10 sweepstakes administration companies to compare

Start with the job you need done

For a Shopify merchandise giveaway, Clean Sweeps gives you purchase-entry automation, product bonuses, storefront displays and entrant management in one app. A professional sweepstakes administrator can take on a different set of responsibilities: promotion planning, rules coordination, filings, winner verification and prize logistics. Your campaign may benefit from both.

These ten companies were selected for their published administration or promotion services. This is a practical shortlist, not a ranking by search volume or popularity. The service summaries describe the linked sources; request a written proposal to confirm what each company will do for you.

Compare the services before comparing the price

An agency proposal may cover an entire campaign, while Clean Sweeps plans cover app access with monthly processed-order limits. Compare each quote's deliverables and billing unit. Request a quote where a usable package price is not specified in the sources reviewed; this does not mean the company lacks a public price elsewhere.

American Sweepstakes & Promotion Co.

American Sweepstakes explicitly offers e-commerce giveaway services alongside official rules, compliance support, winner administration and prize fulfillment. Its published services include affidavit verification and tax reporting. That makes it a useful company to contact when your Shopify campaign needs someone responsible for administration beyond collecting entries.

What to ask: Ask how purchase entries and your chosen free-entry method will be reconciled, who approves the final draw file, and whether prize delivery and winner paperwork are included in the quote.

Marden-Kane

Marden-Kane lists AMOE management, winner clearances, travel coordination and hosted promotion sites. It also supports judging workflows and public voting for contests. Its services page distinguishes its practical compliance support from legal advice, a useful distinction when you are assigning responsibilities between an administrator and your own counsel.

What to ask: Ask which services apply to your chance-based sweepstakes, whether you can retain your Shopify storefront, and how customer inquiries and free entries will be handled.

Don Jagoda Associates (DJA)

Don Jagoda Associates is named as administrator in Coca-Cola's 2026 Essence Festival of Culture sweepstakes rules. This is a concrete administration example, not an endorsement or an open promotion to enter. DJA's company profile also lists sweepstakes, contests, instant-win games and consumer rewards among its specialties.

What to ask: For a Shopify merchandise campaign, request an explicit scope for entry intake, winner handling and fulfillment. A company's role in another promotion does not establish what your engagement includes.

Realtime Media

Realtime Media separates its PromoAdmin administration services from its PromoPick entry-collection technology. It advertises both individual services and end-to-end promotion delivery, with options for branded microsites, social entries and SMS. That separation gives merchants a concrete starting point for discussing whether an existing commerce workflow can remain in place.

What to ask: Ask for administration-only and full-development scopes separately, including the entry format each requires and the responsibilities for winner outreach and prize shipping.

US Sweepstakes & Fulfillment

US Sweepstakes & Fulfillment describes a service spanning campaign planning, official rules, registrations, winner verification and prize delivery. Its fulfillment offering includes cash, gift cards, merchandise and travel, as well as winner support and tax reporting. Those operational details matter when the prize is more complicated than a single shipped product.

What to ask: Provide the prize list and delivery destinations when requesting a quote. Ask which procurement, shipping, winner-support and tax-reporting costs are included and which are separate.

CFA Promo / Cohen-Friedberg Associates

CFA Promo describes coordination with sponsor counsel, entry-integrity controls, documented drawings and fulfillment. It publishes administration packages starting at $2,000, with final pricing dependent on the promotion. That is an agency package starting point, not a monthly app subscription or a guarantee that every service is included.

What to ask: Ask for the package deliverables, exclusions, filing costs and launch dependencies in writing. Compare its quote against the same prize, audience, entry methods and campaign dates used in other proposals.

Merkle Promotions

Merkle Promotions combines strategy, creative work, promotion technology and administration. Its site includes purchase-validation and receipt-upload experiences alongside games, legal compliance and fulfillment. The company identifies ePrize and HelloWorld as earlier names; they are included here under Merkle, rather than counted as additional agencies.

What to ask: If your campaign spans retail receipts, branded games and an online store, ask which channels share an entry record and how data moves between the promotion platform and your commerce systems.

ebbo

ebbo positions sweepstakes within a broader loyalty strategy, including member acquisition, opt-ins and participation across channels. Its offering lists creative, development, analytics, legal support and prize management. Its rebrand brought the Clarus Commerce and PrizeLogic businesses under the ebbo name, so PrizeLogic is not counted separately in this guide.

What to ask: Ask whether you need a standalone campaign or a wider loyalty engagement, what customer data is collected, and how an existing store and membership program fit the proposed scope.

Ventura Associates

Ventura Associates lists brand activation, digital technology, social campaigns, experiential marketing and compliance support. It also offers cooperative sweepstakes, a distinct model to investigate when a shared promotion might fit your audience. Its broader marketing services should be evaluated against what your specific merchandise giveaway needs.

What to ask: Ask whether the proposed campaign is exclusive to your brand or shared, who owns the entrant relationship, and which storefront, administration and fulfillment responsibilities remain with your team.

Promosis

Promosis describes support for official rules, registration, winner verification and prize coordination. It also explicitly covers entry monitoring, including duplicate submissions, automated activity and suspicious referral behavior. Its social-promotion services include moderation and platform-specific considerations, which can matter when your campaign extends beyond the store.

What to ask: Ask how flagged entries are reviewed, who makes eligibility decisions, and what records your team receives. Clarify how purchase, referral and free-entry records will be reconciled before selection.

Use Clean Sweeps for the Shopify purchase-entry workflow

Clean Sweeps is a strong fit when your daily work is configuring entries per dollar, showing entry opportunities on products and managing the resulting entrant records. Start with your campaign's approved entry rules, then configure the app and test the customer experience before promoting the giveaway.

• Set the entry rate, eligible products and product bonuses. Match every advertised offer to the campaign configuration.
• Place the product entry widget; add cart and guest lookup displays on Gold and above so shoppers can understand their entries.
• Add referral rewards and memberships on Platinum and above when those mechanics are part of your approved campaign.
• On Diamond, use the no-purchase AMOE request form with pending review and approval. Agree on the free-entry process and review criteria with your administrator or counsel before launch.
• If an administrator conducts the drawing, agree on the export format, cutoff and reconciliation process in advance. This is a proposed working arrangement, not a claim of an integration with any listed agency.

You can use Clean Sweeps as your software without hiring one of these agencies when your team has separately arranged the necessary legal and operational work. App setup and an AMOE form do not by themselves establish that a promotion is legally ready. Have qualified counsel review your specific campaign. See the Clean Sweeps setup guide and current plans and feature availability.

Send every agency the same brief

Prepare one document with campaign dates, eligible locations, prize values, expected order volume and entry methods. Include the purchase-entry rate, any multipliers, referral mechanics and intended AMOE. This helps proposals address the same campaign instead of different assumptions.

• Who approves official rules, advertisements and later campaign changes?
• Who handles any required registrations, bonds and associated costs?
• Who receives free entries and resolves duplicate or disputed records?
• Who performs the drawing, verifies eligibility and contacts alternates?
• Who owns prize delivery, tax documentation and entrant support?
• What records are returned, how are they transferred, and when are they deleted?

Keep the selected responsibilities in the contract. Clean Sweeps setup support can help with the app configuration and standard widgets; it does not silently transfer legal administration or fulfillment duties from your business to the app team.
