The Relaunched Rafflecopter

We brought Rafflecopter back.

The original Rafflecopter shut down in October 2025 after 15 years serving millions of creators and brands. We acquired the domain and rebuilt the platform from scratch — fairer, faster, more beautiful.

How we got here

15 years of history, one shutdown, and one relaunch.

2010

Original Rafflecopter founded

The original Rafflecopter launched as a widget that let bloggers and brands run giveaways on their own websites. Over 15 years it became the dominant tool in the category with millions of draws processed.

Oct 2025

Shutdown announced

The original company discontinued service, leaving creators and brands scrambling for alternatives. The domain was released into the wild.

Early 2026

Domain acquired

Our team acquired the rafflecopter.app domain specifically to rebuild the platform from the ground up — addressing long-standing user complaints about fairness, bot accounts, and boring draws.

April 2026

Rafflecopter v2.6 relaunched

Completely rebuilt with modern tech: 7 cinematic animation themes, SHA-256 cryptographic proof, AI anti-bot filtering, live draw rooms, and a pay-per-draw model (no subscription). Everything a modern creator actually needs.

What we stand for

The principles we rebuilt the platform around.

Fair draws, verifiable

Every winner is selected with a cryptographically secure random generator. We publish the seed + SHA-256 hash of the participant list so anyone can verify the draw was fair.

No subscription traps

Pay per draw. Free for small giveaways, one-time payment for big ones. No auto-renewing monthly fees.

Cinematic by default

Seven animated draw themes with procedural audio. Because picking a winner should feel like an event, not a lookup.

Creator-first

Built by people who run giveaways themselves. Every feature exists because we or someone we know needed it.
