How Online Sweepstakes Work

A sweepstakes is a chance-based promotion where eligible entrants have the opportunity to win prizes. Official promotions include Official Rules that detail eligibility, entry period, how winners are chosen, odds of winning, prize description and value, and how to claim prizes. Legitimate promotions never require unlawful fees to receive a prize.

  • ✓ Eligibility requirements (age, location) and entry limits per person/device.
  • ✓ Disclosure of prize value and how winners are selected and notified.
