Contest rules

These are the official rules of every contest in cocopost UGC. Each contest's page in the app adds its own details: the brand, the prize, who can enter, where to post and when it ends. Those details are part of these rules. By entering a contest, you accept these rules and the Creator terms.

Sponsor

The sponsor of every contest is BetterJobs LLC, 131 Continental Dr, Suite 305, Newark, DE 19713, United States. The brand named on the contest writes the brief and supplies the prize money; we run the contest, judge it as these rules say and pay the prize.

Apple, Google, TikTok and Meta

Apple is not a sponsor of any contest and is not involved in it in any way. Neither are Google, TikTok or Meta (Instagram). By entering, you release them from any claim about the contest.

Free to enter

No purchase or payment is needed to enter or to win, and paying for anything doesn't improve your chances.

Who can enter

You can enter if you're 18 or older, have a creator account in good standing, and have an account on the platform the contest names (TikTok or Instagram). A contest is open to everyone or to one follower range: under 1k followers, 1k to 10k followers, 10k to 100k followers or over 100k followers. Your range is the highest follower count among your accounts on the contest's platforms, as your profile shows it. Staff of BetterJobs LLC and of the brand running a contest can't enter it. Contests are void where the law forbids or restricts them.

How to enter

1. Join the contest on its page in the app.
2. Record the video in the app and send it.
3. Post it on your own account on the contest's platform, marked as an ad (#ad in the caption, and the platform's paid partnership label).
4. Add the link to your post in the app before the contest ends. We check that the post is on your account, is the video you sent and says it's an ad.

One entry per creator per contest, with one post.

How the winner is picked

When the contest ends, we take every entered post's latest numbers, read every few hours. Each post scores its views plus 10 times its likes and 10 times its comments (how many there are, not what they say), as our tracking counts them at the end. Posts that were taken down don't count. On a tie, the post that went live first comes first. A view count Instagram doesn't give us counts as zero.

The brand then reviews the 3 highest scores in that order, for up to 72 hours. It can give the prize to the post on top, or refuse it for not following the brief, and the next one moves up. The last post in the running can't be refused: it wins. If the brand doesn't answer in time, the highest post it hasn't refused wins. A contest with a single post skips the review. Each contest has one winner.

The winner and the prize

We tell the winner in the app, and tell you if the brand refused your post and why. The prize is the cash amount on the contest page, in US dollars. It becomes the winner's once the winning post passes its check 48 hours after going live; if the post is taken down before that check, nobody gets the prize and it goes back to the brand. A contest that ends with no posts has no winner.

Prizes are paid into the winner's Whop wallet (see Getting paid in the Creator terms), and from there the winner withdraws to their bank or PayPal. A prize can't be transferred or swapped for something else. Taxes on a prize are the winner's; we may ask for the tax details the law requires.

Disqualification

We can disqualify an entry, before or after the winner is picked, for bought views, likes or followers, bots, a post that isn't marked as an ad or isn't on your own account, a post that isn't the video you made here, or anything else that breaks these rules or the Creator terms. If the winning entry is disqualified, nobody gets that prize and it goes back to the brand.

Your data

Entering shares your post and its numbers with the brand running the contest. Everything else is in the Privacy policy.

Limits on our liability

To the extent the law allows, we aren't responsible for numbers a platform doesn't show us, or shows late or wrong, or for technical problems outside our control, and our liability for a contest is limited to its prize.

Law and disputes

These rules are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, and disputes go to the state or federal courts in Delaware. If you live where the law gives you protections a contract can't take away, you keep them.

Changes

We can change these rules for future contests. A contest that has started keeps the rules it started with, unless the law requires a change.
