  3. 3. Set your rules — Filter by required keywords (e.g. "#giveaway"), minimum friend tags (@mentions), remove duplicates, and exclude suspected bots.
  4. 4. Spin the wheel — Click "Load into wheel & spin" to launch the draw. Screen-record the spin to post as transparent proof.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I paste comments from Instagram or TikTok directly? ▾

Yes. Copy your comments directly from your phone or browser, paste them into the text area. The tool automatically extracts usernames from formats like '@user: comment text' as well as plain usernames one per line.

How do I filter by 'must tag 2 friends'? ▾

Use the 'Minimum @ tags in comment' filter. Set it to 2 and only participants whose comments contain at least 2 @mentions will be kept. This is the standard giveaway rule 'tag 2 friends to enter'.

Can I paste from Google Sheets or Excel? ▾

Yes. Copy your column of names from Google Sheets, Excel or Word and paste directly. The tool handles one name per line, tab-separated columns (it uses the first column), and @username formats.

How do I pick multiple winners at once? ▾

Use the 'Number of winners' selector in the wheel section. Set it to 2, 3, or more and each spin selects that many unique winners from your list.

Can I use this as proof that my giveaway was fair? ▾

Yes. Screen-record the spin (with your participant list visible) and post the video. The visual wheel animation shows all participants in real time — there is nothing to hide and the result cannot be manipulated after the fact.
