MAX MULTIPLE

If all picks win, you get a bigger payout (up to 250x your entry fee!).

Activate a social boost to increase your potential payout on cash entries that include 6+ picks. You will receive a 1x social boost for each friend that plays in the same game or contest as you, up to the Max Social Boost for each entry size below. For example, a 7-Pick Max Multiple Entry with 7/7 picks correct and 7 social boosts of 1x each will payout 57x your entry fee (50x plus the 7x Max Social Boost). All payouts are -1x when playing with Vivid Bucks and if payout is less than zero there is no payout.

đź’Ş Power-Ups

Power Ups are harder-to-win projections that can help you increase your winnings by multiplying your entry payout on winning entries. Power Ups are only available on Max Multiple entries and will be identified by a multiplier value on the player stat with the multiplier value. You must combine the Power Up pick with at least one other pick to submit an entry. The impact of adding any Power Up pick(s) to your entry will be clearly disclosed to you within the app before you lock in your entry. You may select multiple Power-Up picks within the same entry. Power Ups are not available on all projections. Power Up multipliers may vary; a max payout is not guaranteed.

More/Less Contests

As simple as it gets. Select More or Less for the chosen stat for each player.

Versus Contests

Predict the player who will win the matchup in each category. Pro tip: The “spread” is the number with a “+” next to the player’s avatar. This showcases how much the other player is favored by to help make the matchup between two players more even

What is a Social Boost?

A social boost increases your potential payout.

In order to activate a Social Boost, you and a friend (both must be following each other to qualify) must make a cash entry that includes 6+ picks for the same game, regardless of which players you take. The number of social boosts allowed equals the number of player selections in the entry. A six-player entry can have up to six friends added to your social boost.

What are Pre-Packaged Boosts?

Pre-Packaged Boosts are contests where we pre-select certain players and their stats for you to choose. In addition to simplifying the selection process, these contests also have a higher payout compared to standard contests. Note that Pre-Packaged Boost contests do not provide payout boosts with friends or partial credit. You will not be able to replicate the same players/stat values outside of the pre-packaged contest to receive the adjusted boost.

What does it mean when a player stat is highlighted as a promo?

Stat value promos are when we adjust a player’s normal projection to make it easier for a user to select options in an entry. When these promos are provided, users are only able to make one entry on each promo stat with a max dollar amount for that entry (e.g., $25).

What happens if a player doesn’t play?

If any of the players selected in your entry do not play, the selection with that player will be removed. Contest payouts for entries will be adjusted to match the number of remaining selections. However, entries with only one remaining selection, or players all on the same team, will be canceled and your entry fee will be fully refunded.

What happens if a player's stat value is the same as the projected value in the entry?

If any of the players selected in your entry have a final stat value equal to the projected value in your contest entry, the selection with that player will be removed. Contest payouts for entries will be adjusted to match the number of remaining selections. However, entries with only one remaining selection, or players all on the same team, will be canceled and your entry fee will be fully refunded.
