How-to: Create Raffle and Sweepstakes Entry Levels

Customize entry levels to increase their appeal and encourage donations.

RallyUp provides many customization options for your Raffle or Sweepstakes entry levels to attract donors and boost donations. Each entry level lets you choose the number of chances to win (entries) you'll offer at each price point. 

This screenshot shows RallyUp's default setup, which we recommend for most cases, but you can always edit, delete, and add more as you like:

You can add merchandise and time/quantity limits to each entry level to further incentivize donors: 

You can even create Impact Levels to show donors how their donation will impact your cause:

When an entry level reaches its time or quality limit while your Raffle or Sweepstakes is still live, you can update this setting to hide it from the Experience Page. If you hide an entry level, any purchases already made will still count towards the drawing and will not be deleted.
