Why use a public draw

If the organizer picks the number, doubt always remains. Using the winning number of an official draw (for example, the national lottery) makes it impartial and verifiable: nobody can know or influence it beforehand. The rule must be published before the date, with the exact formula.

The formula

The winning ticket is the remainder of dividing the winning number by the number of tickets, plus the first number. Runners-up are the next tickets in order. It is a simple rule anyone can repeat with a calculator. For more context read how winners are selected.

Frequently asked questions

How do I print the tickets?

Press “Print tickets”. An A4 sheet with dotted cut lines is prepared; choose “Save as PDF” or your printer. Set margins to “Default”.

What is the control sheet?

A .csv with every number and empty columns to note buyer, phone and whether they paid. Open it with Excel or Google Sheets.

Is it legal to run a raffle?

It depends on the country, on the prize and on whether the money is for a cause. Many paid raffles require authorization. Ask the gaming authority or a professional.
