Effective: [Effective Date TBD]
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of FundedForecast(the "Service"), operated by [Company Name TBD]("we", "us", or "our"). By creating an account, purchasing a challenge, or otherwise using the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.
To use the Service you must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding contract in your jurisdiction. The Service is not available to residents of jurisdictions where prediction markets, derivatives, or related financial activities are restricted or prohibited. A list of restricted jurisdictions is [TBD] and will be published prior to public launch. You are solely responsible for verifying that your use of the Service is lawful where you reside.
You must register an account using a valid email address and a password of sufficient strength. Passwords are stored only in hashed form (bcrypt) and we never see your plaintext password. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity occurring under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at support@[domain-tbd] if you suspect unauthorized access. We may suspend or terminate accounts that show signs of compromise, abuse, or violation of these Terms.
One person may hold only one account. Creating multiple accounts, sharing accounts, or registering on behalf of another person is prohibited.
FundedForecastoffers paid evaluation programs ("Challenges") in which users take simulated or real positions on event outcomes sourced from Polymarket prediction markets. Users who meet defined performance thresholds within a Challenge may qualify for a funded account on terms published separately. The Service is provided through the website at [final-domain.tbd] and any associated subdomains.
We do not act as a broker, dealer, exchange, or investment adviser. Trade execution against prediction-market outcomes is performed through Polymarket; we do not custody user funds for trading and do not guarantee the availability, pricing, or settlement of any Polymarket market.
Trading on prediction markets carries substantial risk, including the risk of losing the entire amount you paid for a Challenge. Outcomes of prediction markets are uncertain by nature and may resolve in ways that are unfavorable to your positions. Past performance — yours or anyone else's — does not predict future results.
The Service does not provide investment, financial, legal, or tax advice. Nothing on the platform constitutes a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any asset or take any position. You are responsible for your own decisions and should consult qualified professionals before participating.
Crypto payments and crypto-denominated payouts are subject to additional risks including price volatility, network congestion, irreversible transactions, and the risk of sending funds to an incorrect address.
Challenge purchases are processed exclusively through NowPayments in supported cryptocurrencies. We do not accept fiat payments at this time. Prices may be displayed in USD for reference but are settled in crypto at the rate quoted at checkout.
You are responsible for any network fees, exchange spreads, or third-party charges incurred when funding a payment. A purchase is considered complete only when the corresponding on-chain transaction has reached the confirmation threshold required by NowPayments.
Challenge purchases are generally non-refundable once the Challenge has been activated, given that activation provides immediate access to a digital service. Refunds may be granted on a case-by-case basis where (a) the Challenge has not been activated, (b) a duplicate or technical-error charge occurred, or (c) we are required by applicable law to issue a refund.
Where a refund is issued in crypto, the amount refunded will be based on the original crypto amount received, not on subsequent fiat-equivalent value. We do not bear responsibility for fluctuations between the time of purchase and the time of refund.
Eligible users may apply to the Affiliate Program. Acceptance is at our sole discretion. Affiliates receive a unique referral link of the form [final-domain.tbd]/r/{refCode} and earn a commission on the first qualifying purchase by each referred user.
Commission rates range between 10% and 25% of the first qualifying purchase, depending on tier and program parameters published in the affiliate cabinet. Earned commissions are subject to a default hold period of 30 days from the referred purchase before becoming eligible for payout. We may extend hold periods in cases of suspected fraud, chargeback risk, or pending review.
Payouts are made in supported cryptocurrencies (currently USDT on TRC20/ERC20 and USDC on ERC20/Polygon) to a wallet address provided by the affiliate. The affiliate is solely responsible for the accuracy of the wallet address. Payouts sent to an incorrect address cannot be recovered.
We may suspend, ban, reject, fail, or claw back commissions, in whole or in part, including but not limited to the following cases: self-referral; same-IP correlation between affiliate and referred user; fake or incentivized traffic; coordinated multi-accounting; chargebacks or refunds on the underlying purchase; violation of these Terms; or any conduct we reasonably believe to be fraudulent or abusive. If a referred purchase is refunded after the corresponding commission was paid, we reserve the right to recover the paid amount by deducting it from future commissions or by direct invoice.
You agree not to:
All content, software, designs, trademarks, and other materials comprising the Service are owned by [Company Name TBD] or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for its intended purpose. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from any part of the Service without our prior written consent.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any breach of these Terms, suspected fraud, legal compliance reasons, or operational necessity. You may terminate your account at any time by contacting support@[domain-tbd]. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including risk disclosures, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law — will survive.
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, uninterrupted availability, or freedom from errors. We do not warrant that any Challenge can be passed, that markets will be available, or that outcomes will match expectations.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, [Company Name TBD], its affiliates, officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with the Service. Our aggregate liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or the Service will not exceed the total amount you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless [Company Name TBD] and its affiliates from any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Service, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via the Service or by email. The updated Terms take effect on the date stated at the top of the document. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [Jurisdiction TBD], without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising under or in connection with these Terms will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of [Jurisdiction TBD], unless mandatory consumer-protection rules of your country of residence provide otherwise.
For questions about these Terms, write to legal@[domain-tbd]. For general support inquiries, write to support@[domain-tbd]. Postal address: [Registered Address TBD]. Company registration: [Company Registration Number TBD].
