BOTB (Best of the Best plc) has been running competitions since 1999 and has given away over £37 million of prizes so far. Every week there are guaranteed winners in the Dream Car, Midweek Car and Lifestyle Competitions.
We're a UK-based company, listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange and are therefore required to adhere to the highest legal and audit standards. We currently employ approximately 20 staff.
You can see who works here, as well as information about who is on the Board of Directors and details of our lawyers, auditors and financial advisers in the About section.
For the Dream Car and Midweek Car Competitions, simply add tickets to your basket for the prizes you'd like to win, play Spot the Ball and then proceed to checkout. For further information, watch our How to Play video.
For the Lifestyle Competition, add tickets for the prizes you'd like to win and answer the skilled multiple choice question. Your answer applies to all tickets in that order. Good luck!
At the end of the Dream Car and Midweek Car competitions, the same 'Spot the Ball' picture you used to choose your coordinates is shown to a judging panel comprised of professional sporting experts. In the presence of an independent lawyer they mark where they think, in their professional opinion, the centre of the ball should be. The winner is simply the person who is closest to the judged position. They will receive the prize corresponding to their winning ticket.
For the Lifestyle Competition, the winner is drawn from all correct entries by PromoVeritas, the UK's leading independent promotional verification service. They will receive the prize corresponding to their winning ticket.
There is a limit of 75 tickets per customer, per competition for the Dream Car, Midweek Car and Lifestyle Competitions. Read more in our terms and conditions.
Dream Car and Midweek Car Competition tickets range from 40p - £5.10, depending on the type of car you'd like to win

In each of the Dream Car and Midweek Competitions there can only be one winner. If a case arises in the Dream Car Competition where two or more players are equally close to the judges position, the winner will be determined by calculating the next closest entry of the players in question. The person with the closest second ticket is then the outright winner. If any player in this 'equidistant' scenario has only one ticket, all players that qualify will participate in another Spot the Ball competition online to determine the outright winner.
All 'equidistant' players who do not win outright, will receive £1,000 in cash. Please be sure to read the full terms and conditions
Dream Car Credit is won as a reward for doing well in Car Competitions only. Dream Car Credit can only be used to enter the Dream Car or Midweek Competitions and cannot be exchanged for cash or used in the Lifestyle Competition.
You can play the Dream Car or Midweek Car Competition for free if you have enough Dream Car Credit, or you can use it in part payment. Dream Car Credit will automatically be deducted from your account at checkout with any qualifying purchase.
You can also earn Dream Car Credit by Referring a Friend if you are a member of the Supercharged Club or by being a runner-up in the Lifestyle Competition.
Please note: Dream Car Credit will expire - check your Account for details.
We are legally obliged to use a game of skill to determine the winner of our competitions - not simply a lottery or raffle. We use 'Spot the Ball' as it's widely recognised, fun and an easy way to enter. You will be shown a photograph that does not contain a ball.
You must use your skill and judgement to decide where you think the centre of the ball should be. Your chosen points will be recorded as (x,y) coordinates.

The basis of the game must categorically be the skill of an entrant versus the skill of professionals - not versus the chance that the original spot on the football picture is picked. It is a subtle but important legal definition by which we are bound to operate.
The panel of judges is formed of experienced professionals on a rotating basis, including both referees and players, who each offer their best opinion.
Using a panel of judges ensures that nobody can ever know the original position of the ball - resulting in a process that is fair, transparent, audited and honest.
You will be emailed a confirmation of your order and competition entries immediately after entering.
If you're a first time player, you'll also receive an email confirming your account log-in details.
Information about all of the competitions you have entered, their status and the results are available on the My Competitions page.

You may not agree with the Judges perfectly each week! But many others will, including the guaranteed winner. The panel of professional judges do the best possible job they can, and we would ask you to consider that they are fair and logical over a good period of time. It is a subjective process and has to be, by law.
