Let’s be clear this is not a skill based contest at all. Skill based gaming means the player’s direct performance determines the outcome (like chess, esports, accuracy-based games, etc)But your platform’s outcomes depend 100% on external sports events that players cannot control injuries, coaching, officiating, weather, randomness. That is the legal definition of gambling wagering on sports outcomes using published odds and lines.You keep repeating “skill” but the only “skill” you reference is avoiding account drawdown, which has nothing to do with the sports outcome itself. That’s just bankroll management a gambling term not a performance based contest.Let’s break it down:✔ You publish sports lines and odds✔ Users pay an entry fee to participate✔ Prize results depend on real sports outcomes✔ Players risk losing their stake (entry fee)✔ You operate across multiple U.S. states❌ No public gambling license anywhereThat is a sportsbook business model.Calling it a “contest” does not change what it functionally is.Your excuse that “funds are handled by licensed processors” means nothing processors aren’t gambling regulators. Almost every illegal online gambling site uses Stripe or PayPal. That’s not compliance that’s processing payments.Also, fantasy sports are carved out under very specific laws requiring contest outcomes driven predominantly by skill and lineups, not straight betting on sportsbook odds. You don’t meet that standard at all.Your whole platform is smoke and mirrors: • Fake money accounts before you’re allowed real payouts • No transparency on licensing or legal jurisdiction • Marketing that disguises wagering as “education”If a player files a dispute or state regulator reviews this, your “skill” argument collapses instantly.Anyone reading this:Just look up your state’s gambling laws it’s very easy to see what’s going on here. If a company lets you bet on sports outcomes for money, it’s gambling. If they aren’t licensed, it’s unregulated gambling.Period.
