Run your raffle without the chaos.

No passwords. No apps.
No confusion.

How it works

Four steps. No training required.

1

Set it up

Name your event, add your prizes, pick how people will enter. The wizard adapts to what you're running: a holiday party, a conference, an open house, a school raffle. Short on time? Tell us what you want and we’ll set it up for you.

2

Get your people in

Hit “Email All” and every participant gets a personal Magic Link. No app, no password. In person? Post a QR at the door, or set a tablet at the door in kiosk mode. Under a minute per person.

3

People enter your raffle

Scanning the QR or tapping the link can be the whole entry: one pool, draw whenever you're ready. Or let them spread their tickets across the prizes they actually want, with photos and live entry counts. Under 60 seconds on any phone.

4

Run the draw & share results

One click to draw winners. Put it on the big screen with animated reveals and grand-prize suspense, or run it quietly and email results to everyone. Every draw is recorded, timestamped, and verifiable.

What's unique

What makes SimplyRaffle different.

Live draw on the big screen

One click draws the winner. Put it on the projector with an animated reveal and extra suspense for the grand prize, then leave a full-screen winners board up on the TV, the projector, or everyone’s results page. Or run it quietly and email the results.

A raffle set up in minutes

Tell the Magic Setup Wizard about your event in plain English. It fills in the name, the draw time, how people enter, and wording that fits your crowd, so your raffle is ready in minutes.

People pick the prizes they want

Everyone spreads their tickets across the prizes they actually want, with photos and live entry counts. No more guessing which basket someone meant.

Set a draw time and walk away

Put the draw on the calendar and it runs itself: entries open, entries close, winners are drawn and emailed. Your dashboard tells you plainly whether it will run without you.

Import your spreadsheet

Upload your participant list and let SimplyRaffle do the work. Everyone gets their own entry link in one click.

In person? Any way they like.

Post a QR at the door or the register, or set a tablet out as a walk-up kiosk. It all lands in the same raffle as your emailed links.

Corporate event
“We had an outstanding experience using SimplyRaffle for our annual corporate event. The digital raffle prize portal was a huge success and made the entire raffle process seamless, engaging, and enjoyable for all our guests. The portal is incredibly user-friendly, easy to set up, and offers great customization options that allowed us to tailor it to our specific needs. One thing that truly set SimplyRaffle apart was their exceptional customer service! Their team went above and beyond at every step, providing prompt support and guidance and ensuring everything went smoothly from start to finish. Our guests loved the experience, and the positive feedback we received was overwhelming. I highly recommend SimplyRaffle, and we’ll certainly return for our future events!”
Shaye H. — Corporate Event Organizer
Open house
“I’ve used SimplyRaffle at both an open house and a car show now, and it’s become my go-to for any event where I want to actually capture who showed up. At the car show we pulled in 44 entries: real names, real emails, no clipboard, no manual data entry. People scan the QR code, enter, and they’re in. Setup took minutes and the live draw was a great way to wrap things up. If you’re doing any kind of event and want to walk away with real contacts instead of a stack of business cards, this is it.”
Matt — Vetted Real Estate
Conference
“We really wanted conference delegates to be able to scan 1 QR code at our stand to enter the raffle. But we wanted a secondary QR code at a private event at the conference that enabled those attendees an extra 10 entries. I didn’t want to have to waste paper and time by filling in all those raffle tickets. And thought a solution would be impossible to find. Then I found Simply Raffle.”
Lauren from an Australian business
School fundraiser
“Last year we did our Fun Run raffle the old-fashioned way. Tickets in a hat, a spreadsheet someone had to constantly update, parents stopping me at pickup asking which prize they selected. This year I set it up in SimplyRaffle in about twenty minutes, sent out the magic links, and ran the draw live in front of the whole school. For families, it couldn't have been easier. No accounts to create, no passwords. They just clicked the link and entered. It was so unbelievably easy.”
Dawn — PTG President

It started with a fun run.

Dawn, from the last review, is my wife. She ran our school’s Color Fun Run raffle and sat at the kitchen table every night typing paper tickets into a spreadsheet. The donation tool handled the money; nothing ran the raffle. She asked me to build something that would just do it, and that became SimplyRaffle. She was user number one.

No ads, no trackers

No ad networks, pixels or third-party analytics on the pages your people use to enter.

An important difference

We’re the drawing tool.
Not the payment processor.

You already know how to collect ticket money. We just run the raffle.

What we do

  • ✓Run the raffle: entries, prizes, who gets in
  • ✓Draw the winners live on the big screen
  • ✓Email everyone the results
  • ✓Give you a report of entries and winners for your records

What we don’t do

  • ✗Collect ticket money from your people
  • ✗Hold or process the money your raffle raises
  • ✗Take a percentage of your raffle
  • ✗Ask your guests to tip us at checkout
If a ticket is $5, you get $5.

Givebutter, Zeffy and RallyUp are payment platforms: they process the money your supporters pay and earn through fees, optional checkout tips, or both. We never touch the money. Collect it however you already do, at the table, through Square or Venmo, or on your own donation page. Running a free employee raffle? Then there’s no money to collect at all.

Pricing

One flat fee per event.
No hidden costs. No surprises.

FAQ

Common questions

Re-draw that prize. The button is there on every kind of raffle — you don't have to decide up front that you might need it, and you don't restart the event. Before it re-draws it tells you exactly what will happen: a new winner is picked from everyone still eligible, and the person you replaced stays on your draw list greyed out, so the change is visible rather than hidden. If you've already emailed your winners it says so first, because that email can't be taken back. Two limits worth knowing: there have to be eligible people left in the pool for that prize, and a draw you've already cleared can't be re-drawn.
Yes. Quick Setup ($49, any paid plan): tell us in an email how you want your raffle to run and we set every option to match, adjusting by email until you open entries; no call, nothing on draw day, and the $49 counts toward Concierge if you upgrade. Concierge Setup ($199, any paid plan): tell us what you want your event to be and we set it up — anything the product can do — then walk you through it on a call before anyone else sees it. Draw-day Standby ($149) reserves a direct phone and text line for the draw itself — the clock starts when you text “we're up next,” not when the agenda says. What each includes.
Yes. Turn on Test Mode from your dashboard and SimplyRaffle fills in a few sample prizes and a roster of stand-in participants, already entered, so there's nothing to set up first. Take it all the way through to the draw and watch the whole reveal on the big screen. Turn Test Mode back off and the samples disappear — your own prizes and participants are never touched. No emails go out and it doesn't use up your event, so practice as many times as you like.
No. Participants get a personal link by email, scan a QR at the event, or enter on a tablet at the door, and you can offer any mix. No account, no app, no password. Under 60 seconds on any phone.
No. SimplyRaffle is the drawing tool: the software picks winners when the organizer presses Draw, generates the audit log, and emails results. You run your raffle. We don't process payments and we don't touch your supporters' money. You collect ticket money however you already collect money: cash at the table, check in the offering plate, Stripe, Square, Venmo, your existing donation portal. The only money that comes to us is your flat platform fee — paid by you, the organizer, once.
Givebutter, Zeffy, and RallyUp are full payment platforms — they process every dollar your supporters give. That's how they can offer "free" service: they earn through payment-processing fees and optional checkout tips. That's the business model.

SimplyRaffle is a different category. We're the drawing tool, not the payment processor. We don't take your supporters' money, so we can't ask them for a tip. We charge a flat fee — paid by you, once — and that's it. Your supporters pay exactly the ticket price you posted.
