Online voting for schools and universities
Online student voting replaces paper ballots with a secure voting page. Run student council elections, class representative votes and campus awards in minutes.
No IT setup, no budget needed
A student election should be easy to run and easy to take part in. Paper ballots take days to count, and dedicated election software needs IT support. Izivote works straight away in any browser, with no installation, no training and no credit card.
Why schools run elections on Izivote
Election officers and student unions ask the same four questions.
Can only our students vote?
Add your list of student IDs or school emails, and only those students can vote. On a paid plan, students can sign in through your school login instead.
Is the ballot secret?
Yes. Nobody, organizers included, can see who a student voted for. With a student voter list on a paid plan, you can see who has voted, so you know who to remind.
Can each student vote only once?
Yes. Set voting to once only, and each student gets one vote per position for the whole election.
How fast are the results?
Votes are counted as they are cast, so results are ready the moment voting closes. Keep them hidden until you announce.
