To reward users who purchase multiple tickets at once, some PollyPrize raffles offer Batch Bonuses. This means you can receive additional free tickets based on the number of base tickets you purchase in a single transaction.

​
How Batch Bonuses Work

  • Up to Two Tiers: Each raffle can have up to two distinct batch bonus tiers configured:
    • Tier 1: Defines a threshold (minimum base tickets to buy) and a bonus in percentage points.
    • Tier 2: Defines a higher threshold and typically a higher bonus percentage.
  • Threshold Requirement: You must purchase at least the number of base tickets specified in a tier’s threshold in a single transaction to qualify for that tier’s bonus.
  • Highest Tier Applies: If you meet the threshold for both Tier 1 and Tier 2, only the bonus percentage from the highest threshold you met (Tier 2) is applied. Bonuses from different tiers do not stack within the same purchase.
  • Bonus Calculation: The bonus percentage is applied to the number of base tickets you purchased.
    • Example: Tier 1 is 5% for 50+ tickets, Tier 2 is 10% for 100+ tickets.
      • You buy 75 base tickets: You meet the Tier 1 threshold. Bonus = 75 * 5% = 3.75. Since you can only get whole tickets, you receive 3 bonus tickets. Total = 78.
      • You buy 120 base tickets: You meet the Tier 2 threshold. Bonus = 120 * 10% = 12. You receive 12 bonus tickets. Total = 132. (The Tier 1 bonus is ignored because you qualified for the higher Tier 2).
  • Stacking with VIP: Batch bonuses stack with any VIP Ticket Bonuses you might be eligible for! The VIP bonus is calculated separately on the base tickets purchased.
    • Example: You buy 120 base tickets (qualifying for 10% batch bonus = 12 tickets). You are also a VIP with a 5% ticket bonus (5% of 120 = 6 tickets). You receive 120 (base) + 12 (batch) + 6 (VIP) = 138 tickets total.

Finding Batch Bonus Info

  • Check the Raffle Detail Page. If a raffle offers batch bonuses, the tiers (thresholds and percentages) should be listed clearly in the rules or details section.
Buying tickets in larger batches can significantly increase the number of entries you get for the same price, improving your odds thanks to these potential bonuses!
