Questions
How are sponsorship funds allocated?
A 15% platform fee is retained by Student Loan Sweepstakes to operate the sweepstakes, and a 3% payment processing fee covers card and bank transfer costs. The remaining 82% becomes the net prize value awarded to a participant.
For example, a $1,000 sponsorship creates a $820 cash prize.
Is there a maximum sponsorship amount?
No. The minimum is $500 and there is no maximum. Larger sponsorships can support substantially larger prizes, special campaigns, live activations, and national initiatives — reach out to our team to discuss one.
Is a sponsorship tax-deductible?
No. A prize sponsorship is a commercial marketing arrangement, not a charitable donation, and is not tax-deductible as a charitable contribution. Consult your own tax advisor about how to treat it.
Do I have to pay when I apply?
No. Applying costs nothing. Our team reviews every application within 1–2 business days, and only if approved do we email you a secure payment link.
Does sponsoring affect who wins?
No. Sponsor participation does not determine eligibility, increase a participant's odds of winning, or influence winner selection. Sweepstakes participation remains subject to the applicable Official Rules.
What files should I send with my application?
Your logo is the most useful — it's displayed alongside your prize. You can also attach campaign imagery, scripts, or creative briefs as PDFs. Anything you send other than your logo stays private to our team.
