Welcome to our promotional raffle website ("Website"). By accessing or using our Website, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our Website. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (the "User" or "you") and OneDollarShop (the "Company," "we," or "us").
THE ACTIVITIES OFFERED ON THIS WEBSITE ARE PROMOTIONAL RAFFLES AND NOT GAMBLING. These activities meet the legal requirements to be exempt from gambling regulations under federal law and the laws of most states because: (1) we offer a 100% free method of entry that requires no purchase, payment, or other consideration; (2) the free entry method provides exactly the same chance of winning as the paid method; and (3) the free entry method is clearly and prominently disclosed to all Users. No purchase or payment is necessary to enter or win. A purchase or payment will not increase your chances of winning.
These promotional raffles are structured as legally compliant "Prize Promotions" or "Sweepstakes" with an Alternative Method of Entry ("AMOE") as recognized under United States law. They are explicitly not "lotteries" or "gambling" as defined by federal and state laws, as they do not require consideration (mandatory payment) to participate.
Our Website is open to individuals who are at least 18 years of age or the age of majority in their jurisdiction, whichever is greater. By using our Website, you represent and warrant that you meet these eligibility requirements. The Company reserves the right to request proof of age and eligibility at any time.
Our promotions are void where prohibited by law, including but not limited to jurisdictions that do not recognize free alternative methods of entry as removing an activity from gambling regulation. It is your responsibility to determine whether participation is lawful in your jurisdiction. Employees of the Company, their immediate family members (spouse, parents, siblings, and children), and anyone living in the same household as employees are not eligible to participate.
The Company reserves the right to verify eligibility and to adjudicate any dispute about eligibility for the promotion in its sole discretion. If you are entering as part of your job or on behalf of your employer, these rules are binding on both you and your employer.
Our Website offers promotional raffles where Users can win items displayed on the Website. Each item has a specified value and an expiration date for its promotional period. Users can participate in these promotions through two distinct methods of entry, as described in Section 5. Each promotional raffle will have its own specific end date and time ("Promotion Period"), displayed prominently on the item's page.
For each item, we will display:
a) A description of the item
b) The market value of the item as determined by the Company
c) The end date and time of the Promotion Period
Method 1 - Token Entry: Users may purchase tokens at the rate of one (1) US dollar per token through our secure payment system. These tokens can be used to enter any active promotion on the Website. Each token represents one entry for a specific item's promotional raffle. Users may allocate their tokens to any active promotions of their choosing. Token purchases are final and non-refundable under any circumstances. The purchase of tokens does not guarantee winning any prize.
Method 2 - Free Essay Entry (Alternative Method of Entry): As an alternative to purchasing tokens, Users may enter ANY promotion WITHOUT PURCHASE by submitting a 1,000-word original essay through our contact page, explaining why they should be eligible to win the specific item they are interested in. Each eligible essay submission counts as one entry, equivalent to one token. Multiple essay submissions are permitted, with each valid essay counting as one entry, just as each token counts as one entry. All free entries have EXACTLY THE SAME CHANCE of winning as paid entries.
Each essay must:
a) Be the original work of the entrant
b) Not have been previously published
c) Be at least 1,000 words in length
d) Clearly identify the specific item the User wishes to win
e) Be submitted via the contact form on our Website before the expiration date of the relevant promotion
f) Not contain content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, or otherwise objectionable
The Company evaluates all essays solely to ensure they meet these criteria. The content or quality of the essay does not affect the chance of winning, provided it meets the basic requirements. The Company reserves the right to disqualify essays that do not meet these requirements or appear to be plagiarized.
Both entry methods provide equal opportunities to win. The random selection process treats all valid entries equally, regardless of whether they were obtained through token purchase or essay submission.
In compliance with legal definitions that distinguish gambling from legitimate promotional activities, our Website does not require "consideration" (payment or substantial expenditure) to enter or win any prize. While we offer a token purchase option for convenience, the free essay method of entry ensures that no purchase or payment is ever necessary to enter or win. The free method of entry requires only a reasonable effort (writing an essay) that courts have consistently held does not constitute "consideration" under gambling laws.
The availability of this free alternative method of entry is made clear and conspicuous throughout the Website. No preference is given in the winner selection process to participants who choose the paid entry method over the free entry method.
Each promotional raffle will only be conducted if the total number of entries (combined from both token purchases and essay submissions) equals or exceeds the market value of the item as determined by the Company and displayed on the Website. For example, if an item's listed market value is $500, at least 500 total entries (through any combination of tokens and essays) must be received before the expiration date for the raffle to be conducted.
If insufficient entries are received by the expiration date, no winner will be selected, and the promotion for that item will be void. In such cases:
a) No refunds will be provided for tokens used to enter an unsuccessful promotion
b) Users who submitted essays for an unsuccessful promotion will be notified that no winner was selected
c) The item will be removed from the active promotions section
The Company reserves the right to:
a) Extend any promotion at its sole discretion before the original expiration date
b) Discontinue any promotion at any time due to technical issues, legal concerns, or other business reasons
c) Modify the market value of an item before the promotion begins, but not after it has started
For each successful promotion that meets the threshold requirement, one (1) winner will be selected through a random drawing conducted using a computer-generated random selection algorithm. This selection process is designed to ensure that each entry has an equal and fair chance of winning, regardless of the method of entry used.
The drawing will be conducted within one (1) business days after the promotion's expiration date. The odds of winning depend solely on the number of eligible entries received for that specific promotion. For example, if there are 500 total entries, each entry has a 1 in 500 chance of winning.
To ensure transparency and fairness:
a) Each valid entry is assigned a unique identifier in our system
b) The random selection process uses an industry-standard pseudorandom number generator
c) The selection process is automated and not subject to human intervention or bias
d) The Company maintains records of all entries and the selection process for at least 90 days after each promotion ends
Winners will be notified via the email address associated with their account within seven (7) days of the drawing. This notification will include:
a) Confirmation of the specific item won
b) Instructions for claiming the prize
c) A request for shipping information and any other details necessary for prize fulfillment
d) The deadline for responding to claim the prize
Winners must respond within fourteen (14) days of notification and provide their delivery information and any other requested details necessary for prize fulfillment. The Company may attempt additional notifications if the initial notification receives no response, but is not obligated to do so.
If a winner fails to respond within the specified timeframe, provides incomplete or inaccurate information, or is determined to be ineligible, the prize may be forfeited, and an alternate winner may be selected using the same random selection process from among the remaining eligible entries. The Company is not responsible for any communications that are misdirected, lost in transmission, or otherwise undelivered.
Winners may be required to complete, sign, and return an affidavit of eligibility, liability release, and publicity release (where legal) within the time period specified in the winner notification. Failure to return these documents in a timely manner may result in prize forfeiture and the selection of an alternate winner.
All prizes will be delivered to the winner's provided address within fourteen (14) days after receiving the winner's complete delivery information, unless otherwise specified. For certain items, longer delivery times may apply, which will be clearly disclosed in the item description.
The Company is not responsible for prizes lost, damaged, or delayed in transit. Risk of loss transfers to the winner upon the Company's delivery of the prize to the shipping carrier. The Company reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal or greater value if the advertised prize becomes unavailable due to circumstances beyond the Company's control.
Winners are responsible for all taxes, duties, and fees associated with prize receipt and/or use. For prizes valued at $600 or more, winners may be required to provide a valid Social Security Number or Tax ID for tax reporting purposes and will receive an IRS Form 1099 reflecting the prize value.
Prizes are non-transferable, non-exchangeable, and cannot be redeemed for cash or credit. No prize substitution is permitted except at the Company's discretion. The depiction of prizes in promotional materials is for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect the exact item awarded.
To participate in our promotions, Users must provide their accurate and complete email address that they have acceess to as all communactions will happen through this email address. The Website does not very email addresses and is not responsible for any complications or failed communactions if a customer provides an incorrect email address.
Token purchases are processed through our secure payment system. By purchasing tokens, you authorize us to charge your selected payment method. All token purchases are final and non-refundable. Tokens have no cash value and cannot be transferred, sold, or exchanged.
The Company reserves the right to:
a) Limit the number of tokens that can be purchased by a single User
b) Modify token pricing with advance notice for future purchases (not affecting already purchased tokens)
c) Suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms
d) Investigate and take appropriate legal action against anyone who, in the Company's sole discretion, violates these Terms
Users agree not to engage in any conduct that may disrupt or interfere with the operation of the Website or the experience of other Users. Prohibited conduct includes, but is not limited to:
a) Attempting to circumvent the Website's systems, processes, or entry methods
b) Using automated systems, bots, scripts, software, or processes to enter promotions
c) Submitting false, misleading, or plagiarized information
d) Creating multiple accounts to exceed entry limits or gain unfair advantages

f) Harassing, threatening, or abusing the Company's staff or other Users

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY, ITS PARENT, AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, AND LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY, THE "COMPANY PARTIES") SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM: (A) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE WEBSITE; (B) ANY CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE WEBSITE; (C) ANY CONTENT OBTAINED FROM THE WEBSITE; AND (D) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE, OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER OR NOT THE COMPANY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

The promotions offered on this Website are designed to comply with United States federal law and the laws of most states by offering a free alternative method of entry that removes the element of "consideration" required for an activity to be classified as gambling or a lottery. However, laws vary by jurisdiction, and it is the User's responsibility to ensure that their participation complies with all local laws.
The Company makes the following representations regarding the legal nature of its operations:

b) The free alternative method of entry (essay submission) is prominently disclosed and provides exactly the same chance of winning as the paid method
c) Winners are selected through a random process where each entry has an equal chance of winning
d) The Company does not profit from "losses" as in gambling operations, but rather from the difference between token sales and prize costs in successful promotions
Prize winners are responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes associated with prize receipt. For prizes valued at $600 or more, winners must provide a valid Social Security Number or Tax ID for tax reporting purposes. The Company will issue an IRS Form 1099-MISC for prizes valued at $600 or more. The value of prizes is not negotiable and may not be transferred except with the Company's written consent.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
You and the Company agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Website (collectively, "Disputes") will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.
The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under its then-current rules and procedures, as modified by these Terms. The arbitration shall take place at a location agreed upon by the parties. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through document submission, or through video conference. The arbitrator will have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court could order or grant under these Terms, including specific performance of any obligation under these Terms, the issuance of an injunction, or the imposition of sanctions for abuse or frustration of the arbitration process.
YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and the Company agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
This agreement to arbitrate shall survive termination of these Terms.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to its conflict of law principles. For any proceedings not subject to arbitration, you and the Company agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Clark County, Nevada. Any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of the Website or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, regardless of any statute or law to the contrary. Any claim not filed within the foregoing one-year period shall be permanently barred.
The Company reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time without prior notice. Updated versions of the Terms will be posted on the Website and are effective immediately upon posting. The "Last Updated" date at the top of these Terms will be revised to reflect the date of the most recent changes. Your continued use of the Website after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you must stop using the Website.
The Company will make reasonable efforts to notify Users of material changes to these Terms by posting a notice on the Website or sending an email to the email address associated with User accounts. However, you are responsible for regularly checking these Terms for changes. Material changes to these Terms will not apply retroactively and will become effective no sooner than fourteen (14) days after they are posted, except for changes addressing new functions of the Website or changes made for legal reasons, which will be effective immediately.
The Company reserves the right to terminate or suspend your account and access to the Website, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including, without limitation, if the Company believes you have violated these Terms.
Upon termination:
a) Your right to access and use the Website will immediately cease
b) Any unused tokens in your account may be forfeited without refund
c) Any pending entries in active promotions will remain valid unless your account was terminated for fraud or abuse
d) You may still be eligible to receive prizes for promotions you entered prior to termination, unless your account was terminated for fraud or abuse
All provisions of these Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnification, and limitations of liability.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect, and the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be deemed modified so as to be valid, legal, and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
The failure of the Company to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Company.
The Company offers an affiliate program ("Affiliate Program") that allows approved individuals ("Affiliates" or "Promoters") to promote the Website and earn promotional entries. This section outlines the terms and conditions governing participation in the Affiliate Program.
AFFILIATES ARE INDEPENDENT THIRD PARTIES AND NOT EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, AGENTS, JOINT VENTURERS, OR REPRESENTATIVES OF THE COMPANY. Affiliates have no authority to bind the Company to any obligation or create any liability on behalf of the Company. The Company does not control the actions of Affiliates and is not responsible or liable for any representations, statements, or content published or distributed by Affiliates.
The relationship between the Company and Affiliates is solely that of independent contractors. Nothing in these Terms creates an employment relationship, partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between the Company and any Affiliate. Affiliates are responsible for their own taxes, expenses, and legal compliance and are not entitled to any employee benefits from the Company.
Individuals interested in becoming Affiliates must submit an application through the contact page on the Website. The application must include:
a) Complete and accurate personal information
b) Links to all social media accounts the applicant intends to use for promotional activities
c) A brief description of intended promotional strategies
d) Agreement to these Terms and any additional Affiliate Program terms
The Company reserves the absolute right to approve or reject any application in its sole discretion. The Company may consider factors including, but not limited to, the applicant's social media presence, content quality, audience demographics, and alignment with the Company's values and brand image. The Company is not obligated to provide reasons for application rejections.
Approved Affiliates will receive a unique affiliate link ("Affiliate Link") that must be used for all promotional activities. The Company reserves the right to revoke Affiliate status at any time for any reason, with or without notice.
Affiliates earn promotional entries as follows:
When a new user ("Referred User") uses an Affiliate's unique link to purchase tokens on the Website, the Affiliate automatically receives an equivalent number of entries for the same items. For example, if a Referred User purchases 3 tokens for Item A and 2 tokens for Item B, the Affiliate will receive 3 entries for Item A and 2 entries for Item B.
These entries are subject to the same terms and conditions as all other entries, including:
a) Entries are only valid if the promotion meets the minimum threshold requirements
b) Entries provide the same chance of winning as entries obtained through direct token purchases or essay submissions
c) Entries are non-transferable and have no cash value
The Company reserves the right to modify the reward structure at any time with notice to Affiliates. Any changes will apply only to future referrals and not retroactively.
The Company will track referrals through the Affiliate Links using cookies and other tracking technologies. To be attributed to an Affiliate, a Referred User must:
a) Click directly on the Affiliate's unique link
b) Have cookies enabled in their browser
c) Complete their token purchase during the same browsing session or within 26 days of clicking the Affiliate Link
d) Not have previously visited the Website through another Affiliate's link
The Company's tracking system shall be the sole determinant of whether a referral is properly attributed to an Affiliate. The Company is not responsible for tracking failures due to ad blockers, cookie deletions, or other technical issues beyond its reasonable control.
Affiliates will be notified via email of any and all earned entries. The Company reserves the right to withhold entries or terminate Affiliate status if it suspects fraudulent activity, including but not limited to self-referrals or manipulating the tracking system.
Affiliates must comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards, including but not limited to advertising laws, data protection laws, and consumer protection laws. Affiliates are solely responsible for ensuring their promotional activities comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
Affiliates are PROHIBITED from:
a) Making false, misleading, or exaggerated claims about the Website, promotions, or chances of winning
b) Using deceptive practices to generate referrals, including cookie stuffing, forced clicks, or fraudulent transactions
c) Promoting the Website in any manner that could be construed as gambling or lottery advertising where prohibited
d) Using the Company's name, logo, or trademarks in any way that implies endorsement or partnership beyond the Affiliate relationship
e) Engaging in spamming, unsolicited communications, or aggressive marketing tactics
f) Targeting individuals under the age of 18 or the age of majority in their jurisdiction
g) Creating or operating websites, accounts, or content that could be confused with official Company properties
h) Using paid search marketing that targets the Company's brand names, trademarks, or misspellings thereof
i) Representing themselves as employees or official representatives of the Company
Affiliates MUST:
a) Clearly disclose their Affiliate relationship with the Company in all promotional materials in accordance with applicable laws, including the Federal Trade Commission's Endorsement Guidelines
b) Maintain accurate and up-to-date information in their Affiliate account
c) Comply with all social media platforms' terms of service when promoting the Website
d) Respect the intellectual property rights of the Company and third parties
e) Maintain the confidentiality of any non-public information provided by the Company
Affiliates must include the following disclosures in a clear and conspicuous manner in all promotional materials:
a) A disclosure of their Affiliate relationship with the Company (e.g., "I earn promotional entries when you use my link")
b) A statement that no purchase is necessary to enter or win and that a free alternative method of entry is available
c) A link to the full Terms and Conditions of the Website
Additionally, Affiliates must include the following disclaimer in all promotional materials:
"I am an independent affiliate promoter and not an employee or representative of One Dollar Shop. My opinions and statements are my own and do not reflect the views of One Dollar Shop. The promotional raffles offered require no purchase to enter or win. See website for full terms and official rules."
Failure to include these required disclosures and disclaimers may result in immediate termination from the Affiliate Program and potential legal liability for the Affiliate.
Affiliates retain ownership of original content they create to promote the Website. However, by participating in the Affiliate Program, Affiliates grant the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, reproduce, distribute, display, and create derivative works from such content for promotional and marketing purposes.
The Company may provide Affiliates with marketing materials, images, or text for use in promotional activities. These materials remain the property of the Company and are licensed to Affiliates on a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable basis solely for the purpose of promoting the Website through the Affiliate Program.
Either party may terminate the Affiliate relationship at any time, with or without cause, by providing written notice to the other party. The Company reserves the right to terminate an Affiliate's participation immediately without notice if the Affiliate violates these Terms or engages in any conduct that the Company, in its sole discretion, determines to be harmful to its business or reputation.
Upon termination:
a) The Affiliate must immediately cease all promotional activities related to the Website
b) The Affiliate must remove all Company materials from their websites and social media accounts
c) The Affiliate's unique link will be deactivated
d) The Affiliate will retain any entries earned prior to termination, unless termination was due to fraudulent activity
e) The Affiliate will forfeit any pending entries that have not yet been credited to their account
Sections relating to confidentiality, intellectual property, liability limitations, indemnification, and dispute resolution shall survive termination of the Affiliate relationship.
Affiliates agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and representatives from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or related to:
a) The Affiliate's promotional activities and content
b) The Affiliate's breach of these Terms or any applicable laws or regulations
c) Any misrepresentation or unauthorized commitment made by the Affiliate
d) Any claim that the Affiliate's content infringes upon the intellectual property rights of any third party
THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF AFFILIATES. AFFILIATES PROMOTE THE WEBSITE FULLY AT THEIR OWN RESPONSIBILITY, RISK, AND DISCRETION. THE ACTIONS OF AFFILIATES IN NO WAY REFLECT THE COMPANY AND CREATE NO LIABILITY FOR THE COMPANY. AFFILIATES ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITIES AND COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS.
The Company reserves the right to monitor Affiliate activities and content. However, the Company is not obligated to review or approve Affiliate content and does not assume any responsibility for ensuring that Affiliate content complies with these Terms or applicable laws.
The Company reserves the right to modify any aspect of the Affiliate Program at any time, including but not limited to the reward structure, eligibility requirements, tracking methods, and these Terms. The Company will provide notice of material changes to Affiliates via email. Continued participation in the Affiliate Program after such changes constitutes acceptance of the modified terms.
The Company may suspend or discontinue the Affiliate Program at any time without liability to Affiliates. In the event of program discontinuation, Affiliates will retain any entries earned prior to the discontinuation date.
Affiliates are responsible for all tax implications resulting from their participation in the Affiliate Program. The Company does not provide tax advice and recommends that Affiliates consult with a tax professional regarding any potential tax obligations. The Company will not issue tax forms to Affiliates as the reward structure involves promotional entries with no cash value rather than monetary compensation.
This Affiliate Program is non-exclusive. The Company may work with other Affiliates who may promote similar or competing products or services, and Affiliates may promote other companies' products or services, provided such activities do not violate these Terms.
These Terms, together with any additional Affiliate Program terms provided by the Company, constitute the entire agreement between the Company and Affiliates with respect to the Affiliate Program and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications regarding the Affiliate Program.
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices published by the Company on the Website, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company concerning the Website and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, whether electronic, oral, or written, between you and the Company regarding the Website.
These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without the prior written consent of the Company. The Company may assign these Terms without restriction and without notice to you.
The Company will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, civil unrest, embargoes, laws or regulations, strikes or other labor problems, Internet service provider failures or delays, or the unavailability or operation of computer hardware, software, or the Internet.
