About PolyBet World Cup 2026
The side play, the rules, the soul of it.
What this is
PolyBet World Cup 2026 is a side play of PolyBet — a prediction market where you bet FWR on every match of the 2026 World Cup, build your bracket, and compete in a winner-takes-all tournament pot.
Why a separate site?
The main PolyBet platform handles every kind of market — sports, crypto, politics, memes. The WC deserves a focused space: its own theme, its own leaderboard, its own pot, its own bracket. Your FWR balance is shared, but the tournament lives here.
How resolution works
Each match resolves manually by an admin running /wc_resolve
on the Telegram bot. We cross-reference results against multiple data providers
(API-Sports + The Odds API) before settling — no automated wire-ins, no edge cases gone rogue.
Anti-gaming
Every market closes 5 minutes before kickoff. No buys, no sells, no exits during the gap before the whistle. This prevents anyone from using a delay-relayed broadcast or in-stadium info to snipe a position seconds before the game starts.
