In plain English
Three completely separate things you can win in this game:
- Game points — how you climb the leaderboard. +3 for a correct result, +8 for an exact score, +25 for picking the title winner. No money attached to game points.
- Site credit — pennies (5p per correct result, 15p per exact score) accrued as a hotcomps.com coupon. It is not £1 or £100 per prediction, it is measured in single-digit pence per match. See §6.
- Cash prizes — two set-piece cash prizes running alongside the season: £1,000 for a Perfect Gameweek (every exact score in one week), and £50 for topping the monthly points race. See §9 for the full rules and eligibility.
The rest of this page is the formal T&Cs.
1. Promoter
This free-to-enter promotional prediction game ("the Game") is operated by Hot Comps Ltd, registered in England and Wales.
2. Duration
The Game runs throughout the 26/27 top-flight football season. Exact start and end dates are published on the site at football.hotcomps.com.
3. Eligibility
- Open to UK residents aged 18 or over.
- One account per person. Multiple accounts will be voided.
- Employees of Hot Comps Ltd and their immediate families are excluded.
4. How to Enter
Entry is free. No purchase is necessary. Register at football.hotcomps.com with a valid email address and predict the result and score of each match before the scheduled kickoff time.
5. Scoring (game points)
These points are for leaderboard ranking only. They are not money and are not paid out.
- +3 points for correctly predicting the match result (Home Win, Draw, or Away Win).
- +5 bonus points for predicting the exact score (8 points total for an exact score).
- +25 points for correctly picking the title winner at the end of the season.
6. Site Credit (accrual)
Note: site credit is measured in pence. It is not a per-match cash prize.
- 5p (five pence, £0.05) per correctly predicted match result.
- +10p bonus per exact score prediction (15p total per exact-score match).
- There is no lifetime earning cap. Credit accrues for every eligible prediction across the season. It is redeemable at hotcomps.com per §7. It is not paid as cash and is not a per-match prize.
7. Redemption
- Any positive credit balance can be redeemed as a single-use discount coupon for hotcomps.com.
- Coupons are email-restricted, non-transferable, expire 90 days from issue, and require a minimum order of £5.00 on hotcomps.com.
- Coupons cannot be combined with other promotions.
8. Auto-Cashout
At the end of each gameweek and at the end of the season, any positive credit balance is automatically issued as a coupon and saved to your wallet on this site. No balance is forfeited.
9. Cash Prizes
These are the real cash prizes. Separate from game points (§5) and site credit (§6).
Two cash prizes run alongside the 26/27 Premier League season:
- £1,000 Perfect Gameweek— awarded to any eligible player who correctly predicts the exact score of every match in a single Premier League gameweek. Where more than one player achieves a Perfect Gameweek in the same gameweek, the prize is split equally between them. Predictions must be locked in before each match's kick-off; scoring is based on 90-minute results (extra time and penalties are excluded). A gameweek is only prize-eligible if at least eight scheduled Premier League matches complete and settle; weeks with fewer completed matches (e.g. due to weather cancellations or fixture congestion) do not award the Perfect Gameweek prize and no rollover applies.
- £50 Monthly Race — awarded on the first day of each calendar month to the eligible player with the most total points earned during the previous UTC calendar month. Tie-break: whoever reached the tied total earliest wins.
To be prize-eligible, a player's account must be at least 14 days old at the point the prize is settled, have five or more settled predictions, be in good standing (no active eligibility flags — see §10a Fair Play), and not have been marked as deleted.
Prizes are paid as GBP by bank transfer or a comparable electronic method, at the Promoter's discretion, within 30 days of the prize being settled. Winners will be contacted at their registered email; a valid response with payout details is required within 60 days or the prize is forfeited. Prizes are non-transferable, have no cash-alternative equivalent, and are subject to any applicable taxes in the winner's jurisdiction. The Promoter reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal or greater value where the advertised prize becomes unavailable.
10. Voided Matches
If a match is postponed, cancelled, or voided, all predictions for that match are reversed. Points and credit are restored via reversal ledger entries.
10a. Fair Play
Hot Comps runs cash prizes on real predictions from real accounts. We use automated and manual checks to detect multi-accounting, self-referral, disposable emails, and other abuse. Where we find abuse, the offending accounts will be excluded from all prizes at our discretion, past and future, without notice or refund of any credit balance. Prizes will only be awarded to accounts that have played fairly and meet basic eligibility criteria (account age, activity, and unique-device checks).
11. Fraud & Abuse
The Promoter reserves the right to void predictions, freeze accounts, and withhold credit in cases of suspected fraud, multi-accounting, or abuse.
12. Data Protection
Personal data is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Marketing communications require separate opt-in consent and can be withdrawn at any time.
13. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
13a. League Wagers
League wagers are private arrangements between members. Hot Comps Ltd does not offer, hold, adjudicate or enforce them, and they form no part of the Promotion’s prizes.
