Experience new levels of success by running a Paid Cart promotional competition with YouPay.

To create instant sales and activity with YouPay, incentivise your customers to create and share their carts with a Paid Cart promotional competition!

How do I run a Paid Cart promotional competition?

Decide on a hosting place for your competition - 'How will my customers enter my competition?'
Host your Paid Cart Competition either in your own Facebook Group, or in our YouPay VIP Community Group (7,000+ VIP members) if you don't have a group of your own.
Decide on a deadline - 'How long do I want to run my promotional competition? '
We've seen competitions for 24 hours, 48 hours, 3 days, and even 1 week!
The longer the competition the better, as this will make for more activity as you promote the competition over that period of time.
Decide on a prize reward you want to offer customers - 'What's the reward for the competition winner?'
We've created official YouPay assets that you can download here to run your competitions up to the value of $50, $100 or $100+ - the choice is yours!
Post to your Group or ours - (click here)! - 'Now that I've decided on the specifics, how do I announce my competition?' Here's some copy to get you started:

'"Hi there, we've recently integrated YouPay onto our store!
