Prize Tools for one prize method included free with each order.

We included brief descriptions below of our prize methods.

The prize method that you choose will determine how the chips are redeemed at the end of the night.  It is very important to have an evening-end chip redemption to increase player incentive and give them the desire to stay in it until the end.  With prizes up for grabs, they will have something to play for and bet to win!  This also adds to the excitement and ensures that all chips are returned.

For the player's convenience, prize opportunities are dispensed at the table that the guest is playing at towards the end of the event (or at the cashier anytime).

Guests who chose early on to minimize their risk can still redeem their funny money for prize opportunities from the cashier anytime throughout the evening.

The most convenient feature of our prize methods is that guests can redeem with an Amerifun staff member or dealer (near the end of the event).  This allows for players not to have to wait in a long line when redeeming at evening's end (players may also redeem anytime with a teller).

In addition to the thrill of winning, a Prize Method ensures that
All Chips are Returned at the end of the Event.

PLEASE NOTE:  If you prefer not to select a prize methods, we offer the 'Giveaway' method by default.

Here’s how it works:
Guests redeem their winnings and/ or leftover funny money at the end of the night. They will receive a pre-designated number of tickets per a pre-determined dollar amount. Tickets are later drawn for the prizes.

A great example of why Amerifun is the company to select - the extras!
We provide these things for your raffle:

• Mutual Tickets (single tickets also on-hand).

• Single or Multiple Ticket Receptacles (shown below).

• Signs displaying Amounts.

• Free Basic Facilitation for groups under 100 people at your request.

Note: At the start of the event, players do not need to know the amount of tickets that they will receive.. only that they will receive tickets.

Experience has taught us that you cannot set the amounts as you do not know how much players will win.   If you set a pre-determined amount of tickets received per dollar amount, then you will find that players will end up with too many or too few tickets at evening's end.

We do it like this:  We watch how players are doing and set the amount during the last hour.. usually 1 tickets per $1,000 / 1 ticket per $2-$3,000 / 1 ticket per $5,000.

If you start guests with more than $5,000 the above amounts may be higher.

Even if we do not do the facilitation, we still provide all the tools!

Select the Raffle Drum if you want to draw for prizes one at a time (such as lowest value prize to highest).  With this option you can also offer guests the option to pass on a prize and try their luck at another draw).

The Baskets are employed when you wants to offer guests the option of registering for a specific prize.  Tickets are drawn out of a basket corresponding to a certain prize.  We will provide an equal number of baskets to your prizes (for instance, if you have 50 prizes, we will provide 50 baskets).

Here is some information that we may need from you and some questions to ask yourself:
1.) Do you prefer players to JUST WIN ONE PRIZE EACH... OR...
WINNER TAKES ALL (whoever's ticket is drawn wins regardless)?

2.) MUST PLAYERS BE PRESENT TO WIN?

3.) Do you prefer on SINGLE TICKET RECEPTACLE (hopper)... OR...
MULTIPLE RECEPTACLES (baskets)?

4.) What is your NUMBER OF PRIZES?

5.) Is there a MAXIMUM NUMBER OF TICKETS that you want the top winners to end up at the end of the evening?  If you like, we can figure this for you.  Sometimes it is a good idea to have a ceiling placed on the max number of tickets if you have some really big winners.  For example:  Let's say that you have 5-10 prizes and have decided on 1 ticket per $1,000.  Most of your guests have won $25,000 yet a few guests won over $100,000.  This would give the majority of your guests a comfortable 25 tickets but 100 tickets or more for some players.  A ceiling ensures equal dispersement fairness as well as speedy facilitation.

6.) Is there a LOWEST NUMBER OF TICKETS that you want all players to at least win? (example: 5)  If you like, we can figure this for you too.  Let's say you offer 1 ticket per $5,000 and most guests win ample tickets but a few had less that $5,000 and receive only one ticket.

We can help create the perfect balance in your raffle.

 Here’s how it works:
Guests redeem all of their winnings at the end of the night. They will receive more funny money back (or vouchers with their winning amount by request).  A live auction is later performed for prizes.

Free Basic Facilitation for groups under 100 people included at your request (sound required).  We offer a sophisticated, easy-paced organized auction format like you might see at an antique auction house.  Professional Auctioneers with high-speed rant also available.

Even if we do not do the facilitation, we still provide all the tools.

We provide:

• Funny Money or Vouchers to bid with.

• Bidding Paddles for your guests.

• The Gavel.

• Fancy Tablecloth (please let us know in advance and we may be able to coordinate with your theme/ decor).

Here is some information that we may need from you and some questions to ask yourself:
1.) How many GUESTS will be attending your event?

2). How many PRIZES will you have?

3.) Do you want players to only be able to win ONE PRIZE?:

4.) Do you want to start bidding from Smallest to Largest prize or Random?

Please make arrangements to provide us with a prize list.

Here’s how it works:
Guests will turn in their winnings and all leftover fun money that they hold at the end of the night with their dealer or with a cashier.

We will:

• Compare all the totals for you and present you will a completed organized breakdown of your winners in the order you chose (top three, top five, top ten, top twenty or entire group).

This prize method provides for the most simplest and quickest facilitation and is a very popular option.

Here is some information that we may need from you and some questions to ask yourself:
1.) Which organized LOG of Winners would you like us to tally for you?  THE TOP THREE WINNERS,  THE TOP FIVE,
THE TOP TEN,  THE TOP TWENTY... OR... THE ENTIRE GROUP?

Zing it up with some Zazz!  Check out our Master of Ceremonies or Host for facilitation alternatives.

Here’s how it works: Guests will redeem their winnings at event's end and will receive more funny money back (or vouchers with their winning amount by requests) to purchase prizes in the gift shop area. A gift shop should be opened near the last hour or after the gaming.

• Pre-price and even merchandise your prizes for you.

Here is some information that we may need from you and some questions to ask yourself:

3.) What is the HIGHEST CASH VALUE?

Prize Ideas:

Many clients ask for suggestions for prizes - we only tell them that their budget is their limit.

Some common ideas are:
