Randomantic How to run a lucky draw online
- Collect every entry — names, Instagram or Facebook usernames, ticket numbers, or employee names — and paste them in, one per line. Pasting a column from Excel or Google Sheets works too.
- Set how many winners you need, plus any reserve winners in case someone can’t be reached.
- Keep One entry per person ticked if people may have entered more than once, or untick it if extra entries should count as extra chances.
- Click Draw winners. Suspense mode rolls through names before revealing each winner — great for livestreams and annual dinners.
- Use Copy results to paste the winners, entry count, and draw time straight into your announcement post.
Perfect for giveaways, raffles and annual dinners
A lucky draw picker takes the arguing out of choosing winners. Brands and creators use it to pick Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok giveaway winners from comments; schools and clubs use it for raffles; and HR teams use it for the lucky draw segment at company annual dinners, where there may be dozens of prizes and hundreds of names. Because each result shows the number of entries and the exact time of the draw, it is easy to show participants the process was fair.
Tips for a transparent giveaway
- Announce the closing time and the number of winners before you draw.
- Remove ineligible entries (for example, people who didn’t follow the rules) before drawing, not after.
- Draw a reserve winner so you never need to redraw publicly if a winner goes silent.
- Screen-record the draw or run it on a livestream so everyone can watch it happen.
