1. Connect a card
Securely link a debit or credit card with Plaid — read-only. We can see activity to confirm you're active; we can never move a cent.

🎟️ Entries are always free. Winners are shown by username only — never your real name.
No catch. Here's exactly how it works.
Winsome is part of a consumer data panel. In exchange for free weekly chances to win, members let us see read-only spending activity through Plaid. That's the whole model — we make money from anonymized panel insights, never from you.
- Your login and money stay with your bank. Our access is read-only.
- No deposits, no custody, no purchases — there is no way to pay us.
- Winners appear by username only. Your real name is never shown publicly.
Prefer not to link a card? There's always a free mail-in entry method with equal odds — no purchase or account necessary.
