Questions about the Sweepstakes

No. We don't like spam any more than you do, but we might need to send you updates from time to time about Decapix.com... Especially if you win a Sweepstakes! Our Privacy Policy has all of the details what we do with any information we collect. Please check it out!

All Decapix Sweepstakes operate on a revolving principle, as outlined in the Decapix Official Rules and Terms of Service.  Here it is in a nutshell:

  • All Decapix Sweepstakes are open-ended.  They are funded by advertising, so we don't plan on ending a Sweepstakes until it is fiscally responsible to do so.
  • Once a Sweepstakes has ended, Decapix may choose to renew the Sweepstakes to allow for a new winner.  All previous entries will be included in the now-renewed Sweepstakes except, of course, for previous winners of the same Sweepstakes.

When it is time for a Sweepstakes winner to be selected, one entry is selected at random from among all valid entries for that Sweepstakes.

A Valid entry is an entry which contains valid contact information, and meets qualifications as outlined in the Decapix Official Rules and Terms of Service. 

All Sweepstakes on Decapix.com can be entered once a day per person, per Sweepstakes. In other words, if there are five Sweepstakes active, then you can enter all five of them one time each day.

Questions from Advertisers

An ad subscription will only appear on one Sweepstakes page.  You can, of course, create an identicle ad subscription for another Sweepstakes, if you want.  This has several advantages:

  • It keeps your costs down.  If we offered a "super advertisment slot" that appeared on every Sweepstakes page, it would undoubtedly cost more than all but the largest companies are able to budget.
  • You can target your advertising to a specific Sweepstakes.  Customers see your advertisements before and after they enter the sweepstakes, and they can enter once a day.  That is a lot of exposure for your niche market for only a few dollars a day... Take advantage of it!

Yes. Just remember that each advertisment has to be set up individually as a different PayPal Subscription. You can create a Mini Button on one Sweepstakes, and a Skyscraper Banner on another!

Advertising on Decapix.com is easy.

  1. First, you need to create an account.
  2. Next, you need to go to the Sweepstakes page that you want to advertise on. You can see a list of all the currently active Sweepstakes here.
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and click on the "Advertise Here!" link. This will take you to where you can choose the type of ad that you want to create.
  4. Select the size of the banner ad that you plan to upload. Different sizes are different prices, so choose whatever matches your advertising budget. (Note: Only a limited number of banner spaces are available for each banner size. Once the limit has been reached, that size will no longer appear in the list.)
  5. On the Ad Creation page, you can upload a picture to be used for your ad. Your picture will be automatically re-sized to fit into the available space, so make sure you make the most of your picture dimensions!
  6. After you create your ad, you can then activate it by setting up a PayPal™ "Subscription" from your account page.  This will "publish" your advertisement on the Sweepstakes page for as long as your Subscription is active. Please note: You only enter financial information on PayPal's website.  Decapix.com never sees any of your financial information.  PayPal tells us when you have set up the subscription, and when you cancel it.
  7. That's it!  The system is automated, so that once you set up your PayPal Subscription, we will start showing your ad on the Sweepstakes page.  If you choose to cancel your Subscription, then your ad will automatically be removed from the Sweepstakes page.
