Built-in tools or app?
When are Microsoft’s built-in tools enough?
A small draw within the team doesn’t need software. Smarter Tombola is built for raffles that should run in an organized, traceable way.
The built-in tools are enough for this
- A spontaneous small draw: paper tickets or a quick random pick are enough.
- A simple survey or vote: Microsoft Forms.
This is what Smarter Tombola is built for
- Digital tickets without paper – even with many participants
- Automatic, traceable drawing
- Email notification of the winners
- Runs in your SharePoint – participant data stays in-house
If the left column covers your case, you don’t need an app – you’ve already paid for the built-in tools. Smarter Tombola exists for everything on the right.

Purchasing & licensing
Three steps to your license
Microsoft separates the app from its license in the marketplace – that’s why you’ll find Smarter Tombola listed twice. Getting licensed is still quick:
Install and try the app
Install Smarter Tombola from the Microsoft marketplace into your SharePoint environment for free and try every feature without obligation.
View the app in the marketplaceBuy the license from Microsoft
Purchase the license as a subscription directly on Microsoft AppSource. You’ll see the price there in your local currency – including the correct taxes for your country.
See the price in your currencyActivate your site collection
Assign the license to the site collections where Smarter Tombola should run. Your data and settings from the trial are preserved.
Billed directly by Microsoft
Buying through AppSource is procurement without the procurement process: the contract runs through the Microsoft account your organization already has.
No new vendor
You buy from Microsoft – no vendor onboarding or supplier checks in your purchasing department.
Invoice from Microsoft
With the correct VAT for your country, in your local currency.
One bill
The license appears on your existing Microsoft 365 invoice – alongside your other subscriptions.
Full control
Manage, scale or cancel the subscription at any time in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
Frequently asked questions about buying
Why is Smarter Tombola listed twice in the marketplace?
Microsoft technically separates the app from its license: you install the app for free in your environment and purchase the license as a separate subscription. Microsoft mandates this split for all SharePoint apps with marketplace licensing. For the purchase, the listing with the “License” suffix is the right one.
What happens after the trial?
Your data lives in your own SharePoint lists and is preserved. Once the license is activated, you continue right where you left off.
Do we need a credit card?
Not necessarily. Payment runs through your organization’s billing profile at Microsoft – by credit card or invoice, depending on your configuration.
Who in our organization can buy?
The purchase is made in your organization’s Microsoft account – usually by someone with permission for marketplace purchases, for example a billing administrator.
How do we cancel the subscription?
Directly in the Microsoft 365 admin center – you manage the license like any other Microsoft subscription.
