Making the work
Growing an audience
Running the business
Both cover giveaways & referrals. Here is what separates them on price, billing, what you can take with you, and coverage.
Waitlists where position moves on referrals
Giveaways, quizzes and polls with entry rules
Prefinery | Woobox | |
|---|---|---|
| Starting price (they differ) | From $49 | From $29 |
| Pricing model (they differ) | Free trial, then paid | Free plan, paid tiers |
| Free tier (they differ) | No | Yes |
| Billing | Monthly or annual | Monthly or annual |
| Free trial (they differ) | 14 days | None |
| API | Yes | Not stated |
| Data export | Everything, in an open format | Not stated |
| Their cut | Not stated | Not stated |
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.
Waitlists where position moves on referrals
Prefinery runs the waitlist you put up before launch and gives every signup a queue position that improves when they bring somebody. That mechanic is the product, and the rest is the plumbing around it: the embedded form, the emails, the fraud checks and the export. It bills on how many people join.
Our note
Buy this for the referral queue, not for the email sending, and check the numbers against what a waitlist is worth to you: $49 a month is cheap for a launch and expensive for a list that sits still.

Giveaways, quizzes and polls with entry rules
Woobox builds the campaign types a giveaway actually needs: sweepstakes with entry rules, photo and video contests, quizzes, polls and coupon giveaways, each on a hosted page you can embed. Entries can be tied to actions on the networks you care about. The free plan runs a real campaign rather than a preview.
Our note
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.

Woobox is the one to reach for when the campaign is a contest or a quiz rather than a referral loop. Gleam is the closer comparison, and Woobox wins on how far its free plan goes.
