Spin Results
Run a fair raffle in front of everyone. Paste the entrants, spin once, and let the wheel pick the winner — with a video recording as proof if you need it. Built for fundraisers, giveaways, office draws and classroom prizes.
Paste your list below, one item per line
Add your options, spin, and share the winner in seconds.
The difference between a raffle that feels fair and one that starts arguments is visibility. Do the draw where entrants can see it: on a projector at the event, on a live stream, or as a recorded video posted with the result. Show the full list before spinning so people can find their own name. Spin once. Do not re-spin because the winner is “a friend of the organiser” — that is precisely when the recording earns its keep.
Paste the list from the same source you sold tickets from, so there is no gap between who paid and who is on the wheel. If someone bought three tickets, they appear three times, and everyone can see that.
Charity events: paste ticket numbers, project the wheel, draw the prizes in reverse order so the top prize is last. Office draws: Secret Santa order, who gets the parking space, who presents first — the wheel takes the blame. Classroom: every student who finished their reading log goes on the wheel; the winner picks Friday’s game. Social media giveaways: export the comments or entries, paste, record, post — our guide to picking a giveaway winner walks through the whole process including the mistakes that get creators accused of rigging.
A wheel treats every slice equally, which is exactly what you want for weighting: a person with three tickets gets three slices. Paste “Sam” three times and Sam has three times the chance of a one-ticket entrant. For draws with hundreds of tickets, paste the ticket numbers rather than names; the wheel stays legible and you match the number to your sales sheet afterwards. If a single entrant has a very large share (a hundred tickets in a draw of three hundred), say so before spinning — the percentages toggle makes the odds transparent.
Test the wheel with the real list before the event so you know it fits on the screen. Turn on Eliminate before the first spin, not after the same name has won twice. Start recording before you click. Save the entrant list as a preset in case the page is refreshed mid-draw. And announce the rules — how many prizes, in what order, whether one person can win twice — before the first spin, because changing them afterwards is what makes a fair draw look unfair.
If everyone wins something and the question is what, use the fortune wheel with prizes on the slices. For a giveaway run from social-media comments, the giveaway picker page is set up for that workflow. For picking a name with no prize attached (who goes first, who reads next) the plain name picker is simpler. And for a draw with thousands of entries, a list-based picker beats a wheel you cannot read.
