FAST BOT: run a giveaway in minutes

Running a giveaway in your channel seems easy until you actually do it. You have to gather entrants, check the rules and pick a winner without anyone shouting that it was rigged. FAST BOT takes that routine off your hands inside Telegram. 🎁

The bot is free and built for channel admins. Close to 400,000 people have used it over time.

What the bot handles

Each task has its own command, so there is little menu digging.

• /fast creates a quick contest, and /settings adjusts how it works.
• /lot starts a classic contest or lottery with a random winner.
• /quiz builds a poll for your audience.
• /post helps you put together a post for publishing.
• /list shows all your contests and lets you manage them.
• /channel switches the channel the bot is linked to.

There is also /account for your account details and /top with a roundup of current events, where you can see other people's giveaways.

Your first contest, step by step 🚀

1. Make the bot an admin in your channel. Without that it cannot post or check subscriptions.
2. Link the channel with /channel.
3. Create a giveaway with /lot or /fast and set the terms: prize, deadline, number of winners.
4. Publish the post and wait for entries.
5. Wrap it up. The bot picks the winner, and you announce the result.

Fairness people can see

The usual complaint about channel giveaways is that the winner was picked in advance. A randomizer bot answers part of that, because an algorithm makes the choice, not an admin by hand.

For full trust, publish the results openly: who won, how many entered, when entries closed. If a winner leaves the channel before the draw, spell out in the rules what happens in that case.

Ads and how to turn them off

The bot is free and runs on advertising. If ads get in the way, /subscribe switches them off. And /ad does the opposite: it lets you order ads for your own project inside the bot. 📣

Tips for organizers ✅

• Keep the rules short. Three clear points beat ten in fine print.
• Do not require ten channel subscriptions. Those giveaways attract bots and freebie hunters, not a real audience.
• Name a real prize and delivery date. Late prizes hurt a channel's reputation fast.
• Do not ask winners for too much. Delivering a prize never needs card details, SMS codes or passwords.

That last point matters for entrants too. Scammers often send a you-won message and then ask you to pay for shipping. A real organizer does not do that.
