A Discord Stage is an audio room. You can share a screen in one, and you should — but you have to design the giveaway for the people who will never look at it.
Put the join link in the Stage’s text chat and read the code out loud, because a Stage audience is in listening mode and many are on a phone. A speaker can also share a screen to show the draw — Kloot runs the whole giveaway in a browser window for exactly that.

What you’ll build
A giveaway your Stage audience can enter whether they are watching the screen share or listening with their phone in a pocket.
A Stage channel is a special voice channel, available only in Community servers, where a few people speak and everyone else listens as the audience. Discord’s own examples are AMAs, fireside chats and townhalls. That framing matters: your audience arrived to listen, and a good number of them are on a phone with the app in their pocket.
This is the step that does the work. Every Stage has a chat beside it, and a join link there is the one entry route that works for a listener who cannot see anything. Post it when you open entries and pin it, because a Stage chat scrolls during an event exactly like any other.
Post the link, not just the six-character code. Someone listening on a phone can tap a link; typing a code means leaving the app they are listening in.
Say it twice, slowly, and say what it is for. An audio room is the one place where reading a code aloud is genuinely the primary channel rather than a courtesy — and some of your audience is driving, walking or cooking, which is a large part of why they are in an audio room at all.
A speaker can turn on their camera or share a screen in a Stage, provided they have the Video permission on that channel. Kloot runs the entire giveaway in a browser window — prize, join code, a large QR and the live entry count — so there is something worth sharing without setting up OBS for a Discord event.
Check the permission before the event rather than during it. Speakers need the Video permission on the Stage channel specifically, and discovering that live is a bad two minutes.
If the giveaway is for this community anyway, Kloot can post to a channel in the same server the moment entries open, and again when there is a winner with a link to the results. That reaches the members who are not in the Stage at all, which on most servers is nearly everybody. It is a Creator feature, and it posts for giveaways rather than polls.
The draw runs while the room is listening, and the winner gets a claim screen on their own device with a countdown. In an audio room that is worth more than usual: you cannot see whether the person you just named is still there, and the claim window answers that for you instead of leaving you calling a name into a room.
Setup is done — this is the five-beat run, start to finish. You fire two keys; the overlay and your audience do the rest.
Press Launch on your deck the moment the stream is hot. A prize card drops onto your overlay with a QR code and a short join code — entry is open.
They scan the QR or type the code at kloot.gg/join — no account, no chat command, any platform. The entry counter climbs live while you keep playing.
When the timer ends — or you decide the room is ready — press Draw. The spin wheel takes over the overlay and spins for real. This is the hype beat.
The wheel lands and the winner’s name locks onto the card. If you pre-loaded prize codes, Kloot emails the winner their code the same second — no post-stream chasing.
Press once to clear the card off screen and you’re back to the game. If the prize was brand-funded, screenshot the result and export the entry list as clean proof for the sponsor.
A giveaway is a spike you control. The moments where it pays off most:
When: You just crossed a milestone and the chat is buzzing.
Why it works: Turns a number into a moment and rewards the exact people who got you there — the spike keeps them around.
When: A brand puts up the prize as part of a deal.
Why it works: You run it, export the entry list as proof of a real activation, and the sponsor sees measurable reach — easy to renew.
When: A big raid just landed on your stream.
Why it works: One-tap entry with no signup converts drive-by viewers into followers before they wander off.
When: A fundraiser, tournament, or one-off event.
Why it works: A prize drives donations and entries; an Event Pass covers full Pro for the day without a subscription.
Entry card, live draw, winner reveal — every preview below is the real overlay renderer your viewers watch, not a mockup.
Entry, opened — one tap for the whole room, on any platform.
Press Launch and this card drops onto your overlay: prize, live entry count, QR + short join code. Viewers are in before the hype dies — no bot, no “type !enter”, no account.
Deck key: Launch — opens entryThe hype beat — a winner picked in front of everyone.
Press Draw and the wheel takes center screen with every entrant on it. The room watches it slow down and land — a draw nobody has to take on faith, and the clip that gets shared after.
Deck key: Draw — spins the wheelThe payoff — winner locked in, prize already on its way.
The wheel lands and the winner’s name locks onto the card. If you pre-loaded prize codes, Kloot emails the winner theirs the same second — you never chase a DM after the stream.

Yes. A speaker can enable their camera or Go Live with a window or screen, but only with the Video permission on that Stage channel. Check it before the event, not during.
From the join link in the Stage’s text chat, which is why that is the first step rather than the fallback. A Stage audience is in listening mode by default and many are on a phone — a link they can tap beats a code they have to leave the app to type.
For a Stage channel, yes — Discord only offers them in Community servers. Everything else here works in an ordinary voice channel with Go Live, which is worth knowing if your server is small and not set up as a Community.
Yes, on Creator and above: a webhook posts when the giveaway opens and again when there is a winner, with a link to the results. It posts for giveaways, not polls.
The same principles apply — free entry, stated terms, a real draw. Kloot generates the rules from your settings on every plan, and the only platform-specific disclaimer built in is Twitch’s, so check whether anything else applies to how you are running it.
