Responsible Play

PoolDefy is a peer-vs-peer skill-based sports prediction platform. You compete against other users by making picks across multi-game contests. Entry fees are real money (USDC) and you can lose your entry fee if your picks are weaker than the field's.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Winning streaks are not predictive of future outcomes. Sporting events are inherently unpredictable.

Only participate with money you can afford to lose. Do not use funds allocated for essential expenses such as rent, bills, food, or debt repayment. Set a personal budget and stick to it.

Consider taking a break if you notice any of the following:

• Spending more than you planned or can afford
• Chasing losses by increasing entry fees
• Feeling stressed, anxious, or irritable about outcomes
• Neglecting other responsibilities or activities
• Borrowing money to fund entries
• Lying about how much time or money you spend on the platform

You can manage your activity through the following:

• Track your profit and loss on your profile page
• Review your full transaction history in the Wallet section
• Withdraw your balance at any time
• Contact support to request a temporary or permanent account restriction

If you need to take a break, contact us at support@pooldefy.com and we will restrict your account for a period of your choosing. Self-exclusion requests are processed promptly and are taken seriously.
