Real Money vs Points
Sidepot has two ways to play. Pick the one that fits your group.
Points Mode
Points are free, fake currency. Use them to practice, test predictions with your friends, or just have fun without any real stakes.
- Everyone starts with free points
- No deposits or withdrawals
- Great for trying out the app
- Available everywhere
Real Money Mode
Real money is exactly what it sounds like. Deposit from your bank, make predictions, and withdraw your winnings back to your account.
- Deposit USD from your bank or card
- Your balance shows in dollars
- Winners can withdraw to their bank
- Availability varies by location
Start with points. Get comfortable with how predictions work before putting real money on the line.
