Hello Bubble Team , @Alex Ginsberg @Isabel Feuerstein , I'm writing to ask if it would be possible to submit my Bubble Challenge entry using the Preview link instead of a deployed application link.

I've completed my app along with all the other submission requirements, including the AI baseline proof, demo video, and written description. The only thing preventing me from submitting the deployed version is that deployment requires upgrading to the Starter plan.

I understand that Bubble offers a free trial, but unfortunately I haven't been able to activate it because it requires a valid credit card. I'm an international student from a developing country, and I don't currently have access to a working credit card that Bubble accepts. Because of this, I'm unable to deploy my app, even though it is fully functional in Preview mode.

This challenge means a lot to me. It has been an incredible opportunity to learn Bubble, challenge myself, and build something I'm genuinely proud of. I invested a great deal of time and effort into creating my project, and it would be heartbreaking if I couldn't participate solely because of a payment requirement that I'm unable to meet.

Since the Preview link is fully functional and allows judges to use the application, I wanted to kindly ask whether you could make an exception and accept the Preview link for my submission.

I completely understand if this isn't possible, but I would be incredibly grateful if you could consider my request. Participating in this competition is far more important to me than the prizes it's an opportunity to showcase my work, learn from the community, and compete alongside other builders.
