When should I use a holiday name picker instead of a full Secret Santa tool?

Use the holiday name picker when you just need a quick holiday name draw for games or small events and do not need full dashboards or wishlists.

Can the holiday name picker handle big groups?

Yes, it uses the same matching engine as the main Secret Santa generator and can handle large office, family or school groups.

Does the holiday name picker support blocklists?

Blocklists and advanced options live in the full Holiday Draw Names app, which you can access from the How It Works and Get Started pages.
