Common Questions

Yes — in most of the US. RivalPrize operates as a skill-based contest platform, the same legal category as daily fantasy sports (DFS) sites like DraftKings and FanDuel. Courts and regulators distinguish skill-based competitions from gambling because the outcome depends on player ability, not chance. That said, a handful of states have laws that cover skill contests too, so we can't currently serve players in Arizona, Iowa, Hawaii, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, or South Dakota. Everyone else is good to go.
We charge a 10% entry fee from each player. Put up $50 — $5 goes to us, your opponent puts up $50 — $5 goes to us. If you win, you collect $90. No subscription fees, no monthly charges, and no cost to browse or post a challenge. We only make money when a contest completes.
Both players submit the result independently. When they agree, funds release automatically. If there's a dispute, we ask both players to provide evidence — screenshots, clips, or recorded gameplay. We have no access to your console or game data, so that documentation is on you. Take a screenshot of the final score before you back out.
Deposits and withdrawals both go through PayPal. Your balance sits in your RivalPrize wallet and is yours until you enter a contest — at that point it's locked to that match until it resolves. New accounts start with a $50 deposit limit while we verify activity; that limit increases as your account history grows.
