Now onboarding founding operators
The thrill of winning.
The science of selling.
Everything you need to run a prize competition in the UK — your own storefront, Cashflows checkout, compliance tooling, and draws anyone can verify. Built for a creator's first giveaway and for operators who run them every week.
Provably fair draws · UK compliance tooling built in · No developers needed
How it works
Prize in. Tickets out. Winner drawn.
Three steps. No code, no designer, no legal team on retainer.
Name the prize.
A car, a PS5, £5k cash. Type it in and the builder does the rest — copy, thumbnail, price, T&Cs, ready for your edit.
Sell the tickets.
Your own storefront, your brand on it. Card payments through Cashflows. Every buyer gets their numbers by email.
Draw it live.
Open the draw room, share the link, watch the winning ticket land. The maths is public — anyone can check it.
One thing first: Cashflows underwrites your account before you can take payments. £500, once. Around 48 hours. Build while you wait.

Provably fair
Nobody picks the winner. Not even us.
Half the answer is sealed before tickets go on sale. The other half is a public coin toss nobody controls. Put them together and the winner falls out — and anyone can redo the maths.
- 1
We seal our half in an envelope. Before a single ticket sells.
When you create a competition, the system generates a secret number and locks its fingerprint away with a timestamp. Change the secret later and the fingerprint no longer matches — everyone would see the seal was broken.
Server secret → SHA-256 commitment, recorded at creation
- 2
The other half is a coin toss nobody controls.
At draw time we take the newest number from drand — a public randomness beacon run by independent organisations around the world, publishing a fresh value every 30 seconds. Nobody can know it in advance. Not you. Not us.

Put the halves together and the winner falls out.
Our secret plus the coin toss makes one number. That number runs a published formula over the locked list of tickets. Same halves, same list, same winner — on our servers or on your laptop. There is no step where a person chooses.

Illustrative values. The seal and seed checks run in the entrant's own browser; the ticket list and the exact selection code are published so anyone can re-run the third.
Every ticket, listed
The public entry list shows every issued ticket number, paid and free, before and after the draw.
Winners told first
The winner is emailed the moment the draw completes; everyone else gets a non-winner email. Results and winners pages update on your storefront.
Money handled by Cashflows
Card fields are rendered by Cashflows inside checkout, so card data never reaches Giveawayz. Cashflows is FCA-regulated and PCI DSS Level 1.
Revenue calculator

Move the sliders. Every fee shown, nothing blended away.
Your plan
2.5% platform fee · up to 5,000 tickets per competition · card processing at ≈2.4% + 23p per order (indicative)
You keep
from 1,000 tickets at £2.99 each — after the platform fee and indicative card processing
Indicative: a typical Cashflows rate card for UK operators. Cashflows sets each merchant's rates at underwriting, and scheme costs depend on the cards your customers use (VAT at 20% on gateway fees is reclaimable if you're VAT-registered). The pence are per order, not per ticket — which is why bundles lift what you keep. Prize costs not included.
Illustration only. Excludes prize costs, refunds, free postal entries and any optional add-ons. Card-processing rates are set individually per merchant by Cashflows at underwriting.
Plans from £49/month · £500 + VAT one-off Cashflows setup, refunded if declined · about £28/month Cashflows gateway & PCI

Common questions
What are platform fees?
Platform fees range from 1-3% depending on your plan, separate from Cashflows card processing. Your ticket revenue settles directly to your account — you keep the full ticket price, minus your platform fee and card processing.
How much does card processing cost?
Card processing is handled by Cashflows, our payment partner, separately from your subscription and platform fee, on an interchange++ rate card. Indicatively: about 2% + 5p per order for acquiring, plus card-scheme costs passed through at cost (roughly 0.3–0.6% on UK consumer cards), plus a 15p + VAT gateway fee per order — so around 2.4% + 23p per order all in, where the pence are per order, not per ticket. On top there is a gateway and PCI fee of about £28 a month inc. VAT and a one-off £500 + VAT setup fee, refunded if the application is declined. Cashflows sets each operator’s exact rates at underwriting; the calculator above uses these indicative figures, and the dashboard lets you enter your own once approved.
Can I change plans?
Yes, you can upgrade or downgrade at any time. Changes take effect at your next billing cycle. Upgrading is prorated, so you only pay the difference.
Is there a setup cost?
Three costs to be aware of: your monthly plan subscription (from £49/mo); a one-time £500 + VAT Cashflows setup fee, refunded in full if your application is declined; and Cashflows' fixed gateway and PCI fees of about £28 a month inc. VAT. The setup fee covers your underwriting by Cashflows, an FCA-authorised UK payment provider that works with competition operators — paid once, not per competition and not annually.
How long does the Cashflows approval take?
After signing up and completing onboarding, you'll connect with Cashflows for payment underwriting. Most operators are typically approved within around 48 hours. You can build your first competition in the dashboard while you wait — so you're ready to publish the moment approval lands.
What are the ticket limits?
Each plan has a maximum number of tickets you can sell per competition: Starter 500, Growth 5,000, Pro 100,000 and Enterprise 450,000. The Enterprise ceiling is the largest pool our provably-fair draw engine resolves in a single draw — free postal entries count towards it too.
How does the AI work?
Our AI generates competition descriptions, professional thumbnails, optimal pricing, qualifying questions, and draft T&Cs built for UK competitions from your prize details. Growth plans include 50 AI generations per month. Pro and Enterprise plans include unlimited generations.
What makes the draws provably fair?
Every draw uses a cryptographic seed and deterministic selection algorithm. The seed, method, timestamp, and full entrant snapshot are recorded as an audit trail that anyone can verify.
