Frequently asked questions
- How does World Cup sweepstake scoring work?
- Each person scores points from their drawn teams using classic football rules: 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw, and 0 for a loss. Group stage and knockout matches count. Points are added together to rank participants on the live leaderboard.
- How do I open my sweepstake standings page?
- Run your draw on the World Cup 2026 sweepstake generator, then click “View my standings”. The page uses the same draw link state, so you can bookmark it and return throughout the tournament without signing in.
- Where do match results come from?
- Scores are fetched from football-data.org when configured, with a cached refresh roughly every fifteen minutes. A local results file is used as a fallback if the API is unavailable.
- What is the wooden spoon?
- The wooden spoon is a light-hearted name for whoever sits at the bottom of your sweepstake table — the participant with the fewest combined points from their teams.
