When Can I Play?
- Playoff offerings on Splash will be available on December 31st, 2023 ahead of the NFL Playoffs.
- The playoffs begin on January 13th, 2024, and you'll be able to play on Splash all the way up through the Big Game!
NFL Tiers
- Our NFL Tiers game is back for the Playoffs, with more ways to play and win. We'll be offering the following formats:
- Single Game Tiers: Pick one game and draft your squad! For those lucky fans whose teams will make the playoffs, this is a great format to follow them and compete as they make a run for the title.
- Single Day Tiers: Select a day in the Playoffs and draft based on who is playing that day, from the Wild Card Round all the way up until the Big Game.
- Single Round Tiers: Pick a round, any round! In this format, you'll have the option of drafting players available from a specific round of the playoffs.
- Multi-Round with Player Use Limit: New to Splash is Player Use Limits which operates similarly to Survivor. In this format, you'll compete in a multi-round contest in the Playoffs and draft accordingly, but once you use a player, you lose them.
NFL Pick X
- The same NFL Pick X format you've played all season is back for the Playoffs, with some additional twists. Here's what we'll have:
- Multi-Round Pick X: Pick your winners all playoffs long in our traditional Pick X format!
- Multi-Round Pick X with Weighted Scoring: Introduced in our College Bowl Pick X format, Weighted Scoring is coming for the NFL Playoffs. Commissioners will be able to assign different point values for different rounds of the playoffs, adding an extra layer of strategy for your picks.
- Multi Round Pick X with Best Pick: Got a gut feeling about a playoff matchup? This format is for you. Commissioners can opt for a Best Pick in this multi-round Pick X format, which allows players to select a game that will be worth more points than usual if they are correct.
NFL One & Done
- One & Done is live for both NFL Playoffs and for golf season! Here's how it works:
- First, you'll determine the amount of players you select per slate. All players will be placed into one tier, and your commissioner will determine whether you pick 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 players from that one tier.
- Commissioners then select the rounds of the playoffs they'd like the contest to run for. You can run single-round contests, or contests that run from Wild Card Weekend all the way through the Big Game.
- Our new Player Use Limit determines how many times per contest you can select a player in your lineup. If the limit is one, once you use a player, you lose them!
- Scoring is the same as our regular-season NFL Tiers format. Rack up fantasy points and climb the leaderboard to win cash!
How Splash Saves You Time

How do I earn rewards on Splash?
All of our RunYourPool and OfficeFootballPool commissioners big and small will get rewarded for each user they bring to Splash, and can continue to earn as they run contests and grow their brand. Commissioners who run over three qualifying contests will have the opportunity to join our Commissioner Rewards program where they can make being a commissioner into a nice side hustle or even a full-time living.
Alright, so how does Splash make money?
Splash is laser-focused on doing everything we can to make a commissioner's life easy and a member's life fun. And we've done that. We've made contests so simple and enjoyable that many of our commissioners go on to run 2x bigger contests for 10x less work. But we can't make and maintain that magic alone, and that means we can't do it for free. We take a service fee as a percentage of the collected contest entry fees and put it right back into the day-to-day stuff like payment processing fees; top-notch security; and building the best product on the market.
How do I deposit and withdraw?
It’s simple and safe to deposit and withdraw on Splash. We support debit card and credit card deposits from Visa, Mastercard, and Discover. We also accept deposits via ACH, PayPal and Venmo.
After you create and verify your account, you will be able to deposit and withdraw via the My Account page.You may withdraw funds to a payment method you have used to deposit with (debit card or ACH), though we are unable to process withdrawals to credit cards.
How do I convince my group to make the switch?
Glad you asked! We whipped up a one-pager to make it easy for you to explain to your friends or group, which you can find here.
The bottom line is Splash makes your job as a commissioner at least 10x easier. This should let you run more contests and make the ones you currently run bigger. The improved gameplay, live scoring, and mobile app will make everyone’s experience much better. Not to mention that players can link their existing RunYourPool or OfficeFootballPool account to Splash to get signed up in less than a minute. And finally, Splash should give your players confidence that no matter how well they know the commissioner, they will get paid when they win, quickly and securely.
How do I move my existing contest over?
If you have an existing contest on RYP or OFP, just link your account during signup and you’ll be able to invite your existing member groups in just a few clicks. Between creating your contest and inviting your group, the whole process will take 90 seconds or less.
If you are moving your contest over from another website or from a spreadsheet, we make it easy for you to replicate your contest and give you an invite link to send out to your email list or text chain.
Why am I asked for my license information?
In order to make the platform a safe place for users to play against their friends using real money, we need either passport or license information in order to verify your information. This verification process is an important step for us to keep Splash safe and fun for all our users.
Splash is the leading sports gaming platform built for friends and groups to safely compete for real money.
