Sponsor. The Sweepstakes sponsor is Jackpocket Inc. (“Sponsor”), located at 100 Park Ave, 16th Floor, New York, NY 10017.  Sponsor and its affiliates, subsidiaries, successors, assigns, agents, and any entity involved in the development, production, implementation, administration, judging or fulfillment of the Sweepstakes, and their respective representatives, officers, directors, shareholders, members and employees, including without limitation, the immediate family and/or household members of such individuals, are not eligible to participate.   

Entry Period.  This Sweepstakes begins on June 10th, 2024 at 12:00:01 PM Eastern Time (“ET”) and ends on July 31st, 2024 at 11:59:59 PM ET (“Entry Period”).  All times are measured by Eastern Time (“ET”).  The Sponsor’s database computer is the official timekeeping device for the Sweepstakes.  Each “day” for purposes of these Official Rules is measured by ET.

How to Enter.  During the Entry Period, there are two ways to enter.

1. Entry with Purchase Via App:  First, download or open the Jackpocket mobile application (the “App”) and navigate to the Giveaway Page in the App; second, tap ‘Activate’ for this Sweepstakes; and third, place an official state lottery ticket order on the App from the state lottery where you are physically located in one of the Participating Jurisdictions.  Every $1.00 spent on such ticket orders in the same account during the Entry Period after this Sweepstakes has been activated in that account is equal to one (1) entry in this Sweepstakes without need to activate again.  Tapping ‘Activate’ does not provide a discount to purchase and is used only to trigger and keep track of entries. For new users, placing an order will require downloading the App, opening and registering an account, and funding the account prior to placing the order.  All use of the App is subject to its general terms and conditions at jackpocket.com/tos.  Lottery ticket orders made using promotional credits and/or promotional funds will not provide any entries in the Sweepstakes for the amounts of such promotional credits and/or promotional funds.

 

In order to enter with purchase via the App, you must have the following versions of iOS or Android, as applicable, installed:  

 

Jackpocket Android Version 2.13.7 or higher
Jackpocket iOS Version 2.13.8 or higher

2. Free Entry via Website: You may also enter for free, without any purchase, by doing the following: First, download the App and open and register an account, which is free to do; and second, after creating your account, during the Entry Period, go to https://jackpocket.typeform.com/to/fG8MArik (the “Site”), and complete the typeform located there with the following information: full name, phone number, mailing address and the email address you used to register your Jackpocket account.  Each time you properly complete and submit the typeform on the Site, you receive ten (10) entries, which is equal or greater than the average number of dollars currently spent per day by users of the App to purchase state lottery tickets. IMPORTANT: The email address that you enter in the typeform MUST match the email address that you used to register your Jackpocket account. If the email addresses do not match, then you will not receive any entries for the typeform on which the email addresses did not match. Upon successful completion of both of the steps noted hereunder, you do not need to fund your Jackpocket account in order to enter the Sweepstakes during the Entry Period and registering for a Jackpocket account is free.   

 

Limitations on Entries. LIMIT OF ONE HUNDRED (100) ENTRIES PER PERSON PER DAY DURING THE ENTRY PERIOD, REGARDLESS OF METHOD OF ENTRY, INCLUDING ANY COMBINATION OF ENTRIES GENERATED BY EITHER OR BOTH OF THE METHODS DESCRIBED ABOVE.  Any attempt to submit more than the stated limit on entries by any means, including but not limited to use of multiple accounts, identities, email addresses or otherwise is grounds for disqualification.  Each individual must submit his/her own entries.  No third-party entry or entry through any sweepstakes service is permitted.  Use of robotic or any other automated means of entry is strictly prohibited.

Winners and Prizes.  One (1) winner will be chosen.  The winner and prize are as follows:  

The total ARV of all prizes available for award is $3,000.00. Prize awarded in the form of a $3,000 Visa Gift Card that the winner can use to pay for a winter vacation trip or for any other purpose.

Winner is solely responsible for any applicable federal, state, and local taxes as a result of acceptance of the prize.  Sponsor shall provide winner with applicable tax forms for withholding purposes and winner must return to Sponsor a W9 or W-8 BEN tax form, as applicable, prior to receiving the prize, if any such forms are required to be provided by Sponsor. Prizes may be subject to tax withholdings as required by law. Winner is solely responsible for determining winner’s tax liability that is in addition to or different from that described in this section. No substitution or transfer of prize except in Sponsor’s discretion; provided that if the advertised prize becomes unavailable for any reason, an alternate prize of comparable value may be awarded.  If winner’s Jackpocket account is locked, excluded or otherwise inactive, winner must reactivate the account to use the credits.  
Drawing.  Winner will be selected in a random drawing from among all eligible entries collected during the Entry Period, taking place on or about five (5) business days after the end of the Entry Period.  Decisions of the judges are final and binding on all matters relating to the Sweepstakes and these Official Rules.  Any entrant or potential winner may be disqualified and forfeit prize if they are not eligible or violate a rule, gained unfair advantage in the Sweepstakes, or obtained winner status using fraudulent means.  If there is a dispute about the identity of an entrant, prize will be awarded to the natural person associated with the Jackpocket account or provided by email.  If a winner is found to be ineligible or not in compliance with Sweepstakes rules, such winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner will be awarded the prize.  Each potential winner will be notified by in-app message and/or email using information associated with their Jackpocket account. If any prize is returned as undeliverable, then such prize will be forfeited and another winner may be randomly drawn.  Each potential winner may be required to execute an Affidavit of Eligibility, a Liability Release, and (where legal) a Publicity Release; failure to comply when requested may result in disqualification and award of prize to an alternate winner.

Odds.  The odds of winning will depend on the number of eligible entries received.
