What your customers see

Entering Is Quick, on Any Phone

Choose how each competition sells: customers pick their own numbers, or get random ones at checkout.

Number picker and lucky dip

Customers tap the numbers they want, with a key for available, picked, in your basket and taken. Lucky dip picks free numbers for them. Big competitions split into tabs, and letter tickets (A1, B1...) get a tab per letter.

Skill questions

Set one question for the whole site or one per competition. Choose whether the answer must be right before buying, how many tries, and a time limit.

Ticket bundles and the range slider

Quick buttons for 5, 10 or 25 tickets, each with its own discount and a Save tag. Or a slider that shows the bundle prices as you drag.

A countdown to every draw

Each competition page counts down to its draw. The timer takes on your site's look, the same as every other part of Ticket Machine. Once someone has entered, the page also shows their ticket numbers and how many more they can buy.

Two ways to win

A Main Draw, With Instant Wins on Top

Every competition has a draw at the end. Add instant wins and chosen ticket numbers win a prize the moment they are bought, so every order has a chance.

Main draw

A random ticket is drawn when the competition closes, and the winner is emailed.
Set more than one winner, and stop anyone winning twice.
Or draw it yourself: pick the winning ticket by hand for a live-streamed draw.
If the minimum doesn't sell, there is no draw. Relist it automatically or refund it.

Instant wins

Choose the winning ticket numbers and their prizes before you go live.
Prizes can be a product, a discount code, site credit or free tickets.
Prize groups put one prize on many numbers in one go.
With the CompKit Game Engine, each win is revealed through a game.

Live draws

Draw Live, on Every Page of Your Site

Stream your draw from YouTube or Facebook and it plays in a small player on every page, so nobody has to leave your site to watch.

Go live in one click: switch Live now on, or use the Go live button in the admin bar at the top of every page.
YouTube or Facebook: set your YouTube channel once and the player shows whatever you stream, with nothing to change each draw.
A player customers control: bottom left or right, bigger or smaller, or closed. It switches itself off after the hours you set.
A next live draw strip with a countdown, on every page or just the home page.
Recordings beside the winner: paste the video link into the competition after the draw, and it shows on the competition and on a results page of every finished draw.

Straight answers

Ticket Machine Questions

How do I get CompKit Ticket Machine?

It comes set up on every CompKit website, alongside the Game Engine and CompKit Themes. For a site you run yourself, download Ticket Machine, install it on WordPress with WooCommerce, and start a free 7-day trial from its Licence screen. After that it is £14.99 a month or £149 a year, and the key goes in by itself.

What happens if a competition doesn't sell its minimum?

It is marked as missed its minimum and nobody is drawn. You can relist it automatically or refund it.

Is the draw automatic?

If you want it to be. Automatic draws a random ticket the moment the competition closes and emails the winner. Manual waits for you to pick the winning ticket, for example after a live-streamed draw.
