Bet with friends on the NFL, NBA, NHL, NRL, soccer, tennis and handball — no real money. Predict.Compete.Win.

pickplay.bet — often searched as pickplay or Pick Play — is a free app to bet with friends on sports using virtual points — a private sports prediction game covering the NFL, European soccer, the NBA, the NHL, the NRL, tennis and handball. Members of a private circle pick the winner of upcoming games — or Home Win (1), Draw (X), Away Win (2) in soccer and handball — earn virtual points for correct picks, and can challenge each other in head-to-head Battles by staking points on single games. No real money is involved.

No. pickplay.bet is not a gambling website and is not regulated as gambling. No real money is wagered, won, or lost at any point. All "bets" use virtual points with no monetary value — it's a skill-based prediction game played between friends for bragging rights.

Completely free. No real money, no credit card, no subscription, no ads. You create a circle, invite your friends, and start picking. All bets use virtual points — no monetary value, no risk.

Seven: NFL, soccer, NBA, tennis, ice hockey, handball and rugby. NFL, NBA, NHL and rugby picks are straight winner picks — home or away, with hockey settled after overtime and the shootout. Tennis picks are player A or player B. Soccer and handball use the classic 1X2 format because a draw is possible. Every sport scores the same way, so one circle can mix all seven on a single leaderboard.

Create a private circle on pickplay.bet, share the invite link, and everyone picks the winner of every NFL or NBA game before kickoff or tip-off. Correct picks earn virtual points weighted by the odds, a Lock of the Week doubles your surest call, and a head-to-head Battle lets you stake points against one friend on one game. Scoring is automatic when the game ends, and no real money is ever involved. See the dedicated NFL and NBA pages for details.

Yes. Soccer circles cover the UEFA Champions League, Europa League, Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A and Ligue 1. Every fixture is a 1X2 pick — Home Win, Draw or Away Win — scored automatically at full time, with a Banker for double points and Battles for head-to-head bets between mates.

A Banker is a high-confidence flag you place on your most certain prediction. A correct Banker earns 2× the normal points. An incorrect one earns 0. You can only have one Banker active at a time, so choose wisely.

A Battle is a head-to-head challenge between two circle members on a single game. Both players stake virtual points before kickoff. The player with the correct pick wins the full pot. If both are right or both are wrong, stakes are returned.

Your picks lock the moment the first game in a round kicks off. After that, no edits are possible. Picks for later games in the same round stay editable until their own kickoff.

No. Picks are hidden from everyone until kickoff. No copying, no last-second switching based on what someone else chose. Everyone goes in blind.

Soccer: UEFA Champions League (29 games), Premier League (England, 52 games), La Liga (Spain, 48 games), Bundesliga (Germany, 34 games), Serie A (Italy, 44 games), Ligue 1 (France, 40 games) and the UEFA Europa League. NFL: regular season, playoffs, and the Super Bowl. Basketball: the NBA regular season, playoffs, and the Finals, plus the EuroLeague. Ice hockey: the NHL through the Stanley Cup Playoffs, Sweden's SHL and Finland's Liiga. Handball: the German Handball-Bundesliga. Rugby: the NRL, State of Origin and the Six Nations. Tennis: the four Grand Slams plus ATP and WTA tour events. The circle owner selects which sport and competition the group follows.

Scoring is fully automatic when a final score is confirmed. A correct pick earns the circle's base points multiplied by the odds of the outcome you picked — so calling a 1.54 favorite with 10 base points pays 15.4, and a 3.20 underdog pays 32. A correct Banker doubles that. An incorrect pick — including a wrong Banker — earns 0. Circle owners can switch to flat scoring if they prefer. Battle stakes settle at the same moment: the correct predictor wins the full pot; if both are right or both are wrong, stakes are returned. Scores sync after the final whistle — no manual work, no disputes.

Yes. There is no limit on how many circles you can join or create. Each circle is fully independent — separate predictions, separate leaderboard, separate Battles. The same game can appear in multiple circles, and each membership requires its own pick.

The circle owner shares a single invite link. Friends click it, sign in or create an account, and they are in. Holding the invite link is the invitation — whoever opens it is in the circle straight away, with no approval queue to babysit. Up to 20 members per circle — a deliberate cap, because the leaderboard is funnier when you know every name on it. Circles are invite-only and never appear on a public leaderboard. Listing one in the public directory is a separate, opt-in choice — and that is the only route that waits on the owner's approval.

If both players pick the same outcome and it's correct, staked points are returned to both. If both are wrong, stakes are also returned. Points only transfer when exactly one player has the correct prediction.

Yes. pickplay.bet is a mobile-optimized web app — no download required. Predictions, Battles, leaderboard, and brackets all work on any modern smartphone browser.

Yes. It is free, runs in the browser with nothing to install, involves no money and scores every game automatically, which makes it an easy office pool or company prediction game: one person creates a circle and posts the link in Slack or Teams. Choose Company when you create the circle and it holds up to 300 colleagues, carries the company's name and logo, and starts private; the circle owner can switch the banter features off for a work-safe table. Friends circles hold 20.
