Official Draw Certification

What a Certificate Confirms

A Certificate is the formal record issued upon completion of a draw conducted through the platform. It is generated immediately at the point of draw completion.

The draw was executed A draw took place on the platform and was processed to completion.

The outcome was recorded The draw result — including winner(s) — was captured and stored at completion.

The completion time was logged in UTC An exact, timezone-independent timestamp was recorded at the moment of completion.

The result is available for public verification Anyone can independently confirm the certificate is valid and unaltered using the public verification tool.

Certificate Contents

What Every Certificate Includes

Every issued certificate contains a fixed set of fields that together form a complete, auditable record of the draw outcome.

Unique Certificate ID

A platform-generated identifier assigned to this specific draw record.

Draw Name

The name of the draw as submitted by the organisation at creation.

Organisation Name

The name of the organisation that conducted the draw on the platform.

Completion Timestamp (UTC)

The exact date and time the draw was completed, recorded in Coordinated Universal Time.

Winner(s) & Reserve Status

The selected winner(s) and any reserve winners designated at the time of draw.

Entry Count

The total number of entries included in the draw at the point of execution.

Record Fingerprint (SHA-256)

A cryptographic hash of the draw record, enabling tamper detection and independent verification.

Public Verification Reference

A direct link and reference to confirm the certificate on the public verification page.

Record Fingerprint

SHA-256 Record Fingerprint

Each certificate includes a cryptographic fingerprint of the draw record. This fingerprint represents the exact state of the data at completion — any modification would produce a completely different hash.

Confirm the Record Fingerprint

Optionally, compare the SHA-256 fingerprint shown on the certificate against the value held in the platform's stored record to confirm no alteration has occurred.

Receive Confirmation

The verification page confirms whether the certificate is valid, unaltered, and matches the original stored record — providing an independent, public confirmation of the draw outcome.

Independence & Scope

What the Certificate Does and Does Not Confirm

A certificate is a formal record of execution, not a legal ruling. Understanding the scope of certification is important for organisations and participants alike.

The Certificate Confirms

The draw was executed on the platform

The stated outcome was recorded

The UTC completion time is accurate

The record has not been altered since issuance

The Certificate Does Not Confirm

Competition legality or compliance

Prize fulfilment or delivery

Promotional regulatory compliance

Eligibility of entrants or conditions

The platform records that a draw took place and confirms its result — it does not operate, sponsor, or take responsibility for the competition itself. Organisations remain responsible for the legal and regulatory compliance of their promotional activity.
