A spinning wheel is the most transparent way to pick a giveaway winner: everyone can see the names, watch it spin, and trust the result. No hidden formula, no "trust me", just a visible, random landing. It also makes the moment feel fun and fair, which matters when there's a prize on the line.
Add the entrants, type or paste each name as an option on the Wheel tab.
Spin, the wheel accelerates and slows to a random segment, landing on one winner.
Announce the result, it's shown clearly on screen, and logged in your history.
Multiple winners? Remove the last winner and spin again for 2nd, 3rd place.
Why a wheel beats a plain draw
Transparency, viewers see all entries and the spin, so the result feels legitimate.
Engagement, the animation builds suspense, great for live streams and events.
Flexibility, weight certain entries more heavily if your rules allow bonus entries.
Is the winner truly random?
Yes, TossGenie chooses the winning segment using your browser's cryptographic random generator, so every entrant has a fair chance (proportional to any weighting you set). Nothing is pre-decided.
