The Padded Seat is the UK's biggest reviewer of hospitality sport experiences with over 1.4M followers across all platforms. We built and launched a new system for them called “WIN”: a fully bespoke, raffle style competition platform where you can win hospitality tickets to top Premier League fixtures and beyond.

We built a complete custom WordPress platform from scratch, including: clean coded competition templates with custom fields, Stripe payment integration, a weighted draw system, free postal entry compliance, email notification systems a Hall of Fame, and a fully responsive mobile design across every template.

The brief was ambitious and the timeline was tight, but we delivered - and the entries started landing.

As a team of one, there were no account managers, no handoff delays, no inflated timelines to slow down a client's ambitions. This project proved something we’ve believed for a while - an independent developer with the right skills and focus can compete on both delivery time and quality.
