The challenges and their prices
A Bankroll U challenge has two parts. The Combine is the paid part. To pass it, you make a 15% profit on the starting balance and reach an activity target, all within 14 days. Four Pro Levels follow: Rookie, Veteran, All Star and Legend. They are free to play, and you reach them only by passing the Combine. The help center says Bankroll U charges no subscription fee.
Bankroll U also runs Battles, single-day and week-long contests that are free to join and pay cash prize pools. This review covers the Combine and the Pro Levels.
| Combine bankroll | Price | Max risk per pick, pregame | Max risk per pick, live and props | Max win per pick |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $1,000 | $49 | $100 | $50 | $200 |
| $5,000 | $245 | $500 | $250 | $1,000 |
| $10,000 | $490 | $1,000 | $500 | $2,000 |
The targets rise from level to level, and so does the bonus. The loss limit shrinks.
| Level | Profit target | Bonus on the level's profit | Loss limit | Time limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Combine (paid) | 15% | None | 100% | 14 days |
| Rookie | 20% | 10% | 100% | 14 days |
| Veteran | 25% | 20% | 90% | 14 days |
| All Star | 30% | 40% | 80% | 14 days |
| Legend | 40% | 80% | 60% | 14 days |
The rules
These rules come from the challenges page, the gameplay rules, the contest rules, the terms of service and the help center.
| Rule | What the operator publishes |
|---|---|
| Activity target | At every level, the total amount staked must equal the level's starting balance. Only settled picks count. There is no minimum number of picks. |
| Time limit | 14 days per level, to hit both the profit target and the activity target. |
| Daily loss limit | None. The home page says its contest rules never include daily loss limits or trailing drawdowns. |
| Odds | No pick on odds shorter than -500. |
| Risk per pick | Pregame: 10% of the initial account size. Live and props: 5%. Maximum risk per event: 20%. Maximum win per pick: 20%. |
| Pick types | Spreads, totals, props, live picks and pregame picks. |
| Sports | Not published. The public pages say only "Spreads, Totals, Props, Live Picks and More". |
| Failing a level | The bankroll is removed and the challenge ends. Bonuses already credited stay yours. |
| Funds | Virtual currency only. The gameplay rules say the service has no mechanism to deposit real funds or stake real money on simulated picks. |
| Platform | Picks go through the Games module, a simulator with real-time markets. Bankroll U has a web app and an iOS app. |
| Tuition Points | Credits included with each Combine. They unlock learning content in the Campus section. |
| Refund | Possible within 14 days of purchase, if no pick was placed in the Combine and no Tuition Points were used. The terms add that refunds are at Bankroll U's discretion. |
| Free entry | The challenges page says "No purchase required". The contest rules describe a free Combine entry requested by mail. |
| Inactivity | After 90 days without activity, the account is marked inactive. An unused Combine and its Tuition Points are then forfeited, with no refund. |
| Payment methods | Credit or debit cards, or online banking through Plaid. |
| Access | The contest rules open the Pro Levels to residents of the United States aged 18 or over. Players located in Idaho, Louisiana, Michigan, Nevada and Washington cannot take part. Prices in US dollars. The site is in English. |
Payouts
Nothing is paid during the Combine. In the Pro Levels, a bonus is credited to your Prize Wallet when you pass a level: 10% of the level's profit at Rookie, 20% at Veteran, 40% at All Star and 80% at Legend. The bonus is taken out of the bankroll you carry to the next level. The challenge ends when you fail a level or pass Legend.
The help center gives its own example: a $1,000 bankroll, bought for $49, where each target is hit exactly.
| Level | Starting balance | Profit at the target | Bonus credited |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rookie | $1,000 | $200 | $20 |
| Veteran | $1,180 | $295 | $59 |
| All Star | $1,416 | $425 | $170 |
| Legend | $1,671 | $668 | $534 |
| Total | $1,588 | $783 |
In that example the four bonuses add up to $783, about half of the $1,588 of profit made across the Pro Levels. The 80% share applies only to the profit of the last level.
Once a prize is credited, you can withdraw it from the Prize Wallet, with one request per calendar day. The minimum is $25 and the maximum is $2,500 per calendar day. Bankroll U cites one method: a direct bank transfer through Plaid. The help center says you can withdraw once identity verification is finished.
Bankroll U says it processes requests the same day, and that the time to reach your account depends on your bank. A withdrawal request cannot be canceled. The contest rules give 90 days to request a credited prize. After that, Bankroll U reserves the right to mark the balance as inactive and to keep restricting its withdrawal.
For players in Florida and New York, the contest rules cap withdrawals at $5,000 per contest period. The rest is deferred to the next period.
