WC 2026 Predictor Challenge — Official Rules

The CalibrSports WC 2026 Predictor Challenge (the “Contest”) is free to enter. No purchase or payment of any kind is necessary to enter or win, and a purchase will not improve your chances of winning. The Contest is a skill-based prediction competition; it is not a wager, and no bet is required to participate or to win.

The Contest is operated by CalibrSports (the “Sponsor”). Questions about the Contest may be sent to support@calibrsports.com.

The Contest is open to registered CalibrSports account holders who are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in their place of residence, whichever is greater) at the time of entry, and only where permitted by law.

Employees, contractors, officers, and affiliates of the Sponsor, and members of their immediate family or household, are not eligible to win prizes. The Contest is void where prohibited or restricted by law. It is each entrant’s responsibility to ensure that participation is lawful in their jurisdiction.

Entries may be created and edited until the tournament kicks off on June 11, 2026 at 16:00 UTC (the “Lock Time”). The bracket locks progressively: quarter-final picks lock at the Lock Time, and each later round (semi-finals, final, champion, Golden Boot) remains editable until that round begins. No new entries are accepted after the Lock Time.

Create a free CalibrSports account and submit your bracket at calibrsports.com/wc/predictor-challenge/play: choose your 8 quarter-finalists, 4 semi-finalists, 2 finalists, the champion, and the Golden Boot top scorer. One entry (one bracket) per person. Multiple accounts, automated entries, or any attempt to manipulate the Contest will be disqualified.

Points are awarded for each correct prediction:

• Each correct quarter-finalist: +3 (×8)
• Each correct semi-finalist: +5 (×4)
• Each correct finalist: +7 (×2)
• Correct champion: +15
• Correct Golden Boot winner: +10

The maximum score is 83. The 10 entrants with the highest total points at the conclusion of the tournament (July 19, 2026) are the winners. Ties are broken in favour of the bracket that was submitted earliest.

The 10 highest-ranked eligible entrants win cash plus a CalibrSports Pro subscription:

Total cash pool: USD $1,000, paid in USDT (Tether, a US-dollar-pegged stablecoin) at 1:1 USD value. Approximate total retail value of all prizes: ~$1,450 (cash plus roughly 18 months of Pro across the 10 winners). Prizes are non-transferable and there is no cash alternative to the Pro portion.

Winners are notified by email at the address on their CalibrSports account within 7 days of the tournament’s final settlement. To claim a cash prize, a winner must reply to confirm their identity and provide a valid USDT wallet address (and network) over email.

Cash prizes are transferred manually by the Sponsor in USDT to the wallet address the winner provides. The winner is solely responsible for supplying a correct wallet address and network; the Sponsor is not responsible for funds sent to an incorrect address provided by the winner. The Pro subscription is applied directly to the winner’s account.

If a winner cannot be reached, does not respond within 14 days of notification, provides an invalid wallet, or is found ineligible, the prize may be forfeited and awarded to the next highest-ranked eligible entrant.

Winners are solely responsible for any and all taxes, levies, or charges arising from their prizes, and for any reporting required in their jurisdiction.

The Sponsor may verify any entrant’s identity and eligibility and may disqualify any entry that violates these rules, uses multiple or fraudulent accounts, or attempts to manipulate the Contest or the leaderboard. The Sponsor’s decisions on all matters relating to the Contest are final.

This is a free, skill-based prediction contest — not a bet, and no wager is required. CalibrSports provides analytical tools and probability estimates, not financial advice. If you also bet on football, bet only what you can afford to lose and never chase losses. 18+.

Entrants are identified by their username or display name on the public leaderboard. By entering, winners agree that their username/display name and rank may be shown in the public leaderboard and in winner announcements.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Sponsor is not liable for any loss or damage arising from participation in the Contest or from the acceptance, use, or misuse of any prize. The Contest and all related services are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. The Sponsor may suspend, modify, or cancel the Contest if it cannot be run as planned (for example, due to tampering, technical failure, or events beyond its control).

Personal information collected in connection with the Contest is handled in accordance with the CalibrSports Privacy Policy.

These Rules, and any dispute arising out of or relating to the Contest, are governed by the laws applicable at the Sponsor’s principal place of business, without regard to conflict-of-laws provisions. By entering, you agree that any such dispute will be resolved on an individual basis in that venue.
