Would love to participate in the new Contra × Cantina challenge, but there’s an access issue.
I was excited to see the new challenge and would have genuinely liked to participate and showcase my work.
Unfortunately, I’m currently unable to access Cantina from Pakistan, which means I can’t take part in the challenge.
I understand that platforms may have regional availability limitations, but it would be great to see more clarity around which countries are supported and whether talented independents from other markets can participate.
I’d genuinely love to take part in future Contra × Cantina opportunities, especially around B2B, Lead Generation, Sales Research and Market Research.
@Cantina / @Contra, is Cantina currently unavailable for Pakistan-based users, or is there another way for international independents to participate?
Would love to hear from anyone else who has faced the same issue.
Hi Faiz, I’m also from Pakistan and was interested in joining the Cantina Challenge. Were you able to find any way to access Cantina Creator Studio from Pakistan, or did Contra/Cantina confirm that it isn’t available here? Thanks!
Arsalan, Honestly, I’m trying to find that out myself. I haven’t found a working way to access Cantina Creator Studio from Pakistan yet, and I haven’t received a clear confirmation from Contra or Cantina either.Hopefully we can get some clarity on this soon. If I find anything useful, I’ll definitely let you know.
Thanks Faiz, appreciate the update. I’ll keep an eye out as well. If I find any official information or a way to access it from Pakistan, I’ll let you know too. Hopefully we get some clarity soon!
hi faiz same as u i am also from pakistan and cant join this challenge i am also finding some another way to get acces to cantina as i found it so i will tell u but i think the contina dont acces to pakistan user
I found a way send them a request saying the problem we face and then they will reply by email. That's all I did it now and u should also do it. Hope it will be helpfull
Hi, same issue here in the UK. Cantina accepts my UK phone number and says the signup link has been sent, but no SMS/link arrives even after multiple attempts. I’ve joined the Contra challenge, but can’t create the Cantina account required for Creator Studio access. Hopefully...
Yeah, I've also highlighted this to Contra and they looking into it, fingers crossed xx
