World cup prediction game

• back to: Manuals

Nothing beats a World Cup betting game for entertainment in all social circles, clubs and companies. Even avowed enemies of football will take up scarves and cheer their team on to the title - and themselves for betting champion, of course.

Here are some pieces of advice for all those wishing to create a betting game for the World Cup 2014:

1: Create your betting community and select World Cup 2014 as the betting game

Start your betting community on time, i.e. at least 3 weeks prior to the first match, and invite your friends and colleagues to join it. Advice for Creating a Betting Community

If you choose the World Cup 2014 as your betting game on Kicktipp, you will already have a finished betting game at your disposal and be able to start right in.

2: Predict All Goals or 90-Minute Full Time

On Kicktipp, we generally consider all goals that are scored in a match, including those resulting from extra-time or penalty shootouts. After all, not every match ends after 90 minutes. But you can change this rule to your liking: you can find instructions on how to change your World Cup betting game to "90-Minute Full Time" in our guidelines 90-Minute Full Time.

In large tournaments such as World or European Cups, the majority of points are won in the group phase. Furthermore, the favourites are often obvious, meaning that bets on outsiders are very unattractive in the case of a static points rule. If your betting community consists of experienced players, you can switch to a quota rule and perhaps increase the number of points to be gained in the knockout stages. But take care not to make the rules too complicated. Many players will be betting for the first time in the context of this tournament.

4: Book a Professional Account for your Company

Does your company have intranet or an external website? Would you like to bet on the World Cup with your colleagues or clients? Then why not book a professional account on Kicktipp, in order to integrate your World Cup betting game directly into your website.

5: After the World Cup is Before the Premier League

After the World Cup final, you will crown your champion. Naturally, you can also directly continue your betting community by playing the Premier League - the "Restart" function will allow you to switch your betting game to the new season with a few clicks. And on it goes...
