About DrawFunder

The transparent prize draw platform built for fundraisers who believe in doing things properly.

Who we are

DrawFunder is operated by Somar Fergusson, a UK-based sole trader. I built DrawFunder because I was running charity prize draws for my own fundraising and couldn't find a platform that made it easy, transparent, and compliant.

So I built one. DrawFunder is a software platform that enables fundraisers to run transparent, legally structured prize draws to support charitable causes. Every draw includes a free entry route, a public audit trail, and a verified proof of draw page — so anyone can confirm the result was fair.

Our mission

To make charity prize draws transparent, responsible, and genuinely easy — so fundraisers can focus on their cause instead of admin.

How it works legally

DrawFunder is a technology platform, not a promoter. The individual fundraiser is the promoter of each draw and is responsible for compliance.

All draws must include a free entry route to operate as prize draws rather than lotteries under UK law.

Donations flow directly to charities through connected fundraising pages (JustGiving, Enthuse or GiveWheel). DrawFunder takes 0% of donations and never holds the money or stores payment details — the fundraising provider's own fees may apply.

DrawFunder is registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and processes data in accordance with UK GDPR.
