Frequently Asked Questions About Raffle Websites
How long does it take to build a raffle website?
The timeline can vary depending on the complexity of features you need, but typically, we aim to have a basic functional raffle website ready within 2-4 weeks after we’ve gathered all your content and requirements. We’re pretty quick on our feet!
Are raffle websites legal in the UK?
Yes, running online raffles or prize draws for a fee is generally legal in the UK, but it’s crucial to comply with Gambling Commission regulations (for lotteries) or advertising standards (for prize draws where no purchase is necessary for entry). We always recommend you seek independent legal advice to ensure full compliance for your specific raffle type.
Can I manage the raffle myself after the website is built?
Absolutely! We design our raffle websites with user-friendly administration panels, allowing you to easily manage prizes, update draws, view participants, and run reports without needing any technical expertise. We’ll give you a full handover and training, too.
What about payment processing?
We don’t process payments ourselves, but we integrate leading, secure payment gateways into your site. We’ll guide you through the process of setting up your own merchant account with a provider that suits your needs, ensuring all transactions are handled directly and securely between your participants and your chosen payment processor.
