Instagram Giveaway Winner Picker
For draws run off a comment thread. Paste the handles you collected, spin once on camera, and post the clip — the visible draw is what stops the accusations before they start.
An Instagram giveaway winner picker is a free tool that selects a random winner from your list of entrants. Paste the usernames who commented or entered, spin the wheel live, and it lands on one fair, unbiased winner.
What is an instagram giveaway winner picker?
An Instagram giveaway winner picker is a spinning wheel loaded with the usernames that entered your giveaway. Spinning it chooses one entrant at random, and doing it live on a story or reel makes the draw visibly transparent — which is exactly what builds trust with your followers and keeps a contest credible.

What is on the Instagram Giveaway Winner Picker by default?
The instagram giveaway winner picker loads with these 8 options, so you can spin it straight away without setting anything up. Every one of them can be edited, removed, or replaced with your own list — the wheel redraws itself as you type, and nothing you enter is saved or sent anywhere.

How to use the instagram giveaway winner picker
- Collect your entrants. Copy the usernames of everyone who entered — for example the people who commented or tagged a friend — and paste them into the wheel.
- Clean the list. Remove duplicates and anyone who did not meet the entry rules so only valid entrants remain.
- Spin live and announce. Press SPIN on camera so followers see the draw, then announce the username the pointer lands on as your winner.
- Share it if you need it again. Press Share to copy a link that reopens this exact wheel, options and all. Useful for a class roster you spin every week, or for letting a group spin the same wheel from their own phones.
Frequently asked questions
How do I pick a winner from Instagram comments?
Copy the usernames that commented on your giveaway post, paste them into the wheel as a comma or line-separated list, then spin. The wheel selects one at random with an equal chance for everyone.
How do I choose more than one winner?
Spin to pick the first winner, remove that username, then spin again. Removing each drawn name keeps every pick fair and avoids repeats.
Is the Instagram giveaway winner picker free?
Yes, it is completely free with no account needed to run a draw.
How do I prove the draw was fair?
Run the spin live on a story or reel, or use the Share wheel button to share a link to the exact wheel so entrants can see the pool of names themselves.
Can I share a wheel with someone else?
Yes. Press Share and the link is copied to your clipboard. Anyone who opens it gets the wheel with your exact options already loaded, so a teacher can bookmark one link per class and a group can spin the same wheel from different phones. The options travel in the link itself — nothing is saved to an account, because there are no accounts.
Do I need an account to save a wheel?
No, and there is no account to make. A wheel is saved by keeping its share link — bookmark it, paste it into a lesson plan, or send it to whoever needs it. Because the options live in the URL rather than on a server, the link keeps working without anyone logging in.
