Full details are in the rules PDF.

The one big rule

No AI. Proof of process.

Every entry must be made by you, by hand. No AI-generated images, illustrations, vectors, backgrounds, patterns or text. Cropping, resizing and colour correction are fine.

We don’t use AI detectors. You show at least one of: sketches, a layered file, version history or a short screen recording. An entry without proof of process can be disqualified. Not sure whether a feature counts as AI? Ask on WhatsApp before you submit.

Key rules

The short version. The full rules are in the PDF below, and you agree to them when you register.

Who can enter
People aged 18 to 27 who live in Indonesia, including school and university students. One entry per person in each edition. You must be able to receive prize money in a bank account in your own name.
Format
Edition 1 theme: Human Interaction. One static design, 1080 × 1350 px (4:5 vertical), PNG or JPG, posted on your public Instagram with #DGEChallenge. Any design tool is fine, and licensed stock fonts and elements are allowed if their license permits it.
Judging
Concept 30%, originality and process 30%, execution 25%, theme fit 15%. Top three scores are published. Places 4 and 5 go to the most liked and commented entry posts. Comments from your own account do not count, and bought, automated or exchanged engagement leads to disqualification.
Rights
Places 1 to 3 transfer ownership and copyright of the winning design to DGE (you may still show it in your portfolio) and deliver one extra brand design. Everyone else keeps full ownership and gives DGE free, non-exclusive permission to display the entry with credit.
Fees and payout
Rp 75.000 per person, per edition. Prizes are paid to a bank account in the winner’s own name within 14 days of the announcement, with payout proof published. Prizes are shown before tax: income tax (PPh Article 21) is withheld at 5% for winners who provide a valid NIK or NPWP, and 6% without one.
Refunds
Full refund if an edition is cancelled or fewer than 50 valid paid entries are received. Refunds are sent within 7 days after registration closes, to the account you paid from. Otherwise fees are not refundable after confirmation, unless you cancel before registration closes (contact us on WhatsApp). Payment codes are personal, and sharing or selling one can lead to disqualification.
