Made for handing out prizes

Most pickers land on one name and stop. A real raffle usually has more than one prize, so this draws as many winners as you set, all at once and all different, and shows them in order — first place down to the last.

If you're giving out prizes one at a time, turn on keep past winners out. Each draw sets its winners aside so the next one can't land on someone who has already won, which is exactly what you want when the grand prize and the runner-up are drawn a few minutes apart.

Make it an event

  • Put it on the big screen. Send the draw to a projector or TV and the room watches the reveal, while your entry list stays on your laptop.
  • A real reveal. Entries flicker past for a moment of suspense before the winner lands, and confetti marks the moment — switch it off if you'd rather keep things plain.
  • Any entries work. Names, ticket numbers, emails, order numbers — one per line.

Where it fits

  • Giveaways and promotions — draw a winner from a list of entrants, fairly and in front of everyone.
  • Clubs and classrooms — prize days, reward draws, fundraisers.
  • Events and meetups — door prizes and swag, drawn live on the room's screen.

Questions

Can I draw more than one winner?

Yes — set how many and the draw picks that many distinct winners at once, so no one wins twice in the same draw. It shows them in order, which works for a grand prize plus runners-up.

How do I give out several prizes without the same person winning twice?

Turn on “keep past winners out.” Each draw then sets its winners aside, so the next draw picks from everyone who hasn't won yet. Draw the grand prize, then the second prize, and so on. “Put everyone back in” resets the pool.

What can I use as entries?

Anything, one per line — names, ticket numbers, email addresses, order IDs. Duplicate lines are merged, so paste freely.

Can I show the draw on a screen for a crowd?

Yes. The second screen button opens a display-only window for a projector or TV. The room sees the suspense cycle, the winner revealed big, and a confetti burst, while your entry list stays on your own screen. The confetti can be switched off.

Do my entries get uploaded?

No. The list is saved by your browser on your own device and isn't sent anywhere — there's no server behind this tool. Clearing the box, or clearing site data for this site, removes it.

Can I run an online raffle for a fundraiser?

Yes. Collect entries however you like — sold tickets numbered in a sheet, a sign-up list, donor names — then paste them in one per line and draw. For several prizes, keep past winners out so nobody wins twice. It doesn't sell tickets or collect entries for you; you bring the finished list.

What would make this tool better? A device that's missing, a detail that looks wrong, an option you went looking for and didn't find — all of it is useful. Send a note.
