Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 2026-10-03 · Version 2026-10 · English only (initial version)
1. Who we are
Tipmaster (the “Service”) — the Tipmaster football prediction game at tipmaster.net — is operated by The Flywheel Corporation (“we”, “us”, “our”). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms.
2. The Service
Tipmaster is a free game in which you predict the outcomes of real football matches and compete with other players in public and private leagues. We may add, change, or remove features at any time. Optional paid features may be offered in the future (section 10); playing and competing never requires a purchase.
3. Your account
You must be at least 16 years old to create an account. You are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for activity under your account. Provide accurate information and keep your display name appropriate; we may suspend accounts that abuse the Service or other players.
4. Acceptable use
Don't cheat, automate, scrape, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, and don't use it for anything unlawful.
5. Your predictions & data
The predictions, gameplay and related data you generate while using the Service are used by The Flywheel Corporation to run the game and to improve it: for analytics, research, product development and the training of models that support the Service. We do this on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating and developing the Service (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)), using the data in anonymized form (stripped of information that directly identifies you) or pseudonymized form (associated with pseudonymous identifiers and broad attributes rather than your real-world identity). You may object to the use of your pseudonymized data for model training and research at any time in your account settings or by contacting us; your predictions then remain in the game but leave those uses. We will not sell data that directly identifies you. Only aggregated, anonymized insights derived from the Service may be shared with or commercialized by The Flywheel Corporation and its partners.
Crowd consensus. We publish the combined predictions of our players for each match as anonymous statistics, including before kick-off: for example, what share of players expect a home win, a draw or an away win, and the most common exact scores. These statistics never identify you, are only published for all players of a match combined (never by league, group or other small segment), and are never shown until at least 20 players have predicted a match. We make them available to the public, to partners, and to third-party software including AI systems, free of charge or for a fee, on tipmaster.net and on third-party platforms. The statistics are our database; third-party use is governed by our API terms. They describe player opinion and are not betting advice. Objecting (see above) excludes your future predictions from these statistics; predictions already counted cannot be removed from published figures. Classic tipping already shows the running distribution to members before the deadline; the public statistics show the same figures.
6. Privacy
We store the personal data needed to run the Service (such as your email address and profile). How we handle personal data, the legal bases we rely on, your rights and how to exercise them are described in our Privacy Policy. Accepting these Terms is not a consent to any data use; where a use needs your consent, we ask for it separately.
7. No warranty & liability
The Service is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind. To the extent permitted by law, The Flywheel Corporation is not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the Service.
8. Changes
We may update these Terms. We will notify you of material changes in-app or by email at least 30 days before they take effect, and you may object to them within that period; if you object, you may end your account and the previous Terms apply until it ends. If you do not object and continue to use the Service after the effective date, the revised Terms apply.
9. Game money, prizes & virtual items
The Service shows club budgets, salaries, TV money, prize money, bonuses and similar amounts (“Game Money”). Game Money is marked with the TM coin symbol and may be displayed in a currency format for entertainment. Game Money is play money. It has no monetary value, is not money, electronic money, a voucher, a deposit or a security, and cannot be withdrawn, paid out, exchanged for cash or goods, transferred between players, or claimed from The Flywheel Corporation in any form. Any “prize money”, “salary” or “bonus” exists only inside the game. Game Money cannot be bought or sold for real money. Tipmaster is a free game of prediction, not gambling or betting: you stake nothing and cannot win money from us. If your account ends, Game Money and free virtual items lapse without compensation.
Game Money and virtual items (such as badges, cover credits, co-coach contracts or club cosmetics) are a limited, personal, revocable and non-transferable licence to use a feature of the Service. You do not own them. For free Game Money and free virtual items, we may change, rebalance, reset, cap or remove them and their income rules at any time, including to correct errors, fix abuse or change the game, without compensation. Paid items are changed only for a valid reason (game balance, abuse, security, legal or technical requirements), at no extra cost and with notice; if a change materially impairs a paid item, you may end that purchase within 30 days and receive a pro-rata refund. Where a sponsor offers a real prize for a league, the sponsor's own terms apply and the sponsor, not The Flywheel Corporation, is the promoter unless we state otherwise.
10. Purchases (when offered)
We may offer some features for real money in the future. Purchases are optional and are never required to play or to compete. The price in real currency is shown before you pay. Purchases are available only to persons aged 18 or over. If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA or UK, you have a 14-day right of withdrawal (see our withdrawal information and model form). For single digital items, the right ends when delivery starts if you expressly asked us to start before the withdrawal period ends and acknowledged that you lose the right; we confirm this in your order email. For subscriptions, if you asked us to start early and then withdraw, you pay for the part already provided. Beyond that, refunds are given only where the law requires them. After any initial term, subscriptions continue until cancelled, and you can cancel at any time with one month's notice, including via the cancellation button in your account. We announce price changes in advance, and you can cancel before they take effect. Taking part in any league with a real prize never requires a purchase, and purchases never improve your chances of winning one. We may suspend paid items while a payment is disputed or charged back. If we end your account without cause, we refund any prepaid unused period. A purchase does not change the nature of Game Money described in section 9, does not give you an advantage in results, and creates no claim to any value outside the Service. Purchases on the web are processed by our payment partner under its terms; purchases inside an app store are also subject to that store's terms. Prices shown include VAT.
11. Governing entity, law & contact
These Terms are entered into with The Flywheel Corporation, Seychelles IBC No. 238226. These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Seychelles. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence, and you may bring claims in its courts. Questions about these Terms or your data can be directed to The Flywheel Corporation at [email protected].
