Verified Draws documentation
Pick the path that fits you. Developers get the technical integration contract — plugin, endpoints, verify links. Operators get a plain-language, step-by-step walkthrough of running a provably-fair competition end to end.
Technical integration. Install and connect the plugin with a site token, push the final roster, generate provably-fair ticket numbers per order, pull results back through POST /api/plugin/results, and render the stored verify links in your own theme. Every example is a copiable code block — PHP, curl, and the [vd_results] shortcode.
- Connecting the plugin (site token)
- The push & ticket-generation flows
- Results pull-back endpoint contract
- The _vd_results meta key + JSON shape
- Rendering links in a custom template
No code required. A numbered, plain-language walkthrough of the whole process: install the plugin, connect it with your site key, select your ended competitions and push entrants, run the provably-fair draw, pull the verification results back with one click, and watch the winner and verify links appear on your competition page.

Two distinct, independently-verifiable artefacts. Every order can be assigned ticket numbers that nobody can quietly re-allocate after the fact. And when a competition closes, the winner draw is committed to a public randomness beacon and produces a shareable code anyone can re-run. Buyers verify their tickets at /verify/order/<slug> and a winning draw at /verify/<code>.
Plugin
Connects your site server-to-server with a locally generated site key, registers competitions, and pushes the final roster for the draw.
Ticket numbers
Each order gets a deterministic, seed-bound block of ticket numbers, plus a per-order link a buyer can check.
Winner draw
When the competition closes, the draw resolves against a committed drand round and publishes a verification code.
