Sweepstakes

This article walks you through setting up a contest in co:brand, from configuring your contest details and eligibility rules to randomly selecting winners once entries are in.

First, enter your contest details. Fans will see these on the Drop page, summarized in the "Contest Details" section. As you update the details and design, the Drop preview updates too.

Set your start and end dates in the timezone of your choice. You can also add country restrictions if needed.

If you turn on age restrictions, fans must enter a birth date to sign up. Fans who don't meet the minimum age won't be able to enter.

You're required to upload your Prize Terms & Conditions as a PDF, which will appear as a link within the Drop. Fans must check the box agreeing to these terms before they can enter.

For additional legal information like extra terms or policies, these can be included in the Additional Tools section.

Please note, fans are not required to opt in to receive marketing messages to sign up for the Sweepstake Drop.

Once you've collected signups, head to the Signups tab and select Pick Winners. This randomly selects from all eligible entries. Fans who were already picked in an earlier draw are automatically excluded.

If the contest is still open when you pick winners, only fans who signed up before that point are eligible. Fans who sign up after won't be included in that draw.

Winners are permanent once selected, but you can run another draw later to pick more. New winners are added to the end of the list, in the order they were drawn.

Turn on age verification to add a birth date field to your Drop page. This automatically screens out entrants who don't meet the minimum age.

Use the dropdown above the Drop form preview to see how your Drop looks at each stage of the fan journey.

Set an end date so fans know when the contest closes, or add a countdown ticker via the Content Blocks step.

Can fans submit multiple entries?

No — each fan is limited to one entry.

How many winners can I select?

As many as you'd like. There's no limit on the number of winners for a giveaway.

What happens if a fan signs up from a restricted country?

Fans must enter a city located within your approved country list to complete sign-up. Entries from outside that list won't go through.
