Max Giveaways

Max Giveaways is a high-energy UK competition brand — built for live Facebook draws, instant-win campaigns, and ticket prices from 2p, with a story that puts purpose at the centre of every prize.

Operated by Maxwell's Comp Shop Ltd (Company No. 16415869), the platform runs everything from featured prize grids and instant-win mechanics to winner galleries, live-draw promotion, and a player account hub.

We designed and developed the experience end to end: the dark-mode storefront, competition detail flows, checkout, winner showcase, and the content areas that tell Max's story — including a £10-per-competition donation to Epilepsy Action.

The brief

Max Giveaways needed more than a template competition site. The brand is loud, personal, and community-driven — players discover draws through Facebook live streams and expect to enter in seconds on mobile.

Behind the scenes, the operator needed to run dozens of simultaneous campaigns: instant wins alongside traditional live draws, price filters for bargain hunters, cash alternatives on physical prizes, and trust signals (Trustpilot, company details, responsible play) without slowing down launch velocity.

What we delivered

A custom competition platform with a cinematic dark UI, orange-accent branding, and flows tuned for repeat play — from 2p instant-win machines to headline prizes with live-draw countdowns.

The result is a storefront that feels premium and urgent, plus the operational depth to publish competitions quickly, surface winners publicly, and keep players engaged between draw nights.
