Set Up in Minutes

No software, no spreadsheets, no passing a sheet around the office — your pool lives online from day one.

Nothing to Install

Create your grid in minutes — it gets its own unique link that players can open on any device.

Name It Yours

Call your pool whatever you want — "Sam's Football Squares" appears as the title across every page your players see.

Rules Ready to Go

Start with our sample rules, then set your own costs, payouts, and entry requirements to fit your group — or have AI draft them for you.

Run Your Pool on Autopilot

From generating numbers to crowning winners, the tedious parts run themselves.

Chargers end in 4, Bills end in 7? That square just won — automatically.

Automatic Winner Tracking New

Live NFL and college football scores mark winning squares in real time — no scoreboard-watching or manual updates.

Season-Long Grids New

Run one grid across all 18 weeks of the season — same squares, new matchup, numbers and winners every week.

One-Click Numbers

Randomly generate digits with a single click — use one set for the whole game, or different numbers per quarter or per half.

Automatic Emails

You and your players both get email confirmations for every pick, so nobody wonders whether their squares went through.

Make It Yours

Your pool should look and read like your pool — from the colors on the board to the words in the rules.

Square Icons New

Players pick an icon when they claim a square — a football, a taco, a goat. Each icon belongs to one player per grid, and you can run an icon-only board.

Draft It with AI New

Rules, payment instructions, the confirmation email, a note to your players — describe your pool and get a draft built from your grid's real details. Edit, then save.

Team Colors & Themes

Theme your board with your matchup's team colors — or choose your own custom color scheme with a live preview.

Rich Rules Editor

Write your rules and instructions in a full WYSIWYG editor — formatting, links, even images.

Payouts & Payment Sections New

Spell out what each quarter pays and how players should pay you, in their own sections on the rules page — or leave them off entirely.

Team Names Every Week New

On a season grid, each week carries its own matchup — pick the game and the team names land on the board, or type your own and swap them with a click.

Built for Players

A pool is only as fun as it is easy to join — your players get a board that works wherever they are.

Live Scores on the Board New

The score sits right above the grid and refreshes on its own. When a quarter ends, the winning square gets its trophy and a label for the period it won.

Mobile-Friendly Boards New

Rebuilt to play great on phones — players pick squares and check the board from anywhere, with a list view when the grid gets tight.

Dark Mode New

Easy on the eyes for night games — the whole site adapts to each player's preference automatically.

Switch Weeks on the Board New

On a season grid, players flip between weeks right on the board to see that week's numbers, matchup, and winners.

Print-Ready Board

A clean, board-only printout with an ink-saving option. The numbers email carries a print link that skips the grid login, and season printouts are labeled with their week.

QR-Code Sharing

Print or show a scannable code and players jump straight to your grid — perfect for parties and watch events.

You're in Control

Your pool, your look, your rules — with the admin tools to keep everything organized.

Passwords & Pick Codes

Every grid is password protected at its own unique URL — and you can require a pick code before anyone claims a square.

Email Winners in One Click

Mark the winners and send them the good news from the same screen. On a season grid, email one week's winners or the whole season's.

Resend the Numbers Email New

Someone missed the numbers email? Send it again without redrawing — the numbers stay exactly as they were.

Track Who's Paid

Mark players as paid with one click, so you always know exactly who still owes.

Full Entrant Roster

See a clean summary of everyone in your pool — name, email, referrer, and paid status. Email typos get flagged before they bounce, so nobody misses the numbers.

CSV Export

Download your player list for any spreadsheet app — handy for records, payouts, and fundraising totals.

Every Change Logged New

Numbers drawn, winners marked, players edited, settings changed — your grid keeps a full history you can review or export to PDF when a player asks "who changed that?"

PDF Receipts New

Every purchase comes with a PDF receipt, and your full billing history is one click away — exactly what a fundraiser treasurer asks for.

Sign In Without a Password New

Forgot your password on game day? Get a one-tap sign-in link by email and you're back in your admin panel in seconds.

Your template and payout works perfect for us, 50% goes to our charity... Thank you for creating this awesome site!
