"Go Live" Checklist
Ready to go live with your Number Guess? We recommend reviewing the following list before launching and double-checking if you have:
- All images uploaded are the correct dimensions. Export image files in 2x to ensure none of the images appear pixelated.
- The slider image with a transparent background.
- Hyperlinked your T&Cs to the opt-in-field, which is created in the data capture section of the settings tab.
- Entered the minimum and maximum numbers for the guessing range.
- All your communications (Registration, Winner/s, Everybody Else) are fully set up and ready to send.
- If you are using coupons, make sure the coupons created are set up correctly. Check the coupon limits are set, the copy for each screen is right and you have linked the appropriate coupons to your communications.
- If you have added the correct answer, make sure to close the competition under Data Capture and then General. This is so when the competition ends, users will be able to view the correct answer on the card.
Then you're ready to go live!

FAQ
How do I change the guessing range?
Click on the Number Guess card's Settings followed by General settings. Next select the Number options and from here you can set the minimum number and maximum number an entrant can submit. Follow Step 2(4) to learn more.
The competition has closed; how do I access the data?
Click into the card modal, then on Data Capture followed by Entries. Here you can download the complete export of data collected or click on the Analytics tab to get a high-level overview of the card's performance.
Top Tips
- Make sure the slider image does not have a background e.g. using a soccer ball, the image is of the ball on its own without a background. This makes the card more appealing.
- Adjust the minimum and maximum guessing range accordingly. Try not to have the maximum guess in the thousands as the slider will be sensitive if the maximum guess is too high.
- Drive your audience to certain touchpoints or locations to further promote your brand. E.g. guess the number of marshmallows in the jar at our Komo office.
