Official Rules & Terms of Service

[REQUIRES LEGAL REVIEW]

No purchase or payment is necessary to enter or win. Purchasing does not improve your chances of winning. Alternative method of entry details will be provided here. Void where prohibited by law.

[REQUIRES LEGAL REVIEW]

Open to individuals who are at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in their jurisdiction of residence) at the time of entry. Employees, officers, and directors of Booth Buzz and their immediate family members are not eligible.

Participants must provide a valid first name, last name, email address, and phone number to complete their profile and become eligible for the prize drawing. Jurisdictional restrictions may apply.

[REQUIRES LEGAL REVIEW]

Attendees enter by visiting participating exhibitor booths at the conference. A check-in is recorded when an exhibitor scans the attendee's unique QR code. Each check-in earns points toward the prize drawing. Maximum one check-in per exhibitor booth per attendee.

Check-ins are provisional until the attendee completes their profile with required information. Only verified attendees are eligible for the drawing.

[REQUIRES LEGAL REVIEW]

The prize pool is funded by exhibitor buy-ins of $250 per exhibitor. Booth Buzz retains a 25% platform fee. The remaining pool is split into two parts: 60% funds the curve prizes and 40% funds the guaranteed Milestone prizes.

Curve prizes are awarded to the top finishers ranked by the points they earn, paid out along a fixed geometric decay curve (each lower place receives a smaller, predetermined share). The number of curve winners scales with the number of verified attendees (approximately the top 5%).

Milestone prizes are guaranteed payouts triggered by event-wide check-in counts: the first check-in, and then every 100th check-in, each award an equal share of the Milestone pool. Which attendee records a given Milestone check-in is determined by the timing of that check-in.

Winners receive their prizes via Stripe Connect. Funds are held indefinitely until the winner completes Stripe Connect onboarding. All Stripe processing fees are absorbed by Booth Buzz — winners receive the full stated amount.

[REQUIRES LEGAL REVIEW]

Winner selection is deterministic — there is no element of chance. Each booth check-in earns points; the more booths an attendee checks in at, the more points they earn. Curve winners are the attendees with the most points, in descending order, up to the projected winner count for the event.

Attendees tied at the cut-off all win and share that place equally. Milestone prizes are separate and guaranteed: recording a trigger check-in (the first, then every 100th event-wide) awards a Milestone prize regardless of an attendee's points standing.
