Ensure Legal Sweepstakes Compliance

Summary

To ensure your online sweepstakes site is legal in Florida, offer no-purchase entries, clear rules, and disclose prizes and odds. Avoid lottery mechanics by ensuring the sweepstakes does not involve prize, chance, and consideration. The $5,000 limit refers to the total prize value; if it exceeds this, filing with the state may be required. Limiting daily withdrawals to $5,000 does not necessarily comply if the total prize value is over $5,000. Consider consulting a legal expert to review your sweepstakes rules for compliance with Florida laws.
