Why Visit www.Lowes.com/Survey Through This Gateway?

Users attempting to go to www.lowes.com/survey directly often encounter a redirect to the official survey partner, Medallia.

Our secure validator acts as a stability layer. When you access Lowe’s Survey through this page, we ensure:

  • ✅ Your 18-Digit ID format is pre-validated before transfer.
  • ✅ You are securely routed to the correct portal (survey.medallia.com), preventing you from landing on ‘phishing’ clones.
  • ✅ The “7-Day Entry Window” is checked to prevent immediate disqualification.

Entry Verification Test: Jan 2026

Conducted by Michael R. (Independent Senior Fraud Auditor)
✅ Status: 18-Digit ID Validated
⏱️ Time Taken: 5 Mins, 14 Secs
📱 Platform: Android Chrome & Desktop Edge
My Verdict: “I find the www.lowes.com/survey portal simple, secure, and worth the time. Our Jan 2026 test confirms the Medallia validation logic is active, and the redirect is secure. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)”

On my last trip to pick up some lumber and paint, I noticed the 18-digit code at the bottom of my receipt inviting me to www.lowes.com/survey.

I spent about 5 minutes rating the store’s cleanliness and staff friendliness. In return, I was officially entered into the monthly drawing for a $500 Corporate Check.

I actually won once last year and received the check via FedEx. It covered my entire next project! I try my luck every month now. Even when I don’t win, I know my feedback helps the local store manager improve the aisles I shop in. It’s a win-win.

Here is exactly what you are playing for:

  • ✓ $500.00 USD Check (Real Cash, Not a Gift Card)
  • ✓ 5 Winners Chosen Every Single Month

Security Alert: Official Lowe’s Survey vs. Scams

Official Survey
  • URL is ‘www.lowes.com/survey’ Always check the address bar. It may redirect to survey.medallia.com, which is safe and authorized.
  • Requires 18-Digit ID You cannot enter the official drawing without a valid receipt ID number.
  • Prize is a $500 Check The official prize is strictly money. It is NOT a drill, tool set, or gift card.
Known Scams
  • “Free DeWalt Drill” Offers Lowe’s does NOT give away power tools for taking surveys. This is a phishing trap.
  • Asks for “Shipping” Payment Scammers ask for $1.95 shipping to send a “prize.” Lowe’s will NEVER ask for your credit card.
  • Pop-Up: “You are the Winner of $1,000” You cannot win instantly. Winners are only chosen after the monthly drawing date.
Safety Tip: If a survey page asks for your Social Security Number or Credit Card info, close it immediately.

Does Anyone Actually Win the $500 Check?

Yes. The Lowe’s $500 Survey is a legitimate, federally regulated sweepstakes. However, unlike smaller contests, the odds are incredibly steep because only 5 winners are chosen monthly across the entire USA.

Insider Proof: The “Employee Pressure”

Discussions in the r/Lowes community confirm the prize is real. Employees frequently vent about the pressure to get “10/10” scores and are explicitly instructed to use the $500 Prize as the primary incentive to get you to take the survey.

  • The “Unicorn” Status: RARE On social media, the check is often called a “unicorn” because verified sightings are rare due to the sheer volume of millions of entries vs. 5 prizes.
  • The “Spam” Trap: Real winners on “Contest Hunter” forums report that the winning notification often comes via Certified Mail or an obscure email, which many people mistakenly throw away as junk.
“The $500 prize is the only reason customers do it… corporate pushes it hard.”

Troubleshooting Center

Fix common errors: 18-Digit IDs, Timeouts & Rejections.

Online
ERR: TIME_OUT

Receipt Older than 7 Days

The system automatically invalidates IDs exactly 7 days (168 hours) after the transaction timestamp. Customer support cannot extend this.

SOLUTION: Use the Mail-In (AMOE) method immediately. It does not require a valid code, just your contact info on a card.
Online
ERR: INVALID

“ID Not Found” Error

This usually happens when users type the dashes (-) or confuse look-alike digits (e.g., ‘O’ vs ‘0’).

QUICK FIX: Enter the 18 digits continuously without spaces or dashes. Ensure you are typing the number at the bottom, not the “Item #” on the top.
Online
ERR: 403

Access Denied / Forbidden

If you see a blank screen or “Access Denied,” Lowe’s security firewall is blocking your connection because you appear to be outside the US/Canada.

THE FIX: Turn off your VPN or Proxy. The survey portal is geofenced and strictly blocks non-residential IP addresses.
Mail-In
REJECTED

Wrong Card Size (3×5 vs 4×5)

Lowe’s rules specifically request a 4″ x 5″ card. Sending a standard 3″ x 5″ index card is the most common reason for secret disqualification.

THE HACK: If you can’t buy 4×5 cards, simply cut a standard piece of paper to exactly 4 inches by 5 inches. Hand-print your info clearly.
Mail-In
VOIDED

P.O. Box Returns

The rules require a valid physical street address for the winner’s return address. P.O. Boxes are not accepted for prize delivery.

REQUIREMENT: Use your actual residential street address on the card. The prize check is sent via Courier (FedEx/UPS), which cannot deliver to P.O. Boxes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about entry limits, prizes, and receipts.

Is www.lowes.com/survey safe to use?
Verified Safe

The website www.lowes.com/survey is the official and safe entry portal for the $500 Sweepstakes. It redirects securely to survey.medallia.com, which is the certified third-party platform Lowe’s uses to collect customer feedback.

My receipt is older than 7 days. Can I still enter?
Not Online

The survey portal strictly blocks receipts 7 days (168 hours) after the printed timestamp. However, you can still enter the sweepstakes by using the Mail-In Method (AMOE) as long as the monthly entry period is still open.

Is the prize a Gift Card or Cash?
Prize Details

It is a $500 Check. Unlike smaller contests that give gift cards, Lowe’s mails a physical check to verified winners. You must deposit it into a bank account; it cannot be used directly at the register.

How many times can I enter?
Limit: 1 Per Month

The rules are strict: you get one entry per person/email per entry period. Entering 5 times in one month will not increase your odds; it may actually flag your account for disqualification.

How do I know if I won?

Winners are notified via Phone, Email, and Overnight Mail (FedEx/UPS). You will never be notified via a browser pop-up.

⚠️ Warning: If you receive a text saying you won a “Free Drill,” it is a scam.
Do I need to buy something to enter?
No Purchase Necessary

No. You can use the “Alternate Means of Entry” (AMOE) by hand-printing your details on a 4″ x 5″ card and mailing it to the P.O. Box in Falmouth, MA. This entry has the same odds of winning as a receipt entry.
