FAQ

Pick’Em Pool, answered

How does a Pick’Em pool work?
Each week, every entry picks the winner of each game — straight-up, or against a spread you set. Correct picks earn points (one each, or by confidence), and points accumulate into weekly and season standings. The top of the standings wins.
What’s the Squares Bonus?
A ChooseASquare original: pick a feature game each week and a 10×10 grid is tied to it. Every entry gets a square based on the game’s final score — hit yours and you earn bonus points or break a tie. It blends pick’em with the squares game everyone already loves.
Straight-up or against the spread?
Your choice. Straight-up is the simplest (just pick the winner). Against-the-spread — a Varsity+ option — lets you enter a point spread per game so favorites have to cover.
Can players have multiple entries?
On Varsity and up, yes. The free plan is one entry per person.
Is it free, and how do payouts work?
You can run a Pick’Em pool on the free Kickoff plan and keep 100% of the pot. Set an entry fee and your cut; supporters pay you directly and the platform never holds the money.
Does it work for sports besides the NFL?
Yes — build the weekly schedule from any league in your games library (college football, NBA, MLB, and more).
