Odds of winning displayed or the number of entries in the sweepstakes thus far. Put in some small rewards so the odds for that are closer to 1 in 50….could be free ice cream cone at McDonald’s (which they would like because it brings people in who buy more expensive items and who are from a crowd of brand loyal folks….the seniors) or 10 cents off at Walmart….anythings other than a pitiful handful of winners with bigger prizes. A very few big prizes and a fistful of cheap prizes brings in crowds because people feel they may actually win something. You can list hundreds of winners. Replace a couple of the big prizes and use the rewards money to buy small inexpensive items….heck McDonald’s brings in bank throwing a 50 cent toy in the bag. Get a bunch of $1gift certificates as rewards. Reward them online with downloadable certificates..

 

Lastly you definitely need more pipeline, server space or both. I run 2 gig internet speed and you games lag TERRIBLY near continuously. The worst is Word Wipe which starts to boot up to where you see the option to start the game at which point it restarts again…..this happens over 90% of the time. In Rewards Majjongg the game tiles often will not respond to touch but the timer keeps running. In Let’s Crossword you have to type tediously slow due to unexpected slowing of the game i.e. I tap a key, nothing happens for 3 seconds so I tap it again and the letter suddenly appears twice destroying a winning game.

 

in games that are timed it is critical that they don’t lag. Your games are oft more frustrating than pleasurable. I keep hoping for those smooth running times but you guys are definitely there yet.

Guaranteed rewards, e-gift cards to Lowes, Home Depot, Walmart, Bath and Body Works.  I especially like when you can get 2 or 3 for the same place at the same time.

 I definitely agree with everyone who is answering "guaranteed rewards" . . . specifically e-gift card rewards to Amazon, Walmart, Home Depot, and Lowes . . . these merchant offer variety of useful items.

Guaranteed Rewards - possibly at a certain point of collection, like restaurant rewards programs;  give point redeemers a choice of 1 or 2 of the instant wins offered each week.

Honestly, either as long as the AARP Rewards site works as it should. As long as AARP takes responsibility for their content and ensures the site works, I'm happy...

I like winning $10. Daily prizes.  Sweepstakes points to enter now so many more points to enter.  Please more than 3 cash in points for $5.00 savings.
