Giveaways

Giveaways automatically draw winners from chat and optionally provide a wheel overlay for OBS. You control mode, participation, duration, and drawing directly in the dashboard.

Dashboard overview

On this page you set mode, join keyword, and duration, track the status, manage participants, and control the wheel. Below you find chat messages and the OBS overlay link.

Mode and participation

There are two modes: Keyword (join via a keyword like !join) and Active users (participation through active chat during the timeframe). You can also restrict participation to subs or followers.

Duration and timer

You can set a duration in minutes (1 to 1440) or run the giveaway without a timer. Without a timer it stays open until you stop it manually.

Chat messages & placeholders

You can enable start and winner announcements and a join confirmation in keyword mode. Texts can be saved as templates or reset. Important placeholders:

• Start (Keyword): {keyword}, {minutes}, {channel}
• Start (Active): {minutes}, {channel}
• Winner: {login}, {display}, {channel}
• Join confirmation: {login}, {display}, {keyword}, {channel}

Drawing and winners

You can draw winners and decide whether to stop the giveaway afterwards. Winners are saved to prevent duplicate draws. The current winner list remains visible.

Participant list & management

The participant list shows all entries and marks subs. Entries can be removed manually if needed.

Overlay

Enable the wheel overlay and use the OBS link as a browser source. The overlay shows participants and the draw live.
