Online Voting Contest Main Features

  • 100% customizable design

    Customize every visual element of your Online Voting Contest to match your brand identity, including colors, images, backgrounds, fonts, and more.
  • Multiple galleries and categories in a single contest

    Organize finalists into different galleries based on categories or themes. Participants register only once and can vote in as many galleries as you decide. Create additional galleries for different voting stages. You have control over how the candidates are displayed: the order, how many per row, and the information visible for each one.

  • Simple content submission experience

    Online Voting Contest includes an intuitive upload interface that makes it easy for participants to submit photos, videos, text entries, and documents. Thumbnails and progress indicators provide a smooth experience throughout the submission process.
  • Custom voting schedule and frequency

    Control when voting opens and closes, and define how often participants can vote. Set limits by hour, day, week, or configure the total number of votes allowed for each participant.
  • Advanced voting with points

    Configure voting experiences where each participant can select multiple candidates and assign different scores to each one. This is ideal for rankings, favorite-pick contests, awards with multiple finalists, or Top 3-style voting. Participants review their selections before submitting, creating a clear and reliable voting experience.
  • Flexible publishing and integration options

    Publish your Online Voting Contest as a standalone microsite with a branded URL or a custom domain. You can also embed the voting experience on your website using widgets or integrate it into your mobile application.
  • Pre-moderation

    To give you complete control over what is displayed, Easypromos offers the pre-moderation option. If you choose to, entries will only become visible after the organizer validates them. Additionally, you can get notifications on your mobile device whenever a new entry is submitted, enabling you to review and approve the content instantly, no matter where you are.

  • Simple, customizable, one-time registration

    Participants must identify themselves and register to participate and vote in the contest. The registration form is fully customizable, and the platform supports integrations with social login providers, SSO systems, and other marketing tools to simplify access and participation. Participants only need to register once, even when voting across multiple galleries or voting stages.
  • Voting stage reminders

    Schedule automated email reminders to notify participants when new voting stages become available. Keep participants informed and encourage recurring participation throughout the contest.
  • Anti-fraud system

    Easypromos features an advanced fraud control system designed to ensure clean and fair voting. The system uses several security checks to monitor the flow and voting patterns. It monitors both the use of bots and automated scripts as well as users attempting to participate with temporary or duplicate emails. The anti-fraud system ensures that each vote comes from legitimate users and that contests take place in an environment of complete transparency and fairness.
