Storm Competitions: paid-entry prize draws with cash alternatives

Storm Competitions runs an online competitions platform where entrants pay a per-entry fee for the chance to win vehicles, watches, technology, luxury items and cash. The site organises draws into categories — Cars, Tech & Luxury, Tax Free Cash, Instant Wins, Watches and Auto Draws — and each listed prize is paired with a stated cash alternative. The company presents itself under the strapline “Win Big – Every Day”.

Vehicle and watch prizes in the featured draws

The featured competitions at the time of writing included a brand new Elddis Whirlwind GT 150 four-berth motorhome with a £50,000 cash alternative, a 2022 Rolex Submariner ‘Starbucks’ with £10,000 cash, a VW Crafter Utility Pack with £40,000 cash, a 1966 Ford Lotus Cortina Mk1 replica with £18,000 cash, a 2022 BMW X5M Competition 620BHP with £50,000 cash, a Yamaha Grizzly 700 EPS SE / XT-R Special Edition quad with £7,500 cash and a 1988 Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth E REG with £20,000 cash.

Cash-only draws and instant wins

A separate cash category groups draws named after their price and prize, such as £500 for £10, £2,000 for £20, £10,000 for £99, £1,000 for £2.99 and £5,000 for £50. The Instant Wins section lists multi-prize pools with large prize funds, including Amazon Own Brand (2,000 prizes, £30,000 fund), Apple (7,500 prizes, £175,000 fund), Gamer Galore (2,000 prizes, £40,000 fund), Trick or Treasure (10,000 prizes, £250,000 fund) and Ninja Knockout (2,000 prizes, £75,000 fund), among others.

Tech, luxury and seasonal items

The Tech & Luxury category features items such as a Britannia Gold Bullion bundle, a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 256 GB in Graphite, an LG 75-inch Smart 4K UHD HDR NanoCell TV, and seasonal prizes including a beauty advent calendar and a Liberty men’s advent calendar. Each carries a cash alternative, for example £600 for the gold bundle and £850 for the Samsung handset.

Entry mechanics and postal route

Competitions display a per-entry price, a count of entries taken against the total available, and a percentage progress indicator. Alongside the paid online entry, each draw lists an “Alternative Postal Entry” option. Draw dates are shown for each competition, and some are labelled as auto draws.
