The website is a good idea, it it was utilized in a manner that prevented fraud, multiple entries, false irrelevant data & reward hunters. The concept is a task based lottery draw reward system. Eligible participants who have completed required tasks determined by the vendor can be randomly selected to win sponsored prizes. There are API connected features for specific social networks which allow for verification of users. If the APIs for these other technologies were not available there would be a limited guarantee for authenticated user data. I created a giveaway drawing to reward Bitcoin to 15 lucky users. After reviewing the giveaway results and taking an applied analysis of the report giveaway had provided, I discovered that a significant number of reward hunters would use multiple email accounts to increase submissions/odds for winning. These non compliant predatory users would submit values that were as frivolous as a string of random letters if there was no check in place to verify the information. These vulnerabilities seeking opportunitists will exploit any and all means to obtain sponsored prizes which reduces the integrity of the giveaway itself. Giveaway.com should be able to identify multi-submitted users more readily and they don't. It took one second looking from a human's perspective at the data to identify how much fraud had occurred. I had one user submit the same site username for our platform 15+ times. I submitted a request for improvement to their support however, unsure as to the final outcome my suggestions. Service works as expected, is reasonably easy to use & the user interface is pleasant however, the efficacy of demographic target market reach is relatively low compared to an campaign using google console. The cost is significantly lower and more cost effective however, whether you get the right data or reach the right market did not meet expectations for a professional marketer.
