Questions

Frequently
asked.

Is the World Cup sweepstake really free?
Yes, completely. No entry fees, no in-app purchases required. SquadGames is ad-supported. Running a World Cup sweep costs nothing.
How many people can join my World Cup sweep?
Up to 48 — one per team. For smaller groups, the app assigns multiple teams per person so everyone has several teams to follow across the tournament.
Do my friends need to download the app?
No. You can share a join link that works in any browser. The app enhances the experience but people can enter without downloading anything.
When does the World Cup 2026 start?
The FIFA World Cup 2026 kicks off on June 11, 2026 and runs until July 19, 2026. Hosted across the United States, Canada and Mexico — the first World Cup with 48 teams and 104 matches.
Is it legal to run a sweepstake at work?
Because SquadGames is completely free with no money changing hands, it doesn't fall under gambling regulations. No prizes, no entry fees — just bragging rights. Always worth checking your employer's policies, but a free sweep is generally fine.
When should I set up my sweep?
You can set one up now and invite your group. We'd suggest doing the draw at least a week before June 11 so everyone has time to get excited about their team.
