Vessel Letters
Holiday Referral Contest

Ranked by qualifying referrals. This is not a random drawing.

1. Sponsor and period

The Witch’s Vessel, 243 E 5th Ave PMB A, Anchorage, AK 99501. Contact: [email protected]. The contest runs from November 8, 2026, to December 31, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern. Both the qualifying signup and completed payment must be recorded within this period.

2. Who may enter

U.S. residents age 18 or older with an active member account may enter by confirming their eligibility and accepting these rules on the contest page. The sponsor, people administering this contest, and their immediate households are excluded. Void where prohibited. Entry is free. Entrants do not have to buy anything. First-prize recipients must be able to receive the PayPal payment.

3. A qualifying referral

Share your personal contest link. A new person must voluntarily join Vessel Letters through that link and then complete a paid website purchase of any amount using the same email address, before the deadline. There is no minimum order value. Each genuine person counts once, regardless of how many orders they place or emails they use. Their first qualifying paid order determines when the referral is reached.

People already recorded as Vessel Letters subscribers, including past subscribers who rejoin, do not count as new signups. Self-referrals, duplicate or fabricated identities, unpaid orders, cancellations, refunds and disputed payments do not qualify. Referrals can unsubscribe from Vessel Letters at any time. Newsletter consent must never be supplied on someone else’s behalf. Attribution is recorded at signup and cannot be changed by entering a different code afterward. Browser settings that block the referral cookie may prevent attribution; the friend should join directly on the linked referral page.

4. Share honestly

Include this disclosure next to your referral link: “I’m participating in The Witch’s Vessel referral contest and may win a prize if you subscribe and purchase through my link.” No spam, unsolicited bulk messages, impersonation, purchased signups, or misleading claims. A positive review is not required. Follow the rules of any community or platform where you share.

5. Ranking and ties

The highest verified number of qualifying people wins first place, the next highest wins second, and the next wins third. One prize per entrant. A total of at least one qualifying referral is needed to rank. If fewer than three entrants qualify, only the earned places are awarded.

Ties go to the entrant who first reached the tied total using the recorded qualifying paid-order time. If that time is identical to the recorded second, the earlier recorded qualifying order is used; if still identical, the earlier contest enrollment time applies. The sponsor will verify records before announcing a final result. Displayed counts and ranks are provisional.

6. Prizes

1. First: $100 USD cash via PayPal. This is cash, not store credit.
2. Second: $50 USD in The Witch’s Vessel store credit. Not redeemable for cash.
3. Third: one free full-spread tarot reading or one complete palm reading, chosen by the winner. Delivered digitally; required reading details or palm photographs must be provided privately.

Prizes are not transferable. Any applicable taxes are the recipient’s responsibility. No payment or processing fee is required to claim a prize. PayPal is the payment method for first prize, not a sponsor or administrator of this contest.

7. Verification and notification

After the contest closes, Selia will verify signup attribution, paid orders, refunds, duplicate-person concerns and entrant eligibility, then contact the provisional winners through their registered account email. The sponsor will request only the information needed to verify eligibility and deliver the prize. PayPal details and reading information are collected privately, never displayed on a public leaderboard.

A provisional winner has seven days from the notification email to respond. If they are ineligible, decline, cannot receive their prize or do not respond, the next eligible ranked entrant is considered. Final prize delivery is arranged directly after verification. Cash is not sent automatically by the website.

8. Fair administration and privacy

Fraudulent or ineligible referrals may be removed from the count with the reason retained for review. Genuine referrals are not removed merely for unsubscribing. Email addresses and order details are used to attribute and verify referrals and are visible only to authorized shop management. Entrants see their own provisional total and rank, not their friends’ purchase details. No retroactive changes to prizes, scoring or the closing date are planned. If a technical failure affects the contest, the sponsor will explain any necessary correction publicly and preserve the recorded evidence.

Questions or a request for verified winner information may be sent to the sponsor at the contact above. Personal contact and payment information will not be published.
