The New Design Editor for Sweepstakes

We have launched the new Design Editor for Sweepstakes, Viral Sweepstakes, Trivia Sweepstakes, Viral Trivia Sweepstakes, Instant Win Sweepstakes and Signup Forms. Using this new feature, you can change all of the campaign settings within the editor in a user friendly approach.

Note: We here at Votigo are constantly trying to improve our templates, and, as such, these overviews are subject to change. The classic template is depreciated and it is no longer available to create new Sweepstakes and sign up forms, but the existing Sweeps and sign up forms created on classic template will work as it is.
