Over R22,500 worth of prizes up for grabs in our monthly StarPet SA competition. Prizes are awarded in the form of store vouchers and cash.

The eight prizes are valued as follows:

Prize Overview

People's Choice Overview

3X People’s Choice winners are selected based on the total number of public votes the entrant receives. These votes are submitted via SMS, Ozow or Snapscan (charged). 50% of all profits generated by the competition are donated to a registered pet-affiliated charity. Should the competition fail to generate a profit in a specific month, a minimum amount of R2,500 will be donated to the charity. The charity recipient (for the next competition not yet open for voting) is chosen by the People’s Choice 1st prize winner.

Angel's Choice Overview

3X Angel’s Choice winners are selected by the previous month’s nominated charity. To be eligible for the Angel’s Choice competition, entrants must feature in the Top 100 at the close of the competition. Winners of the People’s Choice Awards do not qualify.

StarPick of the Month Overview

The StarPet Pick of the Month is chosen by the StarPet team and must have accumulated 20 votes during the month to be eligible. Winners of the People’s Choice and Angel’s Choice Awards do not qualify

Competition Timing

The competition is run monthly. Entries for the following month’s competition open and close on the first and last days of the current month. Voting for the current month’s competition opens and closes on the 1st and last day of the current month. Winners will be announced by the 7th of the month following the competition close date.

How to vote:

We encourage voting via eft or Snapscan to get better value for your money and to ensure a bigger portion of your vote cost reaches the charity.

Instant EFT Voting

You can give votes to any Pet in our competition via Ozow. Just go to the Pet's profile and follow the simple instructions using the trusted Ozow payment method. You will receive a confirmation SMS as soon as the vote has been submitted on our system.

Snapscan Voting

You can give votes to any Pet in our competition via Snapscan. Just go to the Pet’s profile and follow the instructions to vote via Snapscan. These votes cost R1 each and you can buy as many or as few votes as you wish.

SMS Voting

Your little star has a unique code consisting of the word “Pet”, a space, and three to five digits e.g. “Pet 123”

To gain 1 vote for your Pet at a cost of R2, SMS this unique code (e.g. “Pet 123”) to 41875

To gain 15 votes at a cost of R30, SMS the same code to 42323

For your vote to be valid it is important that your SMS contains ONLY the unique code, with a space between the word “Pet” and the number. Do not enter any other copy.

You will receive a confirmation SMS that your vote has been registered.

Checking your progress in the competition

After our 1st elimination round, the Top 100 entrants’ ranking will be revealed. The Top 100 is constantly changing, so keep voting to ensure you get there and stay there to be eligible for People’s Choice and Angel’s Choice prizes. We will have a total of 4 elimination rounds during the month, at the end of which only the Top 100 entrants will remain. Remember though that even if you are eliminated, if you have 20 votes or more, you could still win our StarPick of the Month prize valued at R4,000.

Look out for communication from us to earn double, triple, or even more bonus points when you vote at certain specified times.
