Great question! Due to global and local competition law and prize distribution restrictions, the legal team felt it necessary to restrict global participation to the few eligible countries we have listed. I asked the team and it looks like Italy has strict registration requirements and contests in Italy are not allowed to be open to residents of multiple countries.
Thank you,
