Our approach · 18+

Safer participation. Clear information. Your own pace.

The Comp App is for adults aged 18 and over. Competitions should not be treated as income, a way to recover earlier spending or a solution to money problems. You can browse without entering, leave a draw behind or stop altogether.

Our commitments on this website

  • Factual information with clear limits: listings and historical app previews are not endorsements or promises.
  • No claims of guaranteed wins, financial security, approved operators or complete market coverage.
  • Practical guidance on entry terms, published ticket numbers, free routes and operator checks.
  • Clear source links, correction contacts and support information that you can access without an account.

A signatory to the voluntary code

The Comp App appears under “Other relevant signatories” in the government’s voluntary-code publication, checked on 11 September 2026. Signing is a commitment to good practice; it is not government endorsement or a guarantee about a listed operator.

We are an information service. Independent operators handle entries, payments, account controls, draws and prizes. We cannot set a spending limit or exclude you across their services. Read what the code means.

Keep decisions within your own limits

If you choose to spend, decide a limit in advance across all the sites you use. Keep money for essentials separate and never borrow to enter. A limit is not an amount you need to use, and earlier spending does not make a win more likely.

Give yourself time to read the terms. Disable app or operator notifications if they add pressure. A countdown or discount should not override a decision to pause.

Taking a break

  • Turn off promotional notifications in your phone settings and review operator marketing preferences.
  • Ask each operator about spending limits, pauses, exclusion and any recurring payments or subscriptions.
  • Remember that deleting The Comp App does not close operator accounts or exclude you from their websites.
  • For help deleting your Comp App account, use our support page.

Support, without another entry

If spending is causing concern, MoneyHelper has information on dealing with debt and finding advice. Citizens Advice can help you understand possible scams and other consumer problems.

If you need someone to talk to about distress, Samaritans explains its support options. Choose the service that fits your situation; we are not a debt adviser or crisis-support service.
