EVE Online tightens giveaway rules for creators

EVE Online tightens giveaway rules for creators

EVE Online’s updated giveaway policy took effect on 1 October 2026. Creators using in-game assets must limit giveaways to one per rolling hour and cannot link them to paid support outside qualifying charity streams.

• The policy limits creators to one giveaway in any rolling 60-minute period.

• Subscriptions, Bits, donations, and other paid support cannot unlock, accelerate, or boost giveaways, except under a narrow charity-stream exception.

• The rules cover giveaways involving EVE assets across platforms, including Twitch, YouTube, and Discord.

• Charity giveaways still retain the hourly limit and cannot give donors extra entries or better odds.
