Online poll contests combine interactivity with incentive. Users are asked to vote on a specific question — such as their favorite product, feature, or idea — and receive an entry into a prize draw after submitting their vote.

This format is simple, fast, and effective for engaging audiences. It is ideal for running light-weight campaigns that gather preferences, spark conversation, or segment users based on responses.

You can launch a poll-based contest using Gleam and include features like real-time result display or custom visuals for each option to enhance participation.
