1. Treat entries as entertainment
Only spend money you can comfortably afford to lose. A prize draw is uncertain by nature. Do not treat a possible prize as income, savings, an investment or a solution to financial pressure.
2. Set a personal budget before entering
Decide in advance what you can afford for a day, week or month and stop when you reach that figure. Do not increase your budget because you did not win, because a competition is nearly sold out or because you have seen someone else win.
3. Do not borrow to enter
Do not use rent, mortgage, bill, food or essential household money. Avoid borrowing, using credit you cannot clear comfortably or selling essential items in order to buy entries.
4. Avoid chasing losses
Buying more entries does not guarantee a win and a previous loss does not make a future win “due”. Each eligible ticket has the chance described by the competition and past outcomes do not promise a future result.
5. Take breaks
If entering stops feeling enjoyable, take a break. You can contact support to ask for account suspension or closure. During a requested suspension we should not use that period to encourage you to return through direct promotional contact.
6. Marketing choices
You can opt out of promotional email or other direct marketing at any time. Security, order, draw, prize and important account messages may still be sent where necessary to provide the service.
7. Spend limits
GiveawaysZone is working to align product controls with the 2026 Great Britain voluntary code for prize-draw operators, including meaningful customer spending limits and a cooling-off period before an increased limit takes effect. Until a self-service control is available in your account, contact support if you want us to restrict or suspend participation.
8. If you are worried about your behaviour
Stop entering and talk to someone you trust. Specialist UK services such as GamCare and NHS gambling-harms support can also provide confidential help even where the activity causing concern is a prize competition rather than licensed gambling.
9. Parents and shared devices
Keep login and payment details away from children and do not allow anyone under the minimum age to use your account. If you think an underage person has entered using your details, contact us promptly.
10. Contact us
Use the website support-ticket system to request help, suspension or account closure.
