Box Battle Championship — Season 1

Official Rules

Version 1.4 · Last updated July 8, 2026

The championship is a single live event lasting 1 hour: one night, one champion. It begins on Saturday, September 5, 2026 at 10:00 PM Paris time and ends on Saturday, September 5, 2026 at 11:00 PM Paris time.

The Box Battle Championship organizers go live about 30 minutes before the official start so everyone can join and get ready. Depending on latecomers, the start may be held for a few extra minutes.

Local start times

  • Paris10:00 PM
  • Douala9:00 PM
  • Dubai12:00 AM
  • New York4:00 PM
  • Winnipeg3:00 PM

Only battles held within this window count toward the championship. Registration is open; contestants are confirmed from July 1 to August 29, 2026 (11:59 PM Paris time). After that date, no registration or withdrawal is possible — except a last-minute emergency, where the Box Battle Championship organizers may add or remove a creator. Any schedule changes are announced on the site before they take effect.

The field is limited to 8 creators.

The fundamental rule

1 TikTok Coin = 1 Point

A participant's points are the TikTok Coins received as gifts during the live. Every Coin received is worth exactly one point.

During the live, gifts are counted automatically, in real time; the official total is then confirmed by the Box Battle Championship organizers in the audited ledger — nothing else counts.

During the live, the coins received by each creator are counted automatically, in real time, from the TikTok feed, and shown on the live leaderboard. The official standings are then confirmed by the Box Battle Championship organizers from the audited score ledger.

At the end of the event the organizers freeze the official leaderboard for final verification; results are declared the same night or in the hours that follow.

The live's host and the DJ/animator do not compete: if they appear on the live leaderboard, they are not ranked there and do not count toward the official standings.

The Season 1 field is limited to 8 participants; only the top 3 of the creator leaderboard win a prize. Each creator place prize has a mandatory point target. A place prize is awarded only if the contestant finishing in that place has a final ledger total greater than or equal to that place's target:

  • Champion$2,000unlocks only at 1,000,000 points or more
  • Challenger$1,500unlocks only at 750,000 points or more
  • Contender$1,000unlocks only at 500,000 points or more

If a place's target is not met, that prize is not awarded. It does not roll down to lower-ranked contestants and is not redistributed.
