Online voting for awards and competitions
Run a polished, credible award vote in minutes, with nominee photos, live results and full control over who can vote.
Why award shows choose Izivote
An award vote carries the reputation of the event behind it. Paper ballots are slow to count and form builders look improvised. Izivote gives every nominee a proper profile, every voter a page that works on any phone, and you a result you can stand behind.
Built for the questions award organizers ask
Every awards team weighs the same four things before choosing a platform.
Will it match the prestige of the event?
Each nominee gets a photo and a profile, each category its own section, and the whole award sits on one page designed for phones. It reads like an awards program, not a form.
Will the result stand up to scrutiny?
Choose exactly who can vote: anyone with the link, signed-in voters, a list of approved voters, or paying supporters. Then set how often each person can vote, from once only to once a week.
Can we take nominations first?
Open a public nomination form with the fields you need, review what comes in, and approve your finalists into the vote.
How do we announce the winners?
Keep the standings hidden until the ceremony, then use present mode to reveal the winners one category at a time.
