Thanks to the community's feedback, the 5 Actor limit has been removed from the Apify $1M Challenge.
Any Actors you publish that meet the challenge criteria are now eligible to earn you rewards.
Instead of limiting your entries to the first 5 Actors you published after entering the challenge, we will calculate bonus payouts based on your top 5 best-performing Actors at the close of the challenge on January 31, 2026, even if they were your 6th or 60th Actor.
If you publish 20 Actors today, any one of them could earn you enough users to benefit from the rewards payout at the end of January.
Full details in the updated Challenge Terms.
Please note: This doesn't mean all your Actors will be eligible for payouts, just your top 5 best-performing ones.
