How it works

  1. Paste names or usernames, one per line.
  2. Tap Remove duplicates, then set winners and alternates.
  3. Tap Draw and share the result link with your audience.

Every pick starts from your browser's cryptographic random number generator, so each option has the same chance unless you set a weight. How the randomness works.

Ways to use it

Questions people ask

Why should I remove duplicate entries?

If someone appears three times, they have three times the chance. Removing duplicates gives each person one entry, unless your rules allow extra entries.

What are alternates for?

Alternates are backup winners in order. If a winner doesn't reply or can't claim the prize, you go to the first alternate.

How do I prove my giveaway was fair?

Share the result link. It shows the winners, how many entries were in the draw and when it happened, so entrants can check.

Can one person win twice?

Not in a single draw. Each winner and alternate is a different line from your list. Set the number of winners and alternates before you tap Draw.
