Gerald Edelman advises the shareholders of Click Competitions on sale to Winvia Entertainment

Gerald Edelman is delighted to announce that its Corporate Finance team has advised the shareholders of Click Competitions on its sale to Winvia Entertainment.

Click Competitions Limited (“Click Competitions”) is a leading UK-based online prize competition platform, hosting multiple weekly draws that offer entrants the chance to win cars, luxury goods, and cash prizes. Each draw attracts tens of thousands of participants, thanks to a broad and engaged customer base across the UK drawn by the platform’s exciting and varied prize offerings.

Founded by Justin Franklin and Daniel Oldham in 2020, Click Competitions has experienced exceptional growth since its inception, underpinned by a strong reputation in the online prize competition space. This reputation is built on transparent operations and a broad demographic appeal, evidenced by the company’s excellent Trustpilot rating – making it one of the most trusted brands in the sector.

As part of this transaction, Click Competitions will become part of Winvia Entertainment, a leading competition and gaming platform built on the principles of innovation, integrity, and customer-centricity. It will join a portfolio of well-known brands within the Winvia Entertainment group, including Best of the Best and Princess Casino.

This acquisition significantly strengthens Winvia Entertainment’s position in the online gaming and competition sector, while allowing Click Competitions to benefit from the scale, expertise, and resources of a larger group.

Daniel Oldham, Co-Founder of Click Competitions, commented:

“Click Competitions has grown significantly since Justin and I founded the business, and we felt the timing was right for it to be acquired by a larger group with the expertise to support its next phase of growth. We’re proud of the brand we’ve built, thanks to the dedication of our incredible team, and we’re confident that Winvia Entertainment will continue to drive the business forward.

The team at Gerald Edelman were brilliant throughout the process – from identifying the ideal buyer and negotiating a deal that aligned with our objectives, to managing the due diligence process and guiding us through the legal documentation. We couldn’t recommend the team at Gerald Edelman highly enough!”

Jack Bettell, Associate Director in the Gerald Edelman Corporate Finance team, added:

“We’re delighted to have advised on this deal for the shareholders of Click Competitions. It has been a real pleasure working closely with Daniel, Justin, and the rest of the Click Competitions team, and we’re thrilled to have helped get this over the line for them.

Finding the right partner to support the team’s long-term vision was key, and we’re confident that Winvia Entertainment is the ideal fit.

This transaction represents another successful completion for the Gerald Edelman Corporate Finance team and further strengthens our position as one of the leading UK M&A advisers in the lower mid-market.

We wish both the Click Competitions and Winvia Entertainment teams continued success in the future!”
