Frequently Asked Questions
Creating your first Eventgroove Fundraising raffle?
Here are answers to our most often asked questions.
Is it legal to run a raffle?
Federal regulations allow 501(c)(3) nonprofits to run raffles, but each state (and sometimes a city or county) has its own regulations.
Check your local raffle laws, and contact us for guidance if you want more information. We can’t give you legal advice, but we can provide orientation and general guidelines.
What’s the difference between an entry and a ticket?
For instance, a $10 ticket can carry 10 entries for your donor (or 10 chances to win). You decide on the entry value. We find that offering more entries per ticket has a positive impact on sales!
When you assign an entry value to your tickets, it also makes it possible to offer entries as an incentive for people to promote your raffle, at no extra cost or impact to your ticket price.
How do I know the drawing is random?
When you create an online raffle with Eventgroove Fundraising, our system uses an impartial, verified randomization algorithm for choosing winners.
It’s the most unbiased way to draw raffle winners, and all entries and ticket sales (printed or virtual) are accounted for when the draw is done.
Our algorithm has also been tested and certified as random by a third-party testing facility.
