The rules
These rules come from the home page and from an assessment PDF published on the site.
| Rule | What the operator publishes |
|---|---|
| Profit target | 33% at every step. No target at the funded stage. |
| Time limit | 30 days per step. Step 1 of the Blitz Challenge: 48 hours. |
| Maximum loss | 20% of the balance. |
| Daily loss | 15% of the balance in the evaluation steps. None at step 1 of the Blitz Challenge. |
| Stake per pick | From 1% to 10% of the balance. |
| Minimum picks | 25 per step. None at step 1 of the Blitz Challenge. The card on the home page reads "Minimum Picks $25", with a dollar sign. |
| Minimum odds | -500 or higher at the funded stage, according to the assessment PDF. |
| Inactivity | At the funded stage, 7 days without a pick breach the account. A weekly minimum number of picks also applies. |
| Sports | The home page names soccer, football (NFL), hockey, baseball and basketball. |
| Pick types | The interface mock-up on the home page shows single picks, multi picks and a live pick. |
| Funds | Virtual profit points. The site says no real money wagering occurs on it. |
| Free trial | The navigation has a "Demo" link. It returned an error on October 3, 2026. We found no other free trial. |
| Refund | None once the login details are emailed. In some special circumstances, a refund is possible if no pick was placed. The same policy also says refund requests must be made within 14 days of the transaction. |
| Access | No target country shown. Prices in US dollars. The site is in English. |
The PDF and the home page differ on some amounts. For the $2,000 3 Step Challenge, the PDF gives a daily loss of $350 and the page $300. For the $2,000 Blitz Challenge, the PDF gives a maximum loss of $500 and the page $400. This review uses the home page figures.
Payouts
The home page says you will "earn up to 70% rewards" once you reach the targets, and that the share can rise to 80% based on your performance. It advertises up to 80% for the Blitz Challenge. The assessment PDF is firmer: 70% of the notional net profit, after representative picking costs and any carried-over representative losses.
You can request a first withdrawal 30 days after you become a live funded picker. A second can follow 15 days later, then one every two weeks. The home page advertises "24 Hour Withdrawals" and does not detail the real delay.
Withdrawals are capped. The assessment PDF sets these limits.
| Format | Maximum profit per withdrawal cycle | Monthly rewards cap |
|---|---|---|
| Blitz Challenge | 10% of the balance | 10% per month |
| 2 Step Challenge | 50% of the balance | 35% on the first withdrawal, 45% on the second, 50% from the third |
| 3 Step Challenge | 25% of the balance | 25% |
The minimum payout and the payout methods are not published on the pages we could read. The site's FAQ returned an error on October 3, 2026. Payment methods at checkout appear only after you add a challenge to the cart, a step we did not take.
