Instagram, TikTok and Facebook giveaway picker: choose your winner

SocialPicker is a random comment picker that chooses the winner of a giveaway from the comments on your posts. Paste the link to the post, reel or video, set your rules, and the draw randomly picks from everyone who meets them.

It works with Instagram, TikTok and Facebook, and you can combine several posts into a single giveaway. Don't need a social network? Pick from a list of names with the wheel.

How to pick a giveaway winner on social media

  1. Choose the networkTap Instagram, TikTok or Facebook, or “Name list” if your giveaway isn't on a social network.
  2. Paste the post linkCopy it from the app with the share button. We'll show you the post so you can confirm it's the right one.
  3. Set your rulesToday you can turn on one entry per person. More filters, like required keywords or excluded accounts, are coming soon.
  4. Reveal winners and alternatesThe draw picks at random and you reveal it with a photo carousel and confetti. The result is saved with a link you can share.

Tips for a fair giveaway

  • Post the rules before you start: what people need to do to enter, the deadline and how you'll contact the winner.
  • Ask for something that shows up in the comment, like tagging friends or using a hashtag: for now, "one entry per person" keeps anyone from repeating, and more filters are coming soon.
  • Pick alternates so you don't have to redo the draw if the winner doesn't reply.
  • Record the reveal and share it along with the winner's name.

Social media giveaway questions

How do I pick a winner for an Instagram giveaway?

Copy the link to the post or reel, paste it into SocialPicker and set your rules. We load the comments and the draw randomly picks winners and alternates from everyone who meets them.

Does it work as a random comment picker for TikTok and Facebook too?

Yes. If your giveaway asks people to comment or tag friends, the draw loads the post's comments and picks the winner at random from everyone who commented.

Is it free to run a social media giveaway?

Yes, to get started. It's free up to a maximum number of comments per post; if yours has more, you pay for a tier based on the number of comments, and you always see the price before you confirm. The name wheel is free.

Do I have to connect my account or give you my password?

No. We only use the post's public link. You don't need to sign up to run a giveaway, either.

Which networks are available?

Instagram (posts and reels), TikTok (videos) and Facebook (public posts from Pages or profiles). YouTube is coming soon.

Does it work in any country?

Yes. SocialPicker runs in your phone or computer browser with nothing to install, whether you're in the United States, Mexico, Brazil or anywhere else.
