Question:
How are PCH winners notified?
Answer:
For online, mobile or app winners of amounts under $600, prizes may be in the form of online gift cards or prize checks.
Prize checks are sent via First Class U.S. Mail for prizes under $600 and via overnight mail (or UPS) for prizes of $600 and above. Prizes of $10,000 and above may be awarded either by overnight mail (or UPS) or in person by the PCH Prize Patrol, depending on location and availability of the Prize Patrol. SuperPrizes of $1 Million or more are awarded in person by the PCH Prize Patrol.
