Update: Winning giveaways in Lagos is now a full time job!🏋️

Meet Tony, the “Giveaway Strategist” who turned free stuff into serious business. I mean who needs 9-5 when you can just strategise to find and win giveaways?

If you think giveaways are just a fun way to win random prizes, think again. For Tony, giveaways are more than a hobby, they’re his full-time job. From winning kitchen appliances to travel packages and even gadgets, Tony has mastered the art of winning.

But his journey isn’t just about collecting freebies; he’s built a system, trained others, and turned his passion into a well-oiled operation.

Tony, are you sure you didn’t strategise into getting this interview? 

Tony: Oh no ( laughs) Or maybe… (laughs again) 

Really, what does it mean to be the giveaway king? 

Tony: It’s funny honestly. I didn’t plan to make giveaways a career. It started as a joke among my friends. Back in 2016, a brand was giving away headphones, and I won. It felt amazing. After that, I started noticing giveaways everywhere—Instagram, Twitter, you name it. I thought, “If people are giving things away, who says I can’t have them?”

So, when did it go from a hobby to a full-time gig?

Tony: After I won a fridge. (laughs) That was my first “big” win. I realised this wasn’t just luck; there were patterns. I created schedules, tracked brands that loved giveaways, and even made separate social media accounts just for entering. Soon, brands started recognising me, and I’d win regularly. That’s when I thought, “Why not teach others and make a business out of this?”

Wait, you train people to win giveaways?

Tony: Yep! I started small, just showing friends how to spot real opportunities and avoid scams. Now, I have a whole network. When they win, I take a small commission. Think of it as a talent agency but for giveaways. It’s a win-win situation.

What’s the most valuable thing you’ve won?

Tony: Definitely the trip to Dubai. Fully paid flights and accommodations, it was surreal. I also won a high-end gaming laptop once, which was worth a lot.

And the craziest thing you’ve done for a giveaway?

Tony: I’ve created over 15 Instagram accounts. (laughs) I had to manage them all to boost my chances. I’ve even stayed up all night because the giveaway required hourly engagement. I’ve even bought likes a lot of times to win giveaways that require highest likes and engagement. 

Have you ever lost anything in this journey?

Tony: Oh, definitely. Once, I missed out on a huge giveaway because I didn’t read the rules properly. I’ve also had accounts banned for suspicious activity. But hey, it’s all part of the game.

What’s your advice for aspiring giveaway enthusiasts?

Tony: Strategy is everything. Follow the right accounts, read the terms, and stay consistent. And don’t just focus on quantity, go for quality. Some giveaways are worth the extra effort.

Speaking of giveaways, have you heard about the upcoming Quidax Black Friday deals?

Tony: No way! Tell me more, I’m already intrigued. 

It’s going to be huge. Timed fee-free transactions, discounted deposits and withdrawals, and more for all Quidaxians.

Tony: (grinning) This is music to my ears. You can bet I’ll be the first to set reminders. Black Friday and giveaways? That’s my love language.
