Whatnot added a new sweepstakes promotion called the Whatnot National 2026 Sweepstakes, effective July 21, 2026. The document introduces official rules governing entry into multiple separate prize drawings conducted during a single livestream event on August 1, 2026, with eligibility restricted to legal residents of the 48 contiguous United States and DC who are 18 years or older. The sweepstakes offers prizes including a 1987 Porsche 911 (or $80,000 cash alternative) and establishes entry procedures, eligibility restrictions, prize acceptance terms, and liability disclaimers.
The updated terms introduce a limited-time sweepstakes promotion available to eligible US residents who can enter free during a specific livestream event on August 1, 2026. Participation requires using the Whatnot App during the livestream period; multiple separate drawings are conducted within the same event, each with independent entry windows. Entrants agree to accept Sponsor decisions as final and binding, and winners must accept prizes under specific conditions, including acceptance of used vehicles without warranty and responsibility for associated costs.
