The official CapCut editing competition for storytellers who move people. Win up to $10,000 and give back to a cause that matters.
The CapCut Creators Cup was set up to encourage video editors to keep up the good work — the late nights, the obsessive frame trimming, the second-guessing of a transition. We celebrate the edit. We reward the storyteller. And every prize gives something back through our charity partners.

CapCut is proud to partner with organizations doing real work in the world. Winners choose where their donation goes.
Yes. Entry to the CapCut Creators Cup is completely free. You only need a CapCut account and an original edit to submit.
A panel of CapCut editors and guest judges scores entries on creativity, technical skill, storytelling, and use of CapCut features. Community votes count toward 20% of the final score.
Prizes are paid within 14 days of the winner announcement, after identity and originality checks are complete.
Any dispute about scoring, eligibility, or originality is reviewed by an independent three-person panel. Their decision is final and is communicated within 7 days of the dispute being raised.
Submissions for Season 05 close August 31. One link. One minute. One shot.
