## Why this rule exists

Prize promotions carry their own use case and their own disclosure obligations, and a brand running one under a marketing registration has skipped both. AWS rejects on the brand rather than the campaign, so a business whose messages never mention the giveaway is still refused for the page that hosts it.

## How to fix it

Register under the sweepstakes use case where the promotion is live, and publish the official rules alongside the entry page. Where the promotion is over, take the page down or mark it closed before resubmitting.

## Example of a compliant value

```text
Use case: SWEEPSTAKE, with official rules published at https://acmecoffee.com/rules and linked from the entry page.
```

## Notes

Related to but distinct from MSG-206, which reads the campaign copy. This one fires on site evidence alone, which is the case a campaign-only screen cannot see.
