The Entrecard team has released an announcement about changes in it's economy.
Of the eight changes enumerated, #4 and #5 are the ones to greatly affect blog contests that give out Entrecard credits as a prize.
- Credit transfer limits: Members are allowed to make a maximum of 14 credit transfers a week, up to a maximum of 1,000 credits, whichever comes first. This means you can still run contests where you give credits away for free, and under 1k per week. Note: This does not affect linked blogs, you can transfer unlimited credits between linked blogs.
- Transfer tax: From now on, all transfers, including transfers made with our new payments API, will be taxed at a rate of 12.5%.
If a contest sponsor would like to give away more than 1000 credits, he/she would have to give it on installment.
And, because of the tax, unless the sponsor will ADD 12.5% when transferring credits, the winner will be receiving 12.5% less of the promised prize.
For more information on these changes, visit the Entrecard blog.
