What giveaways do

Giveaways let shoppers enter to win prizes from your vendors. They drive foot traffic to booths, build your social following, and collect shopper contact info for marketing.

​
How to create one

1

Open giveaways

Go to seenmarkets.com → your market’s management page → click the Giveaways card.
2

Create a giveaway

Click Create Giveaway and fill in:
  • Name — e.g. “Grand Prize Giveaway”
  • Description — what shoppers are entering to win
  • Start and end dates — when entries are accepted
3

Add prizes

Add one or more prizes. You can select prizes from vendors who indicated contributions on their application, or add prizes manually. Each prize can have a name and value.
4

Set social follow requirements (optional)

Require shoppers to follow the market and/or participating vendors on Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, or YouTube to enter. This is optional — skip it if you don’t want social requirements.
5

Review legal terms

Review the standard terms. Add custom rules or a privacy policy if needed.
6

Create

Save the giveaway. It’s live and ready for entries.

​
How shoppers enter

Shoppers access the giveaway from the Digital Market Guide (Giveaway tab), a direct URL, or a QR code you print and display. They enter their name, email, phone, and social username (if required), then submit. After entering, they see participating vendors and their booth locations — driving foot traffic.
