• A pop-up on the sponsor's page says "Scratch off to reveal your offer" and shows 1,000 bonus entries, and the footer invites an email sign-up for "bonus entry opportunities". The rules describe no email or pop-up entry, only a Bonus Entry Link given for making a purchase, so how these entries are earned and counted is not in the rules.
