FootballMania Game Card Details
An exciting game based on professional football!
FootballMania is an exciting sweepstakes fundraiser based on professional football. All sweepstakes game cards have an equal chance to win prize money based on the performance of the random football teams printed on the back. Game cards contain 3 random teams in each of the last 5 weeks of the pro football season (you get 3 new teams each week). To play the game, participants simply add up the points scored by their 3 teams. Every week, the 65 highest scoring game cards and the 5 lowest scoring game cards all win prizes. In addition, two grand prizes are awarded at the end of the season. There are 4,960 unique game cards, each of which has a minimum 1 in 14.5 chance to win a prize during the season. View detailed prize money amounts below.
FootballMania Fundraiser Profit and Costs
Profit
Determining your profit with FootballMania is easy. To raise money, you sell CharityMania Tickets for $10 and keep 65% of the money you collect. Ticket holders receive $10 worth of premium digital music downloads (read why the music is important for this fundraiser), and they are entered into the FootballMania sweepstakes. Sell 10 tickets or 10,000 tickets… you make $6.50 on every ticket. It is really that simple.
Costs
You determine how many CharityMania Tickets you need and then purchase them from us for 19¢ per ticket (to cover the printing costs) plus shipping and a $10 handling fee per order. You then sell each CharityMania Ticket for $10. With each sale you pay $3.50 to CharityMania to cover the costs of the music downloads, the management of the sweepstakes, and any prize money your game cards may win. The remaining $6.50 is your profit! Sell 10 tickets or 10,000 tickets… you pay $3.50 for only those tickets you sell. View our Financial Flowchart for more details about how and when payments are made during the fundraiser.
FootballMania Winners and Prize Money
How the prize money works
Sweepstakes participants can win $1,000s in cash prizes based on the number of points scored by the football teams printed on the backs of their Sweepstakes Game Cards. Each week CharityMania calculates the winning game cards. We then send you the prize money so that you can send it to the winners with a personalized letter thanking them for their support. Every week, the 65 highest scoring game cards, and the 5 lowest scoring game cards all win prizes… a new chance in each of the 5 weeks of the sweepstakes! There are 4,960 unique game cards, each of which has a minimum 1 in 14.5 chance to win a prize during the season.
Guaranteed Winners Program
If your organization wants more winners, we also offer an optional Guaranteed Winners Program that will award a prize to your organization’s highest scoring card each week.
