Visitors

Visitors to the checkyourchange.com website compare the Series and Serial numbers of the $1.00 bills they find in their everyday change to the 20 $1.00 bills we have stored in our database. When a visitor finds a closer match than any other visitor for a particular bill in our database that visitor will be listed on the homepage leaderboard.  Visitors that have a close match, but not the closest match will receive a message telling them how far off (in digits) they were from becoming the current leader.   Leaders will not be posted to the leaderboard until checkyourchange.com has verified by email, fax or mail that the bill is indeed authentic. 

Visitors are limited to 60 searches per household per day.  The odds of winning depend on several factors including the number of visitors to the checkyourchange.com website and the number of searches each visitor perfoms.  This contest is absolutely free to enter. 

The homepage will feature a list of visitors with the closest matching dollar bills to the 20 bills in our database.  Each $1.00 bill in the database will have a single finalist in all phases of the contest. 

Checkyourchange.com will award the current leaders on the leaderboard cash prizes based on milestones the site has reached in relation to the prize fund.
