sweepstakes entry

Prize drawing ticket

A sweepstakes entry is a submission to a promotional contest where winners are selected by chance rather than skill.

Typically involves providing contact information on a form, card, or online submission: Fill out this sweepstakes entry for a chance to win a new car.

The phrase often appears in fine print specifying rules and deadlines.
