About POAP Fun

POAP Fun is a raffle experience that gives anyone the ability to create raffles and give out prizes to POAP collectors!

POAP Fun uses a lucky number draw mechanism that ensures fairness in every draw. Each ticket # is checked against the lucky number at a given position until there’s only one match. Every ticket # represents a POAP token ID, and the lucky number is the last number of the gas usage of the latest Ethereum block.

        Note: if you select a predefined start, you will have the option to start the raffle manually before scheduled time

      2. A manual start will allow you to tell raffle participants roughly when you think it will start, and then trigger the raffle start manually from the admin panel

      1. Note #1: raffle participants do not need to connect a wallet to join the raffle regardless of your selection here. However, winners are given the ability to sign a message to confirm their email corresponds to the winning wallet so you as an organizer know your prize is going to the right recipient.
      2. Note #2: if you would like to automatically add all POAP holders as participants yourself, rather than waiting for them to join, leave this box unchecked. You will then be able to select an “add all participants” button in the admin panel prior to the draw.
    7. Conditions: check the “agree to terms and conditions” box to confirm that you agree to the terms and conditions of using the POAP Fun product as stated below.
