Built Around the
Sweepstakes Model.
Krave is designed as a compliance-aware platform for sweepstakes social gaming. The architecture, workflows, and controls are built to help operators manage the structural requirements of a U.S. sweepstakes program — under their own legal guidance.
Gold Coins
Play-money currency with no cash value. Players purchase Gold Coin packages for entertainment play.
Sweeps Coins
Received free as a promotional bonus — never sold. Redeemable for prizes once platform requirements are met.
Free AMOE Entry
A mail-in Alternative Method of Entry preserves the no-purchase-necessary requirement. Sweeps Coins obtained through AMOE are treated the same as promotional Sweeps Coins.
Capabilities That Support Compliance.
These are operational tools and structural controls, not legal guarantees. Each operator configures the platform to match its own official rules, legal strategy, and approved operating model.
No-Purchase Entry (AMOE) Support
The platform includes a complete Alternative Method of Entry workflow for free mail-in requests. Intake, validation, fulfillment, and audit history are tracked alongside purchase-related entries so operators can preserve the no-purchase-necessary requirement.
Dual-Currency Architecture
Gold Coins are play-money with no cash value. Sweeps Coins are received free as a promotional bonus — never sold — and are redeemable for prizes once eligibility requirements are met. The two currencies are kept in separate ledgers with distinct grant rules and audit trails.
KYC & Redemption Review
Identity verification is required before prize redemption. Redemption requests flow through a review queue with role-based approval, so only authorized personnel can release prizes after the required checks are complete.
Geo & State Controls
Operators can configure access rules by state and geography. The platform enforces these boundaries at entry and redemption so that access aligns with the operator's approved operating model and official rules.
Responsible Play Tools
Self-imposed limits, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion options are available for players. These controls are surfaced in the player experience and recorded in the back office for support and compliance review.
Audit Logs
Every grant, purchase, redemption, review decision, configuration change, and access event is recorded in a searchable log with immutable timestamps and actor identity. Operators can export and review these records for internal and external oversight.
Official Rules Support
The platform supports operator-defined rules that govern eligibility, entry methods, promotional coin availability, redemption requirements, and responsible play. Operators configure these to match their own official rules and legal guidance.
Disclaimer
Krave provides software tools to help operators run sweepstakes programs. Each operator is responsible for its own legal compliance, official rules, and obtaining its own legal counsel. Krave does not provide legal advice, and nothing on this page should be read as a guarantee that any operator is legally compliant.
