How do I pick a random winner for an Instagram giveaway?

Collect the usernames of everyone who entered, remove duplicates so each person has one entry, leave out your own and team accounts, then draw at random. This picker does all four in your browser using a secure random number, and shows the time of the draw so you can screen-record it as proof.

It works on usernames you paste, so it needs no Instagram login and nothing you paste leaves the page. Instagram's Promotion Guidelines make you responsible for running the giveaway fairly, with official rules and eligibility terms.

Run a fair draw

  • Close entries at the time you announced, then copy the usernames of everyone who entered.
  • Paste them above, one per line, and add your own account and team members under Leave out.
  • Screen-record the draw, then announce the winner and message them from your real account.
  • Warn followers that you will never ask winners for money: fake "winner" accounts are a common scam.

Stay within Instagram's rules

Your giveaway needs official rules, eligibility terms, a release of Instagram by entrants and a line saying Instagram isn't involved. If a brand gave the prize, add the paid partnership label and #ad.

Giveaway picker FAQ

 

Is this Instagram giveaway picker free?

Yes. It's free, needs no login and runs in your browser, so the usernames you paste aren't sent or stored anywhere.

Can it read comments from my Instagram post automatically?

No. Reading comments needs your Instagram login, so this public tool works on usernames you paste. On Hypee, connected creators can see a post's comments in the Comments manager.

How do I make sure the draw is fair?

Give each person one entry, leave out your own and team accounts, use a random draw, and screen-record it with the time shown.

Send every entrant an automatic DM confirming their entry when they comment, with Hypee's free comment-to-DM automation.
