A paid plan is optional. If you do charge customers, test-mode payments don’t count.
Submit before you start ads. We only pay back spend from teams that have submitted.
Ads must point to your registered ProtoRun site.
We only pay back ad spend we can see in your ad account.
Using ad money for anything else means disqualification.
One submission per team. Your latest one counts.
