If I get 1st or 2nd place, can I get a Participation Payment as well?

No, you are not able to. Under our Contest Rules designers are only eligible for one payment per project and the place payment.

A Participation Payment is designed to be a minimum 'safety net' to make sure you get some reward for your effort. Participation Payments are generally sent to designers by customers inviting them to submit to their project. This is referred to as a Paid Invitation or Premium Invitation dependent on the amount.

If you receive a Place Payment (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc) as listed in the brief then you cannot receive a Participation Payment for that brief in addition. Place payments take precedent as the value is higher than the Participation Payment amount.

*Note: This rule may be waived if the customer so requests it. They can request that all or some of the participation payments go to the winner/winners, or a designer may be selected for more than one Place Payment.
