If you love entering sweepstakes but are looking to boost your chances of winning, understanding entry limits can help. We break down two popular categories — single-entry and daily — to give you a better idea of what to pick.
Weigh the pros and cons
There are advantages and disadvantages to both single-entry and daily sweepstakes. The obvious difference between the two is the entry limits. Hence, a single-entry sweepstake that allows you to enroll once requires less effort. You can dedicate the rest of your time to entering other sweeps and thereby increase your chances of winning a variety of prizes. On the other hand, daily sweeps allow you to submit entries consecutively. So, if you are persistent, you will have an advantage over the other participants who don’t have the bandwidth to return time and again.
Balancing is the best way to go
You need to assess the time you’re willing to spend on entering these two types of sweepstakes. The key is to balance the time spent between single-entry and daily sweepstakes. Start by noting down how much time you wish to spend on them per day, and then enter sweeps based on the prizes you need the most and the deadline mentioned. Bookmarking sweepstakes is a great way to keep track of opportunities.
Explore other entry limits
Based on your comfort, you can also opt for weekly and monthly sweepstakes. It requires less time from you as compared to daily sweeps. Plus, they have an advantage over the single-entry kind as you’ll be able to enter them multiple times. But something is always better than nothing so don’t shy away from single-entry sweepstakes either. At the end of the day, it’s just a one-time effort. Make a schedule for your sweeps and reap the benefits of what each entry limit has to offer. You never know which one may be lucky for you.
