Giveaways: how to run a giveaway in chat
Run a giveaway by keyword or among active chatters and pick a fair random winner.
Fair giveaways for your community
A giveaway is a great way to thank your viewers. In Twir you create a giveaway in the dashboard, and viewers join by sending a keyword in chat. Alternatively, pick a winner from everyone who is currently active in chat.
Conditions make giveaways fair: a minimum watch time, number of messages, spent channel points, follow age, or an active subscription. The winner is picked uniformly at random from eligible participants and announced in chat, and the results are saved.
