Three steps

From picking a prize to picking your numbers

  1. Step one

    Pick your competition

    Every live draw shows its prize, entry price, how many entries are left and the exact closing time. Entries start at 29p and you can enter as many times as the limit allows.

  2. Step two

    Answer and choose numbers

    One multiple choice question qualifies your entry, as required by the Gambling Act 2005. Then pick your numbers yourself or take a lucky dip.

  3. Step three

    Watch the draw live

    Draws run on Facebook Live at the published time. The winning number is read out on camera, and cash lands within 48 hours.

Free postal entry

You can always enter for free

Send an unenclosed postcard with your name, address, email, date of birth, the competition you are entering and your answer to the question. One entry per postcard, same chance of winning as a paid entry.

Cash alternative

Take the prize or take the cash

On vehicle and luxury draws you can take a cash alternative instead of the prize. The amount is stated on the competition page before you enter, so there are no surprises after the draw.

Cash alternatives are paid by bank transfer within 48 hours of you confirming your choice.

Playing safe

Limits, and 18+ only

Every competition has a maximum number of entries per person, shown on the competition page. You must be 18 or over and resident in the UK to enter.

Be GambleAware. If competitions stop being fun, set a spend limit in your account or contact us to close it.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Anything else, email info@dinocompetitions.co.uk and we reply the same day.

No. Our competitions are skill-based prize competitions, fully compliant with the Gambling Act 2005. Every entry includes a multiple choice question that must be answered correctly to qualify.

The full entry list is published when entries close, and the number is generated on camera during the live stream. Recordings stay on our Facebook page so anyone can check a past draw.

An incorrect answer does not qualify for the draw. You can enter again with the correct answer while entries are still open.

Yes. Pick from the number grid on the competition page, or hit lucky dip and we will assign the next available numbers.

The draw still goes ahead on the published closing date. Every competition is drawn whether or not all entries are sold.
