Pay to Enter Prize Draws & Skill Competitions

In recent years we've seen an increase in the number of pay to enter prize draw sites such as Raffall, McKinney Competitions, Bounty Competitions and countless others. At these kind of sites entrants have to purchase tickets for the chance to win cars, holidays and other lifestyle items. Unlike a free prize draw, which can attract unlimited entries, pay to enter competitions will usually limit the number of entries. This is how they are sometimes referenced as raffles which can lead to some confusion. But are these competitions safe and should you consider entering them? Can you enter them for free? Following on from our win a house listings we've decided to apply the same approach to pay to enter sites. We'll be looking at the best sites that are available, the prizes you can win, the entry process and most importantly whether you can trust them.
