At Rafflers, we take compliance seriously. We pride ourselves on offering a platform where customers can trust that every business listed is 100% adhering to the Gambling Act 2005 and running fair, legal competitions. To ensure this, we use a strict vetting process that goes beyond the basics of the law, making sure every business meets high standards for transparency, security, and integrity.
At Rafflers, being legal isn’t enough—we go further. Once a prize competition business is confirmed to be fully compliant with the Gambling Act 2005, we carry out our own advanced checks, shown below..
We examine all reviews left across various platforms, including social media, Trustpilot, and other review sites. This helps us ensure that the business maintains a positive reputation and delivers on its promises to participants.
We only list businesses that have been actively running for a minimum of 3 months. This ensures the business has a proven track record of operation and isn’t a new or fly-by-night operator.
We check the business’s official registration with Companies House to ensure it is a legitimate and legally registered entity in the UK.
Its important that a businesses host their draws live on a social media platform. This promotes transparency, allowing participants to see the draws as they happen in real-time, ensuring fairness and eliminating any concerns of manipulation.
A secure payment platform is essential for the safety of participants’ personal and financial details. We verify that all listed businesses use trusted, secure payment systems on their websites to protect customers and maintain trust.
Every competition must have well-written terms and conditions that cover all the necessary areas, including entry requirements, draw dates, winner notifications, and prize details. This ensures that participants understand the rules and their rights, avoiding any ambiguity.
We check how ticket numbers are allocated to participants to ensure a fair and transparent process. This prevents any possibility of manipulation or unfair advantage.
We require that businesses provide evidence of winners for each competition. This includes showcasing images or videos of the prize being awarded or received. This adds an extra layer of transparency and proof of authenticity, ensuring that participants can see real winners benefiting from the prizes. By verifying and displaying this evidence, we make sure businesses are not just claiming to give away prizes, but are actually following through and rewarding their participants.
