Who this template is for

Giveaway Entry Form is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in awards, contests & voting.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 10 questions across 3 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 4 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • Conditional logic hides 5 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 5 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features skip logic: if “Are you 18 or older?” is No, respondents jump straight to “Disqualified” and skip everything in between.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Would you like bonus entries?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Which bonus actions did you complete?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Which bonus actions did you complete?” includes Followed on Instagram, the form dynamically exposes “Your Instagram handle”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Which bonus actions did you complete?” includes Shared the giveaway post, the form dynamically exposes “Link to your share”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Which bonus actions did you complete?” includes Tagged a friend, the form dynamically exposes “Friend's name or handle”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 5 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

About this template

Running a giveaway well means enforcing the rules that keep it legally clean while still making bonus entries feel rewarding rather than mandatory. This form opens with the entrant's details and an age-eligibility question, since most giveaways have a minimum age and a small number of entrants will always fall outside it. Anyone who answers under the eligibility threshold is routed straight to a polite disqualification message instead of being allowed to continue and submit an entry that will just have to be voided manually later. Entrants who qualify move on to accept the rules and confirm they're a genuine follower or customer, then reach an optional bonus-entries section: following a social account, sharing the giveaway, or tagging a friend each reveal a small confirmation field only when that specific action is selected, so nobody is asked to prove an action they never took. Keeping bonus entries genuinely optional protects completion rates while still giving engaged entrants a reason to spread the word. A final consent checkbox confirms the entrant has read the official rules, which matters for compliance and gives the organiser a clean paper trail if a winner is ever challenged.

How the form changes as it's filled in

Set it up step by step

  1. 1

    Publish written rules alongside the form

    Link the full official rules from the form intro so the consent checkbox actually refers to something entrants can read.

  2. 2

    Filter out disqualified entries before the draw

    Anyone routed to the disqualification message shouldn't reach your entry list — check the age field before importing to your draw tool.

  3. 3

    Verify bonus actions before crediting extra entries

    Spot-check a sample of handles and share links rather than trusting every self-reported bonus action equally.

  4. 4

    Keep the main entry separate from bonus weighting

    Store the base entry and bonus count separately so you can run a fair random draw with accurate weighting.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Letting underage entrants complete and submit a full entry instead of stopping them at the eligibility question.
  • Making bonus entries feel mandatory by hiding the base entry behind a required social action.
  • Skipping the rules-acknowledgement checkbox, which weakens your position if a winner selection is ever disputed.

What it pairs with

Most teams don't run this form on its own. These are the forms and systems it sits next to.

What to do with the responses

Filter out disqualified and unverified bonus entries, run the draw with proper weighting, and notify the winner using the contact details already on file.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need the age-eligibility question for every giveaway?

Only if your prize or region requires a minimum age — set the threshold to match your actual rules.

How many bonus actions should I offer?

Two or three is usually enough; more than that makes the entry form feel like a checklist rather than a quick contest entry.

Should I require the bonus-action confirmation fields?

No — they should only appear when selected and stay optional, since bonus entries are meant to be extra, not gatekeeping.

Can I use this for a purchase-based sweepstakes instead of social actions?

Yes, swap the bonus-action checkboxes for order-number or receipt-upload fields and keep the same eligibility and rules structure.
