FAQ

Giveaway and randomizer FAQ

How do I pick an Instagram giveaway winner?

Paste your giveaway post link into SOM. Comments load from the public link — no Instagram password. Duplicates can be removed, then a winner is picked at random. Some Instagram cases use the official Meta Graph API (business/creator). Share a transparency certificate in Stories if you want. Separate CSV/username export for your IG/FB posts uses Meta Login.

What link do I need for an Instagram giveaway?

Use the public post or Reels URL from Share or the browser. Private profiles or unavailable posts cannot be read. No Instagram password is required.

Do I need Instagram login or password for a giveaway?

No for a standard giveaway: a public post or Reels URL is enough — no Instagram password. Meta Login is only for separate CSV/username export on the Export page. Some business/creator cases use the official Meta Graph API.

Can I pick an Instagram winner by likes?

No. SOM works only with comments under the post — not likes. State clearly in your rules that entry = comment.

How many free Instagram giveaways can I run?

Limits are shared across platforms, including Instagram: 3 giveaways per day, up to 100 comments each — with filters and a transparency certificate. No card required to start. For larger pools or more daily draws, choose a paid plan.

Is there a free randomizer for Instagram giveaway winners?

Yes. SOM lets you run 3 giveaways per day for free (up to 100 comments each) on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and Threads. Paste a post link — SOM detects the platform and collects comments. No card required to start.

How do I pick a winner on Threads from comments?

Copy the public link to your Threads post (threads.net or threads.com) and paste it into SOM. Comments load without login or password; you can remove duplicates or filter by keywords/hashtags, then SOM picks a winner at random. Share a transparency certificate if you want. CSV comment export is for Instagram and Facebook (Meta Login), not Threads.

What link do I need for a Threads giveaway?

Use the public post URL from the browser address bar or Threads Share. Both threads.net and threads.com work. Private posts or locked profiles cannot be read. No Meta/Threads password is required.

How is a Threads giveaway different from Instagram in SOM?

Both start from a public post link and a random winner pick. Some Instagram cases also use Meta Graph API (business/creator); CSV/username export is separate via Meta Login on the Export page. Threads runs from a public link without Meta Login. Filters are the same: duplicates and keywords/hashtags — no tagged-friends filter.

How many free Threads giveaways can I run?

Separate CSV/username export uses Meta Login on the Export page — not required for a standard giveaway.

Do I need Facebook login or page access for a giveaway?

No for a standard giveaway: a public post URL is enough — no Facebook OAuth and no password. Meta Login is only for separate CSV/username export (Instagram and Facebook) on the Export page. SOM is an official Meta partner for those flows.

Can I pick a Facebook winner by likes or reactions?

No. SOM works only with comments under the post — not likes, reactions, or shares. State clearly in your rules that entry = comment.

How many free Facebook giveaways can I run?

How do I pick a winner on YouTube from comments?

Copy the public YouTube video link (youtube.com or youtu.be) and paste it into SOM. Comments load without Google login or channel access; you can remove duplicates or filter by keywords/hashtags, then SOM picks a winner at random. Share a transparency certificate if you want. CSV export is for Instagram and Facebook (Meta Login), not YouTube.

What link do I need for a YouTube giveaway?

Use the public video URL from Share or the browser (youtube.com / youtu.be). Private, unlisted-without-access, or comment-disabled videos cannot be processed. No Google/YouTube password is required.

Do I need YouTube channel access or Google login?

How many free YouTube giveaways can I run?

How do I run a social media contest and pick a winner?

1) Publish giveaway rules on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, or Threads. 2) Paste the post link into SOM and set the number of winners. 3) SOM loads comments, applies filters, and picks winners with a fair random algorithm. 4) Announce results and optionally show a Stories animation or transparency certificate.

How do TikTok giveaway randomizers compare?

Look for: automatic comment loading from a link, duplicate removal, transparent algorithm, result certificate, and support for large comment volumes. SOM works from a public link without manual copy-paste, offers a free tier (3 giveaways/day), and paid plans for unlimited comments.

How do I pick a winner on TikTok from comments?

How is a TikTok giveaway different from Instagram in SOM?

Both start from a public link and a random winner pick. Some Instagram cases also use Meta Graph API; CSV/username export is separate via Meta Login. TikTok runs from a public video link without Meta Login. Filters are the same: duplicates and keywords/hashtags — no tagged-friends filter.

Does SOM work for contests with hundreds or thousands of comments?

Yes. SOM handles any scale — from 100 comments to tens of thousands. The free tier covers up to 100 comments; paid plans remove comment limits and increase giveaway capacity.

How do I start a giveaway in SOM?

Paste a post link from Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, or Threads, set the number of winners, and click Pick winner. SOM collects comments, applies filters, and selects winners randomly. Your first 3 giveaways per day are free.

Is there a SOM app for iOS?

Yes. SOM is available on iPhone in the App Store and on Android in Google Play. Your account syncs with the web version — giveaway history, results, and settings stay in your profile.

Is SOM safe to use for Instagram giveaways?

Yes. SOM never asks for or stores social passwords. Comment giveaways run from a public post link; official Meta Login / Graph API is for Instagram/Facebook export and cases where the platform requires business or creator access. You control permissions. Every giveaway can include a transparency certificate.

What participant filters does SOM support?

Duplicate filter (one person = one entry; leave duplicates on if multiple comments should mean multiple chances) and keyword/hashtag filter. You can review winners before announcing. There is no filter by number of tagged friends in a comment.

Why does Instagram need a business or creator account?

When comments are loaded via Meta Graph API, Meta only grants access to business or creator accounts — a platform rule, not a password workaround. Many homepage giveaways start from a public post link alone. Meta Login is required for exporting comments (CSV / usernames) from your Instagram and Facebook posts.

How are winners actually selected?

After comments load, SOM uses a cryptographically fair random algorithm. You can re-run or pick again if needed. Each result can include a transparency certificate for Stories or your post.

What other tools does SOM offer?

The main comment giveaway randomizer on the homepage (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, Threads) plus 3 free utilities: list randomizer, online dice, and number generator — all without sign-up.
