Overview Stimi was a social sportsbook and prediction gaming platform operated by PropX Incorporated, a New York-based company registered at 447 Broadway, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10013. Unlike traditional sweepstakes casinos, Stimi offered sports and event prediction markets using two virtual currencies: Stimi Coins for social play and Stimi Cash for sweepstakes-style contests with real cash prizes. The platform launched its iOS and Android apps in January 2026 and was available in approximately 37 US states. In May 2026, PropX announced via an in-app notice that Stimi was winding down operations — purchases were disabled, play ended on May 22, 2026, and players had until May 31, 2026 to redeem remaining balances. SweepsGuard initially graded Stimi a C in February 2026 and downgraded it to a D in April 2026 after documenting a sustained pattern of removed player-friendly features, contracting market coverage, and dismissive community management. The closure confirmed the trajectory that prompted the downgrade. Player Reception Stimi never established a meaningful Trustpilot presence — the company profile carried zero reviews throughout its existence. Independent expert reviews from sweepstakes review outlets rated the platform in the mid-tier range, generally praising the unique prediction-gaming format while flagging thin sports market coverage, an undefined VIP program, and Discord-only customer support. App store reviews were modestly positive but reflected a small early sample. SweepsGuard's own player experience found that redemptions at the $500 weekly cap consistently processed within 2–3 business days, but the broader product experience degraded materially between launch and closure. Player feedback raised through Stimi's Discord community was met with dismissiveness and, in at least one documented case, a 24-hour timeout issued to a player for surfacing legitimate product concerns. Strengths Unique prediction-gaming format covering sports, pop culture, and trending events — a genuine alternative to slots-based sweepstakes platforms Low $50 redemption minimum — meaningfully better than the $100 industry standard for bank transfers Fast redemption processing — payouts at the weekly cap consistently cleared within 2–3 business days throughout the platform's operation Robust responsible gaming tools including deposit limits, loss limits, session timers, and self-exclusion options Comprehensive account history with downloadable transaction records Major Issues The platform permanently closed — purchases were disabled, play ended May 22, 2026, and redemptions closed May 31, 2026 Daily free Stimi Cash credit was removed after launch — this was one of the platform's most player-friendly features and a key reason for its initial favorable assessment Referral rewards were capped, materially reducing the value of what was initially a generous two-sided incentive Sports market coverage contracted rather than expanded — props, futures, series markets, and entire sports categories were removed or became unavailable Bet grading on settled events was slow and inconsistent, with clearly resolved markets remaining ungraded for extended periods $500 weekly redemption cap limited the platform's appeal for engaged players Community management was actively hostile to feedback — players raising substantive concerns through Discord were dismissed and, in at least one case, timed out No Trustpilot review base and limited independent expert coverage throughout the platform's entire lifespan Track Record Stimi was operated by PropX Incorporated, with no prior sweepstakes brands in its portfolio. The platform launched in January 2026, operated for approximately four months, and announced its shutdown in May 2026. SweepsGuard's February 2026 assessment graded it a C with explicit acknowledgment that the trajectory would matter more than the snapshot. That trajectory moved consistently in the wrong direction: the daily free credit was removed, referral rewards were reduced, sports market coverage narrowed, bet grading slowed, and community management became defensive. The April 2026 downgrade to D reflected these patterns. To the platform's credit, redemptions continued to process reliably throughout its operation — no formal complaints regarding non-payment or stonewalled redemptions were received by SweepsGuard. The closure appears to be a voluntary wind-down with advance notice rather than an abrupt disappearance, which gave players a defined window to redeem remaining balances. SweepsGuard Status Stimi has been marked as Closed on SweepsGuard. The platform announced in May 2026 that it was permanently winding down — purchases were disabled, play ended on May 22, 2026, and players had until May 31, 2026 to redeem remaining balances. Players with outstanding Stimi Cash balances should have prioritized redemption before the May 31 deadline, as any unredeemed balance was forfeited after that date. SweepsGuard did not receive any formal complaints regarding Stimi during its operation. This page will remain as a historical record.
