UK Raffle Website FAQs

Common questions about UK competition and raffle websites, answered by our reviewers.

Are UK raffle websites legal?

Yes. UK raffle and competition websites operate legally under the Gambling Act 2005 or as skill-based competitions. Regulations vary — that’s why we independently review each one.

Look for a UK company registration number, a verifiable Trustpilot profile, publicly broadcast draw results, and clear terms and conditions. Our reviews cover all of these in detail.

Raffles are purely chance-based, while competitions often include a skill-based element (like answering a question). UK law treats them differently, affecting how they must operate.

This depends entirely on the site’s terms. Most legitimate sites will issue refunds for cancelled draws, but policies vary. We check refund policies as part of every review.

Most sites require participants to be 18 or older, although this is not a legal requirement for non-gambling competitions. Always check the individual site’s terms before entering.

Compare the ticket price against the prize value and the total tickets available. Our reviews include min ticket prices and draw frequency to help you make an informed comparison.
