What are Champions Points

Participants in Champions contests are competing for the Champions Prize, the share of which is determined by the number of Champions Points accumulated by participants in the contests. The more Champions Points your winning entry accumulates, the greater your share of the Champions Prize.

To win a share of the Champions Prize, based upon Champions Points, you must first have a winning roster. This typically means either accurately predicting how all of the athletes in your roster will perform, or if you choose to flex your Champions contest entry, that most of your predictions will be accurate as shown at the time of entry.


How are Champions Points calculated?

Champions Points are calculated based on three factors: (1) the number of selections you choose; (2) the likelihood of those selections occurring (their difficulty); and (3) your entry fee.

Champions Points are the product of your entry fee and a multiplier, which is awarded based on the difficulty of your selections. For example, a standard $2 entry with a 6x difficulty multiplier = 12 Champions Points. As the difficulty multiplier scales, your expected payout scales.

Payouts are determined by dividing a winning customer’s Champions Points into the total number of winning Champions Points. In a typical Champions contest, the total number of Champions Points earned by winners will generally be 30,000, so that each Champion Point earned will equal $1. Thus, in the example above, a winning entry with 12 Champions Points will generally receive a $12 share of the total Champions Prize.
