Plinko

Plinko drops a chip through a pin board on the thank-you page — it bounces down and lands in a slot at the bottom. Land on a prize slot and the ticket wins. It’s one of the Giveaway Lottery instant-win mini-games.

Requires: WooCommerce and the free Giveaway Lottery plugin (Pro for auto-generated numbers and full prize delivery). See Instant Win Games — Shared Setup for the complete setup process; this page covers what’s unique to Plinko.

Pro tip: More peg rows make the drop path look more random and exciting; keep the slot count odd so a center “grand prize” slot sits directly under the drop point.
