Player safety

Responsible gaming

Our games are meant to be fun. Cash competitions in our Skillz-powered games are skill-based, but they still involve real money, so please play responsibly.

Who can play for cash

  • Cash competitions are for players 18 or older (or the age of majority where you live). Our real-money titles are rated 17+ on the App Store.
  • Cash play is not available in every US state or country. Eligibility and location checks are handled by Skillz.
  • Our Privacy Policy states that our games are not intended for children under 18.

Tips for healthy play

  • Set a budget before you play and stick to it. Only use money you can afford to lose.
  • Set time limits and take regular breaks.
  • Never chase losses or play to solve money problems.
  • Free-entry matches are always available if you just want to play.

Limits and self-exclusion

Deposit limits, account pauses, and self-exclusion for cash play are managed through your Skillz account. Open the Skillz menu in the game to set them or to contact Skillz support.
