Host competitions and challenges on MultiVendor Market

Run hackathons, contests and challenges from your own branded shop. Each event has a date, time zone and a venue or online link that only registered participants receive. Capacity limits keep the field manageable, the automatic waitlist fills dropped places and reminder emails help participants hit the kickoff. Participants pay you directly through your own Stripe or PayPal account; MultiVendor never holds your money and charges a subscription for the software. You run judging and prizes yourself.

Tips for selling competitions & challenges

  • Publish official rules covering eligibility, judging, timeline and entry ownership before registration opens.
  • State every key time with its time zone: kickoff, deadline and results.
  • Set capacity to the number of entries your judges can fairly review.
  • Check local rules on contests and prize promotions where you and your entrants are based.
  • Promote with trackable share links to see which communities send the most participants.
