Question 1

How do you make a custom wheel of fortune online?

Accepted Answer

It takes about a minute. Type your labels — prizes, choices, categories — into the entries panel using the + button, or paste a full list via Bulk Edit. The wheel rebuilds itself as you go. Once it looks right, click Share to copy a shareable link, or Embed to get an iframe you can drop on any website. No account, no download — it all runs in your browser.

Question 2

Is there a free prize wheel generator online?

Accepted Answer

Yes — this one. TheNameWheel is completely free: no paid tier, no trial, and no features locked behind a signup. You can build a wheel with any prize list, share it with a link, and embed it on a website for free. It is funded by Google AdSense ads, which only show after you accept cookies.

Question 3

Can I edit the labels on the spinner wheel?

Accepted Answer

Yes, any time. Click any entry in the list to rename it, hit × to remove it, or open Bulk Edit to replace the whole list at once. The wheel redraws instantly — there is nothing to save or apply. You can also change label fonts, sizes, and whether they are bold in the Options panel (the gear icon).

Question 4

Can I embed the wheel of fortune on my website?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Click Embed to get an iframe snippet — paste it into any HTML page, WordPress post, Wix block, or LMS. The embedded wheel is fully interactive: visitors spin it on your site without being redirected. Your prize list is baked into the embed URL so it always opens ready to spin.

Question 5

Can I make certain prizes appear more or less often?

Accepted Answer

Yes, two ways. Add a common outcome (like "Try Again") multiple times so it takes up more of the wheel, or open the Weights column and give a rare prize a lower number. With a jackpot at weight 1 and "Try Again" at weight 5, the jackpot comes up about once in every six spins — and the slice sizes show that split visibly.

Question 6

Does it look like the TV show Wheel of Fortune?

Accepted Answer

It is a digital spin wheel you can fill with any labels — not a letter-guessing game. Think of it as the fortune-wheel mechanic (spin to reveal a random outcome) rather than the full TV format. If you want to run a Wheel of Fortune-style segment at an event, load your own prize categories and spin for each contestant.

Question 7

How many segments can my wheel have?

Accepted Answer

As many as you like, though for a wheel you will display to a room we recommend staying under 30 segments — beyond that the text gets small. Labels on very narrow slices are hidden automatically, but the winner is always announced in full in the result popup regardless of slice size.

Question 8

Can I save my wheel for later?

Accepted Answer

Two ways. Click Share to copy a URL that encodes your entire wheel and bookmark it — anyone with the link opens the same wheel. Or click Saved to store the wheel as a named slot in this browser and reload it in one click next time. Saved wheels are stored locally and never uploaded.
