The basics

What is 1x2.social?

1x2.social is a free social community app for sports-betting fans and tipsters. Tipsters post picks on real upcoming games, 1x2.social settles each pick automatically from the final score, and every tipster builds a verified public record of win rate, form and ROI, with leaderboards. Friends can tail or fade any pick, upvote, comment, repost, bookmark and follow. It's just for fun: no real money is involved.

Is 1x2.social a betting site?

No. 1x2.social is not a betting site, sportsbook or bookmaker. It doesn't take bets, hold stakes, set odds to bet on or pay out winnings. Nobody pays or wins anything on a pick. 1x2.social is where you post your picks, see how your friends' picks do and keep a record, for bragging rights only.

Does 1x2.social involve real money?

No. There is no real money and no stake on any pick. Odds and units are only there to score the record, and a unit is a tracking unit, not money. Joining, posting, tailing, fading and following are all free.

Who is 1x2.social for?

Sports-betting fans who like calling games with their friends, and tipsters who want a record people can trust. You must be 18 or over.

Where can I use 1x2.social?

1x2.social runs on iOS, Android and the web. The web app is at app.1x2.social. People are being let in from the waitlist in batches.

When will I get access?

Now. 1x2.social is in open beta: create a free account with Google, Apple or an email link on iOS, Android or the web, and you can follow tipsters, tail picks and post your own straight away.

Picks and verification

How are results verified?

Every pick is linked to a specific real game when you post it and timestamped. After the game finishes, 1x2.social reads the final score and marks the pick won, lost or void automatically. Tipsters never mark their own results.

What kinds of picks can I post?

Picks on real upcoming games: who wins (moneyline) or total goals or points (over/under), with the odds you're taking and your confidence in units.

What happens if a game is cancelled or postponed?

The pick is void. It doesn't count as a win or a loss, and it shows as V in your form.

How are win rate and ROI calculated?

Win rate is winners divided by settled winners and losers. ROI is profit divided by total staked, counted in tracking units, with leaderboard ROI assuming the same stake on every pick. There's a worked example on How it works.

How does the leaderboard rank tipsters?

By settled picks only, over the last 30 days or all time. The default ranking weights win rate with a bonus for volume up to 100 picks, and you can also sort by ROI, win rate or streak. Followers don't count. Details.

Tail, Fade and My slip

What does it mean to Tail a pick?

Tailing copies a friend's or tipster's pick onto your own slip, so you're backing them. It settles from the same final score as the original pick. No money is involved.

What does it mean to Fade a pick?

Fading means going against a pick because you think it will lose. If the pick loses, your fade comes good. It's for bragging rights only.

What is My slip?

My slip holds every pick you're part of, whether you posted, tailed or faded it, until the game settles. A losing pick becomes a torn ticket.

Cost

What does 1x2.social cost?

Nothing. Joining, posting picks, tailing, fading and following are free, and there's no real money on any pick.

Safety and privacy

Can I report a post or block someone?

Yes. Any post can be reported and any account can be blocked. Blocked accounts disappear from your feed.

Is there an age limit?

Yes, 18 or over. 1x2.social is about sports-betting picks, so it is not for anyone under 18.

What do you do with my waitlist email?

We use it to tell you when your spot opens and to send launch updates. We don't sell it or share it with bookmakers. Ask us to delete it at any time. Details in the privacy policy.

Are picks on 1x2.social financial advice?

No. Picks are the opinions of the people who post them, and past results don't guarantee future ones. If betting elsewhere stops being fun, see our responsible gambling page for free help.
