# Are Fans and Entries the same thing?

## Here's a quick break-down on the difference between "fans" and "entries" in your campaign results.

Fans and entries are not the same thing as far as the FanCRM is concerned. When looking at the results of your campaign you will come across data for both "Fans" and "Entries" and those numbers will often be different. 

That's because "**fans**" refers to the unique individuals that exist in our system while "**entries**" is how many times fans entered the campaign. If you do not set up any entry limits on your campaigns, fans could be entering the campaign multiple times which would make the entries much higher than the number of fans reported. 

> **Note:** You might notice more entries than fans even though you only allowed fans to enter once. In this case, the fan has entered multiple times with different email addresses; however, the system will still log this as one person since they are entering from the same IP address.
