Skill Contest

Why should I play?

Here's why we're so confident you'll love Skill Contest:

Excellent chances of winning

Most of our competitions feature a limited number of tickets. We fix this number low to make sure we can pick a winner as quickly and as often as possible. Every single competition results in at least one winner, regardless of how many people play. We pick a winner as soon as tickets sell out or a competition ends. We offer all types of prizes, game formulas and ticket prices, so you can choose the one that best suits your personality and style.

Win great prizes using your skill and judgement

Skill Contest exclusively features skill competitions. That means that we pick winners based on their skill and judgement, not by chance. We work hard to consistently bring you a choice of great prizes for all competitions. We tell you how many tickets have been sold so far and often feature daily rankings, so you can actually see how well you're performing. We work with panels of expert referees and in the presence of a lawyer at all times. We ensure the highest level of security and integrity at all times.

We reward the best and most active players

The best players on Skill Contest become Gold Members, allowing them to play first, participate in VIP competitions and win better prizes. We reward you for playing early and even if you don't win, we reward you for finishing with a high rank in a competition. If you successfully refer enough friends to Skill Contest, we’ll give you credit so you can play for free for a chance to win a prize.

We are based in London and registered in England and Wales

Skill Contest is based in London and run by a passionate group of people. You can rest assured you're dealing with a reliable company and you will have full access to us by phone and email throughout. Find out more about us.

What can I win?

We try hard to find something for everyone. That's why our competitions usually offer you a choice of prizes to allow you to win exactly what you want.

We always offer a choice of highly desirable prizes

Our prizes are guaranteed to be of the highest quality, often produced in limited editions or launched very recently in our market. We also make sure to include prizes of different value to suit the different personalities and preferences of our players.
