How to draw Secret Santa names

Add at least three participants and generate. Each person is assigned exactly one recipient and receives from exactly one giver.

Keeping it secret

Reveal pairs one at a time to each person, or have the organiser share each match privately. Set a budget and date before you draw.

Frequently asked questions

Is the result really random?

Yes. WheelofChoice uses your browser's cryptographically secure random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues), so every outcome has the same chance unless you deliberately change the weights.

Is it free and do I need an account?

It is completely free and works without sign up. Your lists are saved only on your own device.

Can someone draw themselves?

No. The generator always makes sure nobody is assigned to themselves.
