How It Works
Entering a competition takes less than two minutes. Here's everything you need to know.
Browse Live Competitions
Visit our Competitions page to see all active prize draws. Filter by category — cars, cash, tech, holidays, and more. Each competition clearly shows the prize value, ticket price, draw date, and maximum tickets per person.
Create a Free Account
Register in under a minute. We need your name, email address, and date of birth to confirm you are a UK resident aged 18 or over. Your account lets you track your ticket numbers and receive draw notifications.
Select Your Tickets
Choose how many tickets you wish to enter. Each competition has a set ticket price and a maximum number of tickets per person. The more tickets you hold, the greater your chances — but every ticket has a fair and equal chance of winning.
Answer the Skill-Based Question
To comply with UK competition law, all entries require a correct answer to a straightforward skill-based question (for example: "What is 5 + 3?"). This is a legal requirement and applies to both paid online entries and free postal entries. The question is always clearly displayed before you confirm your entry.
Receive Your Ticket Number
Once your entry is confirmed, you will be issued one unique ticket number per entry (e.g. MC-041293). Your ticket numbers are stored in your account under My Tickets and emailed to you for your records. Keep them safe — this is your proof of entry.
Watch the Live Prize Draw
On the draw date, we broadcast live on our website and social media channels. A winning ticket number is selected using a verified random number generator. The draw is recorded and results are published within 24 hours. Every draw has a guaranteed winner.
Winners Are Notified Directly
If your ticket number is drawn, you will be contacted by email and phone within 24 hours. We will verify your identity and arrange delivery or transfer of your prize. Cash prizes are paid directly to your nominated UK bank account. Physical prizes are delivered to your door.
