Disappointing
November 16, 2025

I came 2nd place in one of PupVote's competitions, and their terms state prizes would be delivered within 30 days. It's now been over two months and I still haven't received anything or heard back from them. I've reached out multiple times with no response. Really disappointed — the competition was fun, but the lack of communication and follow-through isn't acceptable. Hopefully they improve their customer service and honour their own terms.

My cat Jingle Belle won 3rd prize in the August 8th-29th contest. I requested my payment on September 8th. I've verified my identity, and it's been over 30 days. I've been told my payment was added to the upcoming "batch payments". But when I emailed again several days later I was told they were unsure when my payment would come. I'm very disappointed and upset about this. I'm not ready to give up yet! We deserve what is owed to us, please do the right thing!

Misleading
October 6, 2025

Awful. You will receive empty promises that you will get paid for your winnings and never do. Very misleading and unacceptable. Emailing the company with inquiries is also useless. Unfortunate experience.

Hi A,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review.

All winners are required to verify their account after they request a withdrawal or their prize. We are bound by skill-based contest rules, where we have to verify the identity of the winners in order to comply with AML (anti-money laundering) regulations. We cannot send prize money to people around the world without confirming their identity first, as well as ownership of the pet.

Once this is done, we will process the prize within around 30 days after verification via Wise, as we do not collect or store any card data.

If you have any questions about the status of your prize, we are always available, so feel free to reach out.

Best,
The Pupvote Team.

It claims that you can either get your winnings in votes for the next contest OR as funds, but if you request funds, you will never see it. So it's a trap where you buy votes to "donate" to a cause and then once you win, you will only get votes to use in the next contest. I did that one round and then requested my winnings after the next contest and have been trying to get my winnings for over a month - I just keep getting a reply of "your winnings are in the next payout batch, we'll let you know of an update when it is available". No details on how or when funds will be transferred to me. Just play on this pet photo contest website as a game, do NOT expect any real winnings and do not waste your money on votes - the voting is rigged. My pet was in 3rd place and then at the last minute, when buying "donation" votes was closed, suddenly other pets were getting thousands of votes and my pet ended up not even making the top 15 somehow.

It's a fun website for animal lovers to vote for pets and see some really cute cats and dogs. The voting is a bit rubbish because you can just buy votes, hence it isn't a true reflection of anything. Should be a lot fairer.

This is a great site to enjoy showing off our best friends and at the sam time connecting with people who love their pets, also adding pictures and being able to win a few bob is an added plus, thoroughly enjoyable site!

My pup won his first competition after 1 day of uploading his picture!

Do not trust this site.
September 4, 2024

This site to me seems like a scan, they want you to buy votes, my precious Mandy has won first place in Illinois but received nothing. I believe this site is misleading. And who knows where the money goes, if your pet wins and gets nothing, then why believe them about what they do with the money. I am going to go cancel my account, no reason to be in a contest that you will not win at, unless they say you win.they have excuses for anything you say.

Hi Steven,

Thank you for your review.

All prizes are mentioned next to each place on the Leaderboard throughout the whole contest, we do not announce what the prizes are at the end. Everyone is aware of what the prizes are beforehand. The prizes for the state/region contests have always been voting coupons. The cash prizes are in the main contest only.

There are many free voting options available for our users - free votes every 10 mins, Streaks, voting coupons, achievements, and votes from Judge&Earn. We do allow our users to purchase vote boosts and this way we have the chance to support pets in need around the world in our Votes4Food program. Please note that we also have Tournaments where there are no paid votes and the winner gets chosen by the users on the site in the Judge&Earn section.

Started off as a cute contest to win prizes for your pet. Each day you get multiple emails asking you to do something to earn more votes! Then they ask you to sign-up for more votes, join this program for more votes, complete this survey, share on these social media sites — all asking for your email or phone number! Pic included for reference They also offer votes to write a review

Cheating Website
March 15, 2024

In my opinion this is a scam and I wouldn't waste money or time on it at all. They don't verify the right dogs with the pictures people put on their bio. And how is a dog going to win when it wasn't in the top 10 and was only in the contest 5 days and come back to win. Theres no way they could have got that many votes! PLEASE BEWARE PEOPLE!

Hi Robert,

Thanks for writing a review and for sharing your concerns with us.

Every winner needs to verify their account to receive their prize. That includes an identity verification and a pet ownership verification.

If they fail to do this, we do not process their prize. We are bound by skill-based contest rules, where we have to verify the identity of the winners in order to comply with AML (anti-money laundering) regulations. We cannot send prize money to people around the world without confirming their identity first.

Feel free to reach our if you have any further questions. We are happy to help!

Best,

I came across the website on Facebook. It's a great way to show all your friends and family pictures of your extended family and seeing how many votes you can acquire between them all. They offer some pretty good coupons and will give you the right answer the 1st time.
