Run a Giveaway or Sweepstakes with a Branded Puzzle

By the Daily Jigsaw Team ยท Sunday, June 28, 2026

Giveaways are a proven way to spike engagement โ€” but a "like and share to win" post is forgettable. Attach the prize to a branded puzzle and entrants don't just enter; they spend real time with your brand and compete on a live leaderboard.

Why a puzzle giveaway outperforms

  • Effort earns the entry. Finishing the puzzle is the entry, so every entrant has actually engaged.
  • Competition drives replays. A leaderboard of fastest times makes people come back to climb it.
  • Sharing is natural. Players challenge friends to beat their time, expanding reach for free.
  • Leads included. Capture contact details at entry and follow up with everyone, not just the winner.

Set it up your way

You control the prize structure โ€” offer a single grand prize, or 1st / 2nd / 3rd place rewards. Add your own official rules and disclaimer that entrants agree to before they can win, set the campaign's run dates, and pick the difficulty. Winners are the fastest valid finishers on your leaderboard.

Pair this with strong lead capture, and see how it fits the bigger picture of branded-puzzle advertising.
