We reserve the right to request reasonable evidence of age, identity and eligibility before awarding a prize.
Entries that do not meet the published eligibility requirements may be disqualified.
3. Customer Accounts

Each individual is permitted one personal account unless we expressly authorise otherwise.
Customers must:

- Keep their login credentials secure.
- Notify us of suspected unauthorised access.
- Avoid creating duplicate or fraudulent accounts.
- Use the website lawfully and responsibly.
Accounts must not be transferred, sold or shared with other individuals.
We may suspend or restrict accounts where there is reasonable evidence of fraud, misuse or a material breach of these Terms.
We will investigate suspected breaches and act fairly and proportionately.
4. Competition Information
Each competition will have its own dedicated page displaying relevant information, including:
- Competition title and prize description.
- Ticket price.
- Maximum number of available tickets.
- Maximum entries per person, where applicable.
- Opening and closing dates.
- Draw date or draw method.
- Any instant-win prizes.
- Any additional competition-specific conditions.
Competition-specific terms form part of these Terms and Conditions.
Where a competition-specific condition differs from a general condition, the competition-specific condition will apply, provided it is lawful and was clearly disclosed before entry.
5. Paid Competition Entries
Customers may purchase competition entries through our website.
To enter:
- Select the competition.
- Choose the number of tickets.
- Complete the checkout process.
- Receive confirmation of your successful entry.
Ticket prices are displayed in pounds sterling (GBP).
A paid entry is confirmed once payment has been successfully processed and the entry has been allocated.
Adding tickets to a basket does not guarantee their availability.
Where applicable, promotional credit may be used towards purchases in accordance with our wallet rules.
6. Free Postal Entry Route
Mint Competitions provides a free postal entry route for paid-entry prize draws operated under the free-draw provisions of UK law.
No purchase is necessary.
Full instructions are available on our Free Entry Route page.
Postal entrants must provide the required identifying information and clearly identify the competition they wish to enter.
Entries may be submitted by ordinary first- or second-class post, with no premium delivery service required.
Valid free entries will be treated equally to paid entries, including for ticket allocation, prize determination and winner selection.
The free entry route will be promoted alongside the paid entry route.
All entries must meet the applicable eligibility requirements and be received within the published entry period.
The system used to determine winners must not distinguish between paid and free entries.
7. Ticket Numbers and Entry Limits
Each valid entry will be allocated a unique ticket number or entry identifier.
The number of entries available for each competition will be displayed on its competition page.
Where maximum entry limits apply, they will be clearly stated before entry.
These limits apply equally to paid and free entries.
Customers must not attempt to bypass entry limits by creating additional accounts or using false information.
We may reject entries where there is reasonable evidence that published limits have been deliberately circumvented.
8. Instant-Win Competitions
Some competitions feature instant-win prizes in addition to, or instead of, a scheduled end draw.
Instant-win prizes may include:
- Mint Credit.
- Cash prizes.
- Physical products.
- Gift cards and vouchers.
- Other prizes specified on the competition page.
Instant-winning tickets are determined through the applicable competition’s published prize allocation process.
Customers may be able to reveal ticket results using interactive games, including scratchcards, spinning wheels, darts games or other reveal experiences.
These games are presentation and reveal mechanisms. They do not independently change the prize assigned to a ticket.
Where instant-winning ticket numbers have been predetermined, the prize outcome is linked to the ticket allocation and not to the customer’s interaction with the reveal game.
All valid entries must have an equal opportunity to receive an applicable instant-win prize, regardless of whether the entry was paid or free.
9. Instant-Win Prize Claims
Instant-win prizes may be processed differently depending on the prize type.
Mint Credit Prizes
Eligible credit prizes may be automatically credited to the winner’s Mint Credit Wallet.
Cash Prizes
Eligible cash prizes may be credited to the winner’s Cash Wallet, subject to verification and withdrawal conditions.
Physical Prizes
Winners may be required to confirm their delivery details and complete a prize claim.
We will make reasonable efforts to contact winners and arrange fulfilment.
Any claim deadline or additional requirement will be clearly disclosed before entry where it is a significant condition.
10. Live Draws and Automated Draws
Mint Competitions may operate live draws, automated draws or other published winner-selection methods.
The applicable method will be identified on the competition page.
Live Draws
Live draws may be broadcast through our website or official social media channels.
Winners will be selected using the advertised random selection process.
Automated Draws
Automated draws may be conducted through our competition platform without a live presenter.
Where a verifiable random selection service is used, the relevant draw information may be retained for auditing and verification.
All valid eligible entries must be included in the applicable draw.
The winner will be determined fairly and impartially.
11. Competition Closing Dates
Every competition will display its applicable closing date or clearly defined closing condition.
Entries must be received and accepted before the competition closes.
Competitions may close when their published ticket allocation is exhausted, where this has been clearly disclosed.
We will not extend or change closing dates merely because ticket sales have been lower than expected.
Any unavoidable change will be handled in accordance with applicable law, with appropriate notice and without unfairly disadvantaging participants.
12. Prizes and Prize Values
The prize or prizes available in each competition will be described on the relevant competition page.
We aim to provide accurate product descriptions, photographs and prize information.
Where images are illustrative, this will be made clear.
Unless expressly stated, prizes do not include additional expenses such as travel, accommodation, installation, insurance or other associated costs.
Any material exclusions will be clearly disclosed before entry.
Prizes are non-transferable unless otherwise agreed.
13. Cash Alternatives and Prize Substitutions
A cash alternative will only be available where expressly offered in the competition terms or subsequently agreed with the winner.
Where a choice of prize or cash alternative is advertised, the applicable amounts and conditions will be clearly displayed.
Mint Competitions will not automatically reduce an advertised prize because a competition fails to sell a particular percentage of its tickets.
If an advertised prize becomes genuinely unavailable for reasons outside our reasonable control, we will seek to provide a suitable alternative of equivalent or greater value, subject to applicable law and the circumstances of the promotion.
Any proposed substitution will be communicated transparently.
14. Winner Notification
Winners may be notified through:
- Their registered email address.
- Their Mint Competitions account.
- Telephone contact where appropriate.
- Official winner announcements.
We will make reasonable efforts to contact winners using the information provided.
Winners may be required to verify their identity and eligibility before receiving their prize.
We aim to deliver prizes within 30 days of the relevant draw or prize claim, unless a different fulfilment period was clearly disclosed before entry.
Where delays arise, we will communicate with affected winners.
15. Unclaimed Prizes
Winners are responsible for providing accurate contact and delivery information.
We will make reasonable efforts to contact winners and facilitate prize claims.
If a winner cannot be contacted or fails to satisfy clearly published eligibility or claim requirements, we may take appropriate action in accordance with the relevant competition rules and applicable law.
Any redraw or alternative allocation procedure must be fair and consistent with the terms disclosed before entry.
16. Mint Credit Wallet
Mint Competitions may issue promotional credit through instant wins, competitions, offers, refunds or customer promotions.
Mint Credit:
- May be used towards eligible competition entries.
- Has no cash redemption value.
- Cannot normally be withdrawn to a bank account.
- Cannot be transferred between customer accounts.
- May be subject to clearly disclosed promotional restrictions.
Any expiry date or material restriction must be clearly communicated when the credit is awarded.
Mint Credit will not be retrospectively removed without a valid reason.
17. Cash Wallet and Withdrawals
Cash winnings may be credited to a customer’s Cash Wallet.
Eligible customers may request withdrawal of available cash balances using the withdrawal process provided on the website.
Withdrawals may be subject to:
- Identity and account verification.
- Fraud prevention checks.
- Published minimum withdrawal thresholds.
- Payment provider processing requirements.
Any applicable withdrawal fees or minimum amounts will be disclosed before the customer requests a withdrawal.
Promotional Mint Credit cannot be withdrawn as cash unless expressly stated.
18. Payments and Refunds
Payments are processed through our authorised payment providers.
Customers are responsible for ensuring their payment information is accurate and that they are authorised to use the selected payment method.
If a payment fails, the relevant entry may not be confirmed.
Refund requests will be considered in accordance with applicable consumer law and the circumstances of the transaction.
Where a refund is legally required, it will not be withheld by these Terms.
If an entry is cancelled or invalidated due to a technical or administrative error, we will provide an appropriate remedy.
Nothing in these Terms excludes statutory consumer rights.
19. Free Giveaways and Promotional Competitions
Mint Competitions may operate promotional giveaways, including:
- Freebie Friday promotions.
- Social media giveaways.
- Free credit promotions.
- Sports prediction competitions.
- App-exclusive promotions.
- Loyalty and customer reward promotions.
Each promotion may have its own eligibility criteria, entry conditions, prize allocation and closing date.
Where a promotion requires a qualifying purchase or previous customer activity, that requirement will be clearly stated.
A promotion described as free will not be misleadingly presented as requiring payment.
App-exclusive promotions may require customers to access the website through an installed app experience, provided this is clearly disclosed and lawful.
20. Promotional Codes and Special Offers
We may issue discount codes, bonus entry offers, cashback promotions or other incentives.
Such offers may be subject to:
- Expiry dates.
- Entry or order limits.
- Eligible competitions.
- Minimum purchase requirements.
- Restrictions on combining promotions.
Unless otherwise stated, promotional codes cannot be combined within the same transaction.
We may withdraw an offer where there is genuine misuse or a technical error, subject to applicable consumer law and the rights of customers who have already validly participated.
21. Charity Competitions
Certain competitions may be promoted as supporting charitable causes.
Where a competition states that 100% of ticket sales will be donated to charity, this means the full qualifying ticket sales amount will be donated as advertised, without deductions that contradict the promotional claim.
The charity, donation basis, relevant dates and any material conditions will be clearly identified.
We will maintain appropriate records of donations and make reasonable supporting information available.
Charity-related promotions will be administered in accordance with applicable law.
22. Responsible Participation
Mint Competitions encourages customers to participate responsibly and within their financial means.
Participation should be viewed as entertainment and not as a means of earning income or resolving financial difficulties.
Customers should never spend more than they can comfortably afford.
We may provide account restrictions, spending controls or support information where available.
Customers who wish to restrict or close their accounts may contact us.
23. Fraud and Prohibited Activity
The following activities are prohibited:
- Creating fraudulent or duplicate accounts.
- Using stolen payment information.
- Attempting to manipulate ticket allocation or draw outcomes.
- Exploiting technical vulnerabilities.
- Circumventing published entry limits.
- Submitting deliberately false information.
- Using automated systems to abuse promotions.
- Engaging in payment fraud or other unlawful conduct.
Where reasonably justified, we may suspend an account, investigate suspicious activity or invalidate fraudulent entries.
Any action taken will be proportionate and consistent with applicable law.
24. Website Availability and Technical Errors
We aim to maintain a reliable and secure website.
However, temporary interruptions may occur because of maintenance, technical faults or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Where a technical issue affects entry allocation, payment processing or prize determination, we will investigate and take reasonable corrective action.
We will not knowingly allow an affected competition to proceed using an inaccurate or unfair entry list.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
25. Intellectual Property
All original Mint Competitions branding, logos, website designs, written content and other protected materials remain the property of their respective owners.
Customers may not reproduce or commercially exploit our protected materials without permission.
Third-party trademarks and product names remain the property of their respective owners.
26. Social Media Promotions
Competitions advertised through Facebook, Instagram, TikTok or other social media platforms are operated by Mint Competitions unless expressly stated otherwise.
Unless specifically identified as an official partnership, such promotions are not sponsored, endorsed or administered by those platforms.
Participants must comply with the relevant promotion rules and applicable platform requirements.
27. Privacy and Personal Information
We collect and process personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
Personal information may be used to administer competitions, verify entries, process payments, contact winners and deliver prizes.
Further information about your data protection rights is available in our Privacy Policy.
28. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms and Conditions to reflect changes in our services, business practices or applicable law.
Changes will be published on our website.
Material changes will not be applied retrospectively in a manner that unfairly disadvantages customers who have already entered a competition.
The terms applicable at the time of entry will generally govern that entry, subject to mandatory legal requirements.
29. Liability
Mint Competitions will exercise reasonable care and skill in providing its services and administering competitions.
We are not responsible for losses caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control, except where the law provides otherwise.
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Your statutory rights remain unaffected.
30. Complaints and Disputes
If you have a complaint relating to a competition, payment, prize or account, please contact us through our official website.
We will investigate complaints fairly and aim to provide a reasonable response.
If a dispute cannot be resolved directly, customers may pursue any legal rights or remedies available to them.
