Turn a spin into a verified mobile opt-in

Whisp Sweepstakes replace traditional entry forms with interactive experiences like spin-to-win wheels that capture mobile opt-ins instantly. Customers simply tap to play, send a quick message to confirm their entry, and the promotion begins — creating a verified mobile connection with the brand in the process.

The Problem With Traditional Sweepstakes

Most sweepstakes rely on entry forms that interrupt the experience and cause customers to drop off before completing the process. Even when customers finish the form, brands often collect incomplete or unreliable data and may still lack the verified mobile identity needed to activate participants through messaging.

The Whisp Sweepstakes Experience

Whisp transforms promotions into simple interactive experiences that customers enjoy participating in.

Customers tap a Smart Button to start the promotion, triggering an interactive element such as a spin-to-win wheel. When the customer presses send to confirm their entry, Whisp captures the verified mobile opt-in and records compliant consent instantly.

The result is a seamless experience where participation and opt-in happen together.
