01 / The brief

A whole business, not just a website.

Legion Comps needed a platform that could sell entries, prove each draw was fair, treat postal entries equally, manage instant wins and help one operator fulfil every prize.

01Provable, reproducible draws
02Equal paid and postal entry routes
03Operations built for a small team

02 / The platform

One connected system from entry to fulfilment.

Customer experience, financial controls, draw integrity and operator workflow were designed together, not stitched across separate products.

Storefront & accounts

Competitions, ticket selection, customer wallet and order history.

Payments & reconciliation

Open banking, card and alternative routes with reliable ledgers.

Draws & instant wins

Commit-reveal proofs, immutable pools and reproducible outcomes.

Operations & fulfilment

Competition setup, reports, winner handling and dispatch.

03 / Signature feature

Don’t trust the draw. Check it.

A commitment is published before sales begin. After the draw, the secret and frozen entry pool are revealed so anyone can reproduce the winner independently.

01Commit before entries open
02Freeze and hash the entry pool
03Reveal the secret and reproduce

04 / Operational controls

The rules live in the software.

Ticket pricing, postal inclusion, instant-win mix, responsible-play controls and operator decisions are enforced or recorded by the platform, not left to memory on a busy day.

05 / Under the hood

Mature technology, carefully assembled.

Django, PostgreSQL, background workers and HTMX keep the stack maintainable. Custom engineering is reserved for the draw, money movement and operational guarantees that matter.

Core technology

06 / The outcome

A dependable operating system for a growing competition business.

The platform turns complicated rules into a clear customer experience and repeatable operator workflow.
