Claims & Blocks
What is a block?
A block is one cell on the 160×100 board (16,000 in total). Each block is a small piece of internet territory you own as long as your monthly subscription is active — your image, your color, your title, your link.How do I claim a block?
Open the board, click an available cell (or shift-drag to select multiple), and follow the checkout flow. The block becomes yours immediately on payment.What if I want to claim multiple blocks together?
Shift-click and drag on the board to select a rectangle, then click CLAIM. All selected blocks are checked out in one Stripe session and become a single subscription.Can I customize my block?
Yes. Click any block you own on the board to open the inline editor in the right panel — upload an image, set a display color, add a title, and link out anywhere.
Sweepstakes
How do I get entries into the sweepstakes?
Each $1 paid (excluding tax) on a subscription = 1 entry for the active sweepstakes period. There are also free entry methods available. See the Official Rules for the full free-entry instructions.When does a sweepstakes end?
A sweepstakes ends at its published deadline — the countdown on the Prizes page is the single end condition. There is no early close.How often do new sweepstakes run?
Weekly. Pixul runs one sweepstakes per week — the moment one closes, the next is already open. The active sweepstakes' timer is always pinned to the Prizes page so you can see exactly when it ends.Where do I see my entry count?
Your current-period entries show on the dashboard sweepstakes ribbon at the top, and your lifetime total is in the Your Stats card.
Communities & Creators
What is a community?
A community is a creator + everyone who claimed through their referral link. Member blocks count toward the creator's territory in the Teams Lens overlay.How do I become a creator?
Apply via the Creator Program. Approval is manual; once approved, your account flips the creator badge and you get a referral link to share.Can creators enter the sweepstakes?
No. Creator accounts are not eligible for sweepstakes entries. Creators build territory instead — their community's blocks are their visible footprint on the board.
Payments & Billing
Where do I manage my subscription?
Open Billing & Subs from the dashboard’s Settings tab. You can update your card, view invoices, and cancel renewals via Stripe’s secure portal.What happens if I cancel?
Your block stays active through the end of the current paid period. After that, it returns to the available pool. Your sweepstakes entries from paid periods still count.
