How the Giveaway Winner Picker works

Running a fair giveaway means every entrant needs a genuinely equal shot, and the process should be easy to explain and reproduce if anyone asks how the winner was chosen. This tool takes your full entry list — including intentional duplicates for people with extra entries — shuffles it with a cryptographically secure Fisher–Yates shuffle, and reveals the winner(s) from the top.

For social media giveaways, a common workflow is to export or copy your list of commenters or entrants (one per line, duplicated per extra entry method such as a follow, share, or tag), paste it here, and screen-record or screenshot the draw for transparency with your audience.

How to use it

1
Paste your entriesAdd one entry per line. If someone entered multiple times, list their name that many times — each line is one chance.
2
Set the number of winnersDraw a single grand-prize winner, or several winners for multiple prizes at once.
3
DrawEvery entry has an exactly equal chance; winners are drawn without repeats so nobody wins twice in the same draw.

Frequently asked questions

How do I give someone extra entries?

List their name or handle multiple times — once per entry they've earned — since each line is treated as one equally-weighted chance.

Can I draw multiple winners for different prizes?

Yes, set the winner count to the number of prizes; winners are drawn without repeats, so the same entrant can't win twice in a single draw.

Is this suitable for a legally regulated sweepstakes?

For giveaways with legal or regulatory requirements, check your local rules on required documentation and disclosures — this tool provides a fair mechanical draw but doesn't handle legal compliance.
