Compliance with Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act Of 2006

 

TeamStake is not to be used as a vehicle to aid in gambling activities. As described in the Eligibility section of these Terms, Leagues must comply with the definition of fantasy sports play as outlined in the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act.

For a League to be eligible to use TeamStake’s services and offerings, it must meet the criteria outlined in the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, which states:

  1. All prizes and awards offered to winning participants are established and made known to the participants in advance of the game or contest and their value is not determined by the number of participants or the amount of any fees paid by those participants.
  2. All winning outcomes reflect the relative knowledge and skill of the participants and are determined predominantly by accumulated statistical results of the performance of individuals (athletes in the case of sports events) in multiple real-world sporting or other events.

No winning outcome is based: a) on the score, point spread, or any performance or performances of any single real-world team or any combination of such teams; or b) solely on any single performance of an individual athlete in any single real-world sporting or other event.

By using the TeamStake website and services, for any manner, length of time or purpose, Members agree that they will not do any of the following:

  • Lie
  • Cheat
  • Steal
  • Launder stolen, fraudulent or illegally acquired funds;
  • Hack the TeamStake infrastructure;
  • Break any law or regulation
  • Use TeamStake as an aid to online or offline gambling

If a Member violates any of the above Restricted Activities, TeamStake reserves the right to protect itself and its user by taking any type of action against Member. TeamStake reserves the right to cancel this agreement, and all access to this site and services for any reason.

 

PAYMENTS

TeamStake is completely free to use for all fantasy sports leagues. We do not take a percentage from the pot and will not charge any hidden fees upon payout.

TeamStake has two League payment options:

  • Credit/Debit Card: These transaction types require a 3% processing fee.
  • E-Check: This method allows Members to make payments via e-checks with no processing fee.

All Leagues rely on a Commissioner to set the payment deadline and no payments are allowed after that deadline has passed. If a League is missing payments after the payment deadline has passed, the Commissioner will have the choice to either keep the League running or cancel the League and refund everyone’s money into their TeamStake wallets.

Members are able to pay the League entry fee for other League Members simply by going to the League payment page, clicking on the “Pay Now” button next to the League Member you wish to pay for, and following the payment steps. Members can pay for as many others as he/she wants.

Refunds are available so long as the League has not yet reached its payment deadline.

League Commissioners have the option to incentivize League members to make their payments on time. If a Commissioner chooses to activate the late payment feature for a League, league members are allows to make payments past the payment deadline. The late fee amounts are fully customizable and 100% of the late fees will go back into the League’s pot. TeamStake does not take any portion of the late fees. It is up to the Commissioner to designate the distribution of late fees (e.g., all to First Place, split evenly amongst winners, split amongst entire League.)

 

Customizable Payout Process

 

TeamStake believes that every Leagues’ money should be distributed however they see fit. The Commissioner has free reign over what the payout structure will be for each League. Our fully customizable interface offers a variety of options. Dynasty and empire League settings are also available. A League’s payout structure cannot be changed after the first payment is made.

In order to assure that the right League Members are paid at the end of the season, TeamStake offers leagues three different payout verification methods. The Commissioner can pick from any of these options and the verification method cannot be changed after the first payment is made.

Below are the three choices for the Payout Verification Process:

  1. Unanimous: Upon completion of the season, all League members have the ability to vote on the Commissioner’s payout allocation. League funds are transferred when ALL members approve the Commissioner’s payout allocation. Every Member must vote; if there is even one unresponsive or opposing Member, the distribution of League funds will be blocked. This option provides peace of mind, however, usually takes longer and carries the risk that a member does not agree or vote which holds up the payment of funds.
  2. Majority: The League funds are transferred when a majority of League members give their approval. This option does not require all members to vote.
  3. Commissioner only: The Commissioner takes full responsibility of the payout allocation and the allocations are not reviewed by the rest of the League. This is the recommended option for League members who know the Commissioner and want to get their payouts quickly.

No winning outcome is based: a) on the score, point spread, or any performance or performances of any single real-world team or any combination of such teams; or b) solely on any single performance of an individual athlete in any single real-world sporting or other event

For The Unanimous and Majority approval Leagues, League members have 10 days to vote on the payout allocation. If, after 10 days, there are still members who have not voted, the submitted votes will be counted and a majority for approval (i.e. 4 of 7) will serve to verify the Commissioner’s allocation.

A single NO vote blocks the payout allocation in Unanimous Leagues.

Payouts will go through in all Leagues if 48 hours pass without a single NO vote.

TeamStake may change the Payout Verification Process for any league at any point according to its discretion.

 

Abstentions

 

Members who fail to vote due to inactivity will have an abstention vote cast on their behalf by TeamStake. Said Members are thus removed from the voting pool.

 

Commissioner Specific

 

League members can make payment to Commissioners in cash so long as the Commissioner then transfers the funds into the League account by way of selecting “Pay Now” next to that member's name.

Commissioners have the opportunity to reimburse themselves for their fantasy League expenses (e.g., draft parties, League management fees, League trophies, etc.). This feature allows Commissioners to take any amount up to $300 from the League’s pot. The amount of funds allocated to Commissioner reimbursement cannot be changed after the first payment is made.

Commissioner reimbursement funds are available at the end of your league's fantasy sports season.

Members who disagree with the Commissioner’s intention to use Commissioner reimbursement are encouraged to discuss the matter with the Commissioner and should not make any payments into the League’s balance until a resolution is reached. TeamStake is not responsible for these funds or disputes.

TeamStake does not charge any fees for the use of the Commissioner Reimbursement feature.

 

Payments to TeamStake

 

All monies deposited by Members and Leagues pursuant to these Terms will be managed and distributed according to these Terms and will be made directly to TeamStake. TeamStake will retain, manage and distribute all monies paid by Members and Leagues pursuant to and in accordance with these Terms.

Monies that are deposited by Members and Leagues to TeamStake, pursuant to these Terms, are owned by TeamStake. The monies owned by TeamStake can be pooled into one or more accounts or investments in the name of TeamStake and Member hereby authorizes TeamStake to use such discretion in the management of such monies. TeamStake’s pooling of funds paid by Members and Leagues will have no effect on Member or League account balances. All returns earned on the monies paid to TeamStake pursuant to these Terms will be the sole property of TeamStake. TeamStake will not pay any interest or earnings to any Member or League on any monies paid to TeamStake pursuant to these Terms.

Neither TeamStake nor any of its members, managers, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with its role as collateral agent except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In its capacity as collateral agent, TeamStake is hereby authorized by Member to consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

Member further acknowledges that neither TeamStake nor any of its members, managers, officers, agents or employees (TeamStake Parties) shall incur any liability, and the Member will hold such TeamStake Parties harmless, under or in respect of these Terms by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing providing direction from Member, a Commissioner or a League and believed by any of the TeamStake Parties to be genuine or by acting upon any representation or warranty of the Member, Commissioner or League made or deemed to be made hereunder.

 

Payment Deadlines

 

TeamStake will define a specific date for each season (“TeamStake Payment Deadline”) as the last date for accepting payments.

League Commissioners may choose to allow late payments in their League. In doing so, they must make the option available to all Members of their League by turning the late payment feature on, by default this feature is turned off.

 

Payments Accepted

 

TeamStake accepts payments via credit/debit, e-check or account balance transfer. There is a 3% transaction processing fee for credit/debit use, which is solely to cover fees charged to TeamStake.

 

Payout Allocation

 

Once the regular season ends, Commissioners can begin allocating League funds to Members. Funds are transferred when the League’s Payout Verification Process has been satisfied.

In Leagues that require a vote, the voting period will begin immediately after the Commissioner submits the League’s payout allocation. All Leagues allow members to vote for ten (10) days. Once the waiting period has run, any non-voting Members will have an automatic abstention vote and the allocation will pass or fail based on the number of votes cast. (Rules for abstentions can be found above).

Once any required voting has been completed, funds are transferred to Member accounts immediately.

Should the necessary voting criteria not be met for an allocation, the allocation will not occur, and the Commissioner must create a new allocation. If this has not happened within 60 days of the end of the Regular Season, or the Commissioner does not initiate a fund allocation within 60 days of the end of the Regular Season, Members can contact customer service to make an allocation request. Once a majority of League Members approves of an allocation, the League balance on the date of the request will be allocated to Member accounts pro rata based on the original amounts paid into the League.

 

Receiving Payouts

 

Monies held in Member’s accounts can be accessed at any time upon request. Member accounts and League accounts are different.

All Members with positive account balances can request a payout at any time.

Any errors associated with the mailing of checks during this process will be the responsibility of the Member. Any and all fees associated with incorrect names, incorrect addresses, or cancelled checks will be the responsibility of the Member. Once Paper Check Withdrawals are submitted there is no guarantee that they can be cancelled. Cancellations can result in loss of funds for Member if name or address is not entered correctly.

All incentives are defined by TeamStake on a per-season basis. TeamStake reserves the right to disqualify any Member from participating in the referral program and to take back any referral incentives that were awarded.

TeamStake reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Referral Program at any time and will not be liable to any Member with regards to the Referral Program.

EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE NOTED, YOU AND TEAMSTAKE HEREBY AGREE TO RESOLVE ALL CLAIMS THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION ONLY. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY THIS AGREEMENT YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO BRING A CLAIM IN COURT OR BEFORE A JURY OF YOUR PEERS.

Claims will be handled by a single arbitrator appointed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and pursuant to the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time the claim is filed, except where those rules conflict with this Agreement. Claimants can contact AAA by calling their toll free number (800-778-7879) or visiting www.adr.org. Any arbitration under this agreement will be held in Los Angeles, California. TeamStake will not elect arbitration for any Claim filed in small claims court with jurisdiction over TeamStake, as long as the claim is individual and pending only in that court.

Any questions regarding the enforceability or interpretation of this Section shall be decided by a Court with jurisdiction and not by the arbitrator.

The Federal Arbitration Act governs the arbitration requirements and provisions herein. The arbitrator’s award will be binding and final upon both TeamStake and you, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA; provided however, a written notice of appeal must be delivered within 30 days after the issuance of an award by the arbitrator to the arbitrator organization and all parties to the arbitration. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
