Grade: D
Cheddr is a real, operating sweepstakes casino, but its record is poor enough that we would not call it a safe pick. SweepsGuard grades it D based on player complaints, operator conduct, and redemption reliability. That grade is our independent assessment, not a guarantee — read the site's own sweepstakes rules and check its complaint history before you deposit.
Cheddr is an iPhone-only social sports prediction app operated by Cheddr Picks, Inc. Rather than casino games, it runs weekly "Pick'em" contests and leaderboards: players use free Cheddr Coins for entertainment and can be awarded Cheddr Cash, a separate currency that — after clearing playthrough — may be redeemed for prizes. It launched in January 2026 and is still effectively in beta. Participation is limited to U.S. adults in eligible states, and the app currently excludes 15 states. Cheddr Cash lapses after 30 days of inactivity, so the app expects you back rather more often than the 60-day norm elsewhere.
There is a modest but real basis to judge from. Cheddr has no Trustpilot presence, and its App Store rating rests on only a handful of reviews that are both thin and mixed. Independent reviewers have flagged that customer support is not yet fully operational and has been unresponsive — a notable concern for any platform that pays prizes. Payout reports remain limited, though the app does appear to pay at least some users.
These are advertised features taken from the app and its rules; none is yet confirmed through real redemptions.
Essentially none. Cheddr launched in January 2026 and remains in an early, beta-stage rollout, and Cheddr Picks, Inc. has no track record we can verify. Its reliability at scale remains largely unproven, even though some redemptions do appear to go through.
Cheddr does pay some users, but the friction is real: support is effectively invisible, with players reporting emails unanswered for weeks, and its "track" rollover mechanic can forfeit a redeemable balance if a credit is played down to zero. A low per-transaction withdrawal cap adds to the drag. Prizes are reachable, but the combination of dead support and balance-forfeiting rules keeps this below a clean bill of health.
