Prizeo Review
Play Prizeo’s raffle and win that amazing experience to attend an event with your favorite TV or Sports star at the same time, support a charity.
What Is Prizeo?
Ever imagined getting to meet that celebrity from TV or sports? Prizeo.com is your opportunity to play in a raffle to win just that. Just imagine playing golf with Bill Murray, recording a voice for Charming with Avril Lavigne or attending an after show party with Lin-Manual Miranda. Prizeo is a site where players purchase raffle tickets for sharing an experience with celebrities.
Who Can Participate?
Anyone can play here, though there are some restrictions on specific ages depending on the prize. If you are over the age of 13 but under the age of 21, that might mean your parent or guardian has to attend with you. For people from outside of the US of A, it might mean you might have to top up the airfare cost to get to the event. Oh, the only down side is there doesn’t appear to be any limit to the amount of people who can participate/purchase tickets in each prize event.
What Are the Prizes Offered by Prizeo?
Most prizes include a ‘friend’ which you choose to invite to share the fun. You can do this through Facebook or email. Most prizes include airfare to an event for two (and in some cases more) and tickets to an event. In some cases, the prize can also include a sports experience, meeting a celebrity or participating with a celebrity in something and accommodation. Each prize package is unique. Depending on your buy in for raffle tickets there are other giveaways depending on the value of the tickets you purchase. Take the current Ellen DeGeneres context. If you purchase $50/500 raffle tickets, you automatically get an “Ellen” Black Crew Neck T-shirt.
Who Owns Prizeo?
Prizeo.com is based in Los Angeles, California with a snail mail address and phone number. It looks like it is run by a group that refers to themselves as the Charity Network through Join the Light Foundation. The income from each raffle/contest goes to a charity. Each celebrity gets to choose the charity. After Prizeo takes 3% off for credit card processing, 77.3% of the raffle tickets sold goes to charity with the other 19.7% for administration.
What Are the Terms & Conditions?
Players purchase raffle tickets where you get a ticket for each $0.10 you donate to the raffle. In most cases with purchases of tickets over $25, you get a giveaway. Players can purchase any amount of tickets and/or have the option of submitting a free entry form to win. Prizes must be taken on a specific date (most are for an event), are not transferable and cannot be taken in cash.
How to Collect a Prize?
Winners are determined by “Random Number Generator” software and notified by email. There will be a deadline for confirmation for you to respond. And again, remember the prize must be taken as described in the specific contest.
Prizeo Feedback and Complaints
The comments from people who have won previous are great. I thought it was hilarious that Bill Murray decided to pause in the middle of playing golf and give the winners a few golf tips on the course. How about joining Nicole Kidman and Dev Patel for a toast and a photo at the Weinstein Company Cocktail Party for the awards? Winners to date all couldn’t believe their luck and you can read about their experience on the site.
Is Prizeo.com Scam or Legit?
Not only do they post their comments, but winners have their name and pictures posted on the site. Plus, given the profile of the celebrities involved, this site is very legit.
Bottom Line at Prizeo.com
What a great way for a chance to win once in a lifetime opportunities, at the same time support specific charities. Plus there is the added value that if you purchase over $25 worth of tickets, there is a takeaway.
