Randomly select winners and alternates for giveaways, contests, and raffles.
Paste participant names and choose how many winners to draw.
Winners are selected before the reveal animation starts.
Your participant list stays in your browser. No registration or account connection required.
A random winner picker is a free online tool that randomly selects winners from a list of participants. Paste usernames or names, remove duplicates, set how many winners and alternates you need, and run a draw in seconds.
ApiSeller's Random Winner Picker works directly in your browser. It does not access Instagram comments or social accounts, and it does not verify giveaway eligibility for you.
Run a simple giveaway draw in three steps.
Paste your participant list. Add one username or name per line, or use commas to separate entries.
Choose the number of winners and alternates. Remove duplicate entries if each person should have only one chance.
Run the draw, watch the optional quick reveal, then copy results or download them as TXT or PNG.
Winners and alternates are drawn without selecting the same entry twice in one draw. The tool uses the browser's secure random number generator where available.
Alternate winners can help when an original winner cannot be reached or does not meet the giveaway rules.
Your pasted list is processed locally in the browser. No account or API connection is needed, and the tool does not submit your participants to a server.
Copy results directly or download them for your own records. Keep a copy if you need to document the draw.
Choose settings that match the participation rules you announced.
| Setting | What It Does |
|---|---|
| Remove Duplicates | Keeps one entry per matching name, ignoring case. |
| Trim Spaces | Removes spaces before and after participant names. |
| Alternate Winners | Selects backups separately from primary winners. |
| Animate Winner Reveal | Shows a short visual shuffle after winners have already been selected. |
| Download PNG | Exports a shareable graphic with the selected winners and alternates. |
Fairness tip: Publish your giveaway rules before the draw. If someone is allowed multiple entries, disable duplicate removal; otherwise, keep it enabled.
Review entries and verify that participants meet your giveaway requirements before drawing.
Use consistent rules so the same username is not counted more times than intended.
Keep the winners, alternates and draw time together for your records or winner announcement.
