Can I offer contests that involve VIP programs in Wisconsin? What are the requirements?

Based on the documents provided, it appears that contests involving VIP programs are not specifically addressed. However, Wisconsin law does provide requirements for raffles and advertising programs.

To conduct a raffle in Wisconsin, a qualified organization must first receive a license under s. 563.92 ^[4.1]. If the organization has not received a license, it may conduct a raffle if certain conditions are met, including that the prize does not exceed $500 and the raffle tickets are offered for sale only to members of the qualified organization ^[4.1].

For advertising programs, eligible applicants may submit an application no less than 90 days prior to the first date advertising supported by funds under this chapter is scheduled to begin ^[5.1]. The application shall include a description of the project, an advertising plan, a budget for the project, and an income and expense statement for the year of the project and the previous year, if applicable ^[5.1].

Based on the information provided, it is unclear whether contests involving VIP programs would fall under the requirements for raffles or advertising programs. Therefore, it is recommended that you consult with a legal professional for further guidance.
