Frequently asked questions
How does each person find out who they got?
Everyone who joins gets a private link that shows only their own match and that person's wishlist. After the draw, the organizer can copy each person's link to send by text or email.
Can I stop couples from drawing each other?
Yes. Add exclusion pairs (couples, roommates, parents and kids) before the draw. If the rules make a fair draw impossible, you'll be told before anything changes.
What if someone joins after the names are drawn?
Undo the draw, let them join, and draw again. Everyone's private link will show their new match.
Can the organizer take part too?
Yes. The organizer only sees everyone's matches if they choose "See all matches", so you can play without spoiling your own.
How many people do I need?
At least three. With only two people, each person would know who has them.
