1. Agreement
By creating an account or using Build-A-Bookie (the website at build-a-bookie.com, the mobile app, and Stats Quo), you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the product.
2. What we are (and are not)
Build-A-Bookie is a social product for friend groups and leagues. Fake money only. No real money, no wagering. Every player in a book starts with a fake $1,000. Bankrolls, lines and winnings inside a book are fake dollars: they have no cash value, can't be bought, withdrawn or traded, and are never redeemable for money, crypto or prizes through us.
We do not operate a real-money sportsbook, casino, or fantasy contest with entry fees. See Why there's no real money.
3. Accounts
You must provide accurate account information and keep credentials secure. You are responsible for activity under your account. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or harm other users.
You must be old enough to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction and meet any minimum age we publish for the product (generally 18+ where required).
4. Books and picks
Book creators and managers can invite players, set rosters, schedule games and post props. Players pick props with their fake bankroll. When scores are entered, picks settle automatically from those scores and the props as written.
Whoever runs a book is responsible for entering fair, accurate scores. Running a book, however large, never creates a real-money pool, escrow or duty over anyone's cash.
5. Stats Quo for venues
Players use Build-A-Bookie and their Stats Quo record free. Golf courses, bowling alleys and other venues can subscribe to Stats Quo league tools monthly or yearly. Plans renew until cancelled, and you can cancel anytime; access runs through the end of the paid period. A venue plan never adds to, buys or pays out any player's bankroll.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use books, picks or bankrolls to run real-money betting, on or off the product
- Harass, abuse, or impersonate others
- Scrape, reverse engineer, or attack our systems
- Upload unlawful content or malware
- Present fake bankrolls as cash, prizes or investment returns
7. Intellectual property
Build-A-Bookie, branding, software, and site content are owned by us or our licensors. You retain rights to content you submit (names, messages you choose to share) and grant us a license to host and display it as needed to run the product, including scores and stats shown on a player's record or a public league page.
8. Privacy
How we handle data is described in our Privacy Policy. The website uses a secure session cookie after you sign in; the app keeps you signed in on your device.
9. Disclaimers
The product is provided "as is." We do not warrant uninterrupted service, that scores entered by others are correct, or that settled picks will match every informal agreement among friends. We are not liable for offline arrangements involving real money.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Build-A-Bookie and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill arising from use of the product. Our aggregate liability for claims relating to the product will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (USD $100) or the amount you paid us (if any) in the prior twelve months. For players, that amount is zero.
11. Termination
You may stop using the product at any time. We may suspend or end access for Terms violations, risk to the community, or product shutdown. Provisions that should survive (IP, disclaimers, liability limits) survive termination.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, excluding conflict-of-law rules, unless mandatory local consumer law says otherwise. Venue for disputes lies in courts located in North Carolina where permitted.
13. Changes
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date on this page. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
