Kickoff Picks is a soccer pick'em game you play with your own friend group. Everyone predicts the exact score of each match before kickoff, picks lock automatically when the whistle blows, and points land on a private leaderboard as results settle. There is no money involved — just bragging rights in the group chat.
The app is built for matchday reality. Fixtures are cached on your iPhone so the lineup loads instantly on patchy stadium or pub wifi, and picks you enter offline are kept safe. Scoring is deterministic and transparent: every point is computed from the settled result with a per-match breakdown, so there are no disputes about who really called it.
Leagues are private and easy to fill. Friends join by share link, short code, or QR — three redundant paths so nobody gets stuck at the door. After the matchweek, a shareable results card shows who called it and who bottled it.
Predict the full-time score for every fixture in the matchweek. Nail the exact score and bank double points; a correct result still scores.
Every pick locks at kickoff time with a visible countdown, so nobody can sneak in a late change. The deadline is the same for everyone.
Create a league and invite your crew by share link, short code, or QR. Your league, your rules, no strangers.
Points are computed from the settled result with a per-match breakdown you can inspect. No mystery totals, no wrong-points disputes.
Fixtures are cached on-device and picks save offline, so the app still works in the five minutes before kickoff at the stadium or pub.
When results settle, post a results card to the group chat showing who called it and who bottled it.
Create a private league and invite friends with a share link, a short code, or a QR code.
Enter an exact score for each fixture in the matchweek before the deadline.
When the first whistle blows, everyone's picks lock. The countdown makes the deadline obvious.
As results come in, points are scored automatically and the leaderboard updates. Share the results card with the group.
Yes. Kickoff Picks lets a friend group predict exact scores for each match in a private league. Everyone submits picks before kickoff, picks lock automatically, and a leaderboard settles the argument once results are in. It is a social game between friends, not a tipster service.
One person creates a league and shares an invite link, code, or QR with the group. Each matchweek, everyone predicts exact scores for the fixtures before they start. Points are awarded based on how close each prediction was — exact score earns the most — and the running leaderboard shows who is on top across the season.
No. Kickoff Picks involves no real money, no odds, no wagers, and no bookmaker links. It is a score-prediction game played for points and bragging rights within a private friend group. Nothing in the app references betting or staking.
A pick'em is a game where players predict match outcomes or exact scores before the games are played, then compare results on a leaderboard. It is a long-running tradition among groups of football fans. Kickoff Picks is a pick'em built specifically for private friend groups on iPhone.
Kickoff Picks uses a transparent points system: predicting the exact score earns the top award, getting the correct result (win, draw, or loss) earns a smaller number, and a miss earns nothing. Every match shows a per-pick breakdown, so you can see exactly where each player's points came from.
Yes. Kickoff Picks works for any competition with scheduled fixtures — league seasons and tournaments alike. Create a private league at the start, and the fixtures feed keeps each matchweek's games ready for picks.
Three ways: a share link you send in the group chat, a short code they type in, or a QR code they scan from your phone. Having all three means nobody is locked out because one method fails on their device.
No. Picks hard-lock at kickoff time, and the app shows a countdown so the deadline is never a surprise. That keeps the game fair — everyone predicts with the same information.
Kickoff Picks is built for exactly that moment. Fixtures are cached on your iPhone so the matchweek loads instantly, and picks you enter with weak or no signal are stored locally and synced when the connection returns.
Both earn the same points — the scoring is deterministic, so identical picks always score identically. Ties on the leaderboard are simply shared positions; the next matchweek is the tiebreaker that matters.
No. The app never generates predictions, tips, or accuracy claims. You and your friends make the predictions; the app's job is to lock them fairly, score them correctly, and keep the leaderboard honest.
Yes. Once picks lock, everyone's predictions become visible, and after results settle you get a per-match breakdown plus a shareable results card showing who called it and who bottled it.
Start a private prediction league and settle who really knows football.
