See how it works
Fair by design

A contest flow people can actually trust.

Registration and voting are deliberately separated. Everyone gets the same starting line, and every public photo has already passed moderation.

Read our safety approach
01

Register

Parent signs in, adds participant details and uploads the contest photo.

02

Verify

Admin checks eligibility, consent and the submitted photo before approval.

03

Vote

Approved entries open together after registration and verification are complete.

04

Celebrate

Valid votes are counted and age-group winners are published transparently.

Built for families

Privacy and fairness are not afterthoughts.

PicStar is designed so the public sees the contest — not a child’s private information.

Private by default

Mobile number, email, full date of birth and guardian details stay away from public entry pages.

Photos are reviewed

Submissions do not automatically become public. Moderators review them before publication and voting.

Rules are visible

Contest phase, age-group structure, registration capacity and voting rules are displayed clearly.
