Evidence hierarchy
For claims about an operator, we prioritise the operator’s official terms, sweepstakes rules, payments documentation and help pages. Legal and jurisdictional matters additionally require current regulator information, where available. Secondary reporting may provide context but cannot override clear primary terms.
Facts, analysis and recommendations
- Fact: attributed claims about a product or policy, tied to a named source.
- Analysis: our explanation of the practical implications and limitations.
- Commercial recommendation: clearly separated from the evidence and disclosed if monetised.
How we treat changing information
Rewards, geographic permissions, payment methods and platform features can change. We do not add “updated today” dates unless a substantive verification occurred. The source documents have precedence over unsourced summaries.
When official sources disagree
Shuffle.us currently has a meaningful inconsistency between its restricted-states help article and official sweepstakes rules. We do not resolve this by publishing a definitive list of eligible states. Readers should check the latest governing terms and obtain clarification directly from the operator.
Corrections and attribution
We aim to amend factual errors and retain source proximity. This publication does not currently provide a direct editorial contact channel. See the contact page for the current status.
