Rafflecopter has proven to be a reliable choice for running giveaways, particularly when there are multiple types of entry involved. Users have found the platform easy to set up and appreciate its convenience for lead generation purposes. One common challenge in running giveaways directly through Instagram is the time-consuming process of managing entries. Rafflecopter offers a simpler alternative, eliminating the need to create spreadsheets and allowing users to easily manage their giveaways. Implementing contests is made simple and effortless with Rafflecopter, as users can sign up and select winners with minimal effort. Many users have specifically used Rafflecopter for social media giveaways, considering it one of the best platforms available for this purpose. Additionally, the affordability of Rafflecopter makes it accessible to a wide range of users who appreciate the difference it makes in how they run their giveaways.

Easy Setup: Many users have found the setup process of the product to be incredibly easy and straightforward. They appreciate how quickly they can get started with running contests without any hassle or complications.

Variety of Entry Actions: Users highly value the product's ability to offer a wide range of entry actions. This feature allows them to provide different ways for participants to engage and enter contests, resulting in increased participation and excitement.

Responsive Customer Service: The customer service provided by the product is consistently praised for its exceptional responsiveness. Users commend the fast, clear, and direct assistance they receive whenever they have questions or need support.

Missing API: Some users have expressed frustration over the lack of an API in the software, which limits its functionality and integration with other systems. They feel that having an API would greatly enhance their ability to customize and automate processes.

Outdated Knowledge Base Article: Several reviewers have mentioned that they are disappointed with the outdated information in the knowledge base article regarding the consideration of an API. These users indicate a lack of updates and progress on this front, which makes them question the commitment to improving the software.

Lack of Updated Integrated Email Service Providers: A number of users have pointed out that the list of integrated email service providers has not been updated for a long time. This suggests a lack of effort in keeping up with industry changes and advancements, making it difficult for businesses to connect with their preferred email marketing platforms.

Users commonly recommend the following:

  • The system can be adapted to any business, providing equally good results for personal or corporate use.
  • Utilize the system to reach more people and generate sign-ups for newsletters and marketing interaction.
  • Start with the free trial and then become a user.
  • Try the free version first to see if it suits your needs, and play around with it before going live.

Users emphasize the adaptability of the system, its marketing capabilities, and the importance of trying it out through a free trial period before committing.

We use Rafflecopter to host giveaways for select departments of our non-profit organization. Rafflecopter provides an easy to setup platform to quickly create a giveaway for lead generation. An example would be to giveaway a pair or running shoes.
  • Easy to setup
  • Provides a good variety of entry actions
  • Has a simple end user interface
  • Does not have an API. A knowledge base article saying they are considering one has was last updated 8 years ago.
  • The list of integrated email service providers has not been updated in a very long time.
  • Must login to download payment receipts--no emailed receipt.
I'd say that Rafflecopter is a good tool for a basic giveaway. It doesn't seem like they've made any substantial changes in several years. If you're looking to host a one-off or occasional giveaway, Rafflecopter will do what you need it to do, but if a giveaway platform is a major component of your marketing strategy, look elsewhere.
  • Refer a friend entry feature
  • Multiple entry options on major social networks
  • Entry by email list sign up
  • Easy method of lead generation if you have the right prize
  • Quick, easy setup that anyone can manage
Having used all three software platforms, I believe that both ShortStack and Woobox have surpassed Rafflecopter in terms of features set. It's been a few years since I've used Woobox and ShortStack so they may not be fully comparable any longer.

The users are part of the digital marketing team at a non-profit organization. We create giveaways on behalf of other departments of our organization.

IT does what we need at the moment, but if we consider creating more giveaway campaigns or have a large number of entires, we may look for another platform that integrates with our other tools.

At the time of purchase, the single most important factor was price.
The next time we are looking for giveaway software, we need one that can integrate with our other platforms. This could be through direct integrations created by the company or through Zapier.
  • Mailchimp
It was easy but very basic. No ability for customization.
  • Zapier
  • HubSpot
I have asked support in the last year and they have said they do not have plans to support Zapier or HubSpot.
  • Javascript widgets

They have what they have, no more, no less.
Unless you use the email service providers they already integrate with, don't expect anything else. Here's the list of their currently integrated ESPs.
  • MailChimp
  • AWeber
  • Constant Contact
  • Campaign Monitor
  • iContact
  • Mad Mimi
  • Infusionsoft
  • GetResponse
  • Mailjet
