Guaranteed Outcome

You win either way

When you win a raffle, one of two things happens.

Prize delivered The seller fulfills the raffle. You receive exactly what was listed. The seller gets their payout.
Cash compensation The seller doesn't fulfill. You receive cash compensation from the pot directly to your wallet. No chasing, no begging.

Mechanism Design

No obligation means no incentive to scam

This is mechanism design, a branch of game theory. By removing the obligation to fulfill, we remove the incentive to scam. When a seller can walk away freely, the only reason to fulfill is because the deal works for them. Honesty becomes the dominant strategy.

AI Prompt

Explain how mechanism design (a branch of game theory) applies to online raffle platforms. Specifically: a platform lets sellers list items for raffle. If the raffle sells enough tickets, the seller can choose to fulfill and ship the prize, or walk away with no penalty. If the seller doesn't fulfill, the winner gets cash compensation from the ticket pot instead. Explain why removing the obligation to fulfill actually protects buyers better than forcing sellers to deliver. Cover concepts like dominant strategies, incentive compatibility, and how this eliminates the incentive to send fake items or ghost buyers. Use simple language.
