Nothing. Any event created before September 30, 2026 operates free with every feature included, even if the event itself runs later in the year. There is no credit card required to start.
You are charged on how each entrant got in. Import or add them yourself and it is $2.99 an individual, $19.99 a team, billed after the event. If they register and pay through LiveJudge instead, it is 2.9% of the checkout plus $1.50 for an individual or $14.99 for a team.
It applies only when LiveJudge collects the entry fee at checkout for you. In that case the registration is charged 2.9% of the amount taken plus a flat fee, rather than the import rate. If you bring your own list, no percentage is involved.
No. Judges, co-hosts, admins, and fans are all unlimited and always free. The only thing that is counted is contestants.
Not by default. Pricing is pay-as-you-go and you can run one event a year or twenty. Contract pricing is available for extended agreements.
Every event gets its first 100 votes free, which covers a small ballot outright. Beyond that, paid votes are $0.10 each. The feature itself is never behind a tier: sponsored ballots, geo-fencing, vote limits and live results are all included, and a sponsored ballot usually more than covers the votes.
You are billed on contestants who entered. Cancel before anyone enters and there is nothing to bill.
