Draw integrity

Before the draw

• Entries close at the published cut-off.
• Paid and valid free entries are merged into one final pool.
• The final valid entry count is recorded.
• The pool is locked so no new entry can be added after cut-off.
• An audit reference/hash should identify the final draw snapshot.

Winner selection

The launch method must be solicitor-approved. PrizePull intends to use either an independent/supervised physical draw, a certified physical drawing device, or a computer process that produces verifiably random and auditable results. The selection process must not know or care whether an entry was paid or free.

After the draw

• the winning entry number is recorded once;
• the result and draw time are published;
• the winner is verified for age/identity/eligibility before fulfilment;
• the public result remains in the winner archive;
• the fuller internal audit record is retained for complaints or review.

No sales-based moving goalposts

PrizePull does not intend to postpone, cancel or downgrade a prize simply because fewer paid entries were sold than expected. Exceptional changes should only happen under narrow solicitor-approved circumstances.
