Frequently asked questions

How does it work?

When you subscribe, you’re automatically entered into the next four consecutive weekly raffle draws.

We host our raffle live on TikTok every Saturday at 9pm on @raffle.man.

  • After you first subscribe, you’ll receive your ticket numbers within 10 minutes.
  • For weeks 2–4, you’ll receive your ticket numbers every Sunday at 9am, ready for the following Saturday’s draw.
  • In week 5, your tickets are issued at the same time of day you originally subscribed, as this is when your subscription renews and secures your next four weeks of entries.
  • For example, if you first subscribed on Thursday at 5pm, you’ll receive your week-5 tickets on Thursday at 5pm.

This cycle then repeats in the same way for as long as your subscription remains active.

As long as you’re entitled to a draw, you’ll always receive your tickets before the draw takes place.

How is the winner selected?

On Saturday night at 9pm sharp, we extract a full list of all ticket numbers. We upload this to a random number generator and the winner is declared.

How do I enter?

Choose the amount you wish to purchase, click on the product and click ‘Buy Now’. On the subsequent page you will need to enter your contact and billing information to complete your order.

What if I subscribed for 1 month then cancelled or cancelled mid-month?

If you just subscribed for 1 month and cancelled, then you’ll be entered into the next 4 weeks of raffles. A monthly subscription entitles you to 4 weeks worth of raffles with the amount of tickets you subscribed for.

What if I subscribe just after the live draw at 9:05pm Saturday night?

You will not be entered into the draw for that Saturday night as the draw time has already passed and you will be entered into the upcoming Saturday nights draw at 9pm instead.

How is each week’s prize pot determined?

Every month, 40% of total revenue goes directly into the main prize pot. That pot is then split evenly across our weekly draws.

The remaining revenue covers the real costs of running the platform:

  • Marketing, ads and customer acquisition cost
  • Staff wages (including editors, production, clippers, and admin)
  • Payment processing fees
  • VAT (20%) and corporation tax (25%)
  • Camera equipment, software, travel and transport
  • Additional prizes, giveaways, and public competitions
  • Live stream prize money and audience challenges

Running this properly costs far more than most people realise — like any real business, it also needs to be profitable to be sustainable long-term.

How can I increase my chances of winning?

To increase your probability of winning, you need to buy more tickets. Keep in mind that every number in the draw has an equal probability of being chosen as the winning number. Never spend money that you can't afford to lose.

If I win, is the money tax free?

Yes, the money is completely tax free if you are in the UK & Ireland. If elsewhere, check with your country’s rules regarding winning money.

How can I view my ticket numbers?

You will receive an email within 10 minutes after purchasing your ticket numbers, and consecutive weeks thereafter you’ll receive an email with your numbers on Sunday morning at 9am, until the 5th week when you resubscribe where you’ll receive your ticket numbers at the same time you initially subscribed. You can also log into your account and check your active and past tickets numbers.

If I win, how long will it take to receive the prize pot?

Within 5 days or much sooner, we will wire you the money straight to your bank account. Usually, we will send it that same night of the draw.

How much are the winnings each week?

You can see the current prize pot amount for this upcoming week on the home page which shows the current prize pot live being counted up. The pot will keep going up from there until draw time at 9pm Saturday night. The prize pot amount will be confirmed at 9pm on Saturday night. The prize pot amount each week is in constant change based on how many subscribers we have.

Where can I watch each live draw?

We host our live draw on tiktok live at 9pm on Saturday night.

What is the likelihood of winning?

Your chances of winning depend on the total number of active subscribers. As more people join, the prize pot grows — which means the odds of winning decrease slightly, but the reward for the winner increases significantly. In short: more subscribers = a bigger prize, even though competition is higher. For example, if there are 1,000 subscribers, one winner is selected from 1,000 entries for that week’s prize pot. As the community grows, the prize grows with it.

How old do I have to be to enter?

To enter you must be 18 years or older.

How are tickets distributed?

All tickets will be emailed to Entrants. Ticket numbers will be randomly generated. Anyone not receiving their ticket within 24 hours of purchase (or 7 days in the case of postal entries) should first check their Spam/Junk folders. If the ticket has still not arrived, they can email rafflemancomps@gmail.com to request a duplicate email.

Can I play outside of the UK & Ireland?

Yes, you can play our Competitions from anywhere in the World. We would recommend checking the law in the respective country before entering.

How will I be contacted if I win?

You will be contacted by telephone immediately during the live draw - so if you get a phone call at around 9pm from a random number, it could be us :). We will try ringing the number 10 times to see if you answer. If there is no answer or an incorrect number on your account we will contact you by email.

How can I trust RaffleMan?

We do our draws on livestream fully transparently showing the full process. We’re in this for the long game. You can find our glowing reviews on our Trustpilot and we post to our winners on our social media and call them live on our livestream.
