Have you heard of a fantasy sports game that doesn’t want your money but would like to give you some?
Canadian digital sports media company theScore has launched a new fantasy sports app, QuickDraft, which offers daily contests with real cash prizes but zero entry fees.
Meaning, this free-to-play game could survive the legal scrutiny that the fantasy sports is facing in Canada and the U.S. because players will not put their own money at risk even cash prizes are offered.
QuickDraft, a mobile-first game, allows users to draft line-ups of five athletes and compete for cash prizes of $100 to $1,000 for the daily winners. The app will first focus on NFL games with other major leagues coming soon. Entries are also limited to one per contest and the use of scripts (computer algorithms that allow participants to automate line-up edits) is prohibited.
