Why operators choose ByteStack
Everything you need to run a competition business — included from day one, not bolted on later.

Fixed monthly pricing that doesn't scale with your revenue. Know exactly what you're paying, even as you grow.
Growth Tools Included
Integration with Klaviyo included for marketing automation — email, SMS, and flows set up as part of your launch.
Compliance Built In
Built around the UK Government's code of practice. Compliance baked into platform behaviour, not just docs.
Launch-Ready Onboarding
Performance-focused onboarding designed to get your first competition live and converting, not just set up.
Investment vs. return
Potential earnings
Your platform investment pays for itself within your first few competitions. Here's what the numbers look like.
Your investment
Platform setup, compliance, marketing automation, and launch onboarding — everything included.
Competitions to break even
A single well-run competition with 5,000 tickets at £5 each generates £25,000 in revenue. You could recoup your setup cost from your first draw.
Potential annual revenue
Running 1–2 competitions per month at modest ticket volumes can generate over £100k annually — with the right marketing.
What drives ticket sales
Social Media
Instagram, Facebook & TikTok content to drive traffic and build your audience
UGC Content
User-generated content from winners and entrants builds trust and social proof
Email & SMS
Klaviyo-powered automation brings repeat buyers back with every new competition
Paid Ads
Targeted ads on Meta and TikTok to scale ticket sales beyond organic reach
Industry benchmark
Omaze — the gold standard
Omaze runs house prize draws in the UK, typically selling around 35 million tickets per competition at an average price of £0.67 per ticket. Their average house competition generates in excess of £8 million in profit.
You don't need Omaze-level volume to build a profitable business. Even at 1% of their scale, the numbers work.

Pricing questions
The setup fee covers your complete platform build — branded design, compliance implementation, payment gateway configuration, marketing automation setup (email, SMS, WhatsApp), and performance-focused onboarding. You get a launch-ready competition business, not just access to software.
We believe platform costs shouldn't eat into your margins as you grow. Our pricing is flat and predictable — unlike platforms that take a percentage of revenue or increase fees at scale. As your ticket sales grow, your cost per transaction actually decreases.
No. You pay the setup fee, a fixed monthly fee, and standard payment processing rates (~1.5% + 15p via DNA Payments). There are no revenue shares, no per-ticket fees, and no surprise charges.
Entry gives you a fully branded competition platform with everything you need to launch and grow. Premium is a bespoke build with custom design, integrations, API access, a dedicated account manager, and advanced growth strategy onboarding — ideal for operators scaling aggressively or running multiple brands.
ByteStack offers significantly lower setup costs than Zap (~£15,000) and lower monthly fees than both Reffle (~£399–£499/mo) and Zap (~£500+/mo). We also include marketing automation and performance onboarding from day one — something competitors charge extra for or don't offer at all.
Yes. Many operators start with Entry and upgrade as they grow. We'll credit a portion of your original setup toward the Premium build, and handle the migration with zero downtime.
