When sending invitations via WhatsApp or by copying the giveaway link, participants will only be able to see the name of the person to give away once. When they do, a green checkmark will appear indicating that this person has already verified the result and knows who the gift is for. After that, they will not be able to check it again. This ensures that participants cannot spy on other participants results and ruin the giveaway.

Of course you can! We have added two new options, the ability to reuse the list and requirements from another Secret Santa giveaway and the ability to delete a list. This speeds up the upload process and clears your dashboard of lists you no longer need.
