# Giveaways your whole chat can see

Run a giveaway and every entrant walks onto your stream. A themed overlay turns "type the command to enter" into a moment your community watches together — and a random viewer wins.

## Pick your world

Switch themes with a click — no new link to paste into OBS. Your overlay updates the next time it loads.

### People on grass

Pixel-art viewers stroll along the bottom of your scene.

### Ships on water

A little fleet sails across a procedural sea, flags waving.

### Pets on grass

Cats and dogs trot and pad across the grass.

## From command to winner in three steps

### Create and start

Add a reward and an entry command in your dashboard, then start it — from the dashboard or with a chat command your mods can run.

### Viewers wander in

As viewers type the command, they appear on your overlay and wander your scene in real time. A banner can show the command so newcomers know how to join.

### Draw a winner

Pick a random winner from the dashboard. They are announced in chat, and the crowd walks off the overlay until your next round.

## Built to drop into any scene

### Fits any source

A fixed 1920×1080 design that scales cleanly to whatever size your Browser Source is.

### Two-minute test

Preview the overlay in OBS with fake entrants before you go live — no real giveaway needed.

### Make it yours

Toggle the scenery for a transparent overlay, and show or hide the entry-command banner.

### One durable link

Paste it into OBS once. Switching themes never changes the URL — and you can regenerate it if it ever leaks.

### A graceful goodbye

When the giveaway ends, entrants scatter left and right and walk off-screen instead of blinking out.

### Fair and quiet

Winners sit out a cooldown so the same viewers don’t win every time — handled automatically, never announced.

### Followers only

Limit a giveaway to your followers — anyone else who types the command is taken off the list again.

### Auto-draw

Set a timer when you create it, and the giveaway closes and draws a winner on its own.

### A claim page for winners

Winners log in with Twitch on a claim page to see what they won.

## One more overlay: Translator

Separate from giveaways, the Translator overlay under Overlays in your dashboard shows a little ship, character or pet crossing your stream with the viewer’s flag and name whenever someone chats in another language. It has its own Browser Source link.

## What can Universal Translator not do?

- It translates chat, not your voice: there are no subtitles or captions of your stream audio.
- It works on Twitch only for now.
- Replying with !translate needs a paid plan. Incoming chat is translated on every plan, including the free one.

If you need subtitles of your voice, StreamTranslate does that and runs alongside the bot: https://streamtranslate.live/?utm_source=universal-translator.io&utm_medium=referral
