With the 2026 FIFA World Cup<\/a> touching down on home soil in Vancouver and Toronto, soccer fever across US is reaching an all-time high. If you want to get in on the action and test your soccer IQ without placing traditional single-game wagers, BetOnline has launched the perfect promotion: the $25,000 World Cup Pick\u2019em Contest<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is a detailed breakdown of how bettors can participate, the core rules of the game, and how the guaranteed prize pools are structured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26bd How the Pick’em Contest Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The BetOnline World Cup Pick\u2019em is a prediction contest running throughout the entire 2026 FIFA World Cup. Registration officially opens on Friday, May 29th, 2026<\/strong>, and entries close on Sunday, July 19th, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mechanics of the game are incredibly straightforward:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Make Your Picks:<\/strong> Predict the straight-up winning team for every single game of the tournament. During the Group Stage, you also have the option to predict if a match will end in a draw.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Earn Points:<\/strong> For every correct prediction you lock in, you earn exactly one (1) point toward the leaderboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Maximum Flexibility:<\/strong> You can submit or change your predictions at any time right up until the specified kick-off time of each individual game. Once the match starts, your pick is locked.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Online Only:<\/strong> Keep in mind that registration and all contest picks must be made strictly online through the contest portal; entries via phone, live chat, or email will not be accepted. There is a strict limit of one entry per account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    \ud83d\udcb0 The Qualification Rule (The “Catch”)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    While the contest is technically free to enter for anyone with a valid BetOnline account, there is a specific wagering requirement you must meet to actually qualify for and claim any cash prizes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    To unlock eligibility for the prize pool in any given round, you must wager a minimum of $25 in real money<\/strong> within the BetOnline Sportsbook, Casino, or Racebook during that specific round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Example:<\/strong> To be eligible for the Round 1 payouts, you must place at least $25 in qualifying real-money wagers between June 11 and June 17. All qualifying wagers must be fully graded within 12 hours of that round ending to secure your eligibility.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

    \ud83c\udfc6 The Prize Breakdown: $25,000 Guaranteed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    BetOnline isn’t just handing out one massive prize at the end of the summer. To keep players engaged from the opening match to the final whistle, the $25,000 prize pool is split across four distinct stages of the tournament:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Round<\/strong><\/td>Tournament Stage<\/strong><\/td>Dates<\/strong><\/td>Prize Pool<\/strong><\/td>Leaderboard Payouts<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead>
    Round 1<\/strong><\/td>Group Stage<\/td>June 11 \u2013 17<\/td>$5,000<\/strong><\/td>Top 500 players paid (1st gets $250)<\/td><\/tr>
    Round 2<\/strong><\/td>Group Stage<\/td>June 18 \u2013 23<\/td>$5,000<\/strong><\/td>Top 500 players paid (1st gets $250)<\/td><\/tr>
    Round 3<\/strong><\/td>Group Stage<\/td>June 24 \u2013 27<\/td>$5,000<\/strong><\/td>Top 500 players paid (1st gets $250)<\/td><\/tr>
    Round 4<\/strong><\/td>Knockout Stage<\/td>June 28 \u2013 July 19<\/td>$10,000<\/strong><\/td>Top 500 players paid (1st gets $500)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Because Round 4 covers the entire Knockout Stage (including the third-place consolation game), the stakes are officially doubled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Tie-Breakers & Payout Logistics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    If multiple contestants finish tied for a position on the leaderboard, there are no complicated tie-breaker questions. Instead, the prize money for those tied positions will simply be pooled together and split evenly among the tied players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The best part of this promotion? All winnings are credited directly to your BetOnline account within 48 hours<\/strong> of the final game of each round. Even better, the prizes are paid out as pure cash with zero rollover requirements<\/strong>, meaning you can withdraw your winnings or use them as you see fit immediately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
