Instant Win Prizes

The odds of winning an Instant Win Prize will be 1 in 20 or better. Each entrant who receives a “win” message will be deemed a potential Instant Win Prize winner pending confirmation and verification of the entrant’s eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules, as determined by Sponsor and Administrator in their sole and absolute discretion. Each entrant who receives a “win” message will receive their prize in the mobile wallet and redeem their instant win prize at a participating Circle K. The instant-win prize must be redeemed within 3 days unless otherwise specified by the Sponsor. See Section 4 above for an alternative method of entry winner information.

The potential winner will be notified on or about two to five days after the drawing. Failure by potential winner to respond to the initial verification within 72 hours of notification will result in disqualification and Administrator will select an alternate potential winner in the same manner. Odds of winning the grand prize depend on the number of eligible entries received during the Sweepstakes Entry Period. 

Random Drawings for Weekly Prizes Amongst Top 100 from Leaderboard

The potential winners will be contacted via text message using the contact details provided with the entry and may be awarded the prize subject to verification of eligibility and compliance with the terms of these Official Rules. The potential winner will be notified on or about two to five days after the respective drawing. Failure by potential winner to respond to the initial verification within 72 hours of notification will result in disqualification and Administrator will select an alternate potential winner in the same manner. Odds of a winning weekly prize depend on the number of people that played the Bonus Game that week and their skill compared to yours. Limit of one weekly prize per person for the Sweepstakes. 

All potential winning game plays are subject to verification by Sponsor or Administrator, whose decisions are final and binding. An entrant is not a winner of any prize, even if the game play should so indicate, unless and until entrant’s eligibility and the potential winning game play have been verified and entrant has been notified that verification is complete. Sponsor will not accept screen shots, text message or other evidence of winning in lieu of its validation process. Any game play that occurs after the system has failed for any reason is deemed a defective play, is void, and will not be honored.
