Is Running a Cryptocurrency Giveaway Secure?

Yes, as long as you only ask for what you need. Our Crypto Wallet Address Action collects a public wallet address and nothing else. It never asks for a private key or seed phrase, and it doesn't connect to anyone's wallet.

Crypto Wallet Address Action settings with Address Type, placeholder, description and Accept Duplicate Addresses

What else protects you and your entrants:

  • Each address can only be used once, unless you switch on Accept Duplicate Addresses
  • Address Type sets the format you'll accept (ETH / BEP-20, BTC, BEP-2 or Other)
  • On the Business Plan and above, Fraud Level and Contestant Verification tighten the checks on who enters
  • We hold a SOC 2 Type II report

The Crypto Wallet Address Action needs the Pro Plan and above.

Caution

Scammers copy crypto giveaways. Say in your description that you'll never DM entrants or ask for a private key, seed phrase or payment to claim a prize.

How Can I Avoid Fake Entries In My Crypto Giveaway?

Turn on Contestant Verification, keep the Fraud Level at High or above, and keep duplicate wallet addresses off. Then review the Actions tab before you draw.

Are Crypto Giveaways Legal?

Often yes, but it depends on the country and the token.
