- Favorite a Weedmaps Retailer or Delivery Operator Listing: Once the Consumer Entrant is logged into his/her/their Weedmaps Account, the Consumer Entrants may receive an entry by favoriting a Weedmaps retailer or delivery operator listing on Weedmaps.com or via the Weedmaps app. To ‘favorite’ a listing, visit a retailer or delivery operator listing page and click on the heart that appears on the page. By clicking the heart, the heart will turn red and the Consumer Entrant will automatically earn an entry into the Sweepstakes.
- Claim a Weedmaps Retailer or Delivery Operator Listing Deal: Once the Consumer Entrant is logged into his/her/their Weedmaps Account, the Consumer Entrants may receive an entry by claiming a deal from a Weedmaps retailer or delivery operator. If a retailer or delivery operator has a live deal, it will appear under the deals section of its listing on Weedmaps.com or on the Weedmaps mobile application or on the “Deals” page on Weedmaps.com or on the Weedmaps mobile application. Click on the deal, and press “Claim and shop deal”, “Claim and shop top pick”, “Copy code and shop deal”, or “Copy code and shop top pick”.

Each Qualifying Action a Consumer Entrant takes from the list above to earn an entry on Weedmaps must be unique (e.g., a Consumer Entrant cannot favorite a retailer or delivery operator listing during the first Daily Entry Period, unfavorite that same retailer or delivery operator listing during the second Daily Entry Period and re-favorite that retailer or delivery operator listing during the second Daily Entry Period to earn a new entry for the second Daily Entry Period).
(ii) Business Entrants How to Enter Description: For Business Entrants, there are two (2) different ways to earn an entry in the Sweepstakes drawing, as follows:
- Automatic Entries Earned Through Consumer Entrant Actions Listed Above: Business Entrants will automatically earn (1) entry into the Sweepstakes drawing for each Qualifying Action taken by a Consumer Entrant that occurs on or in connection with the Business Entrant’s Weedmaps listing during the Sweepstakes Period. Business Entrants that create or utilize Weedmaps Accounts (or otherwise take any action) in order to try and create inauthentic Qualifying Actions on Weedmaps.com or the Weedmaps mobile application to increase their entries (as determined by Sponsor) may be disqualified in Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion.

There is no limit to the number of entries Business Entrants can earn in this Sweepstakes (regardless of method).
Subsequent attempts made by the same individual to submit multiple entries by using multiple or false contact information, accounts or otherwise may result in the entrant being disqualified. Entries generated by a script, computer programs, macro, AI, programmed, robotic, or other automated means are void and may be disqualified. Entries that are in excess of the stated limits, incomplete, illegible, corrupted, damaged, destroyed, forged, false, lost, late or misdirected, deceptive or otherwise not in compliance with the Official Rules may be disqualified from the Sweepstakes at Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion. Entries submitted by entrants who do not meet the eligibility requirements (including all requirements with respect to age and residence) are void. All materials submitted become the physical property of Sponsor and will not be returned. In the event of a dispute over the identity of an online entrant, entry will be deemed submitted by the registered account holder of the email address associated with the entry. Winners may be required to show proof of being the registered account holder. Registered account holder is defined as the person assigned to an email address by an Internet access provider, on-line service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses. In the event a dispute regarding the identity of the individual who actually submitted an entry cannot be resolved to Sponsor’s satisfaction, the affected entry will be deemed ineligible. The Sponsor’s designated database clock will be the official timekeeper for this Sweepstakes. Those who do not follow all of the instructions, provide the required information in their entry form, or abide by these Official Rules or other instructions of Sponsor may be disqualified. The Sweepstakes Entities may run multiple campaigns, contests, sweepstakes, or other promotions simultaneously. Entry into one (1) campaign, contest or sweepstakes does not constitute entry into any other.
- Selection of Winners and Prize Claiming. For Consumer Entrants, there will be a total of twenty (20) Daily Entry Period winners (one (1) winner for each Daily Entry Period) (each, a “Daily Entry Period Winner”) and one (1) grand prize winner (a “Grand Prize Winner”) selected in this Sweepstakes. For Business Entrants, there will be one (1) Grand Prize Winner selected in this Sweepstakes. Each Daily Entry Period Winner will be selected through a random drawing from among all individuals who entered for the applicable Daily Entry Period and will be determined at 9:00 a.m. PT on the business day following the conclusion of the prior Daily Entry Period(s). The Consumer Entrant Grand Prize Winner will be selected through a random drawing on or about April 21, 2026 from all eligible Consumer Entrant entries received during the Grand Prize Period in accordance with these Official Rules. The Business Entrant Grand Prize Winner will be selected through a random drawing on or about April 23, 2026 from all eligible Business Entrant entries received during the Grand Prize Period in accordance with these Official Rules.

The Sweepstakes Entities are not responsible for false, incorrect, changed, incomplete, or illegible contact information. Notification is deemed to have occurred immediately upon sending of an email or placing of a phone call, one (1) day after sending via a delivery operator or two (2) days after mailing. A potential prize winner who provides a P.O. Box may be required to provide an alternative address and this may cause a delay in notification and acceptance so use of a P.O. Box is discouraged. The Sweepstakes Entities are not responsible for electronic communications that are undeliverable as a result of any form of active or passive filtering of any kind, or insufficient space in entrant’s email account to receive email messages. For the Business Entrants, the Grand Prize will be awarded to the legal business entity through which the retailer or delivery operator operates and the owner or principal of such entity may determine and select which individuals shall have a right to utilize the Grand Prize provided such owner or principal must notify Sponsor of the names and contact information of such individuals (and such individuals will be required to execute an Affidavit prior to prize award).
Each potential winner will be required to submit an affidavit of eligibility, release of liability, and/or prize acceptance agreement (collectively, the “Affidavit”) and return the Affidavit within forty-eight (48) hours of being notified that they have been selected as a winner to receive prize(s). If any potential prize winner fails or refuses to sign and return such Affidavit within such time period or if the prize or prize notification is returned as rejected, faulty, unclaimed, or returned as undeliverable to such potential prize winner, such potential prize winner may be disqualified and an alternate may be selected. Non-compliance shall result in disqualification and award of the prize(s) to an alternate winner. If any potential prize winner is found to be ineligible, or if the potential prize winner has not complied with these Official Rules, or if the potential prize winner cannot attend or participate in any portion of the prize, or declines a prize for any reason prior to award, such potential winner may be disqualified and an alternate potential winner may be selected. If, for any reason, more bona fide winners come forward seeking to claim prizes in excess of the number of each type of prize set forth in these Official Rules, the winners, or remaining winners, as the case may be, of the advertised number of prizes available may be selected in a random drawing from among all persons making purportedly valid claims for such prize(s). Inclusion in such drawing shall be each entrant’s sole and exclusive remedy under such circumstances. The Sweepstakes Entities are not responsible for and shall not be liable for late, lost, damaged, intercepted, misdirected, or unsuccessful efforts to notify the potential winners.
