How does CUE's AR Prize Drop handle prize distribution to ensure it qualifies as a randomized sweepstakes rather than first-come-first-served?

CUE's AR Prize Drop uses a probability-based system to distribute prizes, ensuring it functions as a randomized instant-win sweepstakes rather than a first-come-first-served giveaway. When setting up the activation, you configure a win percentage (typically in the 4-15% range depending on expected participation). Each time a fan taps a parachute, the system randomly determines if they win based on this percentage‚ so winning is truly chance-based, not speed-based. For example, at a 10% probability, each parachute tap has a 10% chance of being a winner, regardless of when the fan joined. Once the total prize pool is exhausted (say, 25 prizes), subsequent participants receive the 'all prizes claimed' consolation screen. This structure satisfies legal requirements for sweepstakes by maintaining the element of chance rather than rewarding speed or skill.
