Prize value against ticket cost, value at sell-out, current ticket revenue, ticket affordability, entry-pool size and time until the draw. Free entry gets 100. Paid entries score up to 99.
AI score is the name of our explainable, rules-based ranking. It is not a trained AI prediction or a probability of winning. Open a card’s score details to see the calculation.
When a prize value is missing
We estimate it from maximum ticket revenue divided by the provider’s usual revenue-to-prize multiple. A 2× multiple means a £10,000 sell-out revenue implies a £5,000 prize.
We use configured ratios, otherwise the median from at least five listed-value competitions, otherwise an explicitly assumed 2× fallback. Revenue less prize value excludes operating costs and is not net profit. Estimates are always labelled.
Ticket sales can change. The time-adjusted sales scenario is a heuristic, not a forecast. Instant-win-only competitions without a final draw are not currently supported.
