A fair coin, whenever you need one
No coin in your pocket? Flip a virtual one. Every toss is a genuine 50/50 between heads and tails, with a fun spin and a running tally so you can keep score. It's the simplest unbiased way to settle a choice.
Make a decision with it
Assign one option to heads and the other to tails, then flip. For more than two options, spin the decision wheel, roll the dice, or pick a name with the name picker.
How to use the coin flip
- Assign your choices — decide which option is heads and which is tails.
- Flip and watch the coin land on a random side.
- Check the tally of heads and tails for the session if you're flipping several times.
Why a coin flip is genuinely fair
Each flip is an independent 50/50 event, which is what makes a coin toss the classic impartial tiebreaker — neither choice is favoured, and no one can argue the result was rigged. One thing that surprises people: fairness doesn't mean results alternate neatly. Random sequences produce streaks, so five heads in a row is perfectly normal and doesn't make tails "due" next — each flip starts fresh. If a straight 50/50 is too blunt for your decision, spread the odds across more options with the decision wheel, or roll for a number with the dice roller.
