House rules
Short version: it is a free game, the currency is points, and nothing here is worth money.
Free to play.
Bleachers is free to play. All bets use Points, a play currency. There is no deposit, no buy-in, and no way to put real money on a game.
What the league fee buys.
Starting your own league with friends costs a one-time $5. It unlocks the league features: your own board, weekly head to head, and a schedule. It does not buy Points, it does not improve your odds, and it never goes into a prize. Playing in someone else's league is free.
Points are not money.
Points can't be bought, sold, traded, or cashed out, and have no value outside the game.
What you can play.
Bet spreads, totals, moneylines, player props, and parlays on real lines. Bets on a game close at kickoff and settle on the official final result.
Winning the season.
Most points when the season ends takes the season title.
