Are there any Active Giveaways going?

Hi I was wondering if there any active giveaways out there or if there any starting soon?

Not current, no.

Generally such are not announced significantly in advance (more than ten days) so we can't actually answer "starting soon".

The only "giveaways" (as in completely free, just claim this) are usually during the period between late November and mid-February (associated with holidays and the Anniversary Event), and occasionally during major content releases or the annual Las Vegas Star Trek Convention.

In general, those are existing Zen store items (or sometimes new items) which are temporarily "discounted" to zero.

Beyond that, you would be looking at event rewards, which may be "free" money-wise, but require effort via gameplay. This category includes 3 T6 ships per year (usually, we have actually had four twice, including this year), via the annual Summer, Winter, and Anniversary seasonal events (and 2019's Elachi event and this year's Mirror Universe event). Each of these is a brand-new, specific ship, and the seasonal events get a new ship each year.

I know of three giveaways that are still active depending on the sites.
temporal event, matha event, and getting Klingon species unlock event.

Those “giveaways” are promotions with various companies released during major content drops to try to get new and returning players back to the game. When the next season or new Terran episode is released—there will likely be a new one. Probably after the new year or around the February Anniversary update.
