How to bet on sport without money
A prediction game, not a bookmaker: what changes, and what stays the same.
The first question everyone asks is where the catch is. There isn't one, because there is no money in the system at all: no deposit form, no card, no wallet, no withdrawal. What you are betting is a score kept by the site, called Arenas, and the site is the only place they exist.
That single design choice is what makes the whole thing free. A bookmaker needs your stake, because its business is the difference between what players wager and what it pays out. A prediction game has no stake to take, so what it sells is attention, and what it gives back is a reward.
What replaces the stake
- A prediction costs nothing. Placing one, changing it, or covering all three markets of a football match debits zero Arenas.
- A correct prediction credits Arenas, an amount set per market and per sport, doubled on the weekly boosted match.
- A wrong prediction costs nothing beyond the Arenas you did not earn. There is no balance to bring back up, and therefore nothing to chase.
Is it legal?
What regulators frame as gambling has three ingredients: a stake with monetary value, an element of chance, and a prize. Take away the stake and it stops being gambling — which is exactly why a free prediction game is not licensed as a betting operator and does not need to be.
We are not a bookmaker and we publish no odds, so nothing here can be wagered elsewhere. The detail of that position, and where to find help if real-money gambling has become a problem, is on the responsible gaming page.
How a result is decided
Automatically, from the score published by our data provider for that sport. Bets close 10 minutes before the event starts, the final score settles the markets, and a missing or impossible result voids every prediction rather than guessing. The providers are named on the data and method page.
Getting started in three minutes
- Create an account — a pseudonym, an email, a password. No card, ever.
- Take your welcome Arenas and open the list of matches.
- Predict a winner. Come back after the match to see the result settled.
