What are Competitions?

Betting on a single game provides excitement, but competitions amplify the thrill by:

• Creating friendly rivalry across multiple games or an entire season
• Showcasing your sports knowledge against friends or the community
• Building camaraderie through shared betting experiences
• Offering a chance to win from a combined prize pool

Competitions (also called pools) can be customized to suit your group's preferences, whether you're looking for a casual office pool, a podcast listener challenge, discord group, or serious competition among experienced bettors.

BettorEdge offers several competition formats to match your preferred betting style:
