Winvia Entertainment has agreed to acquire Rev Comps, one of the UK’s best-known prize draw platforms, for £11.8 million in cash. The deal with owners Robert, Peter and Amy Savage covers the company’s full trade, assets and operations, with completion expected by 1 July 2026.
The Business Being Acquired
Since launching in 2019, Rev Comps has developed a loyal following through competitions offering cars, motorbikes, technology, holidays and cash. The founders’ visible involvement and the platform’s community feel have helped it stand out from more transactional rivals.
The figures show it is operating at serious scale. Rev Comps generated more than £80 million in revenue and £2.1 million in pre-tax profit during the year ending 31 May 2025.
Why Winvia Is Buying Rev Comps
The acquisition supports Winvia’s wider plan to strengthen its position in the UK prize draw market. The group already owns BOTB and Click Competitions, and is considering further acquisitions.
Technology is central to the deal. Winvia plans to move Rev Comps onto its proprietary platform, with the aim of improving performance and helping the business scale more efficiently.
Winvia CEO Mihai Manoila described Rev Comps as a high-quality business with a strong brand and customer base. He expects the technology migration to deliver a significant improvement in performance.
How The Deal Is Structured
The £11.8 million will be paid in stages:
- Around 45% when the acquisition completes.
- A further 34% after the audited accounts for the year ending 31 May 2026 are approved.
- The remaining 21% on the second anniversary of completion.
The Savage family could also receive additional payments based on profit growth during the financial years ending December 2027 and December 2028.
This earn-out structure gives Winvia some protection while encouraging the sellers to support Rev Comps during the transition—particularly useful when the founding team remains involved.
What Happens To The Team
Winvia has confirmed that key members of Rev Comps’ management team will remain after completion.
That continuity matters in a sector where trust, familiarity and regular customer engagement are commercially important. Sudden changes to the people or personality behind a platform can quickly unsettle its audience, so preserving the qualities that made Rev Comps recognisable appears to be part of the plan.
What It Means For The Sector
The deal is another sign that the UK prize draw industry is maturing. Rapid growth, higher advertising costs, stronger competition and increased regulatory scrutiny are pushing the market towards larger operators with the technology, scale and compliance systems to handle those pressures.
For Winvia, the acquisition adds an established brand, a large active customer base and substantial revenue to a portfolio that already includes two credible competition platforms.
For Rev Comps users, little is expected to change immediately. Competitions should continue as normal before and after completion. The bigger questions are whether Rev Comps can retain its community feel under new ownership and what the technology migration will mean in practice.
Those answers will take time, but the wider direction is clear: the UK prize draw sector is moving away from a collection of independent operators and towards consolidation. Winvia is helping to drive that change, and Rev Comps is unlikely to be its final acquisition.
