Frequently Asked Questions

100% fairness. We do not offer a "pay to win" award program and all nominees are reviewed equally. 

All applications are reviewed and scored by a trusted panel of  judges. The impartial judging panel is carefully selected and includes qualified business experts, public guest judges and mystery shoppers to ensure complete fairness. Previous winners may be invited to help select winners across other award categories providing there is no conflict of interest.

Our fair scoring process has been carefully designed to ensure entries are judged equally and that a worthy winner is selected and crowned for each award. 

At 365 Awards we provide free entry for all award nominations and applications, ensuring that small independent businesses can compete equally without being priced out by larger companies.

Many other award companies that charge up to £500 per entry with no guarantee you will be recognised, at 365 awards it is completely free to enter or to nominate a company that deserves to be an award-winning business. 

There are no compulsory costs associated with accepting a nomination or winning an award at 365Awards. Winners have the freedom of choice if they would like to purchase an optional certificate and unique trophy package to help them celebrate their achievement. Trophies are entirely optional and businesses can choose a certificate, trophy and newspaper press release if they would like to be seen in the spotlight as the best in their field.
