    How it works

    Three steps, about two minutes

    1. Pick and write

    Choose a challenge and three to six daily rules you can answer with a yes or no. Small and specific beats big and vague.

    2. Sign it

    Your name, your dates, your motto. A signed page is harder to quietly forget than a note on your phone.

    3. Keep it visible

    Print the contract with a month calendar, set it as your lock screen, and check off each day in the tracker.

    Questions

    Good to know

    Is Challenge Contract free? Do I need an account?

    It is free and needs no account. Your contract and daily check-ins are stored only in your own browser. Clearing your browser data removes them, so save the image or print the calendar as a backup.

    When does Dry January 2027 start and end?

    Dry January covers the whole month: Friday, January 1 to Sunday, January 31, 2027, which is 31 days. You can also start on another day and run 31 days from there.

    Which challenges can I plan here?

    Dry January, Damp January, Dry February, Sober October, a no-spend month, a no-buy year, 75 Soft, a no-sugar challenge, a 30-day fitness challenge, or a custom challenge with your own name, rules and dates, from 7 days up to a full year. Each one starts with suggested rules and dates that you can change.

    What if I slip during my challenge?

    Note it honestly and carry on the next day. The contract's never-miss-twice rule means one off day does not end the challenge, and the tracker reminds you when yesterday was missed.

    Should I talk to a doctor before an alcohol-free month?

    If you drink heavily or every day, yes. Stopping suddenly can be dangerous because of alcohol withdrawal, so talk to a doctor before you start.
