To redraw an individual winner (if you drew someone from your staff, or a winner withdrew their participation), click on "Redraw".

Another winner is drawn automatically, replacing the previous one.

Export Winners

When you are at the main Draws page you can click on "Export" to export the winners of a draw to a CSV file.
