Run a Sweepstakes That Doubles Your Email List

Most sweepstakes get you sign-ups. Ours get you sign-ups that bring more sign-ups. Pick a prize, build a page in minutes, and let bonus entries for referrals turn every entrant into a recruiter.

Trusted by brands that have grown 100 million+ leads on KickoffLabs since 2011.

Free plan, no credit card. Upgrade only when your sweepstakes takes off.

How a KickoffLabs sweepstakes actually works

Leads enter to win and instantly get a personal share link. Every friend they refer — plus any social action you choose — earns them bonus entries. We track every action, screen for fraud, and help you pick a verified winner. You keep the leads.

What is a sweepstakes campaign on KickoffLabs?

A KickoffLabs sweepstakes is a no-purchase-necessary prize drawing where entrants earn bonus entries for referring friends, sharing on social, joining your SMS list, or completing other actions you choose. The platform tracks every action, blocks fraud, and helps you pick a verified winner — so a single prize can grow your audience by thousands of qualified leads.

Built and battle-tested since 2011 across over 100 million leads. Free to start, no credit card required.

Why run a sweepstakes in 2026?

CPMs keep climbing. Inboxes keep getting noisier. A well-run sweepstakes is still one of the cheapest ways to grow an email and SMS list — because your entrants do the marketing for you.

Grow your email and SMS list, fast

The right prize gives a stranger a real reason to hand over their email and phone number. We make sure those leads sync straight into your email and SMS tools.

Turn every entrant into a referrer

Every entrant gets a personal share link. The more friends they bring, the better their odds. Want to push harder? Award a side prize if a friend they referred wins.

Engage the list you already have

Your best customers want to play. Let them earn extra entries through contest actions — refer friends, drop their phone number, share a post, leave a review, or watch a video.

Boost sales, not just sign-ups

Award bonus entries for purchases during the campaign. Then retarget your entrants on Meta and Google with special offers after the drawing closes.

Live in minutes, not weeks

Pick a sweepstakes template, swap in your prize, and publish. Most KickoffLabs sweepstakes launch the same day they’re started.

Example KickoffLabs bonus entry sweepstakes contest box on a brand site.

Random drawings come with real obligations. Fraud, eligibility, official rules, state-by-state requirements — KickoffLabs handles the boring parts so you can focus on the prize.

Verified winner picker

Random selection with a public proof page. No spreadsheets, no “trust me” email screenshots.

Fraud detection
