Can I Use a Random Picker for My YouTube Giveaway?

Using a random picker is one of the most trusted ways to select a winner for your YouTube giveaway. These tools help ensure that winners are selected fairly and meet all entry requirements. This not only protects your brand but also ensures compliance with YouTube’s contest rules.

A platform like Gleam can track actions like video comments, subscriptions, or even external entries like newsletter signups. You can define how entries are weighted, set specific entry limits, and randomly draw winners from eligible participants.

Using a Gleam's winner picker is also a great way to build trust with your audience. You can even run live draws using Gleam’s built-in features — showing your community exactly how the process works and reinforcing fairness.
