Why Our Gateway

Everything you need to take payments at scale

A payment setup designed around prize competitions - faster onboarding, better conversion, and fees that work harder as you grow.

Payments built for the sector

An industry-leading solution designed around prize competitions rather than retrofitted to them, so your checkout keeps converting through every big-draw launch and traffic spike.

Fewer declines, more sales

Smart transaction routing and sector-tuned acquiring recover payments that would otherwise be declined, putting more revenue through your checkout with no extra effort.

Live within 24 hours

Fast onboarding means most accounts are approved and taking payments within a day, so you can launch competitions without waiting weeks to get set up.

Get paid the next day

Next-day payouts keep your cash flow healthy, so you can fund bigger prizes and reinvest in growing your draws without waiting on your takings.

Fees that fall as you grow

Preferential rates that step down as your volume rises, so the more you sell the less you pay, and more of every transaction stays in your business.

One-tap wallet checkout

Apple Pay and Google Pay are built in, so players pay in seconds on mobile, meaning fewer abandoned entries and a smoother experience at the point of purchase.

Already Trading?

You don't need a RaffleLabs website to get a merchant account

Our payment solution isn't tied to our platform. If you already run a competition business, we can set you up on the website you've already got - with the same preferential rates, fewer declines, and next-day payouts.

Custom-coded websites

Already have a bespoke, custom-built site? We'll get your merchant account approved, then your developers can integrate payments using the full developer documentation - no rebuild required.

WooCommerce stores

Running on WooCommerce? We'll get your merchant account approved, then you can be up and running quickly with the dedicated WooCommerce plugin - keeping your current store exactly as it is.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can my payment account go live?
Most accounts are approved and live within 24 hours of your application. We'll guide you through the short setup so you can start taking payments and running competitions straight away.
What are the fees, and how do they work?
You get preferential rates that reduce as your transaction volume grows - so the more you sell, the less you pay per transaction. We'll give you a clear quote based on how you trade once we understand your business.
How fast will I receive my payouts?
Settlements are made on a next-day basis, keeping your cash flow healthy so you can fund bigger prizes and reinvest in growing your draws.
Can you really reduce my decline rates?
Yes. Our solution uses smart transaction routing and sector-tuned acquiring to recover payments that would otherwise be declined, putting more revenue through your checkout with no extra work from you.
Do you support Apple Pay and Google Pay?
Both Apple Pay and Google Pay are built in as standard, giving players one-tap wallet checkout on mobile - which means fewer abandoned entries and a faster path to purchase.
Do I need a RaffleLabs website to get a merchant account?
Not at all. Our payment solution isn't tied to our platform - if you already run a competition business, we can set you up on the website you've already got, whether that's a custom-coded site or a WooCommerce store.
Do you work specifically with prize competition businesses?
We do. Our payment solution is built around the needs of prize-competition and raffle operators, so it understands the sector and keeps your checkout running reliably through every draw.
