Spin the Wheel

This page is for marketers setting up a Spin the Wheel campaign. Players press Spin, the wheel turns, and it lands on one segment. Each segment has a label, such as “Free coffee” or “Try again”, and you decide which segments count as a win and how likely each one is.

What you can set

Set these on the campaign’s Config tab.

Setting	What it does	Allowed values
Segments	The wedges on the wheel.	2 to 24
Label	The text on a segment.	1 to 80 characters
Weight	How likely the wheel is to land on this segment, relative to the others. The editor shows each weight as a percentage.	Above 0, up to 1,000,000
Colour	The segment’s fill colour.	A six-digit hex colour, such as #3b8ad9. Leave empty for a built-in colour.
Counts as a win	Marks the segment as a prize.	On or off
Spin duration	How long the wheel turns, in milliseconds.	500 to 15,000. Default 4,000.

The What players will face panel shows the number of segments and the overall chance of a win, so you can check your weights before you save.

Note

If a winning segment is tied to a reward and that reward runs out of codes, the wheel stops landing on that segment.

Artwork and sound

The wheel has no image or sound slots. It is drawn from your segment labels and colours, together with the campaign’s branding.

Text labels

Change these on the Copy & Translations tab.

Key	Default text	Where it shows
loading	Loading…	While the game loads.
spin	Spin	The button that starts a spin.
spinning	Spinning…	On the button and the status line while the wheel turns.
win	You won	Before the winning segment’s label on the result line.

Choosing winners

The wheel gives each player an instant result. If you also run a prize draw among everyone who played, use a random method. A new Spin the Wheel campaign starts on Random, weighted by entry, which gives every play the same chance, just as Random, equal odds does. Highest score does not apply, because spins have no score.
