Most sweepstakes are still run on spreadsheets or paper, which breaks once the tournament starts. Playdrawr automates the entire process in one link: random team draw, live leaderboard, and automatic updates from match results. No logins for participants, no manual tracking, and built for the 48-team World Cup. It removes admin completely rather than just digitising it.
I built this after getting stuck organising sweepstakes the same way every time - spreadsheets, manual draws, chasing people for payments, then updating standings throughout the tournament.
With the 2026 World Cup moving to 48 teams, it felt like that problem was only going to get worse.
So I built Playdrawr to automate the whole thing:
– Random team draw
– Live leaderboard
– Automatic updates
– One simple share link (no logins)
It’s free for up to 48 people.
Would genuinely value feedback from anyone who runs sweepstakes, what’s the most painful part today, and what feels missing here?
