Pick a winner fairly

A prize draw in three steps

Paste your entrants, choose the number of winners, draw. Each person can only win once per draw — double draws are ruled out. That way you can hand out several prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in a single round.

Transparent and easy to prove

All entrants have the same chance, decided by the browser's cryptographic randomness. For social media giveaways, a screenshot of the entrant list and the result works well — it makes the draw easy for everyone to follow. No data is sent to a server.

This preparation keeps your draw clean

Before you hit the button, the quality of your entrant list decides whether the result is fair. Add each name individually and remove duplicate entries if every person may only win once. That stops anyone from accidentally holding several tickets.

Decide up front how many winners you want to draw. Since nobody is drawn twice, you need at least as many entrants as prizes. Only with clean data does the result become genuinely fair and convince skeptical onlookers, too.

• Communicate the closing date clearly and change nothing afterwards
• Check the list for duplicates and typos
• Set the number of prizes before the draw
• Save a screenshot right after drawing

How to keep your giveaway credible

With a public giveaway, what counts is not only that you draw fairly, but that everyone can follow along. A screenshot of the draw serves as your proof, and you can share it with your community. It shows the winners and builds trust.

Announce the process openly so nobody suspects manipulation afterwards. If you are handing out several prizes, you can draw multiple winners in one round. They are picked without repetition, so each name comes up at most once. Keep your proof until all prizes have been sent out. That way you cleanly document that every winner was drawn transparently and without favoritism, and you spare yourself later arguments.
