ELi5: Omaze, how does it work. Particularly their alternative entry without contributing.

I guess I just want to know the difference between entering a campaign, or sweepstakes or extra prizes. The rules also states donating more doesn’t make your chances of winning higher. So what’s with donating for more entries.

They mean that if you buy an entry for $1000 it’s the same weight as if you get a free entry. But if you pay $1000 and get 100 entries then you do get a higher chance.

I suspect that they “recycle” the prizes for other campaigns running at the same time. And they they run for a longer period of time to maximize the number of entries. It wouldn’t be profitable if it was just a week and they were expecting 2500 entries. Also the chances are really slim. If you read through the terms and conditions it’ll give you a lot of information about how how the program is running, how many entries they expect and other details about how they’re structuring the sweepstakes.
