01

Setup — 2 minutes

Build your prize wheel.

Add Swivel to Slack in one click, then create a spinner from the Swivel home tab. Choose your slice count, assign prizes and probabilities, set permissions, and activate. Done.

  • Choose 6, 8, or 12 slices — each slice gets an emoji, a prize, and a win probability
  • All slice probabilities must total 100% — set losing "No Prize" slices for the right ratio
  • Set who can trigger it: Anyone, Managers & Admins only, or Admins only
  • Create multiple spinners for different use cases (sales, peer kudos, all-hands)
  • Free plan: 2 active spinners · Premium: unlimited

Nominate — five ways

Spin when a win happens.

When your team hits a milestone — a deal closes, a feature ships, an anniversary arrives — trigger a spin. Swivel gives you five ways to nominate someone, so you can meet your team wherever they are.

  • Slash command: type /swivel in any channel and fill in the modal
  • Right-click any message → Use Swivel (pre-fills nominee and channel)
  • Home tab: click ⚡ Trigger a Spin directly from the Swivel app
  • Zapier: deal closes in Salesforce, anniversary fires from HRIS → spin fires automatically
  • In-thread: post a spin directly in an existing Slack thread

Spin, win & claim

The whole team watches it happen.

The nominated teammate sees the announcement in the channel and clicks 🎡 Spin Now! to set the wheel in motion — live, in front of the whole team. When the wheel lands, the winner claims their prize and the channel erupts.

  • Nominee clicks 🎡 Spin Now! — spin only fires when they're ready
  • Animated wheel resolves live; a 🎉 WINNER, WINNER! banner fires on a prize
  • Winner clicks 🎁 Claim Your Prize → prize delivered (auto or manual)
  • Winner receives a congratulatory DM; winner can send a Say Thanks note back
  • Admin alerted for any manually-fulfilled prizes pending fulfillment
  • Every spin logged in activity history with full timestamps

Use Cases

A spin for every occasion.

Recognition belongs in more moments than you think.

🏆

Sales Wins

Close a deal, spin a wheel. Every closed-won is a moment worth celebrating — publicly, loudly, together. Connect to Salesforce via Zapier for automatic spins.

🐛

Shipped Code

Merged that gnarly PR? Spin for it. Engineering culture starts with recognizing the work no one else sees. Connect to GitHub or Linear for automatic spins.

📞

Best Caller

Cold calling is brutal. Pick the best two reps a week and show them love. The morale boost compounds over time and the whole team sees it.

🎂

Work Anniversaries

One year, five years, ten years — make milestones feel like milestones. Loyalty deserves a celebration. Auto-trigger from your HRIS via Zapier.

💡

Peer Nominations

Let teammates nominate each other. Peer recognition hits hardest — it shows your whole team is paying attention to each other's contributions.

🚀

Team Goal Unlocks

Hit a team target? Everyone spins. Collective wins deserve collective celebration. Set it up once — it fires automatically when the milestone is reached.
