NY, for example, but your bonus in AL may vary.
From the get-go, most players will also have the option of unlocking an additional “First Purchase Offer” that’s good for 500 Fliff Coins with a strictly optional Fliff Coins package buy-in of $100.
It’s good news all around for Alabamians, then, as you guys can enjoy both Fliff Coins and Sweeps Coins bets on Fliff right now, without having to worry about some of the gameplay restrictions faced by other Fliff users elsewhere.
But before you download Fliff’s app, don’t forget to follow the steps I outlined above to bag your sign-up bonus. And remember, you’re under no obligation to buy into the First Purchase Offer part of the deal if you don’t want to. Happy social betting.
Basically, the former exist just for fun, while the latter are a sweepstakes-style currency used for “promotional play” games, that have a prize redeemable value after meeting the site’s playthrough and eligibility criteria.
Right now, yes, you can – but you won’t be able to take part in any Sweeps Coins “promotional play” games on the site. In short, Fliff is legal in Tennessee, but only just for fun; Fliff Coins-powered sports picks are permitted in the state. Find out more with my latest Fliff reviews and guides today.
At the time of writing, no. Fliff’s T&Cs make clear that in AL, players can only obtain Sweeps Coin bonuses by claiming free-to-play promos either on the app or as part of social media giveaways. This is a bit of a shame, as players in other US states, such as Florida and California for example, can claim free Sweeps Coin bonuses alongside their optional Fliff Coins purchases, too.
