A raffle wheel that draws from your guest list

Add a Raffle or Door prize game to your RSVPlinks event, list the prizes, and press Draw. The live screen spins a prize wheel of your guests' names for each prize, smallest prize first and the grand prize last. Draw from everyone who's coming or only guests checked in at the door; each reroll keeps the first pick on record.

The prize wheel

A lit-up wheel of every guest still in the running spins, ticks past its pegs, slows and lands on the winner, with the prize named and confetti on the name.

Sample names, drawn in your browser with the same rules as a real game. Nothing is saved.

How to run a raffle or door prize drawing online

  1. 1

    Add a raffle or door prize

    Pick Raffle, Door prize, Random guest chooser or Next book-club host from Party Games.

  2. 2

    List the prizes

    Up to 20, in draw order. A winner with no prize is shown as Winner 1, 2…

  3. 3

    Choose who's in

    Everyone attending by default, or guests opt in on the rsvp form, or players you add. Leave out hosts, and past winners of your other draws.

  4. 4

    Draw

    Every winner is picked at once and stored, so nothing can change on the night.

  5. 5

    Reveal on the wheel

    Each Next spins for the next prize, last prize first. Reroll a pick if a winner has gone home.

Winners of this event's other draws sit this one out.

What guests see

  • The rules and the prizes on the event page, or by scanning the game's QR code.
  • Each winner as you reveal them, on the event page.
  • Nothing to buy: RSVPlinks never sells raffle tickets or takes money for a game.

On the big screen

  • The wheel holds every guest still in the running and spins once per prize, grand prize last.
  • Reroll this pick under the wheel draws again when a winner isn't there; the first pick stays on record.
  • Skip jumps to the result and Replay plays it again. Neither changes who won: every result is stored before it plays, so a refresh or a second screen shows the same thing.
  • Full screen, synthesised sound you can mute, and buttons along the top that switch between your event's games without leaving full screen (keys 1 to 9).
  • QR code puts the game's page on the big screen for the room to scan.
  • Preview the draw rehearses with your players, topped up with sample names, and saves nothing.

Questions

Can I sell raffle tickets with this?

No. Games are for fun: RSVPlinks handles no money for raffles or any game. The wheel draws from your guests, the people who replied or the ones you add.

What order are the prizes drawn in?

Every winner is picked when you press Draw. The live screen then reveals them from the last prize to the first, so the grand prize comes at the end.

What if the winner already went home?

Press Reroll this pick. A new winner is drawn for that prize, and the first pick is kept on the game's record.

Is there a free random name picker?

Yes: the free random name picker draws one or more names from a pasted list, no account needed. The game adds your guest list, prizes, check-in and the wheel.

How much does it cost to run a raffle or door prize drawing with RSVPlinks?

$6 or 1 credit per event, paid once, for the Party Games add-on. It unlocks every game on that event (up to 12), and a free event can buy it: no paid plan needed. A free event's games hold up to 200 players; paid plans hold up to 500.

Do guests need an app or an account?

No. Guests play from your event page, a QR code or the private link in their email, on any phone or computer.
