HOW TO PLAY

JOIN A SEASON

Just hit the ‘PLAY’ button to join a season and start predicting! Questions and prizes for the 2023 NBA Playoffs season will be active through the last buzzer of the NBA Finals, and the 2023 MLB season will be open all the way through the final out of the World Series. You have until then to climb the ranks and start earning prizes!

You can play along with all your favorite sports when they’re in season — check back in the fall to join seasons for this year’s NFL and NHL action!

MAKE PREDICTIONS

It’s super simple — once you’ve joined a season, look at the daily schedule to pick a game and start swiping through dozens of questions to make your predictions.

EARN XP

Earning experience (XP) is easy. All you have to do is play! It doesn’t matter if you’re a Sports God or the worst predictor on the planet. The more you play, the more XP you earn, the more you level up. The more you level up, the more prizes you win!

RANK UP

You’ll earn Rank Score within each season you play in. The more you predict right, the more you rank up, the more you win! While you can earn XP by playing anything, Rank Score is only earned for the season you’re making predictions in. Earn new prizes every time you rank up and see if you can climb from Bronze all the way to Sports God before the season is over 📈

DOUBLE DOWN

Feeling really confident you know what’s going to happen? Double Down on a prediction to earn a Rank Score multiplier if you get it right! Be careful though — guess wrong and you’ll lose more Rank Score than you’d like.

YOUR PREDICTION RECORD

To see the status of your predictions on any given day, tap the “Results” tab on the bottom left corner of the screen. To find your all-time record and statistics by season, team, and against other Stakers, just go to your Stakes profile and scroll down!

SPORTS GOD AVATARS

Your Sports God isn’t just your Stakes avatar — it represents you and your digital sports fan identity! Choose from hundreds of items to create a Sports God that’s uniquely you. See below and click here for more information on how to build your Sports God.

WHERE IS MY SPORTS GOD?

Just tap on the Sports God in the top left corner of your “Play” menu when you open the app to visit your profile! That’s also where you can find your Sports God, choose your favorite teams, and update your settings by opening the “Me” tab on the bottom-right of the screen.

STYLING YOUR SPORTS GOD

To view the gear in your Locker and update your Sports God, tap the “Style Avatar” button in the top right corner of your profile. Collect gear and make your Sports God truly one-of-a-kind!

Storing and Transferring TROPHIES

When you win a Stakes NFT, it can be viewed in the Trophy Case section of your profile. Your NFTs are safely held in the Stakes crypto-wallet on OpenSea until you choose to claim them.

To transfer your Stakes NFTs to your personal crypto-wallet, open your Trophy Case, select the “Withdraw” option, and follow the prompts to enter your wallet address and submit your payment. Please allow 3-5 days for processing of the transfer.

What is the token ID on my Stakes NFT?

The Token ID is the number that identifies your NFT among the other editions minted.

What is the transaction ID on my Stakes NFT?

The transaction ID is a confirmation that the NFT is minted on the blockchain. Each time the same NFT is transferred or sold to a new wallet, a different transaction ID is created as proof of transaction.

What does total minted mean?

“Total minted” is the number of editions of this unique NFT that appear on the blockchain. The number of NFTs minted corresponds to the number of users who were awarded the associated NFT.

what are stakes nfts worth?

Like any other NFT, the value of a Stakes NFT is determined by its popularity and rarity. Therefore, there is no fixed value on any NFT and the value can fluctuate based on the community’s interest.

LOOT LOCKERS

Sports God gear can be acquired in Loot Lockers, which are found in the “Shop” tab at the bottom of your screen.

Loot Lockers come in Common, Rare, and Legendary editions, with each one giving you three of 21 available pieces of gear of different rarities.

LOCKER KEYS

How do you get your hands on a Loot Locker? Collect Loot Locker keys! Earn Common, Rare, and Legendary keys by ranking up in a season or leveling up with XP. That’s not all — you can gain additional Loot Locker keys in any of the following ways:

Invite your friends to play Stakes and earn 10 Common Loot Locker Keys when they sign up using your personal invite code
Join our Discord and participate in other Stakes contests to earn extra Locker Keys both in and out of season
Purchase Locker Keys in the Stakes Shop

SPORTS GOD GEAR

With tons of items and seven different customizable elements, you’ll have THOUSANDS of ways to make sure your Sports God represents YOU as a sports fan!

Just like Loot Lockers, each piece of Sports God gear comes in one of three rarities: Common, Rare, and Legendary. Anyone can fill their Locker with Common gear, but only the best in the game can deck their Sports God in the coolest Rare and Legendary items.
