Giveaway Draw — Telegram bot

What it does

What Giveaway Draw does

GiveawayDrawProBot runs a prize giveaway in a Telegram channel or group. You answer four questions in a private chat: the prize, the number of winners, the deadline and the chat where the giveaway is posted. The bot then posts the giveaway with a Join button.

People tap Join and press Start in the bot, and the bot checks that they are members of the chat. At the deadline the bot draws the winners, posts the result with the seed it used, and writes to each winner. The giveaway post shows a hash of that seed (sha256), so after the draw anyone can check that the seed matches the hash that was public from the start.

You can also switch on bonus tickets. Each participant gets a personal invite link, and each new member who joins through it gives the inviter 1 extra ticket, up to 5 extra. The bot does not hand over the prize: the organiser contacts the winners.

Privacy

What the bot stores

From the bot's own privacy notes.

For each giveaway the bot stores the creator's Telegram id, the chat id, title and username, the prize text, the number of winners, the deadline, the secret seed and its hash, the status and the result.
For each participant it stores the Telegram id, the display name and the time of joining. With bonus tickets it also stores the personal invite code of each participant and who invited whom.
It stores the wizard answers while you create a giveaway, the Pro status of a chat, totals as counters and the link tag a user first arrived from, such as site.

FAQ

Questions about Giveaway Draw

How can I check that the draw was fair?

When the giveaway starts, the post shows a hash of a secret seed. After the draw the result post shows the seed. Take sha256 of the seed: it must equal the hash from the start. The winners are then a fixed result of the seed and the list of participants in join order.

Does the bot need admin rights?

The bot must be an admin of the channel or group where the giveaway is posted, and you must be an admin there too. The wizard checks both before it posts.

What does Pro cost?

Pro is per chat: 150 Stars once, for good, with no subscription. It allows up to 10 winners, up to 100,000 participants, up to 5 required chats, one re-draw and CSV export. You pay in a private chat with the bot.

Who sends the prize?

You do. The bot draws the winners and sends each winner a message that the organiser will be in touch. It sends no prize.
