# Changing Your Raffle URL

### Overview

The nominated raffle name serves as the suffix of your raffle's URL (e.g., rafflelink.com.au/`myrafflesuffix`). This can be modified before your raffle becomes active.

### Important Considerations

* Changes must be made **before** the raffle is active to prevent broken links
* Your new URL suffix must be unique across all rafflelink.com.au raffles
* Requirements for the new suffix:
  * Maximum 20 characters
  * All lowercase letters
  * No spaces
  * Must be unique

   * New URL: rafflelink.com.au/newname/admin

   * Your login credentials will automatically reset
   * You'll receive a pop-up message with new login details
   * A confirmation email will be sent with your new credentials

### Best Practices

* Copy or write down the new login details from the pop-up immediately, as the confirmation email may take several minutes to arrive
* Update all promotional materials with the new URL (QR codes, newsletters, etc.)
* Keep your new login credentials in a safe place and avoid confusion with old credentials
