FAQ

Quick answers.

Do I have to lose the most weight to win?
No. Points are for hitting your daily calorie and step goals. Weight lost never scores, so your size makes no difference.
Can I still win if I join mid-month?
Yes. If you're new to CalCut and join after the 1st, you start that month with 4 points for each day before you joined, added when you enter and capped so you start just below 5th place. From there, hitting your goals does the climbing.
Is it a lucky draw?
No luck involved. The member with the most points at the close wins. If two or more finish exactly level, they split the prize equally.
Does it cost anything extra?
No entry fee. You need an active CalCut subscription — monthly or annual, including the annual plan's 7-day free trial.
How does the winner get paid?
We email the winner. Reply within 14 days and we pay within 28 days of a verified claim, by bank transfer, PayPal or Wise. Outside Australia it's converted to your currency on the day we pay, and we cover the fees.
When does a month close?
At 12:00 UTC on the 2nd of the following month. Open CalCut before then so your last steps are counted.
How do you keep it fair?
Before any prize is paid we review the top scores — food entries, calorie totals and step patterns. Honest logging is the only way to win.
Who sees my name?
Only the display name you choose and your points, on the Leaderboard and at the reveal. Never your real name, weight or email.

The details

The CalCut Monthly — how it works. Promoter: CalCut Pty Ltd (ACN 697 215 660).

Who can enter: CalCut subscribers (monthly or annual, including the annual plan's free trial) aged 18 or over who live in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada (except Quebec) or the United States (except Arizona, Colorado, Maryland, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Dakota, Tennessee and Vermont), with their App Store account on that country's storefront.

How to enter: opt in inside the CalCut app — choose a display name, confirm your age and country, accept the terms. No entry fee; nothing to buy beyond your normal subscription at its usual price.

How the winner is decided: each day you earn 2 points for meeting your step goal, 2 for logging calories within your target (60–100% of it, at least two entries), 8 for both (a Perfect Day), and +1 for each Perfect Day from the third in a row onward. Every point doubles on a Saturday or Sunday. If you're new to CalCut and join after the 1st, you start that month with 4 points for each day before you joined, capped below 5th place. The eligible entrant with the most points when the month closes wins. There is no draw and no element of chance; an exact tie splits the prize equally.

The prize: one prize of A$1,000 per calendar month, paid by bank transfer, PayPal or Wise within 28 days of a verified claim. Paid in your local currency at the exchange rate on the day of payment if you are outside Australia.

Closing: each competition month is a calendar month; scoring closes at 12:00 UTC on the 2nd day of the following month. Open the app at least once every 6 days, and before the Close, so all your steps are counted. The result is announced in the app on the 3rd and confirmed by a review before the prize is paid. The winner is revealed on @calcut.app within 7 days of the close.
