Terms of service
The agreement between you and Split the Win LLC when you use Split the Win.
Last updated October 8, 2026.
These terms include an agreement to resolve disputes by individual arbitration, and a waiver of class actions and jury trials (section 15). You can opt out within 30 days.
1. Agreeing to these terms
By creating an account or using Split the Win, you agree to these terms, to the Official Rules (which govern the weekly contest and drawing), and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, don't use the site.
2. Who can play
You must be at least 18 (or the age of majority where you live, if higher) and a legal resident of the United States. One account per person. The information you give us must be accurate.
3. Your account
Keep your password to yourself; you're responsible for what happens on your account. Tell us at support@splitthewin.com if you think someone else has used it. You can delete your account at any time from your account page.
4. Points
Split the Win is a free game. Points are free, can't be bought, sold, transferred or exchanged for cash or anything else, and have no cash value. Everyone's points are reset each week. We may correct points that were credited by mistake. Split the Win is not gambling: nobody pays to play, and nothing you can buy improves your chances of winning a prize.
5. Picks and results
Picks are final once made. Pots are settled from official results reported by our sports data provider. If a game is postponed or canceled, or a result can't be settled, we may void the pot and refund every pick in it. If we make a mistake settling a pot, we may correct it.
6. Prizes
Prizes are offered only as described in the Official Rules, which control if they differ from these terms.
7. Fair play
Don't use more than one account, bots, scripts or other automated tools; don't try to break, overload or get around the site's security; don't copy or scrape the site; and don't harass other players or use offensive usernames. We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms, and disqualify them from prizes.
8. Notifications and email
We email you about your account and prizes. Push notifications are optional, and you can turn them off at any time on your account page or in your browser's settings.
9. Our site and content
The site, its design, logo and content belong to Split the Win LLC. Team and league names are used only to identify real games; Split the Win isn't affiliated with or endorsed by any league or team. Links to sponsors and other sites are provided for convenience; we're not responsible for them.
10. Changes and closing
We may change or stop any part of the site, and update these terms. For important changes, we'll tell you on the site or by email before they take effect. Continuing to play after that means you accept them; for some changes we'll ask you to agree before you make more picks. Changes to section 15 work as that section says.
11. No warranties
The site is provided "as is" and "as available". We don't promise it will always be available, error-free, or that game data will always be accurate or on time.
12. Limits on liability
To the extent the law allows, Split the Win LLC isn't liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the site, and our total liability to you is limited to $100. For the contest and drawing, the Official Rules' limits apply instead. Some states don't allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.
13. Covering our costs
If someone else makes a claim against Split the Win LLC because you broke these terms or the law, or misused the site, you agree to cover our reasonable costs of that claim, including lawyers' fees, to the extent the law allows.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Illinois, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs section 15. If any part of these terms can't be enforced, the rest still applies. We may transfer these terms, with all our rights and duties under them, to anyone who takes over running Split the Win (such as our own company). Questions or problems: support@splitthewin.com.
15. Disputes: individual arbitration, no class actions
Please read this section carefully. It means that a dispute between you and us is decided by a neutral arbitrator, one person at a time, and not by a judge or jury or in a class action, unless you opt out (below). It's the same in the Terms of Service and the Official Rules. In this section, "we" and "us" means Split the Win LLC and anyone who runs Split the Win now or later, with their owners, officers, employees and agents, and also the prize sponsors for a dispute about a prize.
Talk to us first. If you have a dispute with us, email support@splitthewin.com (or write to 2501 Chatham Rd, Suite N, Springfield, IL 62704) with your name, your username or the email address you entered with, what happened, and what you'd like us to do. We'll do the same at the email address you gave us if we have a dispute with you. We'll both try in good faith to resolve it, and neither of us will start an arbitration or a lawsuit until 60 days after that notice. Any deadline for bringing the claim is paused during those 60 days.
Individual arbitration. If it isn't resolved, any dispute between you and us that arises out of or relates to Split the Win, the Terms of Service, the Official Rules, the weekly contest, the weekly drawing or any prize will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, not in court. The one exception: either of us may instead bring an individual claim in small claims court, as long as it qualifies there and stays there. The arbitration will be run by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules and fee schedules (available at adr.org), before a single neutral arbitrator. Under those rules, we pay most of the arbitration's costs. Hearings are by video or phone, or in person in the county where you live if you prefer, and a small claim can be decided on written submissions alone. If the AAA can't or won't run the arbitration, we'll agree on another arbitration provider, and if we can't agree, a court will appoint one. The arbitrator may award you the same damages and other individual relief that a court could award you in the same case, applying the Terms of Service and the Official Rules just as a court would, including any remedy the law doesn't allow to be waived, such as lawyers' fees a statute provides. The arbitrator decides every question about the dispute, including whether it falls under this section and whether this section can be enforced, except that a court decides whether you agreed to this section or opted out of it, and whether the class action waiver or the public injunctive relief paragraph below can be enforced. The arbitrator's decision is final, and any court with jurisdiction may enter it as a judgment. This agreement to arbitrate is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
No class actions. You and we may bring claims against each other only individually, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated or representative proceeding. An arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any class or representative proceeding, and may award relief only to the person who asked for it, and only as much as that person's own claim requires.
Public injunctive relief. If a claim asks for public injunctive relief (an order whose main purpose is to benefit the general public) and a court decides that the law entitles you to ask for it, that request will be decided by a court, after the arbitration of everything else in the dispute is finished, and it's paused until then.
Many claims at once. If 25 or more similar demands for arbitration are filed against us, or by us, by the same or coordinated lawyers or organizations, the AAA's rules and fee schedules for mass or multiple case filings apply. Each claim is still decided individually, on its own facts.
Opting out. You can opt out of arbitration within 30 days after you first agree to these terms (or, if you agreed to these terms before this section was added on October 4, 2026, within 30 days after you agree to this section) by emailing support@splitthewin.com, or writing to 2501 Chatham Rd, Suite N, Springfield, IL 62704, with your name, your username or the email address you entered with, and a statement that you opt out of arbitration. One opt-out covers both the Terms of Service and the Official Rules, and it doesn't change anything else in them.
In court. If you opt out, or a dispute isn't decided in arbitration for any reason, it will be decided only in the state or federal courts located in Illinois (or in small claims court where you live), and you and we agree to their jurisdiction. To the extent the law allows, the class action waiver still applies there, and you and we each give up the right to a trial by jury.
Which disputes, and future changes. This section applies to every dispute it covers, including one that arose before you agreed to it, except a lawsuit or arbitration already started by then. It keeps applying after an account is closed or deleted. If we change this section later, the change won't apply to a dispute either of us has already given notice of, and you can reject the change by emailing support@splitthewin.com within 30 days after it takes effect, in which case this version keeps applying to you.
If part of this section can't be enforced. If a court decides that the class action waiver can't be enforced for a claim, that claim (and only that claim) will be decided in court instead of in arbitration, and it may never be arbitrated on a class basis. If any other part of this section can't be enforced, that part is removed and the rest still applies.
