Spot scam competitions
The warning signs of a fake South African competition: upfront fees, airtime requests, cloned brand pages and winner messages for competitions you never entered.
Read itHow we check every listing
Every listing on Yebo Wins is checked against the promoter's own published terms before it goes live, and checked again each morning. This is what that actually means.
The closing date comes from the promoter
We read the closing date off the promoter's terms and conditions, not off a press release or a social post. Those two often disagree, and the terms are the version that decides the draw.
If the terms give a time as well as a date, we use it. A competition that closes at 23:59 on a Friday is treated as open all of Friday.
If we cannot find a closing date in the terms, the competition does not go up. An undated listing is the single most common failing on other sites, and it wastes your time.
Entry cost is labelled before you click
Every listing says whether entry is free, needs a purchase, needs an account, or costs money directly. We take that from the terms too.
Free entry means you can enter without spending anything. If there is a free route alongside a paid one, which South African law generally requires, we label it free and explain the free route.
Closed competitions come down the same day
A competition disappears from the site on the day it closes. We do not leave it up with a stale date, and we do not keep it for the search traffic.
This is the difference you will notice most against other listing sites, where competitions sit open for months after the deadline has passed.
What we do not do
We do not run these competitions, pick winners, or hold prizes. The promoter does all of that.
We do not copy the promoter's written marketing. We publish the facts you need: who is running it, what the prize is, what it costs to enter, how to enter and when it closes.
