The Parent is the sole registrant and primary point of contact for the Team. No registration by minors is permitted.
Upon registration, the Parent will receive a confirmation email containing a welcome kit, contest timeline, and instructions for accessing app.chipi.ai.
Because participating Children may be under 13, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) applies. By registering, the Parent provides verifiable parental consent for their Child’s participation on the Chipi platform. Only the Child’s first name and age are collected. No additional personal information is collected directly from the Child. Chipi’s Privacy Policy, which includes COPPA-compliant provisions, is available at chipi.ai/privacy.
Teams earn points through verified activity on app.chipi.ai during the Contest period. All point-earning actions are system-logged and objectively verifiable. No subjective judgment is used in awarding points.

Note: Point values are set by the Sponsor prior to the Contest period and communicated to participants via these Official Contest Rules, which serve as the primary mode of communication from the Sponsor to participants. The Sponsor reserves the right to adjust point values at any time during the Contest to maintain competitive balance and contest integrity. Any changes will be communicated to all registered participants within 24 hours of the change taking effect. Point adjustments apply prospectively only and do not retroactively alter points already earned.
Points for feedback surveys are awarded on a binary basis. Teams receive base points for submitting a survey and bonus points for completing all free-text fields. The content, quality, or length of text responses is not evaluated or scored. A response is either present (points awarded) or absent (no bonus).
| Place | Prize | Approximate Retail Value |
|---|---|---|
| 1st Place (Grand Prize) | Amazon Gift Card | $200 |
| 2nd Place | Amazon Gift Card | $100 |
| 3rd Place | Amazon Gift Card | $75 |
Total approximate prize value: $375.
All registered Teams will receive a complimentary Starter Token Pack (15 tokens) upon registration. Teams will continue to receive complimentary Starter Token Packs on a recurring basis throughout the Contest period at no cost. Token packs are credited to the Team’s Chipi account and are subject to Chipi’s standard Terms of Service.
Winners are determined by the highest total points earned during the Contest period, as recorded by Chipi’s platform systems. The Team with the most points earns 1st Place, the second-highest earns 2nd Place, and the third-highest earns 3rd Place.
In the event that two or more Teams have identical point totals, the tie will be broken in favor of the Team that reached the tied point total earliest, as determined by system timestamp. If a tie persists after application of this tiebreaker, the Team with the greater number of total completed actions (lessons + activities + learning labs + surveys) will prevail. If a tie still persists, the Team with the earliest registration timestamp will prevail.
Prior to announcing winners, the Sponsor will conduct an integrity review of the top-ranked Teams. This review is limited to verifying:
This review is a verification process, not a secondary judging layer. The integrity review cannot override the leaderboard ranking except in cases of confirmed rule violations or fraud. The Sponsor’s decisions regarding integrity verification are final and binding.
A Team may be disqualified for any of the following:
If a disqualified Team held a prize position, the prize will be awarded to the next-highest-ranked eligible Team.
Each Team must submit a Journey Log to be eligible for prizes. The Journey Log is a structured document (template provided by Sponsor) summarizing the Team’s experience, learnings, feedback, and highlights.
All registered Teams will receive a complimentary Chipi subscription for the duration of the Contest period (April 22 – June 13, 2026). No purchase, payment, or subscription fee is required to participate in the Contest. This complimentary access provides full functionality needed to complete all point-earning actions.
Upon conclusion of the Contest, Teams may elect to continue their Chipi subscription at the then-current subscription rate or allow their account to revert to any available free tier.
The Sponsor will conduct live virtual events (“Pit Stops”) during the Contest period via Zoom or a comparable platform. Attendance at Pit Stops earns points as specified in Section 5. Attendance is verified by platform attendance logs. Pit Stop dates and times will be communicated to registered Teams in advance. Recordings may be made available but do not substitute for live attendance for points purposes unless otherwise stated by the Sponsor.
The Sponsor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to:
