Questions
How does the sweepstakes work?
You enter once per month, and your name is added to our pool. Each month, we randomly select winner(s) to receive a one-time prize payment applied toward their student loan balance.
No purchase necessary. No hidden fees. Just a fair shot at relief.
Is this actually legal?
Absolutely. We are a 501(c)(3) and operate under all applicable federal and state regulations. Our sweepstakes is registered and transparent. You can verify everything on our About Us page.
What happens if I win?
If your entry is selected, we will contact you directly to begin the verification process.
You’ll work with our team to:
• Verify your qualifying student loan
• Complete a Form W-9 (required for IRS reporting purposes)
• Confirm your loan servicer information
Once documentation is complete, we issue the payment directly to your loan servicer.
Because awards of this type are considered taxable income under federal law, a W-9 is required before payment can be issued. All information is handled securely and used solely for required reporting purposes.
It’s that simple.
Can I donate to help?
Yes. Every donation goes directly toward paying off student loans. We keep our overhead minimal so your contribution has maximum impact. Donations are tax-deductible.
How are winners selected?
Winners are chosen randomly through a certified drawing process. Each entry has an equal chance. We announce winners monthly and share their stories with permission.
How are prizes funded?
Student Debt Rebellion uses a fully funded prize model.
Each advertised prize amount is applied directly to the winner’s student loan. We also set aside estimated taxes and required reporting costs so winners are not surprised later.
Prizes are awarded only when the full funding threshold is met. If a drawing does not reach that threshold, contributions roll forward to the next drawing.
What counts as Financial Hardship?
Student Debt Rebellion relies on self-attestation. Financial hardship may include difficulty making student loan payments, balancing loan obligations with living expenses, or experiencing stress or limitation due to student loan debt. Documentation is not required.
