A patron watching a one-off match goes home when it ends. A patron who is six points behind the leader on your venue leaderboard is back next round — and the one after that. Footy tipping is already part of the culture; The Tipoff gives your venue the modern, zero-admin version of it, running from wherever the season is now through to the Grand Final in October.
Stakes change behaviour. A tipping competition running all season creates them.
Your regulars compete in your private venue group — but every tip they make also counts on the worldwide leaderboard. The regular who tops your season table might be one of the best NRL tippers on the planet. That's a story worth putting on the chalkboard.

“We've always had the footy on the big screens for finals, but attendance dropped off during the rounds in between. Putting the QR code on the bar for The Tipoff gave regulars a reason to check in every week even when their own team was on a bye. The leaderboard gets more chat than some of the actual games now.”
27 rounds. 17 clubs. A whole season of reasons for your regulars to keep coming back.
Give them a competition that runs itself through to the Grand Final — and starts in five minutes. No admin. No spreadsheets. No cost.
2026 season runs through the Grand Final on 4 October. Set up now and jump in anytime.
