Paste your list, keep certain people from drawing each other, and draw on the spot. There is nothing to sign up for, and no email is ever asked for.
Free for up to 10 people. Bigger group? One-time $9 upgrade. Still no accounts, no emails.
One name per line. 0 names so far.
Those two people will never draw each other. Comments in parentheses are ignored.
Each person presses and holds their own name for a second to see who they're gifting, away from prying eyes. Or copy the private link under each name and send it by text.
Names live only on this device. No server, no email.
“A little Christmas mystery, sealed until it’s your turn to look.”
No. That's the whole point. Most Secret Santa generators force everyone through an email signup so the site can market to you later. ElfDraw hands each person a private reveal link you can send by text, WhatsApp, Slack: whatever you already use.
Yes. Add them in the exclusions box as Alice - Bob. You can add as many pairs as you need; the shuffle guarantees none of them ever match.
Absolutely. The tool handles 100+ names. For big groups, the one-device reveal gets slow, so use the private-link mode and text each person their assignment.
Yes. No tiers, no watermarks, no "premium shuffle." The tool is a static page; it costs us pennies to run.
No. There is no server. The names never leave your browser: the draw runs locally, and once the page has loaded, no further requests are made.
The draw tool is the same. For White Elephant you usually don't need assignments at all, just turn order. Many groups use ElfDraw to assign turn order fairly.
ElfDraw is a free Secret Santa and gift exchange generator built as a single static page. It was built because every other draw-names site wanted email addresses, accounts, or both. Ours wants neither.
Popular with: office gift exchanges, family Christmas draws, classroom holiday parties, team retreats.
Your draw still needs no email, and that promise doesn't change. But if you'd like a heads-up when our next free holiday tool launches, drop your address here.
Zero spam. One email when something new ships, nothing else.
