Hi Mic. The best way to send giveaway winners your prize, is by contacting them via email and getting their delivery details.

How do I send them what they won tho?

Hi Brenton, absolutely. Click the Edit link to edit the duplicate, then click the Settings tab in the left sidebar and select general. On the right-hand side, you’ll see the Giveaway Name field. You can change the name there. Here’s a screenshot to show you what I mean https://a.supportally.com/IPIKaE

Is there a way to change the name of the duplicate

eg. you have a competition called giveaway. When you create a duplicate it automatically defaults to giveaway copy. How do you change that to something like giveaway 2

Hi Arlene. You can extract data from RafflePress using the Export function. Simply, click the ‘Users’ link on any contest, and on the top-right side of your screen, you’ll see links to Export Users and Export Entries. I hope this answers your question.

Thank you for your comment, Paul. We have updated this article to remind users to check the terms and conditions for different social media platforms before running a contest.

Facebook T&C are very clear that you are not allowed to do it yourself, or encourage others to tag or share your post.

A LOT of big pages who did this method of entry have been suspended or deleted from Facebook. We have had multiple sites with over 1M followers taken down immediately by Facebook, and even a couple of High Street brand names get suspended for a week over contests that require LIKE/SHARE entry.

Competitions are okay, and comments are okay, but do not ask for a Tag A Friend or Share for a competition post as it only takes one reported post to trigger a suspension for 24 hours, and permanent if you do it multiple times.

On top of that, you are causing your site and brand to be blacklisted when it comes to advertising should you ever pay to advertise your page/group.

And finally, your customers/followers will give you bad reputation as it is proven that people that Tag/Share several times trigger moderation and get their accounts suspended for the same reason you are not allowed to do it, it is classed as spamming.
And when your clients find they cannot post for 24 hours – 7 days on Facebook because of a competition they entered on your page… they are going to give you negative feedback or take their custom elsewhere.

So please… have your competitions and giveaways but do not risk Tag/Share entry if you value your Page/Group and don’t want it to suddenly vanish on you over night. It CAN and DOES happen regularly to major brands who trip up on this lazy marketing style.

That’s a great question. In RafflePress, you can duplicate any giveaway to create an exact copy. I hope this helps.
