Paper raffle slip alternative
RaffleBoost helps teams move from paper slips, raffle boxes, and business card bowls to QR-code entries, cleaner participant data, and a winner draw that looks professional.
Paper feels simple at the booth, but the work moves to the end of the day when the team is tired and the follow-up window is already closing.
A name or email that cannot be read is not a usable lead. The team may spend hours guessing, correcting, or discarding entries.
Slips move between tables, boxes, bags, and counters. It is easy to lose context about where an entry came from.
Someone still has to type the list into a spreadsheet or CRM before sales or marketing can act on it.
Pulling a folded slip from a bowl can work, but it does not create the same transparent, on-screen moment as a live digital draw.
Choose the participant details and any custom questions you need for follow-up.
Print or display the QR code where people would normally pick up a paper slip.
Participants type their own details on their phone, keeping entries in one place.
Run the winner draw and export the list when the giveaway is ready for follow-up.
| Question | Paper slips or card bowl | Digital raffle with RaffleBoost |
|---|---|---|
| Who enters the data? | Participants write it, then staff retype it later. | Participants enter details once on their phone. |
| Can you ask qualifying questions? | Only if the slip is long enough and people complete it. | Use custom fields for product interest, role, timeline, or follow-up preference. |
| What happens after the event? | Sort, type, deduplicate, and clean the list. | Export the participant list and start follow-up sooner. |
| How does the draw feel? | Manual and hard for the audience to see. | A dedicated draw page can be shown on-screen. |
Replace the business card bowl with a QR code that captures details while visitors are still at the booth.
Invite shoppers to scan and enter seasonal giveaways without filling out a slip at checkout.
Collect entries at fairs, open houses, club nights, community fundraisers, or school events.
Give attendees a fast entry flow at sponsor tables and export a list for post-event outreach.
Use a giveaway to capture product interest from visitors who are not ready to buy on the spot.
Standardize giveaways across clients without rebuilding paper forms and spreadsheets for every event.
It is a digital entry form that lets people submit giveaway details online, usually by scanning a QR code, instead of writing on a paper slip.
A business card bowl only captures whatever is printed on the card. A digital entry can collect the specific follow-up details your team needs.
Yes. The event is physical, but the entry is digital. You can print the QR code on signs, table tents, flyers, or booth graphics.
Paper can be enough for a tiny informal draw where no follow-up is needed. Use digital when clean data, export, custom fields, or a polished winner draw matter.
Give visitors a simple scan-to-enter flow and give your team a cleaner list after the event.
