Free Raffle Ticket Template & Online Entry Form

September 7, 2026

Whether you are running a school fundraiser, a charity draw, or a giveaway, a raffle ticket template paired with an online entry form makes selling and tracking entries far easier than a roll of paper tickets. People enter from their phone, you collect their details automatically, and picking a winner is a matter of exporting the list. This guide shows you what to put on a raffle entry form and how to run the whole draw online.

Paper tickets vs. an online entry form

Physical raffle tickets still have their place for in-person events, but an online entry form adds things paper cannot: you capture every entrant's email, you can sell entries to people who are not in the room, and you get a clean list to draw from. Many organizers use both — printed tickets at the door and an online form for everyone else.

The raffle entry form template

  • Full name — short text — required
  • Email — email — required — to notify the winner
  • Phone — phone — optional — a backup way to reach the winner
  • Number of tickets — number — required — how many entries they are buying
  • Ticket number(s) — short text — optional — if you assign numbers manually
  • Payment confirmation — short text or file upload — optional — a receipt or reference
  • Consent to be contacted — checkbox — required — agreement to the rules

Keep it short. The only must-haves are a name, a contact method, and how many entries they want.

How to run the raffle online

  1. Set the rules first. State the ticket price, the prize, the draw date, and who is eligible. Put a short version right on the form.
  2. Collect entries. Share the form link on social media, by email, and with a QR code on printed flyers.
  3. Track ticket numbers. Either assign numbers automatically as entries arrive or add a number field. Storing entries in a spreadsheet makes numbering simple.
  4. Handle payment. Collect payment through your usual method — a payment link, an invoice, or cash at the event — and note it on the entry.
  5. Draw the winner. Export the list, use a random number generator to pick a row, and contact the winner by email.

Best practices for raffle forms

  • Show the prize and price up front. People decide fast, so lead with what they can win and what a ticket costs.
  • Make buying multiple entries easy. A number field for quantity beats making people submit the form several times.
  • State the draw date clearly. It builds trust and sets expectations for when you will announce.
  • Capture consent. A required checkbox confirming the entrant agrees to the rules keeps everything above board.
  • Keep it mobile-first. Most entries come from a shared link on a phone, so keep the form short and single-column.

Build your raffle form in minutes

In FormMaker, add a name field, an email field, and a number field for how many tickets someone wants, then a required checkbox for the rules. Publish the form and share the link or a QR code. Every entry lands in your dashboard, and you can send the whole list to a Google Sheet to assign numbers and draw your winner.

FAQ

How do I assign ticket numbers?

Either add a number field and assign numbers as entries come in, or export entries to a spreadsheet and number the rows there. The spreadsheet approach is easiest for a random draw.

Can I collect payment on the raffle form?

Collect the entry details on the form and handle payment your way — a payment link, an invoice, or cash. Note the payment reference on each entry so you can confirm paid tickets.

How do I pick a winner fairly?

Export your entries to a spreadsheet, then use a random number generator to select a row. Keep the exported list as your record of all valid entries.

Is running an online raffle legal?

Rules vary by location, especially for paid raffles and fundraisers. Check your local regulations and add a short eligibility and rules statement to your form.
