Who can enter?

Entry is open to:

• Namibian and South African citizens residing in Namibia or South Africa.
• Participants aged 18 or older.
• Participants with a valid national identity document who meet the entry requirements.

The following people may not enter:

• Binary City employees, managers, directors, members and competition organisers.
• Agents, consultants, suppliers or service providers involved in organising, sponsoring or administering the competition.
• Their immediate family members, life partners and business partners.
• Anyone otherwise excluded under applicable law.

Eligibility and identity will be verified before a prize is paid.

Free entry

• Webinar registration and competition entry are free. No purchase or BC Time subscription is required.
• Participants are responsible for their normal internet and data costs. Binary City does not charge an additional competition entry fee.

Webinar cash prizes

• Two cash prizes of N$500 or R500 each are available at the first public BC Time Webinar, scheduled for Thursday, 26 November 2026.
• Each prize is paid in the applicable currency: Namibian dollars for a winner residing in Namibia, or South African rand for a winner residing in South Africa. 
• The prizes are awarded through a live question competition. The host will ask two questions based on the webinar session. The first eligible participant to answer each question correctly in the designated webinar chat, as shown in the organisers’ chat record, will be the provisional winner, subject to verification.
• Only attendees who have registered for the event through the Binary City website are eligible to win. Participants must attend live to answer; watching a recording does not qualify.

Live question competition rules

For each question:

• The host will announce when answers may be submitted.
• Answers must be posted in the designated webinar chat. Spoken answers and answers sent privately or through another channel will not count.
• Answers submitted before the host opens the question will not count.
• The first eligible participant to submit the correct answer, according to the organisers’ recorded chat order, wins the prize, subject to verification.
• Each person may win one cash prize per webinar. The second prize will therefore be awarded to a different winner.

Internet delays may affect the order in which messages appear. The organisers will use their recorded chat order to determine the winner. If the available record cannot establish a winner, the host may ask a replacement question. If no eligible participant answers correctly, the host may also ask a replacement question.

Contacting and confirming winners

Winners are provisional until their eligibility and identity have been verified.

Binary City will:

• Contact a potential winner within five business days of selection.
• Make reasonable contact attempts using the details supplied during registration.
• Allow 10 business days from the first contact attempt for a response and any reasonably required verification information.

If a potential winner does not respond within this period, is ineligible or cannot substantiate their eligibility, Binary City may select an alternate winner using the applicable competition process.

Binary City will provide a secure method for submitting identity and banking information. Winner communications will be sent from a bcity.me email address. Participants should not post identity or banking details in the webinar chat.

Prize payment

• Verified cash prizes will be paid by electronic bank transfer within 20 business days after verification is complete.
• The winner must provide suitable banking details for an account held in their name. Binary City will discuss a lawful alternative payment arrangement where reasonably necessary.
• No payment, purchase or administration fee is required to claim a prize. Binary City will never ask for a banking password, PIN or one-time password.

Technical problems

• Participants should ensure their device, internet connection and webinar access are working before the session.
• If a problem with the organisers’ systems materially affects the competition, Binary City may pause or reschedule the affected activity and communicate the revised arrangements.
• Technical issues will be assessed fairly using the available records.

Invalid entries and misconduct

An entry may be disqualified where there is a reasonable, documented basis to establish:

• False identity or materially inaccurate information.
• Duplicate or automated entries intended to obtain an unfair advantage.
• Attendance impersonation or participation on another person’s behalf.
• Tampering, fraud or interference with the competition.

Disqualification will not be based solely on a participant asking a question, raising a complaint or declining optional marketing.

Personal information and publicity

• Binary City will use registration and attendance information to administer the competition, verify eligibility, contact winners, pay prizes and meet applicable record-keeping obligations.
• Identity and banking information will not be published. 
• Competition entry does not automatically subscribe you to unrelated marketing. Any optional marketing consent will be requested separately.
• Winners may be invited to participate in photographs, testimonials or publicity. Participation in publicity is optional and declining will not affect the prize.

Changes, postponement or cancellation

• Binary City may make changes where reasonably necessary because of legal requirements or circumstances beyond its reasonable control.
• Material changes will be published on this page and communicated to affected participants where practicable. Changes will not unfairly remove a winner’s confirmed prize rights.

Queries and disputes

• Competition queries should be sent to Binary City Marketing and include the participant’s name, the relevant webinar and a description of the issue.
• The organisers will assess queries fairly using the available records. Their decisions remain subject to applicable law.

Acceptance

By entering, participants agree to these terms. These terms must be read together with the specific prize and entry information published for webinars.
