You can randomly select a winner under your social media comments sweepstakes directly from your feed and have incoming items redirect you to the Facebook Business Manager.


Comments Sweepstake in Engagement

If you run sweepstakes via your Facebook comments, you can easily pick a random winner. To do this, select a comment under the sweepstake in Engagement and use the three-dot menu under the post in the context column to the right. There you will find Comments Sweepstake if there are comments under the post.

You can then select how many winners there should be picked, maximum 2, and which tag these winners should be given. It is advisable to create a unique tag before the selection. After the winners have been selected, you can filter according to the defined tag to easily find your winners in your feed.

💡 If you want to draw more than 2 winners or use other networks than Facebook, please use the sweepstake function in Engage.

Comments Sweepstake in Engage

The sweepstake function is available in Engage for Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram. If you would like to draw one or more winners at random from your comments, click on Sweepstake in the three-dot menu next to the post under which the comments are to be drawn.

You can then select how many winners there should be picked, maximum 10, and which tag these winners should be given. You can choose from existing tags or create a new tag directly.

After you have confirmed your entries with Apply, the winning comments and usernames will be displayed. The Show Winners button takes you to a closed filter view in which only the winning comments are displayed. This way you can easily notify the users about their win.
