For hosts who need multiple winners—try SlotVail Premium raffle
When you sell an experience, one winner is often not enough. Fan-meet seats, multi-day slots, charity places—SlotVail Premium raffle is built for multiple winners from the start. Online entry, auto-draw, live results, and winner-only charging all sit in your host workflow. You do not need a separate raffle app or lottery picker alongside it.
What Premium raffle gives you
Choose Premium raffle in experience setup and these pieces are ready to use:
- Multiple winners — set a seat count and select that many participants.
- Auto-draw — when entry closes, the server runs the draw so you are less likely to miss a button mid-stream.
- Fair raffle — the server is the source of truth; PC and mobile see the same result.
- Online raffle + payments — entry is an authorization hold; winners are charged, losers are released.
- Live-stream raffle — entry and reveal stay inside the stream UI.
This is not a generic prize-draw spinner. It is a raffle format for selling experience seats.
Built for hosts like you if…
If any of these sound familiar, we want you to try Premium raffle once:
- You want an online raffle tied to ticket price to fill experience seats.
- You need a fair multi-person draw for events or live streams.
- Losers must never be left with a charge.
- You are tired of “form → manual draw → separate payment.”
- You want everything inside SlotVail—no extra raffle tool.
How it feels as a host
1. Set the entry window
Choose start and end (up to 7 days). That window is the entry period, so participants know how long they can join.
2. Set multiple winner seats
Enter the winner count. The more seats you sell by raffle, the more this setting matters. You can also plan seats across experience dates.
3. Participants enter with an authorization
Entrants place a hold at ticket price. This is not a capture yet.
4. Auto-draw at period end
When entry closes, auto-draw runs. Results sync on the live page. Early close is there when you need to wrap sooner.
The reveal is theater. Correctness lives on the server. — SlotVail Premium raffle design
Fairness and weighted draws
A fair raffle means the outcome is not decided only on your device—easy to explain to participants. Premium raffle keeps the server as source of truth.
It can also support weighted draws (for example ticket consumption in Secret mode). When equal-odds random draw is not enough, you can design probability with rules disclosed.
Charging that still works with multiple winners
More winners means loser handling matters more. The rule stays simple:
- Winners — charged + result email.
- Losers — authorization released only (no charge).
Premium raffle finishes the money side of the online raffle—not just an on-stage prize handoff.
