The PTS People's Choice Awards 2023 Celebrating the Best in the Business
The PTS People's Choice Awards 2023 recognises the very best in the philatelic trade, and we are excited to be celebrating four new award categories this year!
Nominations have closed! Voting Opens 7th December 2023 Want your business or your favourite PTS Member to be recognised for their work? Submit your Nomination today!
There are four award categories: Best Website Nominate your favourite philatelic website. Perhaps it is the store functionality you love, how user-friendly it is, or that it feels like there is something new each and every time you visit. Maybe you'd like to nominate a site for how well it promotes the hobby, how useful its articles and links are, or simply how well beautiful philatelic items are displayed. Nominate your favourite website and let us know why here.
Best Publication Nominate your favourite philatelic publication - whether print, digital, or both! Perhaps you're nominating an organisation that produces a magazine, a catalogue, a price list, or a reference guide. Does it stay on your coffee table or in your inbox for you to look at more than others? Is it always kept rather than recycled/deleted? Maybe you are nominating the publication for its style, its content or its creative editing. Whatever your reason for nomination, let us know here.
Best Social Media Nominate your favourite philatelic social media account - whether it is on X, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn or elsewhere! What do you love about it? Its frequent content? Its informative content? Its inspiring content? Its trendy styling? The friendly community that follows it too? Do you have alerts on a specific account so you don't miss anything? Or is there an account you never miss a post from? Nominate it today here.
Best Physical Space Nominate your favourite physical philatelic space - it might be a shop or physical store, an auction room, the office of a stamp dealer you visit, a stamp show stand you loved seeing or spending time at. Meeting people face to face is important, so which PTS Member do you look forward to seeing and where? What do you love about the space they have created for you? Is it the variety of material available, the comfort, the expert staff on hand to help you, the fact it is quiet, or it is busy and buzzing? Nominate the physical space you've most enjoyed this year here.
Why Nominate? This is a great way to help raise awareness for your business or a business you love. Here at the PTS, we love to hear about all the great work our members are doing and we want to celebrate that. Help us celebrate the best in the trade today.

The PTS offers a wide variety of benefits to its members, but we also promote the hobby more widely meaning each and every PTS Member's contribution is helping future-proof philately for many years to come.
