Choice Privileges Mastercard Summer Travel Sweepstakes 2026: up to 1,000,000 points

Use an eligible Choice Privileges Mastercard purchase or the no-purchase mail-in method before September 30, 2026. Debit, international, corporate and PIN-based transactions are not automatic entries.

Choice Privileges and Wells Fargo are running a long summer sweepstakes tied to the Choice Privileges Mastercard. The headline prize is large enough to attract travel-search intent: one winner receives 1,000,000 Choice Privileges points, while separate monthly and daily drawings add many smaller chances through the same official rules.

Before entering

  • Be a legal permanent resident physically located in one of the 50 U.S. states or D.C. at the time of entry.
  • Meet the legal age of majority in the state or jurisdiction of residence.
  • Do not use debit, international, small-business, corporate, PIN-based or otherwise excluded transactions for automatic entries.
  • Keep in mind that U.S. territories, including Guam and Puerto Rico, are excluded by the official rules.

How to enter

  1. Use an eligible Choice Privileges Mastercard or Select Mastercard for a signature-based purchase during the promotion period, or prepare the official mail-in alternate entry.
  2. Submit the free entry with the required information if you are not entering through card use.
  3. Track the daily, monthly and grand-prize periods separately because the rules create independent drawings.
  4. Watch for winner contact and provide required documentation if selected.

Important details

Confirm that the card transaction is an eligible signature-based purchase, or use the alternate mail-in method if you do not want to rely on card activity.

  • The sweepstakes has daily periods, four monthly periods and one grand-prize period.
  • Each daily winner receives 50,000 points; each monthly winner receives 250,000 points.
  • The grand prize includes 1,000,000 points plus a tax-offset check, but taxes and other costs remain the winner’s responsibility.

Automatic entries are narrower than they look

The rules distinguish signature-based eligible credit-card purchases from many excluded transactions. Debit activity, corporate cards, international transactions, ATM transactions, cash advances and PIN-required transactions do not create automatic entries.

The mail-in route matters

The no-purchase route is not a courtesy note; it is the practical alternative for anyone who wants to enter without using the card. The page therefore emphasizes both routes rather than presenting the card purchase as the only path.
