Terms of Service
These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you ("you," "your," "Member," or "User") and BetterBets LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company ("BetterBets," "Company," "we," "us," or "our"). They govern your access to and use of the website located at https://shopbetterbets.com (the "Site"), our Discord community, our email communications, and any picks, predictions, analysis, tools, content, products, memberships, or services we provide (collectively, the "Services").
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS ABOUT THE NATURE OF OUR SERVICES, A NO-REFUND POLICY, A LIMITATION OF OUR LIABILITY, AND A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION WITH A CLASS-ACTION WAIVER (SECTION 18) THAT AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO BRING A CLAIM IN COURT OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
By accessing or using the Services, creating an account, joining our Discord, submitting your email address, or purchasing a membership, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, which are incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Services.
1. Nature of Our Services (Read This First)
This Section is the most important part of these Terms. By using the Services you confirm that you understand and accept the following:
1.1 We provide information and education only. BetterBets is a sports information and entertainment service. We provide sports data, statistical models, opinions, analysis, predictions, and suggested wagers (collectively, "Picks"). All Picks and content are provided for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only.
1.2 We are not a sportsbook or gambling operator. We do not accept, place, broker, or facilitate any bet or wager. We do not operate a sportsbook, casino, betting exchange, or gambling platform. We do not hold, escrow, transmit, or manage any funds used for betting. Any wager you place is made by you, in your own name, on a third-party sportsbook or betting platform that is independent of BetterBets and over which we have no control.
1.3 We are not financial, investment, or professional advisors. BetterBets is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, financial planner, tax advisor, or licensed professional of any kind. Nothing we provide constitutes investment advice, financial advice, tax advice, legal advice, or a recommendation to engage in any transaction. Sports wagering is not an investment.
1.4 No guarantee of results. We do not guarantee, warrant, or promise any winnings, profits, returns, accuracy, or outcomes of any kind. Picks are opinions and predictions about uncertain future events and may be wrong. Sports outcomes are inherently unpredictable.
1.5 Betting involves substantial risk of loss. Sports wagering carries a significant risk of financial loss, including the loss of all money you wager. You should never wager money you cannot afford to lose. You are solely and exclusively responsible for any and all bets, wagers, and financial decisions you make, and for any losses you incur.
1.6 You decide; you are responsible. You are free to use, modify, or ignore any Pick. Any action you take based on the Services is taken at your own discretion and your own risk. BetterBets has no liability for your betting decisions or their outcomes.
2. Earnings, Testimonials, and Results Disclaimer
2.1 No income promise. Any statements, examples, screenshots, testimonials, average figures, or case studies on the Site, in our marketing, in our Discord, or in our communications that describe past or potential winnings, profits, earnings, or returns are illustrative only. They are NOT a promise, guarantee, or representation that you or any member will achieve the same or any particular results.
2.2 Results are not typical and individual results vary. Any results referenced are not necessarily typical or representative of what you should expect. Many factors affect betting outcomes, including the amount wagered, timing, sportsbook limits and availability, line movement, your own judgment, discipline, and pure chance. Most forms of sports wagering result in net losses for most participants over time.
2.3 Past performance does not guarantee future results. Historical or hypothetical performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. We do not represent that any model, strategy, or track record will continue or be profitable.
2.4 Your responsibility to evaluate. You should not purchase or use the Services in reliance on any expectation of profit. You assume all risk associated with your reliance on any information we provide.
3. Eligibility
By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:
3.1 Age. You are at least 21 years old, or the minimum legal age for sports wagering in your jurisdiction if that age is higher. The Services are not directed to and may not be used by anyone under these age requirements.
3.2 Legal jurisdiction. You are accessing and using the Services from a location, and you reside in a jurisdiction, where sports wagering and the use of sports information services such as ours are lawful. Sports betting and related information services are restricted or prohibited in some U.S. states and many countries. It is your sole responsibility to determine whether your use of the Services and any wagering you undertake is legal where you are located, and to comply with all applicable laws.
3.3 Self-certification and self-exclusion. You are not listed on any self-exclusion register, are not prohibited from gambling, and are not using the Services in violation of any court order, casino or sportsbook ban, or applicable law. You are not a professional or employee of a sports league, team, or sportsbook whose use of the Services would violate any rule or law.
3.4 Capacity. You have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms and are not barred from doing so under any applicable law.
3.5 No reliance on us for legality. We do not verify, and make no representation about, the legality of sports wagering or our Services in your specific location. We may, but are not obligated to, restrict or refuse access to anyone or in any jurisdiction at our discretion.
4. Accounts and Discord Community
4.1 Account registration. Some Services require you to register, provide an email address and name, or join our Discord server. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep it updated.
4.2 Account security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and Discord access, and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. We are not liable for losses caused by unauthorized use of your account.
4.3 One account per person. Memberships are personal to you. You may not share, transfer, sell, or allow others to use your account, access, or Picks. See Section 9.
4.4 Community conduct. Our Discord and any community spaces are subject to the rules posted there and these Terms. We may remove content, mute, suspend, or ban any member at our discretion, including for harassment, spam, sharing paid content, or violating these Terms.
5. Memberships, Billing, and Auto-Renewal
5.1 Free tier. We may offer free content, including a free Discord channel and a free daily pick. Free offerings are provided "as is," may change or end at any time, and are subject to these Terms.
5.2 Paid memberships. We offer one or more paid membership tiers ("Paid Membership"). Features, inclusions, and prices for each tier are described at the point of purchase and may change as described below.
5.3 Authorization to charge. When you purchase a Paid Membership, you authorize us and our third-party payment processor to charge your designated payment method for the applicable fees, plus any taxes, in accordance with the billing terms presented at checkout.
5.4 Automatic renewal. PAID MEMBERSHIPS ARE SUBSCRIPTIONS THAT RENEW AUTOMATICALLY. Unless you cancel before the end of your then-current billing cycle, your membership will automatically renew for successive periods of the same length (for example, month to month), and your payment method will be charged the then-current renewal price at the start of each new cycle, until you cancel. By purchasing, you consent to these recurring charges.
5.5 Cancellation. You may cancel your Paid Membership at any time through the cancellation method we make available (for example, your account or billing portal, the payment processor, or by contacting us at the address in the Contact Us section). Cancellation stops future renewals. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. You will generally retain access through the end of the period you have already paid for, and you will not be charged for subsequent periods.
5.6 No refunds. Except as required by law or as stated in our Refund Policy, all payments are final and non-refundable, including for partial billing periods and unused access. Cancelling a subscription stops future charges but does not entitle you to a refund of amounts already paid. See our Refund Policy and Section 8.
5.7 Price changes. We may change membership prices, fees, and the features included in any tier. For recurring subscriptions, we will provide notice of a price change before it applies to your next renewal as required by applicable law, and the change will take effect at your next billing cycle. If you do not agree to a price change, you must cancel before the change takes effect; continued use after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance.
5.8 Free trials and promotions. If we offer a free trial or promotional rate, the terms presented at sign-up control. Unless you cancel before the trial or promotional period ends, you authorize us to charge the standard price when the trial or promotion ends. Promotional offers may not be combined and may be modified or withdrawn at any time.
5.9 Failed payments. If a charge is declined or fails, we may suspend or terminate your access, retry the charge, and update your payment information through account updater services offered by card networks. You remain responsible for amounts owed.
5.10 Taxes. Prices may exclude applicable taxes. You are responsible for any sales, use, value-added, or similar taxes associated with your purchase, other than taxes based on our net income.
5.11 Auto-renewal law compliance. Where required by applicable automatic-renewal laws (including, where applicable, the California Automatic Renewal Law and similar state statutes), we will present the auto-renewal terms clearly before purchase, obtain your affirmative consent, send any required acknowledgments or renewal reminders, and provide an accessible method to cancel. To the extent any term of these Terms conflicts with a mandatory consumer-protection requirement of your jurisdiction, that mandatory requirement controls for you.
6. Refunds
All sales are final and memberships are non-refundable except as expressly provided in our Refund Policy or required by applicable law. Our Refund Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By purchasing, you acknowledge and agree to the Refund Policy.
7. Payment Processing
Payments are handled by one or more third-party payment processors. We do not store full payment card numbers. Your use of payment processing is subject to the processor's terms and privacy policy in addition to ours. You represent that you are authorized to use the payment method you provide.
8. Acceptable Use and Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to, and not to permit any third party to:
8.1 Share, resell, redistribute, republish, syndicate, stream, screenshot for distribution, post publicly, or otherwise make available any Picks, content, models, or paid materials to any person who is not an authorized paying Member. Picks and content are licensed to you for your personal, non-commercial use only.
8.2 Use any automated means (bots, scrapers, crawlers) to access, copy, or monitor the Services, or attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or derive our models or methods.
8.3 Create more than one account, share account credentials, or circumvent access controls, paywalls, or membership limits.
8.4 Use the Services in any unlawful manner, for any unlawful wagering, or in any jurisdiction where the Services or sports wagering are prohibited.
8.5 Harass, threaten, defame, or abuse our staff or other members; post spam, solicitations, malware, or illegal content; or impersonate any person.
8.6 Infringe our or any third party's intellectual property, privacy, or other rights.
8.7 Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services, our systems, our Discord, or other users' accounts.
We may investigate and take any action we deem appropriate for a violation, including removing content, suspending or terminating access without refund, and reporting to law enforcement.
9. Intellectual Property and License
9.1 Our content. The Services and all content we provide, including Picks, models, algorithms, analysis, text, graphics, logos, the "BetterBets" name and brand, and the design and organization of the Site, are owned by or licensed to BetterBets and are protected by intellectual property and other laws.
9.2 Limited license to you. Subject to your compliance with these Terms and payment of applicable fees, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Services and Picks solely for your own personal, non-commercial use during your membership.
9.3 Reservation of rights. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. You acquire no ownership in any of our content. The license terminates automatically when your membership or these Terms end.
10. User Content and Feedback
10.1 Your content. You may post messages, screenshots, results, reviews, or other content in our Discord, on the Site, or to us ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content, but you grant BetterBets a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable, transferable license to use, reproduce, display, distribute, and create derivative works of your User Content for operating, promoting, and marketing the Services, including using testimonials and results you share. You can ask us to stop using a specific testimonial going forward by contacting us.
10.2 Your responsibility. You are solely responsible for your User Content and represent that you have the rights to post it and that it does not violate any law or third-party right.
10.3 Feedback. If you send us suggestions or feedback, you grant us the right to use it without restriction or compensation.
11. Third-Party Services, Sportsbooks, and Links
The Services reference, link to, or operate alongside third-party services, including sportsbooks (such as DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and others), Discord, payment processors, and email providers. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party services, their content, availability, odds, limits, account decisions (including limiting or banning your sportsbook account), terms, or privacy practices. Any dealings you have with third parties are solely between you and them. Unless we expressly state otherwise, we are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any sportsbook or sports league, and trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
12. Responsible Gambling
We support responsible gambling. Only wager what you can afford to lose, set limits, and never chase losses. If you or someone you know may have a gambling problem, help is available. In the United States, call or text the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER (1-800-426-2537) or visit https://www.ncpgambling.org. Many jurisdictions and sportsbooks offer self-exclusion and deposit-limit tools; we encourage you to use them. If you have self-excluded or believe you may have a gambling problem, you should not use the Services.
13. Disclaimer of Warranties
13.1 THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ALL PICKS AND CONTENT, ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
13.2 WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE ACCURATE, RELIABLE, PROFITABLE, UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; THAT PICKS WILL WIN OR BE CORRECT; OR THAT ANY RESULTS OR EARNINGS WILL BE ACHIEVED. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM US CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED HERE.
13.3 SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
14. Limitation of Liability
14.1 TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL BETTERBETS OR ITS OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BETTING LOSSES, WINNINGS NOT REALIZED, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
14.2 WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY MONEY YOU WAGER OR LOSE, ANY BET YOU PLACE OR FAIL TO PLACE, ANY SPORTSBOOK'S ACTIONS (INCLUDING LIMITING OR CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT), OR ANY DECISION YOU MAKE BASED ON THE SERVICES.
14.3 TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICES IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
14.4 THESE LIMITATIONS ARE A FUNDAMENTAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND US. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
15. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless BetterBets and its owners, members, managers, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Services; (b) any bet or wager you place; (c) your violation of these Terms or any law; (d) your violation of any third-party right; or (e) your User Content.
16. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Services at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, including for violation of these Terms. You may stop using the Services at any time and may cancel a Paid Membership as described in Section 5. Upon termination, your license to use the Services ends immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including Sections 1, 2, 9, 13, 14, 15, 18, and 19, and the Refund Policy.
17. Changes to the Services and These Terms
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time. We may also update these Terms. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date and, where required by law, provide additional notice (for example, by email or a notice on the Site). Changes are effective when posted unless stated otherwise. Your continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Services and may cancel.
18. Dispute Resolution, Binding Arbitration, and Class-Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU AND BETTERBETS TO RESOLVE MOST DISPUTES THROUGH INDIVIDUAL BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT, AND IT WAIVES YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU MAY OPT OUT AS DESCRIBED BELOW.
18.1 Informal resolution first. Before starting an arbitration, you and we agree to try to resolve any dispute informally for at least sixty (60) days. To begin, send a written notice describing the dispute and the relief sought to the address in the Contact Us section (for us) or to the email associated with your account (for you). If the dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days, either party may begin arbitration. This informal process is a condition precedent to arbitration.
18.2 Agreement to arbitrate. Except for the claims described in Section 18.6, you and BetterBets agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services (a "Dispute") will be resolved exclusively by final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court. This includes disputes about the formation, validity, interpretation, or enforceability of these Terms or this arbitration agreement, except that a court may decide whether the class-action waiver in Section 18.5 is enforceable.
18.3 Arbitration rules and forum. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, as modified by these Terms. The rules are available at https://www.adr.org. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section. The arbitration may be conducted by telephone, video, or written submissions, or in person in the county where you reside or another mutually agreed location, so that participating is not unreasonably burdensome.
18.4 Costs. Payment of filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA rules, except that we will pay or reimburse those fees to the extent required by the AAA rules or applicable law, or where they would be prohibitively higher than the cost of a court action. Each party is otherwise responsible for its own attorneys' fees unless a statute or the arbitrator's award provides otherwise.
18.5 Class-action and jury waiver. YOU AND BETTERBETS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any form of class or representative proceeding. YOU AND BETTERBETS WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. If this class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief, that claim or request will be severed and may proceed in court, while all other claims proceed in arbitration.
18.6 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the above, either party may: (a) bring an individual claim in small-claims court if it qualifies; and (b) seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property or confidential information. These exceptions are not waivers of the arbitration agreement for other claims.
18.7 Right to opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement (Sections 18.2 through 18.5) by sending written notice within thirty (30) days after you first accept these Terms. The notice must include your name, the email associated with your account, and a clear statement that you opt out of arbitration. Send it to the address or email in the Contact Us section. If you opt out, Section 19 (Governing Law and Venue) governs disputes in court. Opting out of arbitration does not affect any other part of these Terms.
18.8 Survival. This Section survives termination of these Terms and your membership.
19. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms and any Dispute are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and, where applicable, by the Federal Arbitration Act. For any matter not subject to arbitration (including if you opt out under Section 18.7, or for claims in court permitted by Section 18.6), you and BetterBets consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Wyoming, and you waive any objection to that venue. Nothing in this Section deprives you of the protection of any mandatory consumer-protection law of your place of residence.
20. Communications and Electronic Notices
20.1 Consent to electronic communications. By providing your email address or using the Services, you consent to receive communications from us electronically, including service and transactional messages and, where you have opted in, marketing emails. You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in each email or as described in our Privacy Policy; you cannot opt out of transactional messages necessary to provide the Services (for example, billing and account notices) while you maintain an account.
20.2 Electronic records. You agree that electronic communications, agreements, and records satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
21. General Provisions
21.1 Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, are the entire agreement between you and BetterBets regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements.
21.2 Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force.
21.3 No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
21.4 Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our consent. We may assign these Terms freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
21.5 Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform due to causes beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, outages, third-party service failures, or changes in law.
21.6 Relationship. Nothing in these Terms creates any partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, or fiduciary relationship between you and us.
21.7 Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
21.8 Contact. Questions about these Terms may be sent to us using the Contact Us details below.
22. Contact Us
