Run a giveaway without a monthly plan
Perkadoo hosts one giveaway for a one-off $19, with an entry page, up to 10,000 entrants, email export and bonus entries, so you pay for the giveaway you run, not the months between them.
One giveaway, or three in a year
The cheapest plan that hosts a giveaway on each, with monthly billing and the yearly price where one is shown.
| One giveaway | Three in a year | |

How the one-off giveaway works
Build it free
Sign up free, set your prize, dates and entry page. The free plan keeps one giveaway draft for as long as you need.
Add your rules
Write official rules with the free rules generator and link them from the entry page.
Go live for $19
Pay once for that giveaway. Entrants join with their email and earn bonus entries for inviting a friend, sharing, following or visiting.
Draw and keep the list
Draw your winners with public drand randomness, share the results page and export every entrant's email.
Pay for the launch, not the gap
Most creators run a giveaway around a launch, a follower milestone or the holidays. Between those, a monthly plan bills you for nothing.
The list stays yours. Every entrant's email is there to export, so your next launch starts with people who already know you.
A plan beats one-off if
- You run more than one giveaway at a time. Starter at $24/month keeps 3 live at once.
- You run a giveaway every month. Twelve one-off giveaways cost $228, about what a Starter year costs.
- You need more than 10,000 entrants in one giveaway. That's the cap on every Perkadoo giveaway today.
