See how competition businesses, brands, and charities are using ByteStack to run successful, compliant prize competitions.
Elite Competitions
How a startup competition business scaled from zero to thousands of entries per draw using ByteStack's full platform.
Challenge
Elite Competitions wanted to launch a prize competition business but faced the complexity of UK compliance requirements, payment processing, and building a platform that could handle traffic spikes during draw periods.
Solution
Using ByteStack's full platform, Elite Competitions launched their first competition within weeks. Built-in compliance tools, DNA Payments integration, and automated draw management meant they could focus entirely on prizes and marketing.
“ByteStack gave us everything we needed to launch quickly and with confidence. The compliance tools alone saved us months of legal work.”
— James Wilson, Founder
Competition Business
AutoPrize UK
A luxury car dealership turned unsold inventory into a high-engagement prize competition that generated new leads and revenue.
Challenge
AutoPrize UK had premium vehicles sitting on the forecourt at the end of the financial year. Traditional discounting was eroding brand value, and they needed a creative way to generate revenue and capture new customer data.
Solution
Using the ByteStack plugin, AutoPrize embedded a prize competition directly on their existing website. A BMW M4 became the star prize, with ticket bundles driving high average order values and email capture growing their CRM.
“We turned a depreciating asset into a marketing event that generated more qualified leads than six months of traditional advertising.”
— Sarah Chen, Marketing Director

Children First Trust
A national children's charity used the ByteStack plugin to run their first ever prize draw, exceeding all fundraising targets.
Challenge
Children First Trust wanted to diversify their fundraising beyond traditional methods. Prize draws were appealing but the regulatory requirements and technical setup seemed daunting for a small team.
Solution
The ByteStack plugin's charity mode made it simple. Built-in donation messaging, a 'where funds go' section, and optional donation add-ons at checkout aligned perfectly with their mission. The hosted landing page meant no website changes were needed.
“The charity-specific features made donors feel confident their money was going to the right place. We'll definitely be running more prize draws.”
— Rachel Moore, Head of Fundraising
Charity
Premier Prizes
An established competition brand migrated to ByteStack for better compliance tooling and saw immediate improvements in trust and sales.
Challenge
Premier Prizes had been running competitions on a custom-built platform that was struggling with compliance requirements, payment reliability, and scaling during peak periods. Customer trust was being affected.
Solution
Migration to ByteStack brought enterprise-grade compliance tools, reliable DNA Payments processing, and infrastructure that handled their busiest draw periods without issues. Published winner pages and audit logs rebuilt customer trust.
“Moving to ByteStack was the best decision we made. Our customers trust the process now, and that trust directly translates to higher sales.”
— Mark Thompson, Managing Director
