How Do Comment Giveaways Work?

Comment giveaways work by asking users to leave a comment on a post to enter a contest, with a winner chosen randomly or based on set criteria.

In a comment giveaway, participants enter by commenting on a specific post, usually on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or YouTube. Sometimes the giveaway asks for a specific type of comment — like tagging friends, answering a question, or sharing an opinion.

Brands use comment giveaways to boost engagement, reach new audiences, and build community. Tools like Gleam can help manage entries and choose winners fairly, ensuring transparency and making the process easier. Some giveaways use a random comment picker, while others choose the most creative or relevant response. Clear rules, deadlines, and instructions are key to running a successful comment-based giveaway.
