The full rules
Here's exactly how points work, how the leaderboard ranks you, and what's up for grabs.
1 · Earn points on every match
Predict the final score of each match before it kicks off. Points are awarded automatically once the result comes in.
| Exact score correct You nailed the final score, e.g. you said 2–1 and it finished 2–1. |
200 pts |
| Correct result Right winner (or a draw), but not the exact score. |
100 pts |
| Goal-difference bonus Added to a correct result when you also got the margin right (e.g. you said 2–1, it finished 3–2). |
+2 pts |
| Wrong prediction | 0 pts |
2 · Knockout rounds are worth more
Round of 32 through the Final. Knockout match points are multiplied, and you also pick which team advances.
| Knockout multiplier All match points above are multiplied in knockout rounds. |
× 1.5 |
| Exact score in a knockout match | 300 pts |
| Correct result in a knockout match | 150 pts |
| Correct team advances Pick who goes through (handles draws decided on penalties). |
+6 pts |
3 · The group stage runs in three rounds
In the group stage every team plays three matches — one in each round. A round only finishes once every team has played, then the next round kicks off. Each round is its own competition with its own prizes.
| Round 1 Every team's first match |
11–17 Jun |
| Round 2 Every team's second match |
18–23 Jun |
| Round 3 Every team's final group match |
24–27 Jun |
4 · Climb the leaderboard
There's a leaderboard for every round and stage of the tournament — the three group rounds, each knockout round, plus the Overall Champion board for the whole World Cup. Players are ranked by:
- Total points earned in that round / stage
- then most exact-score hits
- then most correct results
- then most correct knockout-advance calls
- then best accuracy (points per prediction)
The higher you finish, the bigger the prize.
🏆 How the Overall Champion is decided
The Overall Champion is your cumulative score across the whole tournament — every knockout match and Group Rounds 2 and 3.
Group Round 1 does not count toward the Champion title. Round 1 still has its own prizes, and every point you earn there is still yours to redeem for dining rewards — it just doesn't factor into the Champion race. So a slow start in the opening round never knocks you out of the title hunt.

6 · How ties are settled
If players are genuinely level on every measure above, they share the rank, and the prize is handled fairly:
- One winner is chosen by a public, provably-fair random draw from a seed published in advance — nobody can rig it.
7 · Turn points into dining rewards
Spend your points for a discount at Jaalakam: 10 points = ₹1.
Minimum 100 points to redeem. Each redemption creates a single-use QR code that's validated at the restaurant. Redeeming spends your balance but never lowers your leaderboard rank — that's based on total points earned.
⏳ Predictions lock 1 hour before kickoff and can be edited any time before then. Results are synced automatically from openfootball.
