How to Create an Instant Win Giveaway or Contest

Instant wins campaigns are prize draws in which consumers know immediately whether they have won or not. Set the odds of winning and give participants a chance to win a prize instantly.

Instead of having to wait weeks or months, participants will be given Instant results allowing you chances to market to winners and non-winners alike. Woorise currently offers three different types to run an Instant Win campaign.
