Our Story
Publishers Clearing House has been delivering life-changing prizes to real people across America since 1967. What started as a magazine subscription service evolved into the country's most recognized sweepstakes brand, famous for our Prize Patrol surprise visits.
Our mission is simple: give everyday Americans the chance to win extraordinary prizes — absolutely free. We believe in the power of dreams, and every day we work to make those dreams a reality for our winners.
How We Work

Free to Enter
