Wheel of Fortune
Introduction and orientation
Create and publish your own interactive competition. Players activate the wheel by QR code or touch, while the system manages allocated prizes and unique winning codes automatically.
When and how to use the competition
Create any number of separate wheels for promotions in shops, shopping centres, hotels, trade fairs, exhibitions and one-off events. Each competition for a particular brand, client or venue can have its own logo, background, colours, segments, prizes, available prize quantities and activation method.
How the player takes part
Players can activate the wheel by touch or use their phone without touching the public display. Scanning the QR code opens a system page in the mobile browser and activates the wheel on the main screen, ready for the player. Tapping Play on the phone sends the command in real time and starts the wheel spinning. The phone acts as the controller while the competition stays on the main display.
Steps and settings
Preparing the competition
Before creating the competition, prepare its rules, prize list and the available quantity of each prize.
Create a Wheel of Fortune
- Open My applications, click + and select Wheel of Fortune.
- Information — set the identity and basic information for this application instance.
- Theme — adapt the competition to the brand. Configure the logo, logo size and area, colours, background image, wheel size and position.
- Items — create the wheel segments. A segment can use text or an image, custom colours and prize settings. For prizes, also set the quantity available in the competition.
- Activation — choose the interaction method. For the mobile flow, configure the QR code including its size, area and horizontal/vertical position.
- Summary — review the final appearance and configuration before saving the application.
Check before launch
Check the settings in the Information, Theme, Items, Activation and Summary steps. Verify the graphics, prize stock, touch or QR controls, publication and the complete flow on the target screen and phone. Monitor awarded prizes and unique codes in the administration interface.
Scheduled publication
Make the application available within a configured start and end date. See application availability scheduling for details.

Prize management
Each instance has its own item and quantity settings. The playback device tracks local usage and removes items when their configured quantity is exhausted. When running one competition across several devices, agree how prizes are allocated and test concurrent play; do not assume immediate shared reservation of the last prize across all screens.
Check the received prize history and codes in the administration portal. Define prize collection and redemption recording before launching the competition.
What happens after the wheel is spun
The wheel selects a result from the configured available items. A winning result may appear in the player’s mobile browser with a code identifying the prize. When issuing a prize, compare the code with the records received in the administration portal and follow the competition rules. The code alone does not prove that a voucher cannot be forged or has been redeemed only once.
The playback device records awarded items and sends the records to the service. Once received, prizes and codes appear in the administration portal. Local stock counting and the central history are separate steps; a connection outage can delay delivery of the history.
