How RaffleLink works
The five-minute orientation — accounts, organisations, affiliates, and where to do what.
Before you build a raffle, it helps to understand how the pieces of RaffleLink fit together. It's a quick read and it makes everything else much easier.
The short version: you have an account, your account belongs to one or more organisations, and organisations are what host raffles. Once that clicks, the rest of the product follows.
The mental model
Accounts, organisations, and affiliates — how they relate.
