Add prizes

Set out what people can win — and watch for permit thresholds.

Last reviewed 5 June 2026

Add the prizes people are playing for. For each one you'll set:

  • Tier — where the prize sits (for example, a major prize vs minor prizes).
  • Category — what kind of prize it is.
  • Value — what it's worth. This matters for more than bragging rights (see below).
  • Image — a photo of the prize, which makes a real difference to ticket sales.

Got a long list of prizes? You can import them all at once from a spreadsheet instead of adding them one by one.

Need a hand with the title? ✨

Once you've written a prize description (about a sentence is enough), tap Suggest title from description under the title field — RaffleLink will draft a short, punchy title from what you've written. Useful when you've described the prize in detail and want a snappier label without the brain-tax.

If you already have a title written, you'll be asked to confirm before it's replaced.

Prize value and permits

Your total prize pool can affect whether your raffle needs a permit. As you add prizes, RaffleLink checks the total against the rules for the states you're operating in and flags it if a permit is likely required — so you're not caught out later.

If a permit is flagged

A permit flag isn't a dead end — it's a heads-up. You'll find the details and next steps in When you need a permit, including how soft limits (liftable with a permit) differ from hard limits (which always apply).
