The reason why you aren’t winning Giveaways

Hey Pickies! As some messages from Picky users were reaching us, asking why they’re not winning any Giveaway, we would like to share one of the main reasons today and how to solve the issue. It is quite important, especially for the brands that are sending out your products, to have a completely correct address to ship to 🚚 There are some important points to be considered in order to ensure a safe shipment and we want to introduce these to you today! 1. Shipping Country 🌍: Please make sure your shipping country is correct and you’re not using any forwarder address but your real residence address. It’s easy for us to see whether it is a forwarder address or not and in case you use one, we unfortunately cannot pick you as one of our winners in the future. The brands can only ship to certain countries and if a Giveaway is e.g. US only, it’s for a reason! 2. US State Code 🇺🇸: If you’re an applicant from the US, make sure to always use the two-letter state code, (e.g. CA instead of California). 3. Phone number 📞: Make sure to include your country code when entering your phone number, (e.g. 1212345678 instead of 212345678). Please DO NOT include any symbols like + or - or 0 before the number 4. KTP 🇮🇩: If you’re an Indonesian user, always include your KTP. If you don’t fill out this section, you won’t be selected as a winner. 5. House/Room number 🏡: Make sure to add your apartment/suite number when entering your address. Head over to the profile tab on the Picky App, click on ‘Edit profile’ and ensure your shipping address and phone number are correctly saved! Once you made sure your information is saved correctly, it increases your chance to win, so please take action NOW!

I've not had any issues regarding my address so far, but I still haven't won any giveaways in a very long time. Despite being an active user, signing up for a lot of giveaways and posting reviews diligently. I'm not expecting to win a giveaway every time I sign up but there has been a drastic reduction in giveaways I've won. It's demotivating to not win any especially if I'm expected to be active on the app. Most giveaways these days are only for US regions too, leaves little opportunity for the others.

Great info! i was wondering if it is still possible for people to apply to a giveaway even after the deadline has passed? the skin1004 giveaway for example has technically ended but what if my friend were to apply? would that be useless?

I think it would be useless, for example they would’ve already sorted everyone’s packages with their addresses as there’s a separate deadline for people to correct their addresses if chosen and that’s today so they’ve already picked who’s won that giveaway
