Brand Migration Checklist

A structured checklist for operators planning to move an existing sweepstakes brand to a new platform. Use it as a planning framework — actual migration plans should be tailored to your specific systems and data.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
  • Migration is a program, not a project — plan for a phased cutover.
  • Balances, identities, and audit trails require special care.
  • Player communication is as important as the technical work.
  • Post-migration monitoring is where issues actually get caught.
01

1. Discovery & Mapping

  • Inventory current data: player accounts, balances, KYC state, historical activity.
  • Map current workflows: promotions, redemptions, support, compliance-support.
  • Document integrations that need to be re-established.
02

2. Player Account & Balance Migration

  • Define the source of truth for balances and reconcile before cutover.
  • Plan identity re-verification requirements, if any.
  • Preserve historical activity for compliance-support and player transparency.
03

3. Content, Campaigns & Loyalty

  • Rebuild active promotions, tiers, and loyalty state on the new platform.
  • Coordinate content availability with content partners.
  • Freeze campaign changes during the cutover window.
04

4. Cutover & Communication

  • Schedule cutover for a low-activity window and communicate clearly with players.
  • Have rollback criteria and a rollback plan agreed in advance.
  • Prepare a player FAQ and support scripts.
05

5. Post-Migration Monitoring

  • Reconcile balances and activity for the first several days.
  • Watch identity, redemption, and support queues closely.
  • Schedule a post-mortem to capture lessons for the next brand or expansion.
