Start a competition business
From brand and email to an operator ready competition site.
Starting should not require a software project. You bring the brand. Beaver creates the operating environment, and checks what is missing before it lets you go live.
The software is the easy part to get right. The model you run is the part to get right first.
The path
Launch in the right order.
Choose the model
Free draw or prize competition. Legal advice if unsure.
Brand and domain
Your identity on the storefront.
Set up the operator
Self service signup and guided setup.
Pass readiness
Legal pages, controls, first competition.
Launch and draw
Verifiable draws, tracked fulfilment.
-
The legal distinction
Get the structure right before you configure anything.
A free draw needs a genuine free route. A prize competition needs a real skill test. Neither needs a lottery licence if properly structured, and either can become an unlawful lottery if not.
-
Platform setup
No new server per customer.
Live
Provisioning creates your storefront, legal pages, mail sender and an isolated runtime from the setup flow. Theming applies your colours, logo, font and corner style.
-
Free route and skill
Both handled in the product.
Live
Postal and online free entry into the same pool, and a server validated skill question where you use one.
-
Payments
Honest status.
Built
The full sandbox payment journey works. Production card processing is waiting on real merchant validation, and we will tell you exactly where that stands when you talk to us.
-
Your first draw
Verifiable from day one.
Live
Committed entries, public randomness and a public verifier, so your first winner is as provable as your thousandth.
-
Fulfilment and controls
The operation after launch.
Live
Track what is owed, age checks, dispatch and delivery evidence. Spend limits, breaks, exclusion and suppression run from the first sale.
Readiness gate
Finding out after launch is a rubbish onboarding strategy.
Beaver will not let a site go live while required setup is still missing. That is a feature, not an obstacle.
Launch demo

We will show you the setup flow on the real product, and be straight about what is live today.
