Does Gleam Pick the Winner For Me?

Yes! We draw winners at random from your valid entries, using Random.org. Checking entries, contacting the winner and sending the prize are up to you. We don't email winners or ship prizes.

1. Review your entries. On the Actions / Entries tab, look over anything we've marked Invalid. Invalid entries are left out of the draw, so make sure you agree with what we flagged
2. Draw your winner. Open the Winners tab and click Draw Winners. Drawing live on stream? Turn on Hide winner details
3. Check the winner. We can't verify X actions, Instagram follows, Facebook likes, or TikTok and Threads follows with the platform. Check those against the winner's handle, and if they didn't do it, invalidate the entry and draw again
4. Contact the winner by email, and give them the time your terms give to claim (7 days in Gleam's default terms)
5. Send the prize. Shipping, gift cards and codes are yours to handle
6. Announce your winner in the widget, on social or to your list

Here's the whole draw on video, from checking invalid actions to announcing your winners in the widget:

If your winner doesn't reply by your deadline, draw again from the remaining valid entries. For a winner email you can copy, see whether Gleam notifies winners.
