[Giveaway] Win a Flipkart Gift Voucher Worth ₹500 [CLOSED NOW]

Hello friends. Today, I’m very happy to inform you that I’m hosting my first ever giveaway on BuddingGeek.com. Since this is my first giveaway, I’m not keeping the prize too high 🙂 I’ll check the level of engagement and responses first, and based on the feedback, I may host relative expensive giveaways in the future. Sounds great? Awesome! Now let’s start with the giveaway details in the form of FAQs –

1. What’s the prize?

I’ll be giving 1 Flipkart gift voucher worth ₹500 to any one of the “qualified” participants. Flipkart is one of the top destinations for online shopping in India. Think of this gift voucher/gift card as a discount on your total purchase. You can purchase anything that you like on Flipkart. When you’re on the payment page, select the payment mode as E-Gift Voucher (EGV), and you’ll be entitled for a discount of up to ₹500 on your total billing value on entering this unique code. That means, if your total order value is less than ₹500, the outstanding balance (after deduction of order value) will reflect under the same EGV. If your total order value is more than ₹500, the balance must be paid by your Credit Card/Debit Card/Internet Banking (except Cash on Delivery)

2. Who can participate?

This giveaway is international – Anyone in the world can participate. Though Flipkart doesn’t ship goods to anywhere outside India, still, those outside India can at-least purchase e-books using this E-Gift Voucher.

3. When does this giveaway start, and end?

The duration of this giveaway is 15 days from the day it starts. It starts on 30th March 2015 (Monday), and ends on 15th April 2015 (Wednesday)

You’ll be required to complete various “entry-conditions” to be qualified to win this prize.

The rules are very simple –

1. Participants who earn maximum points will be given priority. For example, if A and B earn 8 points each, while C earns 10 points, then C will be the clear winner.
2. When there’s a tie in the total number of points earned, one lucky winner will be picked randomly by Rafflecopter.

I’ll announce the winner within 2 working days after this giveaway ends. That is, before 18th April 2015. The winner’s name will be published in a separate post, and I’ll send the E-Gift Voucher to him/her personally from my work email id – abhishek(at)buddinggeek(dot)com
