Kongregate used to continuously offers weekly and monthly contests for the highest rated games that were published within the contest time-frame. There were cash prizes, with the top prize having been $1500.

The contests[]

Every game uploaded to Kongregate was eligible to compete for the weekly and monthly prizes, whether or not these games are also uploaded to other sites. Winners were determined solely by the rating system on the site where any user may vote once per game. A game must have ha a minimum of 10 votes to compete in the Weekly contest and 30 votes to compete in the monthly contest. In order to be able to claim the monthly prizes, games must have also implemented Kongregate's Statistics API. Kongregate retained the right to exclude votes that they feel were made in a fraudulent manner. This was to prevent a developer with multiple accounts to upvote his/her game. The same goes for having encouraged fans to create multiple accounts to upvote or downvote games. All uploaded games participating in these contests were also fully eligible for ad revenue share.

The last monthly contest was held in April 2020. They have since been retired.
