"Critiquing the Art Contest Landscape: Transparency in Fees
In the global art contest industry, it's a common practice to charge fees for curating and participating in contests. These fees are often collected upfront during the entry process. However, it's not uncommon for participants to find themselves paying without receiving the expected value. In India, such transactions also incur an additional 18% GST, along with approximately 2% PayPal commission on fund transfers. This means about 20% of your paid fee can be deducted for various charges.

We believe in transparency and fairness. We are committed to not adding any hidden fees under the guise of 'Contest' charges.
We don't dip into your pockets for unexplained deductions, and none of your payment goes to the government unless it's legally required. To ensure this transparency, we have separated our Contest Section, which is why requires a subscription into our membership plan; after signing up. These membership plans are designed primarily for publishing images & curation.
Kindly note that members who post images without completing their personal details in their profile will not be evaluated...
It's important to highlight that our Contest will officially open on December !st 2023. To enroll in the contest, you must log in and subscribe to the SUITABLE plan. An additional charge of $30 USD will be levied not for nominee / only for finalists. These finalists will receive well-deserved merits without any shadow of doubt. Unpaid members will not be eligible to participate in the contest.
