1. General Description

The Entry Form Giveaway application will allow you to run a random draw among all the users who have completed a registration form, which you can customize with all the information that you need. You will be able to do the draw automatically and randomly among all the users who complete the registration form, in order to choose the number of winners and alternates. After conducting the draw, you will obtain a certificate of validity to give transparency to the draw.

2. How is the user registration process

What will the user experience be like? The promotion is made up of different pages that the user will find when interacting with the promotion to participate, such as: the initial welcome page, the registration page, where the user will register with their data, the final page, etc. As a whole, the different pages will make up the structure of the promotion and the flow of participation that the user will follow to complete the promotional mechanics of the promotion.

In particular, in an Entry form giveaway, as an administrator you can choose between two different types of registrations:

2.1. Single Participation

This registration modality consists of creating a single registration form. Users will fill it out only once and will be automatically entered into the prize draw.

This template is recommended for:

• Collecting basic information from each user just once.
• Example 1: Entries in a one-time prize draw.
• Example 2: Registration to access exclusive content.

2.2. Multiple participations

With this modality, first you'll need to set up an identification form that the users will fill out only the first time. Then, you'll need to configure a second form to collect the data the user must submit with each new participation.

This template is recommended for:

• Collecting data multiple times from the same user.
• Example 1: Logging sales made during the last month.
• Example 2: Recording sports achievements over time.

Note: The "Multiple participations" template is only available in the Premium and White Label versions of the platform.

4. Set up the registration form

In order to participate in the Entry form giveaway, users must register by filling in the registration form with the requested data.

This page is designed to collect the user's personal data and manage legal consents: terms and conditions, privacy policy, and, if applicable, subscriptions to newsletters or other permissions.

This form will be completed by the user only the first time they access the promotion.

To do this, go to the Editor > Pages > Registration Form, to customize the fields that you want to ask users to be able to participate:

Check the tutorial where we explain how to configure the promotion registration form.

Do you need to collect user data multiple times?

If you need to request new registration data from users each time they participate, you must use the "Multiple participations" template, which allows you to set up a second form that users will need to complete with each new entry.

In the following video, we show you how to customize this second form to request additional information with each new participation:

5. Create the prize

The next step is to create the prize for the giveaway. In the "Entry form giveaway" application the prize will be assigned "By random drawing", which means that you'll be able to select the winners of the prize with a random draw from among all the participants, or among a segment of participants. You can select participants with a filter based on any criterion you choose.

To create your "Random Draw" prize, follow this tutorial for all the available settings and customization options.

6. Customize the design and finish the settings

Once you have configured the Entry form giveaway, the next step is to finish the configuration of the other options of the promotion, such as customizing the design template with your own colors and texts, introducing the legal bases, the viral content settings, etc. 

Check the tutorial to finish the configuration and customization of your promotion.

7. Activate the final giveaway

When the participation period ends, it's time to assign prizes to the winners. In the "Entry form giveaway" app, you've created a prize "By random draw" assignment. This means that when the promotion ends, we can use the Winners tool to select the winners. You can run the draw among all participants, or within a segment of participants.

To do this, go to the “Winners” section of the menu, on the left-hand side of the main promotion management page:

In this section, you'll see the prize that you've created for your promotion, together with the tools to manage it. Here you can:

1. Activate the giveaway to assign the prize to the winner.
2. Publish the prize winners on the prizes page.
3. Share the result on your social media channels.

Follow this tutorial for a step-by-step guide through the process of running the contest and assigning prizes to the winners.

When you have selected the winners, you can use the email platform to communicate with them about their prizes, and to thank all participants for joining in.
