How to Run a Sweepstakes

In this tutorial, Catie from RallyUp walks you through how to set up and run a Sweepstakes: from adding prizes and entry levels to understanding compliance requirements and what donors see on your Campaign Page. 

RallyUp’s Sweepstakes tool is built for nonprofits and organizations that want to run a giveaway but aren’t able to run a Raffle due to local restrictions. Unlike Raffles, Sweepstakes must offer a free method of entry — and RallyUp handles the compliance requirements automatically, including official rules, the alternate entry option, and a quick review service before your Campaign goes live.
