![]() ![]() Spotlight Challenges is in the testing phase now and is slated to launch initially on Snapchat Android and iOS apps in the U.S. The top 50 eligible, relevant and highest-viewed submissions from the selection pool for each contest will be judged based on creativity and originality, innovative use of Snap creative tools, unique point-of-view, and entertainment value. Typically, according to the company, each challenge will reward an average of 3-5 eligible Snapchatters as winners. Official rules for Snapchat Challenges are available at this link. The minimum prize a Snapchat user can win in a Spotlight Challenge is $250. ![]() Spotlight Challenges will give Snapchat users the chance to win cash prizes for creating posts in a wide range of categories, like “Best Trick Shot” and ”Impressions Challenge.” The total prize amount for individual Spotlight Challenges will typically range from $1,000 to $25,000, although Snap said it may occasionally pay out a larger sum for a particular challenge. When the TikTok-like section debuted in November 2020, Snapchat said it paid out more than $1 million per day to the top-performing videos in June, the company reduced the amount it pays overall because the program was generating too much “copycat content,” Snap CEO Evan Spiegel said last week at an investment conference. The Spotlight Challenges program, set to start rolling out next month, is in addition to the “millions per month” the company says it pays to creators globally for top-performing Spotlight Snaps. The new programs include Spotlight Challenges: an extension of the Spotlight user-generated content section that promises cash payouts of $25,000 - or more - to creators with the most-engaging videos that use specified AR lenses, sounds or topics.
