How to Enter. There are two ways to enter during the Entry Period:
- 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 Texas state lottery. 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 (“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.
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
Jackpocket iOS Version 2.13.8
- Free Entry via Website: You may also enter for free, without any purchase, by doing the following (the “Free Entry”): 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/GTLSVuts (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.

Duplicate entries for a single individual will be disqualified. All entries become the property of the Sweepstakes Parties.
The entrant must be the authorized account holder of the registered Jackpocket account associated with the entry. In the event of a dispute over the identity of an entrant or potential winner in the Sweepstakes, the entrant or potential winner will be deemed the authorized account holder of the email address associated with the Jackpocket account. “Authorized Account Holder” is defined as the natural person in whose name the email account was opened, as long as such person is otherwise eligible in accordance with these Official Rules. In the event a dispute regarding the identity of an entrant or potential winner cannot be resolved to Sweepstakes Parties’ satisfaction, , in their sole discretion, the affected entry will be deemed ineligible. Entries will not be acknowledged except as provided herein.

Approximate retail value to each winner: $560.00 USD.

If there is a dispute about the identity of an entrant, prize will be awarded to the natural person associated with the account or provided by email. If a winner is found to be ineligible or not in compliance with the Sweepstakes rules, such winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner will be awarded the prize in a separate random drawing at Sweepstakes Parties’ sole discretion. Winner will be notified by phone and/or email associated with their Jackpocket account or Free Entry. Inability of Administrator to contact winner by telephone and/or email within twenty-four (24) hours after selection may result in disqualification of such winner and an alternate winner may be selected in a random drawing at Administrator’s sole discretion. Prize will be sent to each winner by email within twenty-four (24) hours after such winner has been notified and accepted the prize. If a 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.
