What Is Spin the Wheel?

Spin the wheel is a free online tool that randomly selects one option from a list of choices. Add your own entries to the wheel, press Spin, and watch the wheel rotate before displaying the selected result. You can use it for decisions, games, classroom activities, giveaways, raffles, and other activities that involve choosing from a list.

A spinning wheel provides a visual way to make a random selection. The animation makes the selection easy to follow when the result is displayed to a group, making it useful for classrooms, games, live events, giveaways, and group decisions.

The wheel uses a browser-based random selection process to determine the result of each spin. Each spin starts a new selection from the available wheel entries.

How to Spin the Wheel — Step by Step

Using the lucky wheel takes only a few simple steps:

Add Your Choices

Type your custom entries — names, prizes, options, or decisions — into the Entries panel. Each entry becomes a wheel segment.

Or Load a Template

You can also start with one of the available templates, such as Dinner Ideas, Party Games, Yes or No, or Weekend Activity.

Update the Wheel

Click Update Wheel to apply your entries and refresh the wheel.

Press Spin

Click the SPIN button in the center of the wheel. The wheel rotates and stops on one of the available segments.

See the Result

The selected entry is displayed when the wheel stops. If you want to select another entry without repeating the previous result, you can remove the selected entry before spinning again.
