How to Play

Welcome to SideAction — the first-ever friend-to-friend betting app.

To get started, invite your friends so you always have someone to challenge (Go to your Profile to add friends). Create a "Club" for private group bets!

Every bet created in SideAction must be accepted by at least one other user, which ensures both sides agree the matchup & odds are fair.

You can create standard bets, parlays, and side bets for anything you can think of - Golf, rec sports, work, video games, group parties, and everything in between!

Rules & Regulations

SideAction is built on good faith, fair play, and honest competition. To keep things fun and prevent cheating, all users must follow these guidelines.

1. Play With Integrity

SideAction works because everyone plays fair. No cheap bets, no guaranteed outcomes, no loophole hunting. Create real bets, agree on real odds, and compete honestly.

2. Bet Creation

• Every bet must be clear and measurable.
• Odds and terms must be agreed on by two users before going live.
• Once approved, anyone in the group can place their wager using Credits.
• Minimum bet: 10 credits. Maximum bet: 500 credits.
• Unsettled bets will automatically expire after 30 days with full refunds.

3. Odds Limits

To prevent unrealistic or exploitable bets:

This option allows you to make a bet directly with a friend using your own credits as the "house". Both parties must approve the bet before it goes live. The system automatically handles all credit movement based on the bet outcome.

6. Anti-Cheating

The following are not allowed:

• Pre-arranged or "gimme" outcomes
• Inflated or manipulated odds
• Collusion to farm Credits
• Exploiting bugs or loopholes

Violations may result in bet removal or account restrictions.
