Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Easypromos
Dozens of contest formats, one subscription
Easypromos is a library of promotion mechanics rather than a single giveaway form: random draws, quizzes, photo contests, instant win games and a set of small browser games people actually play. Everything runs from one account with entry rules, winner selection and the compliance text a public draw needs. A plan covers unlimited promotions for as long as it is active. The interface shows its age in places.
Our note
Buy a month rather than a year unless you promote continuously, because the ability to activate a plan for a three week contest and stop is the thing this pricing allows and most competitors do not. Check which formats sit in which tier first, since that is the only axis the ladder moves on.

ShortStack
Contests and giveaways with entry rules
ShortStack builds the contest itself, not only the widget: a landing page, the entry form, the rules that decide what counts as an entry, and the random draw at the end. Emails to entrants go out from the same place. Pricing is by page views rather than by entries, and overage is charged per thousand once a campaign catches on.
Ratings are the average of reviews readers left. The facts are stated by each tool’s own listing and are not verified by CloutStack. How we make money.
