Free Entry Route
WINTHELUXE LTD, Postal (no-purchase-necessary) entry
Last updated: 17 April 2026 | Version: 1.0
1. Overview
WINTHELUXE operates its competitions as skill-based prize competitions under section 14(5) of the UK Gambling Act 2005. A free entry route is not legally required for our competitions, as the outcome depends substantially on the exercise of skill, judgement or knowledge by the Entrant.
However, as part of our voluntary compliance with best practices for UK prize competition operators, we offer a postal free entry route for every competition. No purchase is necessary to enter.
Free Entrants compete on equal terms with paid Entrants. All Qualifying Entries, paid or postal, go into the same draw.
2. Eligibility
The Free Entry Route is open to the same Entrants who are eligible under the main Competition Terms (see clause 3 of our Competition Terms & Conditions). In particular, Entrants must be:
- Aged 18 or over at the time of entry;
- Resident in one of the permitted jurisdictions listed on the Competition page;
- Not otherwise excluded under clause 3 of the Competition T&Cs.
3. How to Enter by Post
To enter any live WINTHELUXE competition by post, send a handwritten postcard or single A4 sheet of paper containing:
- Your full legal name;
- Your date of birth (to confirm you are 18+);
- Your full postal address and country of residence;
- A valid email address and telephone number;
- The name of the competition you are entering;
- Your answer to the published Skill Question for that competition;
- A statement: “I confirm I have read and accept the WINTHELUXE Competition Terms and Conditions.”
- Your signature and the date of entry.
Send your postcard to:
WINTHELUXE LTD, FREE ENTRY 71-75 Shelton Street Covent Garden London WC2H 9JQ United Kingdom
4. Rules of the Postal Route
- One postal entry per envelope. Multiple entries posted together will all be rejected.
- One postal entry per person per competition. (Paid Entrants may purchase up to 50 tickets. Postal Entrants are capped at 1.)
- Postal entries must be received (not postmarked) before the competition’s Closing Date. We are not responsible for postal delays or lost mail.
- Illegible, incomplete or photocopied entries will be rejected.
- Postal entries that fail the Skill Question are disqualified, exactly like paid entries.
- We do not acknowledge receipt of postal entries. If you want confirmation of delivery, send by tracked post.
- Postal entries are not refundable (no fee is paid).
5. What Happens Next
If your postal entry is validly received and contains a correct answer to the Skill Question, it becomes a Qualifying Entry and is entered into the same random draw as paid Entries on the published Draw Date.
If you win, we contact you using the email and telephone details on your entry. Winner verification, prize delivery and publication rules are identical to those set out in clauses 8 to 9 of our Competition T&Cs.
6. Data Protection
Personal data submitted through the Free Entry Route is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We retain postal entry forms for 6 years for audit purposes, in line with UK consumer and tax law.
