Frequently Asked Questions
Can I manually draw winners for my Sweepstakes?
No, manual drawing is only available for Raffles. If you’re running a Sweepstakes, you must use Givebacks' drawing system due to legal requirements. Learn more in our guide on drawing raffle and sweepstakes winners.
What information is included in the entry numbers export?
The export includes a complete list of all entry numbers that were sold in your Raffle. This gives you all the entry numbers needed to conduct your own manual drawing using any method you prefer.
Where do I find the option to export entry numbers?
Go to Campaigns in the left menu, select your Campaign, then select View Raffle Entries. The “Export Entries” button is located in the lower-left corner of the screen.
Can I export entry numbers before my Raffle ends?
Yes, you can export entry numbers at any time during or after your Raffle. This allows you to prepare for your drawing or conduct multiple drawings throughout your Campaign.
Why would I manually draw winners instead of using Givebacks' system?
Some organizations prefer to conduct public drawings at events or use specific drawing methods for transparency. Exporting entry numbers allows you to draw winners in person while still managing entries through Givebacks.
