NOMINATION GUIDE

8th VP Choice Awards Nomination Process

The nomination process for the 8th VP Choice Awards (VPCA) is opening once again! This annual initiative aims to engage the PIPOL and empower agencies, organizations, and institutions to recognize the most deserving personalities and brands across various award categories.

As in previous years, the nomination process will consist of four pathways:

  • Public Nominations – The PIPOL can nominate their favorite personalities and brands through official social media posts, the VPCA App, and the website.
  • Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) – The VP Editorial Team and industry experts will evaluate potential nominees through deliberations and discussions.
  • Agency and Institutional Nominations – Agencies, organizations, and institutions can endorse qualified representatives for selected award categories.
  • Pi-PoLL Power Pick – A special nomination pathway that allows the public to vote for their favorites in pre-selected categories. Winners automatically secure a nomination slot and receive an advantage during the final voting period.

For the 8th VP Choice Awards, selected categories under the Entertainment Division will each have one automatic nominee through Pi-PoLL Power Pick. These winners will also receive an 8% Vote Boost advantage during the final voting period in February 2027.

The remaining nomination slots will undergo evaluation by the VP Editorial Team and industry experts, including FGDs where applicable.

Pi-PoLL Power Pick Advantage

Winning a Pi-PoLL Power Pick voting batch provides two key advantages:

  1. Automatic Nomination

The winner automatically secures a nomination slot in the 8th VP Choice Awards for the corresponding category.

  1. 8% Vote Boost

The winner receives an additional 8% vote bonus during the final Pi-PoLL voting period in February 2027.

Example:

If a winner receives 10,000 votes during the final voting period, an 8% bonus adds 800 votes, bringing the total to 10,800 votes.

The bonus will be applied according to the official voting rules and procedures.

 

Strict Compliance and Voting Guidelines

To protect the integrity and fairness of the voting process, all participants must follow these rules:

  • Only votes that comply with the official Voting Rules and Procedures will count.
  • Third-party voting services are strictly prohibited.
  • The Choicely system uses anti-bot security measures to help detect suspicious voting activity.
  • Avoid uninstalling and reinstalling the VPCA App while voting is ongoing, as doing so may affect locally stored app data. Previously recorded votes remain securely stored on Choicely’s servers.
  • Choicely’s security system will audit voting activity at the end of each voting period to identify and remove spam or bot-generated entries.
  • The VP Choice Awards and Choicely administrators reserve the right to reject invalid votes and take appropriate action against individuals who tamper with the voting process or engage in unsportsmanlike conduct.

 

Nominee Evaluation Process

All public, agency, and institutional nominations will undergo review by the VP Editorial Team, industry experts, and FGDs where applicable.

The evaluation process will consider the eligibility and suitability of candidates for their respective categories.

Pi-PoLL Power Pick winners will automatically secure their nomination slots and will not undergo the regular evaluation process for those slots.

Other potential nominees, including candidates who did not win a Pi-PoLL Power Pick batch, may still qualify through the standard nomination and evaluation process.
