Revup vs Rafflecopter

Looking for a
Rafflecopter replacement?

Revup is the modern home for everyone who ran giveaways on Rafflecopter. Same simplicity, meaningfully better features — starting at $99/month.

What happened

After 15 years, Rafflecopter announced its shutdown and the platform went offline on October 1, 2025. Existing widgets stopped working. Campaigns disappeared. The underlying company (HelloWorld, owned by Merkle/Dentsu) had not meaningfully invested in the product for years.

Revup is what Rafflecopter wished it could have become — a modern, actively-developed giveaway platform with every feature a creator, blogger, or brand needs in 2026.

Everything Rafflecopter did — and a lot more

Revup keeps the parts of Rafflecopter you loved and fills every gap that made teams outgrow it.

The same embed-anywhere widget

Drop Revup into any blog post, Shopify page, or landing page in one line of code — the workflow Rafflecopter built its reputation on, modernized.

Actual compliance tools

Auto-generated official rules, AMOE entry, age gates, geofencing, and fraud detection. Rafflecopter left all of this to you.

Email & SMS in one place

Build onboarding flows, winner announcements, and promotion blasts without Mailchimp or Klaviyo. Rafflecopter required separate tools for everything downstream.

Customer data that persists

Every entrant becomes a real customer profile, tracked across every promotion you ever run. Rafflecopter's data stopped at the widget.

Beyond the widget

Run quizzes, surveys, instant-win games, referral programs, and purchase sweepstakes — all on the same platform. Rafflecopter only did giveaways.

A product that's still being built

Revup ships new features every month. You're not buying into another platform the parent company will let die in five years.

Frequently asked questions

What Rafflecopter customers want to know now.

Yes. Rafflecopter announced it was shutting down and ceased operations on October 1, 2025 after 15 years. Existing widgets and campaigns no longer function. If you relied on Rafflecopter, you'll need to move to a replacement platform.

Revup is the modern replacement — same simple giveaway format bloggers loved on Rafflecopter, plus advanced sweepstakes features, compliance automation, forms, quizzes, email, and SMS. Starts at $99/month with every feature included and a free 7-day trial.

If you exported your entrant data before October 1, 2025, you can import the CSV directly into Revup. If you didn't, Revup's team can still help you rebuild your next campaign and grow your list faster than you did on Rafflecopter.

Yes. Revup has a modern interface, 24 preset themes, and auto-generated official rules — what used to take hours in Rafflecopter takes minutes in Revup. Most users launch their first giveaway in under 30 minutes.

Rafflecopter's last published pricing ranged from $13/month Basic to $84/month Premium. Revup starts at $99/month with a dramatically broader feature set — forms, quizzes, surveys, email, SMS, a Revup Intelligence platform, and full legal compliance all included.
