Giveaways in New York

Almost every sweepstakes listed here is open nationwide, so a New York resident can enter the same promotions as anyone else. What genuinely differs by state is the law behind large prizes, and whether New York is holding money that belongs to you.

Sweepstakes law in New York

New York requires registration and bonding with the Department of State when total prize value exceeds $5,000. This is why some national promotions exclude New York outright, and why the ones that do not tend to be run by companies with real legal support behind them.

Unclaimed money held by New York

New York holds unclaimed property through the Office of the State Comptroller, and roughly one in seven Americans has something sitting in a state database: a forgotten deposit, an uncashed final paycheck, an old insurance refund. Searching is free and takes a minute. No legitimate service needs to be paid to do it for you, and anyone charging a percentage to "recover" it is charging for a public search.

Before you enter

These are paid listings, so the useful part is knowing what to check before you leave this site.

Named sponsor: A real giveaway names the company responsible for running it. If the entry page hides the sponsor or only uses a famous brand name with no company behind it, treat it as unsafe.
Official rules: The rules should state the prize, approximate retail value, entry period, eligibility, winner selection method and how odds are determined. Missing rules are the strongest reason to walk away.
Free entry: A US sweepstakes must be free to enter. No purchase necessary is a legal requirement, not a courtesy. Any fee to enter or claim a prize disqualifies the listing.
