Why marketers run sweepstakes

Three reasons sweepstakes still beat every other tactic

Grow your email list fast

Sweepstakes are one of the highest-yield list-building tactics on the internet. Most entries include a verified email — every campaign is a list-building moment, with names and custom data passed to your CRM via Zapier or webhook.

Drive a traffic spike on demand

Run a sweepstakes when you need attention — product launch, holiday, milestone, store opening. Every share is a referral, every entry compounds the audience.

Build viral entry mechanics

Bonus entries for sharing, referring friends, following on social. The sweepstakes grows itself — one entrant brings ten, and the prize stays the same.

FAQ

Sweepstakes maker questions answered

Everything marketers ask before launching their first sweepstakes with Woobox.

How do I create a sweepstakes online?
Type one sentence describing your prize, audience, and dates. The Woobox AI sweepstakes maker writes the entry copy, designs a hosted landing page, configures the entry form, and publishes your sweepstakes on a public URL in seconds. The free starting tier covers building, launching, and collecting entries on your first sweepstakes — no credit card needed.
Is the sweepstakes maker actually free?
Yes. Building, customizing, and launching a sweepstakes is free. Paid plans add capacity, advanced bonus-entry methods, custom domains, white-labeling, and priority support — but you do not need a credit card to ship your first online sweepstakes.
Can I require email entry?
Yes. Email is the default entry field on every sweepstakes. You can also collect names, phone numbers, custom fields, and consent checkboxes. Sweepstakes entries export to CSV, connect to your email and CRM tools via Zapier and webhooks.
Can I add bonus entry methods like Instagram follow or referrals?
Yes. Award bonus sweepstakes entries for following you on Instagram, Facebook, X, YouTube, or TikTok, sharing the page, watching a video, visiting a URL, or referring friends — verified via referral link tracking and click-through where direct API verification is not possible. Every entrant gets a unique referral link, which is the highest-yield way to make a sweepstakes go viral.
Can I embed the sweepstakes on my website?
Yes. Every Woobox sweepstakes comes with a one-line embed snippet that drops the campaign natively into any website, blog, or landing page. The embed is mobile-optimized and updates entry counts in real time.
How do you pick a winner randomly?
One click in your dashboard. Select the number of winners, optionally weight by entry count or filter by entry method, and Woobox picks randomly using a seeded RNG and emails the winners automatically. You can re-roll if a winner does not respond within your fulfillment window — every draw is logged for audit.
Are sweepstakes legal? Do you generate official rules?
Sweepstakes are legal in the United States and most countries when you publish official rules and avoid pay-to-enter mechanics. Woobox includes starter rules text covering eligibility, entry period, prize description, odds, and winner selection that you can customize per sweepstakes. Not legal advice — consult counsel for high-value or multi-jurisdiction promotions.
Can I run a sweepstakes on Facebook or Instagram?
Yes. Share your hosted sweepstakes URL in a Facebook post, Instagram bio, story link sticker, or TikTok caption. The Woobox sweepstakes page is mobile-first, loads fast inside in-app browsers, and complies with Meta's promotion guidelines (no requiring shares to a personal timeline).
How does this compare to other sweepstakes tools?
Most sweepstakes tools give you a widget you embed on a page you already have. Woobox builds the entire sweepstakes — branded landing page, entry form, lead capture, bonus methods, hosted URL, and dashboard — from one prompt, with no design work. It is a sweepstakes generator, not a widget.
Can I export entries as a CSV?
Yes. Export every sweepstakes entry, every bonus action, every email, and every custom field as CSV anytime. Paid plans add direct API access and webhooks so entries stream into your warehouse, dashboard, or fulfillment tool.
What's the largest sweepstakes Woobox can handle?
Sweepstakes scale to millions of entries. Real-time entry counts and analytics stay fast even when traffic spikes from a TV mention, a celebrity share, or a viral post. Woobox has been running sweepstakes for brands since 2010.
Can I run a daily-entry sweepstakes?
Yes. Daily-entry sweepstakes (one entry per person per 24 hours) are a built-in entry mode and one of the highest-engagement formats — entrants come back daily, which keeps your brand front-of-mind for the duration of the campaign. You can also run weekly drawings inside a long-running sweepstakes.
