A modern alternative
to ViralSweep.
Same compliance foundation. Better customization, broader promotion types, and simpler pricing — starting at $99/month with every feature included.
Choose ViralSweep if you need full-service prize fulfillment, state registration filing, and a managed enterprise engagement. Choose Revup if you want the same compliance-grade product (official rules, AMOE, fraud prevention, multi-language, API) with better customization, the full forms + surveys + quizzes stack, native email and SMS, and $99/month self-serve pricing — no $399 or $999 tier gate.
Revup vs ViralSweep at a glance
A direct, feature-by-feature comparison of the two platforms.
ViralSweep pricing vs Revup pricing
ViralSweep gates its best features behind Premium ($399) and Elite ($999). Revup includes every feature at every tier.
API, multi-language, advanced custom actions, and A/B testing require the $399 Premium plan or higher.
Every plan includes every feature. API, multi-language, white-label, custom CSS — all unlocked from the $99 Launch tier. Tiers scale by customer profiles and message volume.
Where Revup pulls ahead
ViralSweep is a strong sweepstakes platform. Revup is a full promotions platform — and that's a meaningfully different product.
Freedom on the landing page
Reviewers regularly flag ViralSweep's locked image ratios and restricted layouts. Revup gives you 24 themes, full CSS, typography controls, and custom domains — no workarounds.
Full form & survey builder
Revup ships a 40-field, multi-page form builder with partial submission tracking, Stripe payments, and e-signature. Use the same platform for lead-gen that you use for sweepstakes.
Email & SMS, not exports
Build automated flows triggered by entries, winner picks, referrals, or any event — native to Revup. ViralSweep pushes data to your ESP; you still own the messaging stack.
Revup Intelligence, built in
Every campaign enriches one unified profile per customer. ViralSweep data is per-campaign; Revup treats your audience as one continuous dataset across every promotion.
Quizzes as a first-class promotion
Product recommender quizzes, personality quizzes, and trivia — scored, branched, and tied back to the same profile. Not a feature in ViralSweep.
Every feature from day one
API, multi-language, white-label, advanced fraud controls — unlocked at the $99 Launch tier. With ViralSweep, you climb to $199, $399, or $999 to unlock each one.
When ViralSweep is the better pick
ViralSweep has real strengths, and we'll be honest about where they still lead:
- You need full-service managed administration — their Elite "White Glove" tier and enterprise service include a built custom promotion each month and dedicated project managers.
- You need in-house legal filing of state registration and bonding executed for you, not guidance on how to do it yourself.
- You run sweepstakes in isolation — no forms, no quizzes, no surveys, no email program — and don't want to use the additional surface area Revup provides.
If you fit those cases, ViralSweep's enterprise tier is a fine choice. If you want the product breadth and the self-serve flexibility, Revup is the fit.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions from teams evaluating the switch.
Yes. Revup gives you the same compliance backbone ViralSweep is known for — auto-generated official rules, AMOE, state registration guidance, fraud prevention — plus a modern interface, richer customization, and the full promotions stack (forms, surveys, quizzes, email, SMS, CRM) at a lower starting price.
Revup starts at $99/month with every feature unlocked. ViralSweep ranges from $49 Starter to $999 Elite, with API access, white-label, multi-language, and advanced features gated behind the $199+ Business, $399 Premium, and $999 Elite tiers.
Yes — sweepstakes, contests, instant-win games, referrals, purchase promotions, and UGC contests — plus quizzes, surveys, and a full form builder that ViralSweep doesn't include as core product areas.
Yes. One of the top reviewer complaints about ViralSweep is locked image ratios and limited landing-page customization. Revup gives you 24 themes, a full custom CSS editor, typography controls, and custom domains so your promotion looks native to your brand.
