How to Pick Your Twitter/X Giveaway Winner

  1. 1

    Collect your qualifying entries

    For reply or comment giveaways, scroll through replies on your giveaway tweet and copy qualifying usernames. For retweet giveaways, click the retweet count to see retweeters (note: X/Twitter limits retweet visibility to ~100 on mobile; use desktop for full lists). For quote tweet contests, search your tweet URL to find all quotes.

  2. 2

    Paste entries into the wheel

    Open SpinWheelNames and paste all qualifying @usernames, one per line, into the entry panel. Exclude bots, duplicate accounts, and anyone who didn't meet the full entry requirements. The wheel scales to any number of entries.

  3. 3

    Spin and screenshot the result

    Hit Spin. Take a full-page screenshot of the winner popup showing the wheel and the winning name. This screenshot is your proof of fair selection — post it as a quote tweet of the original giveaway or as a reply.

  4. 4

    Announce publicly and DM the winner

    Tweet the winner screenshot with a public @mention. Quote tweet your original giveaway post with the result. DM the winner with prize details and a deadline to claim. Unclaimed prizes after a deadline can be re-spun.

Why Twitter Creators Use Our Giveaway Picker

No API or App Authorization Required

Third-party Twitter giveaway tools require you to grant OAuth access to your account. SpinWheelNames needs nothing — no permissions, no login, no app installation. Paste your list and spin.

Screenshot Proof Your Followers Respect

A screenshot of the spinning wheel showing all entries, with the winner highlighted, provides visible proof that's harder to dismiss than a bot announcement tweet. Your followers can see their name was in the pool.

Works for Any Entry Type

Whether entries came from retweets, replies, quote tweets, or a combination, you collect the qualifying usernames yourself and paste them in. No integration limitations mean any giveaway format works.

Multiple Entry Weighting by Hand

Reward extra engagement manually: if your rules give retweeters 1 entry and quote tweeters 3 entries, simply add the username once per entry earned before spinning. The wheel selects proportionally.

Ways to Use This Tool

Retweet-to-Enter Giveaways

The most common Twitter giveaway format. Collect your list of retweeters from the desktop retweet viewer, paste into the wheel, spin, and post the result as a quote tweet of the original.

Reply or Comment Contests

Ask followers to reply with their answer, a photo, or a specific phrase to enter. Collect qualifying replies and spin to pick the winner — works for brand trivia, caption contests, and fan art entries.

Follower Milestone Celebrations

Celebrate hitting 1k, 10k, or 100k followers with a milestone giveaway. Announce entry criteria in a pinned tweet and spin after a set deadline.

Brand Partnership Giveaways

When a brand sponsors your Twitter giveaway, both you and the brand can verify fairness independently. The screenshot of the spin provides the sponsor with auditable proof that selection was unbiased.

What Users Say

I used to use a Twitter raffle bot but the API changes broke everything. Now I just collect usernames manually, spin the wheel, and post the screenshot. Way more transparent and followers love it.

The screenshot of the wheel with everyone's username visible is the best way to prove a Twitter giveaway isn't rigged. I've had zero drama since switching to this method.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get a list of everyone who retweeted my giveaway post?

On Twitter/X desktop, click the retweet count on your post to open the retweeters panel. You can see up to approximately 100 recent retweeters. For higher volume giveaways, third-party tools like TweetDelete, Circleboom, or Social Blade may help export retweeter lists. Alternatively, you can use the Twitter/X Advanced Search to find retweets of your post manually.

Can I give bonus entries to people who both retweeted and replied?

Yes. Add the username once for each qualifying action. If someone retweeted (1 entry) and also quoted tweeted (2 entries), add their username 3 times to the wheel. The spin will give them proportionally higher odds, which matches your stated rules.

What should I do if the winner doesn't respond within my deadline?

If your giveaway rules include a claim deadline (recommended: 48–72 hours), and the winner doesn't DM you or respond to your public @mention, you can re-spin. Remove the original winner from the wheel and spin again. Tweet publicly that the original winner didn't claim and a new pick was made — this protects you from accusations of substituting the winner for someone else.

Does this work for Twitter/X giveaways with thousands of entries?

Yes, though collecting large Twitter entry lists manually is labour-intensive. For giveaways with 500+ qualifying entries, consider using a dedicated entry collection tool (like Gleam or Rafflecopter) to gather emails or form submissions, then export the participant list and paste it into SpinWheelNames for the actual winner selection.
