TikTok / Instagram Video or Photo Entry 

Entrants may submit multiple qualifying photos or videos; each valid post counts as a separate entry. Max total entries per person applies — see below.

Post an original football-themed video or photo during promotion period:

Requirements:

• Tag @CommaFootball

• Include the hashtags #CommaGoldenTicketGiveaway 

• If the post is a video, say “Comma Football” in the video. Simply saying “Comma Football” does not, on its own, make the video football-themed. The entry must still be a genuinely football-themed video to qualify.

• Minimum video length: 3 seconds.

• Entrant must appear in the video or photo.

• Entrant’s own original content

• Must not imply FIFA affiliation or use official FIFA logos or property

• Content must be safe, lawful, and brand-safe. This includes complying with TikTok and Instagram community guidelines, avoiding dangerous behaviour, and avoiding any material that could reasonably harm Comma Football’s reputation.

• Social media entry must be posted from entrant’s public TikTok or Instagram account that has been active before the Promotion start date, with reasonable activity history. Private accounts, newly-created accounts with no prior activity, or accounts used solely for the Promotion may be disqualified at Sponsor’s discretion. 

• The Sponsor may disqualify any entrant whose account has a history of posting illegal, harmful, unsafe, or brand-damaging content.

• Content must remain public until 25/02/2025.

Video Entry Scoring:

 

To help drive engagement, the Sponsor may release optional content themes. These themes are for inspiration only and are not required. Any post that is genuinely football-themed will qualify, provided all other entry requirements are met.

Bots, paid views, false or misleading information, reposts, unsafe activity, hate speech, brand-damaging content, burner accounts, private accounts, or accounts created primarily for contest entry = disqualification.

Sponsor may require proof of account ownership and verification to confirm authenticity.

Entrant warrants that the submitted content is original and does not infringe any third-party rights. Entrant will obtain any permissions necessary for people or property featured.

*Virality bonus entries are treated equally to all other entries for the purposes of Step 1 random finalist selection. “Views” means native on-platform organic views at the time the entrant submits their video entry form. Entrants must confirm during submission if their video has reached ≥ 100,000 organic views or ≥ 10,000 organic likes. Sponsor may, at its sole discretion, verify organic views and require reasonable proof—such as in-app analytics screenshots or a statutory declaration (or equivalent attestation)—confirming that no paid, automated, or artificial engagement was used. Sponsor’s determination regarding view authenticity and eligibility for virality bonus entries is final. Use of, or reasonable suspicion of use of, paid promotion, bots, artificial engagement, or other manipulation may result in disqualification without notice at the Sponsor’s sole discretion.

Post Yourself Wearing a Comma Football Product

Post a video or photo of yourself wearing an official Comma Football product on TikTok or Instagram during the Promotion Period:

• Tag @CommaFootball

• Include the hashtag #CommaGoldenTicketGiveaway

• Account must be public

• Content must be original and meet all requirements listed under “TikTok / Instagram Video Entry”

1 valid post = 40 entries

Follow Actions

• Follow @commafootball on TikTok = +1 (max 1)

• Follow @commafootballclo on Instagram = +1 (max 1)

• Like the Comma Football facebook page = +1 (max 1)

Entry Cap

MAX TOTAL ENTRIES PER PERSON: 18,000

This limit applies to the total number of entries accumulated across all entry methods combined.

A combination of free entry methods can reach the maximum cap without any purchase.

Entries submitted beyond this limit, or through multiple accounts, identities, or automated systems, may be void and result in disqualification.

Duplicate entries are not permitted. Each entry must be unique and submitted only once by the same entrant. Identical or repeated submissions, including reposts of the same video or multiple identical sign-ups, may be voided and may result in disqualification.

To help drive engagement, the Sponsor may increase the number of entries allocated to specific entries or entry methods at any time during the Promotion Period; however, the maximum total entry cap per person will continue to apply.

---

2. Finalist & Winner Selection

Step 1 — Random Finalist Selection

20 finalists selected at random from all valid entries.  

Finalists will be notified by email. Sponsor will provide one or more available time slot(s) for the finalist video call, at Sponsor’s sole discretion. Finalists must confirm attendance within five (5) business days and attend the scheduled call.

Failure to respond, confirm, or attend the scheduled call — regardless of reason, including if Sponsor is unable to contact the finalist — may result in disqualification at Sponsor’s sole discretion. Sponsor is not required to offer alternative time slots, reschedule, or accommodate individual availability.

---

Step 2 — Skill-Based Final Round

Final winner chosen based on interview and content suitability.

Evaluation criteria:

• On-camera presence & communication

• Football passion and knowledge

• Creativity and authenticity

• Positive community vibe

• Ability to film and participate in promotional content

• Brand-safe behaviour 

• What the finalist plans to spend the prize on 

• Finalist’s provided reason/s for why the Sponsor should award them the prize

• Ability to communicate clearly in spoken English (for content filming)*
  
  

As part of the finalist process, each finalist must:

• Participate in a live video call

• Personally verify their identity and country of residence by presenting valid government-issued ID

If the finalist is under 18:

• The finalist must present their own acceptable form of identification. 

• A parent or legal guardian must also be present during the call and present their own valid government-issued ID. 

The Sponsor reserves the right to determine what constitutes an acceptable form of identification and may request additional documentation if required to confirm eligibility before awarding the prize.

Finalists who decline these requirements may be withdrawn as a finalist, and an alternate finalist may be selected.

The winner is not chosen at random. Final selection is based solely on the above skill-based criteria.

Finalist selection will occur within 21 days after the Promotion Period ends.

Winner will be selected within 7 days after all finalist interviews have concluded.

Sponsor will make reasonable accommodations for finalists with disabilities to enable participation, provided such accommodations do not fundamentally alter the Promotion or impose disproportionate burden.

*This requirement is solely for content filming purposes and is not related to nationality, ethnicity, or cultural background.

Odds & Judging

Odds of being selected as a Finalist in Step 1 depend on the number of eligible entries received. Final selection of the Winner in Step 2 is based solely on the skill criteria stated herein; judges’ decisions are final.

The winner will be selected by a jury composed of two representatives of the Sponsor, and one independent representative. The jury will evaluate the finalists according to the skill-based criteria set out in these rules. The jury’s decisions are final and binding. 

One (1) winner will be selected from among the twenty (20) finalists.

In the event of a tie, the judging panel will select the winner from the tied contestants by jointly agreeing on who performed the best on the criteria "On-camera presence & communication."

3. Prize

Grand Prize

One (1) winner will receive a cash transfer of AUD $11,000.

• Two (2) nights’ accommodation at a minimum 4-star hotel, and
  

• Economy-class return flights for two (2) people.
  

Flights and accommodation will depend on the winner’s location. If the winner resides within reasonable proximity to the event city, flights and accommodation will not be provided. The Sponsor will arrange and select flights and accommodation at its discretion, based on reasonable availability, winner’s proximity to the event city, and cost. The Sponsor may prepay the room rate and flights. Any incidentals (including, but not limited to, minibar, meals, room service, damages, or additional nights) must be settled directly by the winner at checkout.

Approximate Retail Value (ARV): AUD $11,000.

The winner, and potential guest, is solely responsible for all costs not expressly included in the prize, including but not limited to:

• Passports / visas

• Travel insurance

• Meals & incidentals

• Personal expenses

• Local transport and transfers

• Medical costs

• Vaccinations / entry requirements

• Travel equipment and spending money

• Relevant taxes

The Sponsor’s prize obligation is fully satisfied upon transfer of the cash prize to the winner’s nominated account. The Sponsor is not responsible for delays, failed transfers, rejections, or losses arising from incorrect, incomplete, or unsupported banking information supplied by the winner. The winner is solely responsible for providing accurate account details. The Sponsor is not responsible for any subsequent loss, cancellation, or inability to redeem travel or event arrangements. If flights or accommodation are booked directly by the Sponsor, the Sponsor’s liability is limited to the cost of those bookings. No reimbursement or substitute will be offered for changes, cancellations, or unused portions beyond the Sponsor’s control.

Guest Requirements - Applicable only if the winner spends part or all of the prize on two (2) official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Pitchside Lounge or VIP Hospitality Packages purchased directly from FIFA:

• If the winner is under 18, their parent or legal guardian must accompany them as the guest.

• If the winner is 18 or older, they may select any guest, subject to the Sponsor’s approval.

• The Sponsor reserves the right, acting reasonably, to decline or replace a proposed guest where the Sponsor becomes aware that participation may pose a safety, legal, reputational, or brand-risk concern. If a guest is declined, the winner may nominate an alternative guest meeting these requirements.

• If the selected guest is under 18, the winner must certify that they have full responsibility for the minor during travel and content activities, must comply with airline, hotel, and legal requirements for minor travel, and the minor’s parent or legal guardian must sign all required consent and travel documentation. The Sponsor will not assume responsibility for supervising a minor guest.

Hosted Promotional Filming & Golden Ticket Unboxing (part of prize experience)

As part of the prize experience, the winner agrees to independently capture and provide limited promotional content to Comma Football.

This includes:

• One (1) Golden Ticket unboxing video submitted to Comma Football within seven (7) days of delivery; and
  

• Two (2) short-form content moments showing how they choose to enjoy or use their prize — consisting of one (1) short video and five (5) photos (for example, if the winner chooses to spend their prize on travel, they will capture a short video and five photos of themselves and any relevant parties enjoying their trip).

If the winner uses the prize money on multiple distinct activities or purchases, the Sponsor may reasonably request an additional video and photo for each activity or purchase. The winner agrees to capture and supply all required content to Comma Football within seven (7) days of enjoying the prize.

Participation in this content creation is a condition of accepting the prize.

All footage, photos, or other materials created as part of these required content moments, and any additional content the winner chooses to submit to the Sponsor, will be deemed “Promotional Content.” All Promotional Content is subject to the Content Rights clause in these Terms and Conditions. The winner must ensure that all individuals appearing in the content have consented to its use and that all such individuals agree to the same Content Rights clause.

Taxes & Reporting

To the extent permitted by law, the Winner is solely responsible for any taxes, duties, or reporting obligations associated with acceptance or use of the prize. Sponsor may require completion of tax forms reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law. If the winner is a legal resident of the United States, they may be required to complete a Form W-9, and the Sponsor may be required to file IRS Form 1099-MISC (or other applicable information return) reporting the fair market value of the prize to the Internal Revenue Service. The winner is responsible for any federal, state or local taxes associated with acceptance or use of the prize.

Note: If the winner chooses to purchase official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Pitchside Lounge or VIP Hospitality Packages and accepts the additional flights and accommodation from the Sponsor, the Approximate Retail Value (ARV) of the total prize will increase to reflect the fair market value of those components. Any additional tax obligations arising from the increased ARV are the sole responsibility of the winner.

The Sponsor will determine, at its sole discretion, whether the proof of purchase is sufficient or whether additional documentation is required.

No compensation or alternative prize will be provided in the event of forfeiture. Sponsor may, at its sole discretion, grant a short extension in exceptional circumstances; however, no extension is guaranteed.
