Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about ScorePlay: the game, ScorePoints, leagues, the leaderboard, and your account.
General
What is ScorePlay?
ScorePlay is a free skill game built around predicting the exact score. Anyone can pick a winner; calling the scoreline is the real test. You earn ScorePoints from accuracy, climb the leaderboard, and compete in private leagues with your friends. See How it works. (Season 1's optional World Cup pool is settled and closed — see USDC pool.)
Can I play without money?
Yes. Free play is the full game, available to everyone worldwide except sanctioned countries. You predict scorelines, earn ScorePoints, and compete on the leaderboard with no money or cryptocurrency required.
Do I need cryptocurrency or a wallet to start?
No. You can sign in with Google and play for free, with no wallet and no crypto. A wallet is just another way to sign in.
Which blockchain does ScorePlay use?
Playing needs no blockchain at all. Season 1's (now closed) pools settled on Base; a wallet today is only a sign-in method.

See Getting Started for the full walkthrough.
How do I connect my wallet?
Click "LOG IN" at the top right, choose your wallet (MetaMask, WalletConnect, and others), and approve the connection. You sign a message to authenticate. Optional — email and Google sign-in work the same.
What if I lose access to my wallet?
Wallets cannot be recovered by ScorePlay, so keep your recovery phrase safe. If you signed in another way, this does not affect you.
Predicting and ScorePoints
How does a prediction work?
Pick the scoreline you expect on the grid; that also sets the winner. You can change your prediction any time before kickoff, and it locks at kickoff. Full detail in How predictions work.
How do I earn ScorePoints?
You earn some SP for making a prediction, more for calling the winner, and the most for the exact score. SP is credited automatically. See ScorePoints (SP) for the values.
Does using USDC change my ScorePoints?
No — and there is nothing to buy anymore. The leaderboard is ranked by total SP; during Season 1 money never changed SP either.
Leaderboard, Qualification and Champions
What are Score Qualification and Score Champions?
On a normal week both run at once on the same SP from the same predictions. Score Qualification is the open ladder (everyone); Score Champions is the elite ladder (players who qualified). You qualify for Champions by finishing top 25 on Qualification or top 10 on Champions the week before. Full rules and the prize split are in Leaderboard, Qualification and Champions.
Why don't my early predictions on far-future matches count this week?
SP for the weekly ladders is attributed by the match's kickoff time, not when you predicted. An early pick counts in the week the match is played.
The USDC pool (Season 1 — closed)
What happened to the pool?
The optional paid pools ran during the World Cup 2026 and are settled and closed. ScorePlay is now fully free: no entries, no stakes, no deposits. The record of how Season 1's pool worked is at USDC pool.
Which score counts for settlement?
The 90-minute result. Extra time and penalties do not change the recorded score. The one exception was World Cup knockouts for "who wins" markets, which settled on the team that advanced. Full detail in Results and fairness.
