A Fast and Easy Way To Enter PCH Sweepstakes

Publishers Clearing House (PCH) is a direct-to-consumer company that sells merchandise and magazines, but it’s most famous for sweepstakes. As the company offers numerous cash giveaways, it has raised doubts that it may be a scam or that it doesn’t select prize winners, but its sweepstakes are legitimate.

We will dissect PCH sweepstakes and show you how to participate in the fastest and safest way.

What Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes Can I Enter?

You can find many raffle-like games on the PCH sweepstakes page—slots, quizzes, scratch-offs, and more. There are also wins and the following sweepstake categories:

  • Lifestyle
  • Million-dollar
  • Cash is king
  • Financial freedom
  • Pet sweeps
  • Grocery & food
  • Travel & vacation
  • Makeover
  • Win for life
  • Dream home
  • Car & truck
  • Sweeps games

Some categories can be deceiving. For example, the dream home prize is cash. You can use it to purchase a home, but you won’t get an actual house.

PCH organizes sweepstakes throughout the year. As soon as a game ends, the same or a similar one begins immediately. If you miss an end date, you can always enter another sweepstake.

We listed some popular PCH sweepstakes in the following table:
