- Distribution of company logos, product images, etc. that cohabitate or are superimposed on the screen during game play is prohibited.

Q&A
| Q | A |
| Can I say that I have been sponsored by a company when I receive an in-kind donation through this program? | No. Receipt of an in-kind donation under this program does not mean that you have received a sponsorship agreement. It is only a state of receiving support. If a company recognizes your activities while you are a recipient of support, you may be able to sign a sponsorship contract. Some companies will only provide in-kind support. |
|---|---|
| How long will this program run? | Currently, there is no set time period, so you will have the opportunity to enter every month. However, we reserve the right to discontinue the program without notice for any reason. |
| What should I do after my channel follower count exceeds 3,000? | We will send a message as an "Important Notice" between the 1st and 8th of each month to distributors whose channel follower count has exceeded 3,000. You will become a certified distributor only after receiving the message. Once you become a certified distributor, you will be able to enter each company's project. |
| Is there a limit to the number of donors who can donate goods first? | There is no set limit. |
| Can I participate in this event from overseas? | This event is open to residents of Japan only. |
| Will there be more sponsors or programs in the future? | There is a possibility that the number of sponsors and programs will increase. |
Matching distributors and companies smoothly
With the introduction of "OPENREC.tv Sponsorship (beta version)", matching distributors and companies is expected to be smoother than in the past, where both parties had to be actively involved and it was a labor-intensive process.
Although currently in beta, as more companies and distributors use the service, the matching process will become smoother and the industry as a whole will become more exciting.
