Bright Competitions

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Bright Competitions is a small, community-flavoured instant-win site — pennies-per-ticket draws, scratch cards, cashback and a chatty Facebook following — rather than a big-prize car raffle operator. Its Trustpilot score is excellent on paper (4.8), but the operation is tiny compared with the sector’s big names, and that cuts both ways. Here is our honest assessment.

Who runs Bright Competitions?

The operator is Prestige Gaming Limited, a company with a single director (Jacquelyn Nunn) trading from a Manchester PO Box, incorporated in May 2022 and only renamed from “Find My Finance Limited” in February 2025 — although the Bright brand itself has been around since roughly 2020. There is no big corporate group behind it: this is a small business, and entrants should size their spending accordingly.

How the competitions work

Bright’s staple is the low-price instant-win draw with a published ticket total and a jackpot draw on top. Live examples when we checked on 28 July 2026: “5p Fortune” (5p a ticket, 120,000 tickets, 2,042 instant wins plus five £55 jackpots); “10p Beach Bar” (10p, 60,000 tickets, 1,100 instant wins); “The King of Cash” (20p, 140,000 tickets, instant wins up to £2,000); and “Happy Hour” (£1.99, 9,999 tickets, £1,000 jackpot). Draws run live on Facebook — typically Tuesdays and Sundays — using Google’s random number generator, and to its credit Bright publishes full entry lists for past draws, which many bigger sites do not.

The free entry route

Post your name, address, date of birth, email and phone number to Prestige Gaming Limited t/a Bright Competitions, PO Box 77, Manchester M46 6BB, arriving before the closing date. One entry per card, each sent separately. The terms state free entries are treated exactly the same as paid entries. There is also a refer-a-friend scheme paying £10 site credit, and cashback on purchases.

Reputation — read the small print on the numbers

Bright’s 4.8 Trustpilot rating (96% five-star) comes from 1,971 lifetime reviews — but only 53 in the past year, and the company does not reply to negative reviews. Regulars praise the friendly staff, the frequent small wins and the community feel. The recent complaints are the kind that matter at a small operator: perceptions that the same names keep winning the social-media freebies, one paid-competition prize that reviewers say never arrived, and allegations — unproven — that scratch cards were offered in exchange for reviews. None of this is a scandal, but with review volume this thin, the headline score deserves less weight than a big site’s.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Very cheap tickets (5p–£1.99) with published ticket totals
• Full past-draw entry lists published — rare transparency
• Live Facebook draws with Google’s RNG
• Equal-odds free postal route, plus cashback and referral credit
• Friendly, responsive staff and community feel

Cons

• No cash alternative — prizes must be accepted as awarded
• Tiny operation: sole director, PO Box address, thin recent review volume
• Does not respond to negative reviews
• Small prizes — the largest wins reviewers report are around £1,000
• Five-working-day claim window before forfeit

Our verdict

Bright Competitions is a pocket-money site done with unusual transparency for its size — published entry lists and an equal-odds free route are genuinely good practice. But it is not where you go to win a car, there is no cash alternative, and the thin recent review volume means we treat its glossy rating with caution. Fine for a few pence of fun; size your expectations — and your spend — to match, and check the maths with our odds calculator.

Click Competitions

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Click Competitions is a Norwich-based operator with some of the strongest entrant protections in the sector written directly into its terms — equal-odds postal entry, published entry lists, a 100%-of-value guarantee if a prize cannot be supplied, and signatory status on the government’s voluntary prize-draw code. Since 2025 it has been part of Winvia Entertainment, the AIM-listed group behind BOTB and Rev Comps. Here is our independent review.

Who runs Click Competitions?

Click Competitions Limited was founded in April 2020 by Justin Franklin and Daniel Oldham, who sold the business to Winvia Entertainment in a deal announced in May 2025; the founders have since left and Winvia appointees run the company. That puts Click inside the UK’s largest prize-draw group alongside BOTB and Rev Comps — three of the sixteen sites we track now share one owner.

How the competitions work

Entry uses the standard skill question, with winners selected by certified random number generator software in live or automated draws — daily, with guaranteed draw dates. Live examples when we checked on 28 July 2026: a Mercedes-AMG GT plus £2,000 at 16p a ticket (cash alternative £50,000); a VW Transporter T32 with a Dewalt bundle at 39p (£35,000 alternative); £10,000 tax-free cash at 1p; a Rolex GMT-Master II at 24p; and a Mitsubishi EVO IX at 89p. Entry caps and per-player limits are displayed per competition, and Click publishes full entry lists and draw results — transparency most rivals do not match. Instant-win cash goes to a withdrawable balance.

The free entry route

Send a handwritten postcard (mechanically produced entries are rejected) with your full name, address, phone, registered account email and the competition name to Click Competitions, PO Box 376, Great Yarmouth, NR30 9HD. One entry per postcard, unlimited separate cards up to the competition limit, arriving within the promotion period. The terms state postal entries have the same chance per entry as paid tickets and qualify for instant wins free of charge.

Reputation

Click holds a 4.7 Trustpilot rating from 4,469 reviews with a sector-best 98% five-star share and only 1% one-star — earned without soliciting reviews. Winners repeatedly report cash within hours (a £100,000 McLaren cash alternative was paid inside 24 hours in April 2026). The complaint themes are modest: persistent SMS marketing (with a dispute over whether opting out costs the sender anything — Click says it bears the cost), one accusation of a “fake sale” where a discounted ticket price came with a raised entry cap (Click’s response: the draw did not sell out, so real odds were similar), and occasional unproven “same names win” grumbles.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Best-in-class terms: equal-odds postal route, 100%-of-value prize guarantee, 30-day claim window
• Publishes full entry lists and draw results
• 98% five-star Trustpilot share without soliciting reviews; fast documented payouts
• Signatory of the DCMS voluntary code of good practice (effective May 2026)
• Backed by AIM-listed Winvia Entertainment

Cons

• Cars are collection-only from a UK location, with no insurance or tax included
• £3/month admin fee on accounts inactive for over 12 months — withdraw your balance if you stop playing
• Marketing SMS volume irritates entrants
• Smaller review base than the biggest rivals

Our verdict

On paper, Click has the most entrant-friendly rulebook we have reviewed, and its payout record backs it up. Collect-only cars and the inactive-account fee are the practical catches. Check each draw’s entry cap with our odds calculator and it earns a high place on our leaderboard.

Storm Competitions

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Storm Competitions is one of the most-reviewed competition sites in the UK — 4.8 on Trustpilot from more than 38,000 reviews — with a JDM-flavoured prize list, low-ticket “LOW ODDS” draws, and a claimed £9m+ given away. It is also the site with the sector’s most persistent recent complaint cluster about free postal entries. Both halves of that picture belong in an honest review.

Who runs Storm and how it works

The current operating company is Storm-UK Ltd (incorporated May 2023, Manchester registered office), though the brand has run draws since around 2020. Competitions are fixed-odds with published maximums and sold counts. Live examples when we checked on 28 July 2026: a Nissan Skyline R34 GTT at £2.99 a ticket (15,999 max, £15,000 cash alternative); an iPhone 17 Pro Max “LOW ODDS” draw at £20 with just 99 tickets; £1,000 for £1.99 across 999 tickets; and a Rolex-and-cash instant-win draw at 99p across 399,999 tickets. Winners are chosen by what the terms call a verifiably random process, with draws run live on Facebook and results published on-site. Storm signed the government’s voluntary code of good practice for prize draw operators, effective May 2026.

The free entry route — and the complaint cluster

Free entry is by post to Storm Competitions, PO Box 811, Northwich, CW9 9WW, with the competition name, your full name, address, phone, email and date of birth, each entry posted separately and arriving before the closing date. Here is what we have to flag: through the first half of 2026, multiple independent reviewers alleged their qualifying postal entries never appeared in their accounts or the entry lists, with no reply from support — and Storm’s replies to some critics have been combative, in at least one case telling a complainant they were banned from entering by any method. One reviewer says they sent evidence to Trading Standards and the ASA; no ruling exists and the allegations are unproven. But if the free route is why you enter, this is currently the weakest place in the sector to rely on it — keep proof of postage and verify your entries appear on the published lists.

Reputation and payouts

Alongside that cluster sits a genuinely strong delivery record: 92% five-star reviews, winners describing same-day or next-day prize deliveries, fast cash payouts and personal WhatsApp or phone contact from the team. The cash-alternative wording in the terms is weaker than most (market value sought from local traders, less reasonable admin costs), but in practice the site displays fixed cash-alternative figures on each listing — go by what the listing states. Winners have 21 days to claim before a redraw.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Huge review base (38,000+) at 4.8, with fast documented deliveries and payouts
• Genuine short-odds draws (99-ticket “LOW ODDS” competitions)
• Published max tickets and sold counts on every draw
• DCMS voluntary code signatory

Cons

• Recurring 2026 allegations that postal entries were not credited, with combative responses to complainants
• Cash-alternative terms weaker on paper than the listings suggest
• Requests for pre-draw entry-list publication have gone unmet
• Operating company only dates from 2023, younger than the brand suggests

Our verdict

For paid entries, Storm’s delivery and payout record is among the best-evidenced in the sector, and its LOW ODDS draws are a genuinely good format — sanity-check them with our odds calculator. Until the postal-entry complaints stop recurring, though, we cannot recommend relying on its free route, and that costs it leaderboard places. We will update this review as the pattern develops.

Hittin It Big

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Hittin It Big is a Northern Irish competition site (operated by MG Collective Ltd of Garvagh, County Londonderry, incorporated February 2020) that has built a strong following — particularly in Northern Ireland and, unusually, the Isle of Man — on very cheap tickets and quick payouts. It held a 4.8 Trustpilot rating from 9,287 reviews when we checked on 28 July 2026, with 91% five-star and just 1% one-star.

How the competitions work

Draws run within seven days of a competition closing using what the terms describe as a verifiably random process — in company replies to reviewers it specifies a certified random number generator with a full audit trail — through both live and automated draws. Live examples when we checked: a “Place in the Sun or £200,000 tax free” draw at £1.19 a ticket; “£500 for 5p”; an iPhone 17 Pro Max at 20p; plus a free daily “Plinko” site-credit game. Entry is open to residents of the UK, Ireland, Isle of Man and Channel Islands aged 18+.

The terms have one genuinely good clause: if an advertised prize turns out to be unavailable, the winner gets cash equal to 100% of the advertised value (rounded to the nearest £100) — stronger protection than the discretionary substitution many rivals use. Cash alternatives on normal draws are as stated per competition.

The free entry route

Send an unenclosed postcard with your name, address, phone, email, date of birth and the competition name to Hittin It Big, 76 Glen Road, Garvagh, Coleraine BT51 5DF. One entry per postcard; multiple cards in one envelope count as a single entry. See our free postal entry directory for every site’s route.

Pros and cons

Pros

• 4.8 Trustpilot from 9,000+ reviews with only 1% one-star
• Winners report fast payouts (including a £45,000 winner paid promptly in 2026)
• 100%-of-value cash guarantee if a prize is unavailable
• Very cheap tickets and a free daily game
• Open to Isle of Man and Channel Islands entrants, which most sites exclude

Cons

• Replies to only about half of negative reviews
• Some reviewers allege the same names win repeatedly — the company points to its certified RNG and audit trail; the claims are unproven
• Smaller operation than the sector giants, with prizes to match

Our verdict

A solid regional operator with unusually entrant-friendly prize-substitution terms and a clean record. Check each draw’s entry cap against our odds calculator and it is a reasonable choice for small-stakes entries.

BOTB

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. This page contains affiliate links to BOTB — if you sign up through them we may earn a commission at no cost to you. This never affects our scores: see how we make money.

BOTB (Best of the Best) is the elder statesman of UK car competitions: founded in 1999, it ran supercar displays at UK airports for two decades, spent 17 years as a stock-market-listed company, and gives away a dream car every single week. It is also fundamentally different from every raffle-style site we review — its flagship game is a skill contest, not a draw — and that difference cuts both ways. Here is our full, independent review.

What is BOTB?

Founded by William Hindmarch in 1999 with its first supercar stand at Heathrow Terminal 4, Best of the Best plc listed on London’s AIM market in 2006 and moved fully online in 2019. In 2023 it was taken private in a £45.3m deal by Globe Invest, the family office of tech billionaire Teddy Sagi, and became the anchor of the new Winvia Entertainment group — which returned to AIM in October 2025 and has since bought Click Competitions and Rev Comps. Two decades of audited public accounts make BOTB the most financially transparent operator in the sector by a distance.

How BOTB works — it is not a raffle

BOTB’s flagship Dream Car Competition is Spot the Ball, a game of skill. You pick from 150+ cars, buy tickets (from around 40p), and place a coordinate on a football photo with the ball removed — your judgement of where the ball is. After the competition closes, an independent panel of sporting judges determines the ball’s position in the presence of a lawyer and a company representative, and the entry closest to the judged position wins the car. A winner is guaranteed every week, the next 20 closest entries win runner-up prizes, and game credit is awarded by proximity zone. Because it is skill-based, there are no published ticket totals and no fixed odds — your chances depend on how many people enter and how good your placement is. That means our odds calculator cannot give you a hard number for BOTB the way it can for fixed-odds raffle sites; what you get instead is a genuine element of skill that rewards practice.

Alongside Spot the Ball, BOTB runs conventional prize draws and instant wins — these are drawn by an independent promotional verification service (such as PromoVeritas) using certified random number generator software, which is stronger independent oversight than most raffle sites offer. There is also a BOTB Pass subscription (from £9.99/month across three tiers) granting entries into a subscribers’ competition.

The free entry route

Where a competition permits postal entry, send a handwritten postcard or letter (mechanically produced entries are rejected) to Winvia Entertainment Plc, 2 Plato Place, 72-74 St Dionis Road, London SW6 4TU, with your full name and details matching your BOTB account. One entry per postcard, unlimited separate postcards up to the competition’s entry limit, and it must arrive by post within the promotion period. The terms state each postal entry has the same chance of winning as a paid ticket, and draws are held no earlier than the second business day after close so postal entries can be processed. Note that BOTB’s separate “Free Competitions” category works differently — entries there are granted free (for example on registration) with no postal route.

Reputation: what winners and critics say

When we checked on 28 July 2026, BOTB held a 4.1 “Great” Trustpilot rating from 11,361 reviews — 73% five-star but a chunky 10% one-star, noticeably weaker than Rev Comps or Dream Car Giveaways. The positives are real: winners describe personal phone calls, quick payouts and a slick app, and BOTB’s winner history is long and public.

The recurring complaint — and the main thing to watch — is subscription billing. A consistent stream of one-star reviews describes ticket purchases that turned into recurring monthly charges (typically £19.99) that reviewers found hard to cancel, with customer service difficult to reach when it happened. Reviewers also report app glitches such as basket totals doubling, and that the self-set spending limit can be raised with a single click. BOTB replies to 93% of negative reviews, but the pattern has persisted. Our advice if you enter: untick any subscription option at checkout, check your bank statement after your first purchase, and treat the BOTB Pass as something you deliberately choose, not something you drift into.

Prizes and the 70% cash alternative

This is BOTB’s biggest structural catch: unless a competition states otherwise, the cash alternative is 70% of the prize’s UK retail price, rounded to the nearest £1,000 — win a £100,000 car and take the money, and you get £70,000. Raffle rivals typically advertise a fixed cash figure upfront instead. On the plus side, instant-win cash is paid to UK bank accounts within 21 days, and if a specified instant-win car cannot be sourced within 30 days you get 130% of its stated cash alternative. Car delivery is to UK addresses only; overseas winners must provide a UK address or take the cash.

Pros and cons

Pros

• 27-year track record with years of audited public accounts — unmatched financial transparency
• A dream car winner guaranteed every week, from a 150+ car lineup
• Skill element rewards practice — you are not purely buying luck
• Independent judging panel with a lawyer present; draws verified by an independent service
• Equal-odds postal entry route written plainly into the terms
• Tickets from around 40p

Cons

• Cash alternative is only 70% of the prize’s retail price unless stated otherwise
• Persistent subscription/auto-renewal complaints — check what you are agreeing to at checkout
• No published entry totals — you cannot calculate fixed odds
• 10% one-star Trustpilot share, the highest of the big three operators
• Customer service reported hard to reach when billing goes wrong

Our verdict

BOTB is the most established and institutionally credible operator in this market, and the weekly guaranteed car winner is real — it has been handing over dream cars for two decades. Whether it suits you depends on what you want: if you like the idea that skill and practice can genuinely improve your chances, it is unique; if you want to know your exact odds before you spend, a fixed-odds raffle site tells you more. Go in knowing the 70% cash-alternative rule and keep an eye on the subscription checkbox. You can see the current car lineup on BOTB’s website.

BOTB FAQ

Is BOTB legit?

Yes. BOTB has run since 1999, spent 17 years as a listed company with audited accounts, guarantees a dream car winner every week, and reports over £164m in prizes to more than 900,000 winners. Its judging is overseen by an independent panel with a lawyer present, and non-skill draws are verified by an independent service.

Is BOTB a raffle?

No. The flagship Dream Car Competition is Spot the Ball, a game of skill: an independent judging panel decides where the ball should be, and the closest entry wins. There are no fixed odds or published ticket totals. BOTB also runs conventional prize draws and instant wins alongside it.

What is the catch with BOTB?

Two things to know: the cash alternative is 70% of the prize’s UK retail price unless a competition states otherwise, and many complaints concern ticket purchases converting into recurring monthly subscription charges. Read the checkout carefully and check your first bank statement.

Who owns BOTB?

BOTB is part of Winvia Entertainment plc, an AIM-listed group backed by Teddy Sagi’s Globe Invest, which took Best of the Best private in 2023. Winvia also owns Click Competitions and Rev Comps, making it one of the largest prize-draw groups in the UK.

Dream Car Giveaways

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. We verify ticket prices, odds, ownership and Trustpilot data against live sources each time we update this page. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Dream Car Giveaways is one of the longest-running UK car competition sites, with a payout record few rivals can match: more than £155m in prizes to over 135,000 winners since 2018. It is legitimate, its winners get paid fast, and its ticket prices are among the lowest in the sector. But this is also a business in transition — it was bought by Australian lottery group Jumbo Interactive in October 2025, and a noticeable strand of recent reviews argues the value on offer has slipped since. Here is our full, independent review.

What is Dream Car Giveaways?

Dream Car Giveaways Limited was incorporated in April 2018 and built its name from Droitwich, Worcestershire, growing into one of the UK’s biggest prize competition operators. In October 2025 the business was acquired by Jumbo Interactive, an ASX-listed Australian digital lottery company, and the site now operates as a subsidiary of Jumbo Interactive UK Ltd. Founding director David Andrews remains on the board, but the other founding-era directors stepped down on the day of the deal and were replaced by Jumbo appointees. As with several big names in this sector, the “family business” era is over — UK car competitions consolidated rapidly through 2025 and 2026.

How the competitions work

DCG runs a fixed-odds model: each competition page states its maximum number of entries, draws go ahead on schedule regardless of ticket sales, and ticket numbers are randomly assigned at purchase rather than issued sequentially. Live draws with presenters run on Friday and Sunday nights on the site, Facebook and YouTube using Google’s random number generator; automated draws in between use a server-side random number generator. Instant win competitions pre-allocate prizes to ticket numbers before entries open.

Ticket prices are strikingly low. These were live examples when we checked on 28 July 2026:

Prize	Ticket price
VW Tiguan R-Line + £5,000 (or £28,000 tax-free cash)	£0.07
McLaren 600LT + Audi RS6 + £5,000 (or £215,000 cash)	£0.17
BMW M5 Competition + £3,000 (or £50,000 cash)	£0.06
Tech Instant Win (50,000 prizes)	£0.69
iPhone 17 Pro Max + Apple Watch	£1.99

Low pennies-per-ticket pricing means enormous entry pools, so check the stated maximum entries on each competition page and run the numbers through our free odds calculator before deciding how many tickets make sense. Note that some large “instant win” prize pools include thousands of very small prizes — including Dream Points, the site’s loyalty currency worth roughly 1p per point — so a headline like “50,000 prizes” is not 50,000 cars. Read the prize table on each competition before you judge the value.

The free entry route

DCG offers postal entry: send your competition details, full name, date of birth, postal address, phone number, email and the answer to the competition question to DCG Ltd, PO Box 2050, Pershore, WR10 9FA. You can submit multiple free entries up to the stated per-competition limit, but each one must be posted separately — several entries in one envelope count as a single entry. One quirk worth knowing: postal entries arriving within 48 hours after a competition closes (where it has not sold out) are converted to account credit rather than entered. Unlike some rivals, we could not find an explicit statement in the terms we reviewed that postal entries carry equal odds to paid tickets — the mechanics imply it, but if this matters to you it is worth confirming with DCG directly. Our free postal entry directory compares every major site’s route.

Reputation: what winners and critics say

When we checked on 28 July 2026, DCG held a 4.3 “Excellent” Trustpilot rating from 8,250 reviews — 91% five-star, about 3% one-star — and the team replies to 90% of negative reviews. Winner reviews are consistently strong on the thing that matters most: cash alternatives commonly land in winners’ accounts within an hour to a day, and car handovers are described as smooth.

Two cautions from our reading of recent reviews. First, review volume has dropped sharply — only around 671 reviews in the last twelve months, far fewer than rivals of similar size, which makes the headline rating a somewhat dated signal. Second, a cluster of one-star reviews posted since the Jumbo takeover allege that prize value and odds have worsened, that small Dream Points prizes pad the advertised prize counts, and in some cases that the same names appear among winners repeatedly. We want to be plain about what that last point is: unproven allegations by frustrated reviewers, not established fact — DCG’s draws run on published RNG processes and the company responds to most complaints. But the post-takeover grumbling is real and recurring, and it is the main reason we are watching this site more closely than we used to.

Prizes, cash alternatives and delivery

The terms state there is no cash alternative unless one is listed on the website — in practice most car competitions advertise a stated tax-free cash figure (for example £215,000 instead of the McLaren and Audi pair). Winners have 14 days from first contact to claim a prize; unclaimed prizes are forfeited and redrawn, so keep your contact details current if you enter.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Seven-year track record: £155m+ in prizes to 135,000+ winners since 2018
• Very low ticket prices — often just a few pence per entry
• Fast payouts: cash alternatives frequently paid within a day of winning
• Fixed odds with maximum entries published, and draws that always go ahead
• Live presenter-led draws on Fridays and Sundays using Google’s RNG
• Working free postal entry route

Cons

• Recurring post-takeover complaints about declining prize value and odds
• Big “prize counts” padded with very small Dream Points prizes — read the prize table
• No explicit equal-odds statement for postal entries in the terms we reviewed
• Postal entries arriving late are converted to credit, not entered or returned
• Sharp drop in recent Trustpilot review volume makes reputation harder to read
• 14-day claim window — miss it and the prize is redrawn

Our verdict

Dream Car Giveaways remains one of the UK’s most credible car competition sites on the fundamentals: a long, verifiable payout history, published entry limits, genuinely cheap tickets and quick cash settlements. The open question is what it becomes under Jumbo Interactive. We will keep re-checking the draw structures, prize tables and review patterns, and we will move our score if the value keeps drifting. For now: a solid site to enter — but read each competition’s prize table and maximum entries first, and sense-check your spend with the odds calculator.

Dream Car Giveaways FAQ

Is Dream Car Giveaways legit?

Yes. DCG has operated since 2018 and reports more than £155m in prizes to over 135,000 winners. It holds a 4.3 Trustpilot rating from more than 8,000 reviews, and winner reviews consistently confirm fast payouts. Since October 2025 it has been owned by Jumbo Interactive, an Australian stock-exchange-listed lottery company.

Who owns Dream Car Giveaways?

Jumbo Interactive Limited (ASX: JIN), an Australian digital lottery operator, acquired Dream Car Giveaways in October 2025. The site now operates as a subsidiary of Jumbo Interactive UK Ltd, with founding director David Andrews still on the board.

How do I enter Dream Car Giveaways for free?

Post your competition details, full name, date of birth, address, phone number, email and the answer to the competition question to DCG Ltd, PO Box 2050, Pershore, WR10 9FA. Each free entry must be posted separately, up to the competition’s stated entry limit, and needs to arrive before the competition closes.

Are Dream Car Giveaways draws random?

Live draws on Friday and Sunday nights use Google’s random number generator on stream; automated draws use a server-side random number generator, and instant-win prizes are pre-allocated to randomly assigned ticket numbers. Some recent reviewers have alleged unfairness, but these are unproven claims and no regulator finding supports them.

Rev Comps

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. We verify ticket prices, odds, ownership and Trustpilot data against live sources each time we update this page. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Rev Comps is one of the UK’s biggest car competition sites, and our testing supports its headline claim: it is a legitimate operator with a fixed-odds format, published ticket totals on every draw, and one of the strongest Trustpilot profiles in the sector (4.8 from more than 9,400 reviews when we checked). It is no longer the family-run independent it started as, though — in July 2026 it was bought by Winvia Entertainment plc, the AIM-listed group that also owns BOTB and Click Competitions. Here is our full, independent review.

What is Rev Comps?

Rev Comps launched in May 2019, founded by father-and-son duo Peter and Robbie Savage and run from Devon. It grew into one of the largest vehicle competition businesses in the UK — more than £80m in revenue in its last reported year — giving away cars, motorbikes, vans and cash. By its own count it has produced around 6,500 vehicle winners and three millionaires.

Ownership changed in 2026. On 3 July 2026 the business was acquired for £11.8m by Winvia Entertainment plc, which also owns BOTB and Click Competitions, and Rev Comps now runs on Winvia’s platform. The promoter named in the current terms is Rev Competitions Limited, a Gibraltar-incorporated company, with the contract governed by English law. Day to day the site looks and works much as it did, but marketing descriptions of Rev Comps as “family-run” now describe its history rather than its present.

How Rev Comps competitions work

Rev Comps uses a fixed-odds model: every competition states its maximum number of tickets up front, so you know your exact odds before you spend anything. Draws happen on the advertised date whether or not the competition sells out. Main draws are performed live on Facebook using a ball-spinning machine (with a random number generator as the stated backup), alongside automated draws during the week. Every paid ticket also enters you into free Monday and Thursday bonus draws worth at least £8,000 combined.

These were four of the draws live on the site when we checked on 28 July 2026:

Prize	Ticket price	Total tickets	Odds per ticket
2020 Porsche 992 911 Turbo S + £5,000 (or £100,000 cash)	£4.47	49,999	1 in 49,999
2021 Audi RS6 Avant + £5,000 (or £60,000 cash)	£4.97	24,999	1 in 24,999
2019 Bentley Continental GT W12 + £5,000 (or £65,000 cash)	£2.27	69,999	1 in 69,999
2024 KTM 790 Adventure	£19.97	499	1 in 499

What the odds actually mean

Publishing ticket totals is the single biggest transparency win in this sector, and Rev Comps does it on every draw. It also lets you do the maths the marketing does not. Take the Bentley draw above: if all 69,999 tickets sell at £2.27, the promoter takes roughly £159,000 against a £65,000 cash alternative. That kind of margin is normal across the industry — it is how these businesses exist — but it is worth understanding before you buy a long strip of tickets. The smaller draws often represent better value: the KTM competition above offers 1 in 499 odds, a hundred times better than the flagship Porsche draw. Run any Rev Comps draw through our free odds calculator to see your real chance with multiple tickets before you spend.

The free entry route

Like all legal UK prize competitions, Rev Comps offers a free postal entry route, and its terms state free entries have the same chance of winning as paid ones. To use it, send an unenclosed postcard to: Rev Competitions Limited, PO Box 613, Torquay, TQ1 9NF. Include your account email, full name, address, date of birth, phone number and the name of the competition. The limits matter: one entry per postcard (multiple postcards stuffed into one envelope count as a single entry), and your card must arrive at least 24 hours before the draw — a tight window on fast-turnaround draws, so post early. Our free postal entry directory covers the equivalent routes for every major UK site.

Reputation: what winners and critics say

When we checked on 28 July 2026, Rev Comps held a 4.8 “Excellent” Trustpilot rating from 9,462 reviews, with 92% five-star and around 3% one-star — the strongest profile of the major car raffle sites we track. The consistent positives: cash prizes commonly paid within about 24 hours, cars delivered by Rev’s own drivers across the UK and Northern Ireland within days, and a well-liked team.

On the critical side, most one-star reviews are simply from entrants who did not win, which tells you little. Two things are worth knowing, though. In July 2026 a batch of bonus site credit expired early or disappeared from accounts — the company says it fixed this the same day. And the company’s public replies to critical reviews can be unusually robust; in at least one case it announced it was closing the reviewer’s account in its reply. Prizes get paid, but do not expect a soft touch if you complain publicly.

Prizes, cash alternatives and delivery

Cash alternatives are stated per competition in the listing itself (for example £100,000 instead of the Porsche). Note that the general terms contain no blanket right to a cash alternative — if the listing does not offer one, assume the prize is as described and non-transferable. Prize delivery covers the UK, Ireland, Isle of Man and Channel Islands only, and prizes cannot be exported outside those territories.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Fixed odds with ticket totals published on every draw — genuine transparency
• Guaranteed draw dates: draws happen whether or not tickets sell out
• Excellent payout record — cash typically within 24 hours, cars delivered within days
• 4.8 Trustpilot from 9,400+ reviews, the best of the big car raffle sites
• Free twice-weekly bonus draws attached to every paid ticket
• Clear free postal entry route with equal odds stated in the terms

Cons

• No longer independent or family-run — now a Winvia Entertainment brand, with the promoter incorporated in Gibraltar
• No blanket cash-alternative right in the terms — only what each listing states
• Flagship draws carry long odds (1 in 50,000+) — the value is usually in smaller draws
• Postal entries need to land 24 hours before the draw, which is tight for short competitions
• Combative public responses to some critical reviews

Our verdict

Rev Comps earns its place near the top of our leaderboard. The fundamentals that matter — published odds, guaranteed draws, fast and verifiable payouts, a working free entry route — are all in place, and its reputation among actual winners is excellent. The 2026 Winvia takeover changes the character of the business more than the experience of using it, but we will be watching whether ticket pricing and draw structures shift under the new owner, and we will update this review if they do. If you enter, do it with your eyes open: check the published ticket total, run it through the odds calculator, and treat it as entertainment spending — never as an investment.

Rev Comps FAQ

Is Rev Comps legit?

Yes. Rev Comps has been running since May 2019, publishes its ticket totals, draws live on Facebook, and reports around 6,500 vehicle winners to date. Its 4.8 Trustpilot rating from more than 9,400 reviews is the strongest of the major UK car competition sites, and winner reviews consistently confirm prizes are delivered.

Who owns Rev Comps now?

Since 3 July 2026, Rev Comps has been owned by Winvia Entertainment plc, the AIM-listed group that also owns BOTB and Click Competitions. It was founded in 2019 by Peter and Robbie Savage, who sold the business in an £11.8m deal.

How do I enter Rev Comps for free?

Send an unenclosed postcard with your account email, full name, address, date of birth, phone number and the competition name to Rev Competitions Limited, PO Box 613, Torquay, TQ1 9NF. One entry per postcard, arriving at least 24 hours before the draw. The terms state free entries have the same chance of winning as paid tickets.

What are the odds of winning a Rev Comps competition?

Every competition publishes its maximum ticket count, so odds are knowable: recent examples ranged from 1 in 499 on a motorbike draw to 1 in 69,999 on a flagship car draw. Use our free raffle odds calculator to work out your exact chance with any number of tickets.

Elite Competitions

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. We verify ticket prices, odds, ownership and Trustpilot data against live sources each time we update this page. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Elite Competitions is the Blackpool operator that turned a 2015 Facebook motorbike raffle into one of the biggest prize draw businesses in the UK — around £100m a year in turnover, a Dragons’ Den appearance, Blackpool FC shirt sponsorship, and by its own count more than £129m awarded and 18 millionaires created. It is a legitimate, fast-paying operator with genuinely entrant-friendly terms in places — and a marketing machine with a couple of habits you should know about, plus two historic ASA rulings on its record. Here is our full, independent review.

What is Elite Competitions?

The operating company is Hydro Solutions Fylde Ltd, incorporated May 2015 and still owned and directed by founder Alex Beckett, who started the business raffling a motorbike on Facebook and pitched it on Dragons’ Den in 2018 (offers received, no deal completed). Unlike Rev Comps, Dream Car Giveaways and 7days Performance — all bought by large gaming groups in 2025–26 — Elite remains founder-owned and independent, which now makes it the biggest independent operator we track.

How the competitions work

Elite’s model is pennies-per-ticket, huge-entry draws with published per-competition entry caps and percentage-sold bars. Live examples when we checked on 28 July 2026: £80,000 cash at 3p a ticket; a Ferrari F8 Tributo plus a Richard Mille watch plus £100,000 at 5p (cash alternative £325,000); a £1.85m “Dream Home Bundle” at 19p (cash alternative £1.3m); and a Mercedes G63 at 3p. Daily draws run every night at 10pm. Main draws are decided by a ball machine streamed live on YouTube and Facebook, with winners often phoned or FaceTimed on stream. Instant-win numbers are randomly selected before a competition opens, then encrypted and hidden from staff — a sensible integrity control. The “Spin to Win” wheel is a separate fixed-odds product with a predetermined number of spins and prizes; treat it as an arcade game, not a raffle.

With entry pools that can run to hundreds of thousands, check the entry cap on each listing and run your numbers through our odds calculator before buying a big bundle.

The free entry route

Send an open postcard to Elite Competitions, Unit 6, 7 & 8 Turing Court, Hawking Place, Bispham, Blackpool, FY2 0QW, naming the competition, confirming you have read the terms, and including your full contact details. Bulk entries in one envelope are not accepted, hand-delivered cards are refused, and you can send as many separate postcards as the per-account entry limit allows. The terms state plainly that each postal entry has the same chance of winning — including instant wins — as a paid entry.

Reputation, and two ASA rulings you should know about

When we checked on 28 July 2026, Elite held a 4.5 “Excellent” Trustpilot rating from 16,950 reviews (84% five-star, 7% one-star) and replies to 99% of negative reviews, usually within a day. Winners praise the professional live draws and fast payouts — the biggest documented being Blackpool electrician Jake Emery’s £750,000 tax-free cash win.

The complaints cluster in three areas: the Spin to Win wheel mostly paying trivial amounts (one reviewer bought 999 spins and won 10p); unsolicited “Elite Club” telemarketing calls pushing subscriptions; and difficulty cancelling subscriptions without contacting support. On the record side, the ASA upheld complaints against the company twice — in September 2019 and May 2020 — the latter covering a free-entry route that was not prominently disclosed, unjustified closing-date extensions, and a fallback prize of 70% of ticket sales that was not a reasonable equivalent of the advertised cash prize. Those rulings are five-plus years old and the current terms bar the practices involved (draws are no longer extendable, the free route is documented, and winners can choose the full prize), but they belong in any honest picture of the company.

Prizes and cash alternatives

Elite’s cash-alternative clause is one of the most entrant-friendly we have seen: every prize winner may choose either the full prize or a reasonably equivalent cash alternative set by the promoter — and the advertised alternatives are substantial (£325,000 on the Ferrari bundle, £1.3m on the dream home). Delivery is free to Great Britain addresses and prizes are stored free for up to 30 days. The main catch: you forfeit if Elite cannot reach you within five working days of the competition ending, so keep your details current.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Ten-year track record, founder-owned, ~£129m in prizes awarded (company figures)
• Winner’s choice of full prize or cash alternative, written into the terms
• Very cheap tickets (1p–19p typical) with published entry caps and sold bars
• Ball-machine draws streamed live; instant-win numbers encrypted pre-draw
• Explicit equal-odds postal entry route
• Responds to virtually all negative reviews within a day

Cons

• Two upheld ASA rulings (2019 and 2020) — historic, but on the record
• Spin to Win offers poor value and drives a steady stream of complaints
• Telemarketing calls pushing the Elite Club subscription annoy entrants
• Subscription cancellation requires contacting support
• Five-working-day claim window before forfeit

Our verdict

Elite Competitions is a credible, fast-paying operator with the strongest cash-alternative terms of the big sites and real transparency on entry caps. Skip the Spin to Win wheel, say no to the Elite Club calls unless you actually want it, and the core draws are among the best-run in the sector. As the last big independent, it is also the operator with the most to prove as its rivals get absorbed into listed gaming groups — we will keep this page updated.

Elite Competitions FAQ

Is Elite Competitions legit?

Yes. Elite has run since 2015, streams ball-machine draws live, replies to almost all complaints, and holds a 4.5 Trustpilot rating from nearly 17,000 reviews. Its biggest documented winner took £750,000 in tax-free cash. Two ASA rulings from 2019–2020 were upheld against it, but the practices involved are barred by its current terms.

How do I enter Elite Competitions for free?

Send an open postcard naming the competition, confirming you have read the terms, with your full contact details, to Elite Competitions, Unit 6, 7 & 8 Turing Court, Hawking Place, Bispham, Blackpool, FY2 0QW. One entry per postcard, no bulk envelopes, no hand delivery. The terms state postal entries have the same odds as paid entries.

Who owns Elite Competitions?

Elite is operated by Hydro Solutions Fylde Ltd and remains owned by founder Alex Beckett, who started it in 2015 — making it the largest founder-owned independent in a sector where most big rivals were acquired by listed gaming groups in 2025–26.

Aspire Competitions

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. No competition site pays to appear on Best Car Raffles.

Aspire Competitions is a Somerset operator with the strongest draw-integrity credential we have seen on a raffle-style site: its random number generator is independently certified by GLI, the same testing house used by regulated gambling operators. Add a 100% reply rate to negative reviews and signatory status on the government’s voluntary prize-draw code — which Aspire says it helped develop — and this is one of the more institutionally serious mid-size operators. Here is our independent review.

Who runs Aspire and how it works

Aspire Competitions Ltd was incorporated in June 2019 and is based in Yeovil, with James Ovenden as its director and controlling shareholder. Draws are performed with the GLI-certified RNG and streamed on Facebook Live, with the winner phoned during the draw. Entry caps per person are displayed on each competition, tickets start from about 25p, and around 30 competitions run at once — recent examples included a VW camper “Family Freedom Package” with a £95,000 cash alternative, a Land Rover Defender 110 with two Sea-Doos, a Rolex GMT-Master II with a £14,000 alternative, and straight cash draws. Instant wins come from a fixed, disclosed prize pool and instant-win entries still qualify for the end prize.

The free entry route

Register an account first, then post a card with your name, Aspire account number, address, date of birth, email, phone and the competition name to Aspire Competitions Ltd, 12 Oxford Road, Yeovil, BA21 5HR — one entry per postcard, arriving before the close. Postal entries are allocated a random draw number, show up in your account history (a nice verification touch), and get the same instant-win opportunities as paid entries.

Reputation

Aspire holds a 4.6 Trustpilot rating from 29,680 reviews (87% five-star, 2% one-star) with over 4,000 reviews in the past year, and it replies to every negative review, usually within a day. Notably, its one-star column lacks the complaint clusters that dog some rivals — no recurring postal-entry or rigged-draw allegations; most gripes are “I never win” frustration and marketing volume, including SMS and email opt-outs that take more effort than they should. Winners report cash alternatives in their bank the next day. Two small print points: entry is limited to residents of England, Wales and Scotland (Northern Ireland and Ireland are excluded, despite broad marketing), and winners must respond within 28 days and pass ID checks before a prize is released.

Pros and cons

Pros

• GLI-certified random number generator — the strongest draw-integrity credential in our reviews
• Replies to 100% of negative reviews, typically within 24 hours
• DCMS voluntary code signatory, and involved in developing the code
• Postal entries visible in your account history — verifiable free entry
• Fast payouts and substantial advertised cash alternatives

Cons

• England, Wales and Scotland only — NI and Ireland excluded
• Heavy marketing volume with fiddly opt-outs
• Ticket prices on some draws are only visible after clicking through
• ID checks and a 28-day response window before prizes are released

Our verdict

Aspire pairs mid-size prizes with big-operator process discipline: certified randomness, verifiable free entries, and complaint handling most rivals do not match. If you live in Great Britain it belongs on your shortlist — as ever, check each draw’s entry cap against our odds calculator before you spend.

7 Day Performance

Review last fact-checked: 28 July 2026. This page contains affiliate links to 7days Performance — if you sign up through them we may earn a commission at no cost to you. This never affects our scores: see how we make money.

7days Performance is one of the UK’s largest car competition operators — a Norfolk business that grew to nearly £100m in annual revenue on the back of cheap tickets, multiple live draw nights a week and a strong payout reputation. Like much of this sector in 2026, it has just changed hands: German lottery group ZEAL Network agreed to buy its parent company in July 2026. Here is our full, independent review.

What is 7days Performance?

Founded in February 2018 by Ross Youngman and George Sapey and run from Norwich, 7days Performance Limited became the flagship of the SevenCanyon group (which also runs Redline Competitions), with group revenue of £98.3m in the year to March 2025. In July 2026, ZEAL Network SE — the German stock-listed lottery operator — agreed to acquire SevenCanyon for an initial £33.8m, and the founders stepped down from the board with ZEAL appointees taking over. As with Rev Comps (bought by Winvia) and Dream Car Giveaways (bought by Jumbo Interactive), the founder era is over and a listed gaming group now sets the direction.

How the competitions work

Tickets are cheap — typically pennies up to about £1, with main car draws often in the 20–50p range (a Land Rover Defender draw in July 2026 cost entrants 22p a ticket). Ticket numbers are allocated randomly, and winners are drawn live on Facebook and YouTube several nights a week, using Google’s random number generator for most draws and physical lottery ball machines for the biggest prizes, with automated draws for smaller ones. Draws go ahead on schedule whether or not a competition sells out — no rollovers, no extensions. Instant wins are pre-assigned to ticket numbers, and a daily free draw runs through the app.

Recent winner outcomes give a sense of scale: a July 2026 house winner took a £450,000 cash alternative, a campervan winner took cash and was paid by the Monday, and a Suzuki Jimny winner reported a £42,000 cash alternative in their account within 24 hours. Check each competition’s stated entry cap and run it through our odds calculator before you buy a strip of tickets.

The free entry route

Send an unenclosed postcard with your full name, email address, phone number, full address and the competition name to 7days Performance, PO Box 100, Attleborough, NR17 2YU, to arrive before the competition closes; free entries are added to your account. One honesty note: 7days’ terms pages are rendered in a way our tools could not capture directly, so we sourced these postal details from their terms as quoted by third-party guides — double-check the current terms on their site before relying on the route, as per-postcard limits may apply. Our free postal entry directory covers every major site’s route.

Reputation: what winners and critics say

When we checked on 28 July 2026, 7days Performance held a 4.5 “Excellent” Trustpilot rating from 5,363 reviews (89% five-star, 6% one-star), with the company replying to 90% of negative reviews. The standout positive is payout speed: winner after winner reports cash alternatives landing within 24 hours to four days, and good personal contact from the team.

The recent criticisms are worth knowing. In mid-July 2026 the YouTube streams for two draw nights were missing, prompting “was it really drawn live?” complaints — the company said the draws ran on Facebook amid technical issues. Several reviewers have also objected to marketing wording: app notifications like “You’ve been chosen!” that turn out to be free-entry prompts, and bonus offers whose conditions only appeared in the small print. And one reviewer reported a small prize (a silver coin) still undelivered three months after winning, saying they had complained to the ASA. None of this dents the core payout record, but the marketing style is pushier than some rivals.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Excellent payout speed — cash alternatives consistently paid within days
• Cheap tickets (often 20–50p for main car draws)
• Guaranteed draws with no rollovers or extensions, several live nights a week
• Ball machines for big draws + RNG for the rest, drawn on stream
• Substantial cash alternatives (documented examples from £42,000 to £450,000)
• Now backed by a listed European lottery group with deep pockets

Cons

• Pushy marketing notifications that can read like win alerts when they are not
• July 2026 live-stream gaps dented confidence in draw visibility
• Terms pages are hard to access and some free-entry details (per-postcard limits, equal-odds wording) are not easily verifiable
• New ownership means the formula could change — we are watching pricing and draw structures

Our verdict

On the fundamentals that matter most — do draws happen, do winners get paid, and how fast — 7days Performance is one of the strongest operators we track. The irritations are real but mostly cosmetic: marketing tone and stream reliability rather than payout integrity. As with every recently acquired operator, we will re-check pricing and draw structures under ZEAL’s ownership and update this review. You can see the current draws on 7days Performance’s website — and whatever you enter, know your odds first.

7days Performance FAQ

Is 7days Performance legit?

Yes. It has run since 2018, grew to nearly £100m in group revenue, draws live several nights a week, and its Trustpilot reviews consistently confirm fast payouts — including a £450,000 house cash alternative paid in July 2026. It holds a 4.5 rating from more than 5,300 reviews.

Who owns 7days Performance?

In July 2026, German lottery operator ZEAL Network SE agreed to acquire SevenCanyon Limited — the parent of 7days Performance, Redline Competitions and UK Carp Competitions — for an initial £33.8m. Founders Ross Youngman and George Sapey stepped down from the board on 9 July 2026.
