Giveaway (formerly Lottery) for WooCommerce

Dear Support Team,

I’d like to request a crucial feature for managing our raffles that would allow for greater flexibility and potential revenue generation.

Currently, I understand that each lottery or raffle number is sold exclusively to a single user. My proposal is to implement the option to allow the sale of the same number multiple times to different users, or even to the same user.

Feature Description
I want the ability to configure, for each individual raffle, whether numbers can be purchased multiple times. This means that a single number, for example “05”, could be sold more than once.

Practical Examples
For greater clarity, let’s consider the following scenarios:

Multiple Sales to Different Users:

In a raffle with numbers from 00 to 99, if the number “15” is of particular interest, User A could buy “15”, and subsequently, User B could also buy “15”. Both would hold a ticket with the number “15”.

If “15” is the winning number, both (User A and User B) would win the corresponding prize.

Multiple Sales to the Same User:

A user interested in increasing their chances of winning with a specific number, like “22”, could purchase it two or more times. For instance, User C could buy “22” once, and then decide to buy it a second time within the same raffle.

This would grant User C two “entries” or “tickets” associated with the number “22”.

Per-Raffle Configuration
It’s essential that this multiple-sale capability be an option configurable at the raffle level. This way, we could decide:

Raffle A: Numbers are for exclusive sale (only one purchaser per number, as it currently functions).

Raffle B: Numbers are for multiple sale (each number can be sold 2, 3, 5, or however many times defined, whether to the same user or to multiple users).

Expected Benefits
This functionality would allow us to:

Maximize revenue in popular raffles.

Offer different types of raffles that adapt to various strategies.

Increase user engagement by allowing them to invest more in their favorite numbers.

Thank you in advance for your attention to this request. I look forward to your feedback on the feasibility of implementing this important improvement.
