Rev Comps is a Devon-based prize draw company that launched in 2019 and has grown into one of the more recognisable names in the UK competition space. The format is straightforward — buy a ticket, answer a question, and if your number comes up, the prize is yours. That prize might be a car, a motorbike, a watch, tech, vouchers or something else entirely depending on what's live at the time.
Update June 2026
After going through customer reviews, winner stories and how the platform operates, the picture is broadly positive. People do win, prizes do get delivered, and the company has built genuine word-of-mouth over six years. But there's a significant development worth flagging upfront: Rev Comps has recently been acquired by Winvia Entertainment, the group that also owns BOTB and Click Competitions. What that means for the platform in practice remains to be seen — and it's something anyone thinking about entering regularly should keep an eye on.
The Story Behind Rev Comps
The origin is worth knowing because it shaped the way the company has operated.
One of the founders, Pete, won a Kawasaki motorbike from a £13 raffle ticket in 2019. That experience led him and his son Robbie to launch Rev Comps and give other people the same opportunity. It could read as a convenient marketing story, but Pete and Robbie have remained visibly involved — particularly in the live draws — and customers regularly mention them by name in reviews. The business has felt personal in a way that larger, more anonymous platforms don't, which is part of why it built the following it has.
Whether that personal quality survives the Winvia acquisition is one of the more interesting questions hanging over the platform right now.
What Can You Win?
Vehicles are the headline attraction. Cars and motorbikes feature regularly across a wide range — Porsches, Aston Martins, VW Golfs, hot hatches, classics, superbikes and more everyday options all appear in the draw schedule. The range is broad enough that there's usually something worth looking at regardless of budget or preference.
Beyond vehicles, watches including Rolex and TAG Heuer models, gold coins, holidays, Apple products, gaming bundles, kitchen appliances, vouchers and cash alternatives all feature. The prize list is varied enough to extend the platform's appeal beyond pure car enthusiasts.
Two draw formats run on the platform. Live draws, typically on Mondays and Thursdays, are streamed publicly and tend to cover the bigger prizes — cars and bikes in particular. Auto draws run automatically once a deadline passes or tickets sell out, and are generally used for smaller competitions. A weekly bonus draw gives every paid ticket automatic entry into a separate prize pool worth at least £8,000, which adds value to entries beyond the main competition.
Free competitions run periodically, giving new users a way to try the platform before spending. A postal entry route also exists as an alternative to purchasing online, though this has generated some complaints — covered below.
Ticket prices typically range from around £1 to £25, which isn't always the cheapest in the market, but the draws sell consistently, suggesting the perceived value is there for most entrants.
Do People Actually Win?
The numbers Rev Comps publishes are substantial: over 5,200 vehicle winners, more than 2,700 watch winners, nearly 64,000 auto draw winners, and close to £900,000 donated to charity across six years of operation. Two prize draws have produced millionaires.
The individual accounts are more convincing than the headline figures. A Hyundai Ioniq 5 N delivered to a winner's driveway within five days. A Ford Mustang winner who returned years later and won again. A single ticket bought almost as an afterthought winning a watch from a draw with only 129 entries. A Mercedes convertible personally delivered on a Sunday, with the delivery driver walking the winner through the controls.
Fast delivery and personal communication are consistent themes across the winner reviews. Several people describe receiving a phone call from the team rather than a generic notification email — a small detail that clearly makes a difference to how the experience feels. Entry lists are visible on the site before purchase, so the number of tickets sold is transparent going in.
What Works Well
Trust is the clearest strength. A lot of Rev Comps customers mention initial scepticism that was removed after seeing someone they knew win — a friend, a colleague, a family member. That kind of peer-to-peer credibility is harder to manufacture than a good Trustpilot score, and it reflects years of consistent delivery.
The bonus draw adds genuine value to every entry. The free competitions provide a low-risk entry point. The live draw format creates a community dimension that purely automated platforms don't have. The charity contribution — nearly £900,000 over six years — is significant enough to be more than a token gesture. Rev Comps is also signed up to the industry's Voluntary Code of Conduct, which not every platform bothers with.
Smaller draws with lower entry caps can offer notably better odds than the headline competitions, and the entry lists make it possible to identify these before committing.
Where It Falls Short
The most important practical note is that many of the vehicles are used rather than brand new. Rev Comps makes this clear, but the gap between a photo of a Porsche and the reality of an older Porsche with significant mileage is worth keeping in mind. Always check the age, condition, mileage and service history of any vehicle before entering. What happens if a vehicle develops a problem after handover is also something the platform could explain more clearly.
Postal entry complaints appear in reviews with enough regularity to warrant attention. Several users claim entries were not processed correctly despite being sent on time. Since free postal entry is a meaningful part of how these competitions operate, it's an area that needs to be managed carefully — particularly under new ownership.
Email volume is a consistent complaint. Multiple emails per day during active draws is not unusual, and the opt-in tick boxes at checkout can result in people re-joining the mailing list without realising. Managing preferences carefully from the start is worth doing.
Responsible play information is thinner than it should be for a platform of this size. Age restrictions are in place, but a dedicated page with clear guidance on spending limits and self-exclusion would be a meaningful improvement.
Prize fulfilment is generally praised but not without exceptions. One winner noted that a MacBook prize arranged through Currys hit a stock issue that complicated delivery. Third-party fulfilment adds a variable the platform can't fully control, and it's worth understanding that chain before winning.
The Winvia Question
The acquisition by Winvia Entertainment — the group behind BOTB and Click Competitions — is the most significant recent development in the Rev Comps story.
On paper, joining a larger group with established platforms has potential benefits: resources, infrastructure, potentially improved responsible play tools and customer service. BOTB in particular has a strong reputation for transparency and professionalism that could influence how Rev Comps develops.
But acquisitions also carry risk, particularly for a brand whose appeal has been built on feeling personal and founder-led. Whether Pete and Robbie remain involved, whether the live draw format and community feel are preserved, and whether the prize quality and draw structure stay consistent are all open questions. It's early days, and there's no evidence yet of changes for better or worse — but for anyone considering entering regularly, it's worth monitoring how the platform evolves under new ownership before committing significantly.
The Bottom Line
Rev Comps has earned its reputation. Real winners, visible entry lists, regular live draws, a community feel and a strong record of fast prize delivery all point to a platform that has been run properly since 2019.
The used vehicle point is worth understanding clearly before entering any car draw. Postal entry complaints and email volume are genuine niggles. Responsible play tools could be stronger. And the Winvia acquisition introduces uncertainty that wasn't there before — not a reason to avoid the platform, but a reason to pay attention to how things develop.
For anyone who enjoys prize draws, approaches them with realistic expectations and a fixed budget, Rev Comps has been one of the more trustworthy options in the UK market. Whether it remains so under new ownership is the question the next chapter will answer.
