Points are awarded automatically by our system when a match reaches full time:

- 1 point โ correct result (correct winner or draw, but wrong exact score).
- 0 points โ incorrect result.

Prize Pool & Payouts
A portion of all entry fees forms the tournament prize pool. The platform retains a fee (default 20%) to cover operational costs. The remaining pool is distributed among the top-ranked players at the end of the tournament.
