The challenge is open to all Snapmaker users worldwide—beginners and advanced makers alike.

All submissions must be published within the event period (Jun 11 – Oct 9, 2026).

You can submit photos or videos showcasing your Snapmaker projects, prints, tips, comparisons, modifications, or laser/CNC tips, depending on the specific challenge task. Each task lists requirements to guide your submission. To ensure fair participation, content previously submitted to other Snapmaker campaigns (e.g., Video Contest, Snapmaker Model Design Contest) is not eligible and cannot be reused for this challenge.

Yes! For the same content within the same challenge, you’re free to submit both a video and a photo. However, only one reward will be counted per work, and the system will always take the highest incentive, such as the video reward in this case.

You can post on supported platforms listed on the challenge page, such as Instagram, X, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, the Facebook Group, Snapmaker Discord, or the Snapmaker Forum. Posting on multiple platforms is allowed, but the same content can earn a reward only once.

After publishing your content, click “Submit & Claim Reward” and fill out the form with your post link and required info. Approved submissions will receive a Gift Card via email within 10–15 business days.

Approved submissions will receive a confirmation email along with the Gift Card within 10–15 business days. If your submission doesn’t meet the requirements, our review team will contact you via community@snapmaker.com.

Manual review takes 10–15 business days. Once approved, the Gift Card will be emailed to you. If additional info is needed, our team may contact you. If you haven’t received a response after 15 business days, email info@snapmaker.com from the same email used for submission with a link to your content.

Yes. You may submit multiple entries across different challenges. Each approved submission earns its listed reward. If the same content is posted on multiple platforms, it will only be rewarded once, based on the highest applicable reward tier. Separate submission forms are required for multiple projects.

Submitted content must remain public and accessible during review. Deleting, setting it to private, or significantly altering it may result in disqualification.

Low-effort, AI-generated, plagiarized, misleading, or unverifiable content is not accepted. Content that is deleted, set to private, or reused from other Snapmaker campaigns will be disqualified. If a submission does not meet the requirements, our team will notify you via email at community@snapmaker.com within 10–15 business days.
