ViralSweep’s Sweepstakes App lets you easily create, run, and manage sweepstakes—either embedded on your website or hosted on a shareable landing page.

What you can do

With the Sweepstakes App, you can:

  • Collect sweepstakes entries

  • Gather any type of entrant data using customizable forms

  • Encourage more participation by rewarding users with extra entries for completing social actions

  • Connect with your email marketing platform or CRM

  • Embed your sweepstakes on any webpage

  • Track performance with real-time analytics and social insights

  • Randomly select winners

How it works

  1. Create your sweepstakes and customize your entry form

  2. Publish it on your website or use a hosted link

  3. Promote your campaign and drive traffic

  4. Monitor performance and engagement in real time

  5. Draw winners when your campaign ends


How do I get the link for my promotion?

You can quickly access a shareable link to your promotion directly in ViralSweep.

Find your direct link

  1. Go to your promotion in ViralSweep

  2. Click Install

  3. Select Direct Link

The URL shown here is your promotion’s direct link.


What is the direct link?

The Direct Link is a shareable URL that takes users straight to your promotion.

You can use it to:

  • Share your promotion in emails, social posts, or ads

  • Link directly to your sweepstakes entry page

  • Send users to your promotion without needing to embed it on a website

Anyone who clicks this link will be taken directly to your live promotion.


Important notes

  • Purchase-based promotions do not include a Direct Link
    These promotions must be accessed through their connected platform (such as Shopify)
