Runs All Year, Every League
Fans Worldwide

One group. Every sport you show. Reasons to come back all year.

A patron watching a one-off game goes home when it ends. A patron who is six points behind the leader on your venue leaderboard is back next match night — whatever's on. Make your venue the destination for all of it, not just one league's season.

Stakes change behavior. A tipping competition running all year creates them.

Year-Round Foot Traffic
Patrons check the leaderboard and come back for every match night, whatever league is on — not just your headline sport's marquee fixtures.
Live on Your Screens, Every Match Night
The Match Wall activates when games go live. Pull it up on any TV or tablet, logged in with a staff account that tipped the match — real-time reactions and live banter running on your screens whenever there's sport on.
Patrons Join by Scanning a QR Code
Print one poster. Put it on the bar, tables, or entrance. Patrons scan, sign up and join. No app download. No staff involvement.

Set up in five minutes. Runs all year.

Name your competition, add every league you show, and set a season prize if you want one — bar tab, trophy, or bragging rights. Done in five minutes.
3

Every group has a unique QR code. Print it and display it at the bar, on tables, or at the entrance. Patrons scan, sign up and join.
4
Let It Run All Year

Everything your venue needs. Nothing extra.

QR Code Entry
Every group gets a unique QR code. Print it, display it at the bar, tables, or entrance — and patrons scan, sign up with Google or Email, and join. No app download. No instructions needed. No tech support from your staff.
Match Wall on Your Screens, Every Match Night
When a game goes live, the Match Wall goes live for every match your patrons tipped. Goals, reactions, and real-time banter from every fan on The Tipoff who called that game — in real time, on any screen you choose. Log in on a tablet or smart TV with a staff account that has tipped the match, and let it run all night.
Zero Admin — Every League, All Season
Tips lock at kickoff. Results settle automatically. The leaderboard updates itself after every match, across every league you show. Your staff manage the bar — the platform manages the competition. Nobody is updating spreadsheets after last call.
Unlimited Regulars
No cap on group size. Whether it is 30 regulars who come every week or 200 people who dip in and out across the season, everyone joins the same group and competes on the same leaderboard. The bigger the group, the better the competition.
Your Regulars Compete Globally
Every patron who tips at your venue also earns a rank on the worldwide leaderboard. Your local regulars are competing privately in your group — but they're also ranking against fans from around the world, in whichever sport they're tipping.
No Betting — Safe for Licensed Venues
The Tipoff is a free-to-play tipping game. No money changes hands through the platform. Patrons compete for fun and for the prize you choose to set. Always check your local regulations for prizes offered, but the platform itself has no gambling mechanics — ever.
Set Your Own Season Prize
Offer a bar tab at season end, a trophy, a free meal, or legendary bragging rights. Set it once when you create your group and it is displayed to every patron all season long. Your call — any prize works.
Weekly Polls — Between Match Nights
Sports run night in, night out across the year — and so do the debates. Weekly opinion polls on the biggest storylines give patrons something to argue about between matches. Put the question on the chalkboard and reveal what the global fan base thinks.
🌍

Local competition. Global rank.

Your regulars compete in your private venue group — but every tip they make also counts on the worldwide leaderboard for that sport. The regular who tops your season table might be one of the best tippers on the planet. That's a story worth putting on the chalkboard.

Common questions from venue operators

Do I need a gambling license to run this at my venue?
No. The Tipoff is a free-to-play tipping game — no money changes hands through the platform. Patrons compete for fun. Always check your local regulations for any prizes you choose to offer separately.
How do patrons join my venue's group?
They scan your unique QR code or enter the group code. No app download required — it works in any mobile browser. Sign up and join in about a minute.
Can I show the leaderboard and Match Wall on my venue TVs?
Yes. The app runs in any browser. Open it on a tablet or any device connected to a screen, and your patrons see it live every match night. The Match Wall for a match shows on an account that has tipped it.
Does one group cover every sport we show?
Yes — one group covers every league The Tipoff supports. Your patrons tip across all of them from the same group and leaderboard, not a separate sign-up per sport.
Is it free for my venue?
Completely free, all year, every league. No setup fee, no subscription, no credit card. Your patrons play for free too.
How many patrons can join?
Unlimited. No cap on group size — 30 regulars or 300 patrons across the season, everyone joins the same group and competes on the same leaderboard.
Do I have to do any tipping myself to run this?
No. Once your account and group are set up, your account is just used to administer the group — your customers do the tipping. You don't need to make any picks yourself.

Ready to make your venue the home of every sport you show?

Every league. Zero admin. Seven days a week of reasons for your regulars to keep coming back.
Give them a competition that runs itself all year — and starts in five minutes. No cost.
