iWon Offers More Free and Exciting Ways to Win
The iWon Prize Machine:
The "iWon Prize Machine" is a free, virtual slot machine, that awards more than
300 prizes a day. Each user starts the day with 10 spins and can earn additional spins throughout the day. Prizes include gift certificates at Amazon.com, FragranceNet, CD Universe, Ourhouse.com and eBags, among other major retailers.
Pick 7 Lotto:
Pick 7 Lotto is a virtual lottery in which one of four exciting prizes, a Mercedes
CLK, a Lexus 470, a trip around the world, or renting a tropical island is awarded
to the winner. Pick 7 can be played in four different ways, by selecting seven
numbers from one to 50, by using the Quick Pick method where a computer
selects the numbers for you, by the Saving Favorites method where you place
the numbers in once and it plays the same numbers every time you play, or by
combining methods.
Monthly Bonus Prizes:
iWon offers five new and exciting prizes each month through its Monthly Bonus
Prize program. August's prizes include a trip to Monte Carlo, a Super Home
Entertainment System, $10,000 worth of sports equipment from MYP, a romantic
Hawaiian vacation, and a $10,000 shopping spree with Flooz.
Refer a Friend:
The iWon Refer-A-Friend program is a very simple concept. Users will receive a
10% cash bonus based on the amount of any Daily, Weekly, Monthly or Annual
cash prize awarded to someone that they refer to iWon. Users also receive a 5%
cash bonus if your friend's friend wins and a 1% cash bonus if the referral process
goes to a third level. For example, if you refer your friend and he wins $1 million
then your friend receives the $1 million and you receive $100,000 as a bonus for
having told them about iWon. If your friend's friend wins $1 million, then you get
a $50,000 cash bonus and if it's a friend of a friend of a friend, then you receive
$10,000.
"Along with top search and content offerings, iWon also strives to provide its
users with more chances to win money and prizes than anyone else," said iWon
Founder and co-CEO, Jonas Steinman. "By introducing programs like the "iWon
Prize Machine" and "Pick 7" we are now on target to award more than 100,000
prizes every year - more than 300 prizes daily. As we've been saying all along -
why wouldn't you?"
