Free Tournament Tickets: Win Entry to Paid Tournaments
On PnL World, the top 3 in free tournaments win entry tickets to paid tournaments. What each place wins, how long tickets last, and how to use them.
Free tournaments on PnL World have a real prize: entry tickets. The top three finishers win a ticket that lets them enter a paid tournament without paying the entry fee — a direct path from a free start to a prize-pool event.
What each place wins
| Place | Prize |
|---|---|
| 1st | Ticket to a $20 tournament + the Free tournament winner title on the public trader card |
| 2nd | Ticket to a $5 tournament |
| 3rd | Ticket to a $5 tournament |
The first free tournament with tickets is the PnL Community Cup (19–25 October 2026).
How tickets work
- A ticket replaces the entry fee. You enter the paid tournament as a full participant; the entry is added to the prize pool by the platform.
- Valid for 7 days. Your tickets, and when they can be used, are shown in your account under Tickets.
- Use them on tournaments that accept tickets.
- Withdrawn entry? If you leave a tournament before it starts, the ticket comes back to you.
- The prize is the ticket itself, not cash.
Why tickets, not cash
Tickets keep free tournaments about what they should be: a fair, free way to prove yourself and step up to bigger events. The winner gets the chance to play for a real prize pool — and the title stays on the public card for good.
How to win one
Free tournaments use the same rules as every PnL World tournament:
- Place = final result — return after fees and funding, with open positions counted as if closed at the mark price, including the exit fee.
- Ties go to the smaller max drawdown, then the earlier entry.
- A trader whom a liquidation leaves at 10% or less of the starting bankroll is marked Liquidated and ranks last.
- Every finish also earns PWR points — the Community Cup carries the Weekly weight (250 for the winner).
