No. An entry fee you have paid for one competition cannot be shifted to another, and a UNI Membership does not change that.
Paid entry fees
Competition entry fees are non-refundable once paid, and there is no credit, voucher or carry-over that turns an unused registration into payment for a different competition. That is the same on every membership tier.
If you registered for the wrong competition, or your plans changed, contact the UNI team with the competition name and the entry in question and ask. Changes like this are made by a person, case by case, so there is no guaranteed outcome. There is no self-serve control for it in your account.
Entries you never submit
An entry you never attach work to stays in your list as an empty entry. It is not judged, and it is not converted into anything you can use elsewhere. Nothing about it happens automatically.
The Detach work button on an entry card detaches your work from that entry. It does not cancel the registration and it does not refund the fee. Duplicate or unwanted competition entries explains exactly what Detach work, Archive and Restore each do.
Registrations made with a membership entry
Semester, Annual, Studio and Institutional memberships include a set number of competition entries per membership period. Registering with one spends it at that moment.
- Detaching your work later does not put the entry back into your quota.
- Included entries are counted from the day your current membership period started.
- Weekly and Monthly include no entries, so on a paid competition those tiers always pay the entry fee.
- Free competitions never use an included entry.
Because an included entry is spent at registration and cannot be moved afterwards, pick the competition you actually want before you register. Membership tiers and pricing lists how many entries each tier includes.
Membership fees are separate
Membership fees follow their own rules. Weekly and Monthly memberships are non-refundable. Semester, Annual, Studio and Institutional memberships are non-refundable after 30 days from purchase. The 7.5% payment gateway charge is non-refundable in every case. If you cancel a membership, entries registered under it are cancelled with it and you would have to register again.
