Legal

Terms of Service

Effective October 3, 2026. These terms cover the Nosebleed Sports website and the Nosebleed Sports iOS app once it launches, both operated by Nosebleed Sports LLC.

The one line that matters most

We publish information and we run simulated games. We never take, place, broker, or route a real-money wager, and we never hold your betting money.

Nosebleed Sports is not a sportsbook, not a betting exchange, and not an agent for one. When you see a line, a price, or a pick on this site, you are reading our analysis of a number that a licensed sportsbook posted somewhere else. If you decide to act on it, you do that yourself, at a licensed operator, under that operator's rules and your own state's laws. Nothing you do here moves real money onto a game.

Agreeing to these terms

By making an account, buying a pass, or using the site or app, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the product. If you are using Nosebleed Sports for a company, you are telling us you are allowed to sign for that company.

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or use Nosebleed Sports. Premium (paid) features, including picks, Premium Discord and newsletters, are for people 21 and older, and you confirm you are 21 or older the first time you open one and before you buy a pass. Nosebleed Sports is built for adults and is not directed at children.

Most US states set 21 as the minimum age to place a real-money sports bet, and a few set it lower. That limit is set by your state and enforced by the sportsbook, not by us. An account here is not permission to bet anywhere.

Your account

Accounts and sign-in are handled by Clerk, our identity provider. You give an email address and pick a handle. You are responsible for keeping your login safe and for everything done under your account. Do not share it, and do not let someone else use your pass.

One person, one account. Tell us at support@nosebleedsportsmedia.com if you think someone else is in your account.

You can close your account whenever you want, from your account page on the website or from More > Settings > Delete account in the app. Your account closes the same day and pass access ends immediately, and we do not refund the unused part. We delete your personal data within 30 days and keep purchase records for 7 years for tax and accounting; the Privacy Policy has the detail.

We can close or suspend an account that breaks these terms, and we will tell you why unless telling you would help someone commit fraud. We can also stop selling a product, or stop running the service altogether; if we do that while you hold time you paid for, we refund the unused part.

Passes: what you are buying

A pass is a time-limited right to read our paid content. It is not a share of anything, it is not a guarantee of a result, and it does not buy you a bet.

The Nosebleed Premium Pass, $29.99A subscription. It renews until you cancel. Whop sets the billing period and the renewal date; both are on your receipt.
Network Takeover, $249.99A single payment for one promotion run across the Nosebleed accounts. It is not a subscription and it unlocks no picks. See “The Network Takeover” below for what we owe you and what we need from you.
Nosebleed Access, freeNo payment. Free feed, teasers, scores, odds board, the free Arcade games, the simulator and the community.

The Premium Pass includes the paid picks, the locked Arcade games, the premium Discord channels, the gameshow streams, and two weekly newsletters. Buying it turns both newsletters on; you can turn either one off on your account page (or, once the iOS app launches, in the app), and doing so changes nothing else about the pass.

Payment and checkout run entirely through Whop, our payments provider. Your card details go to Whop and never reach our servers. Prices are in US dollars and do not include any tax your state adds.

Access starts when Whop tells us the purchase went through, usually within seconds. It ends when the pass expires, when you cancel and the paid period runs out, or when a refund or chargeback reverses the payment. A background job checks expiry on our side every 15 minutes, so access ends on time even if a message from Whop is late or lost.

How a subscription period is set. Whop runs the billing, not us. With every payment, Whop tells us the date and time your paid period ends, and that is the exact moment your access ends. When a renewal payment goes through, Whop sends a new end date and we move your access out to it. We do not calculate the length of a billing period ourselves, so the renewal date on your Whop receipt is the one that counts. It is also in your Whop account.

The reminder, and what it is not. Before a pass lapses we send a Discord message if you linked Discord, and, once the iOS app launches, a notification in the app. It is a courtesy rather than a condition of the sale. Your renewal date is on your Whop receipt whether or not the reminder reaches you.

Cancel a subscription from your Whop account at any time. Cancelling stops the next charge; it does not end the period you already paid for. What is and is not refundable is set out in the Refund Policy, which is part of these terms.

We can change prices. A price change never applies to a period you already paid for, and we will tell subscribers by email before their next renewal at the new price. If a founding or promotional price is offered, the price you were promised at signup is the price you keep for as long as you keep the pass.

The Network Takeover

The Network Takeover is a one-time purchase of promotion, not of content. It buys you one run across the Nosebleed accounts on X: every Nosebleed Sports account reposts, likes and comments on your X post. It grants no picks access, it is not a subscription, and it does not renew.

What we need from you. The checkout asks for your X handle, and we need the link to the X post you want pushed. You can give us the link afterwards on the takeover page. We cannot run a takeover without a valid handle and a live post, and the order sits open until we have both.

What we do not promise. We promise the posts go out. We do not promise any number of views, followers, clicks, sales, or any other result, because none of that is ours to control. Audience sizes we publish are a description of our accounts, not a forecast of your reach.

What we will not post. We can decline to run a takeover if the post breaks a platform's rules or the law, promotes an unlicensed sportsbook or gambling operator, targets anyone under 21, is hateful or harassing, or would put our accounts at risk. A takeover we decline is refunded in full; otherwise the Network Takeover is not refundable once purchased. You are responsible for your own post, including any disclosure a regulator or platform requires you to make.

Discord is optional

Linking a Discord account is optional and never required to buy a pass or to read anything you paid for. Linking asks Discord for your basic profile and for permission to add you to our server; we store your Discord user id and username so we know which account a role belongs to. A paid pass adds a members role, and losing the pass removes it. You keep your free community access either way, and you can unlink at any time.

One Discord account per Nosebleed account. Discord has its own terms and its own rules, and ours apply in our server on top of them: no reposting paid picks, no harassment, no spam, no impersonating staff, no scams, no links to unlicensed operators. We can remove you from the server, and we can close your account, for breaking either set.

The simulator is a game, not a bet

The in-app bet tracker is a scoring game played in units. A unit is a made-up scorekeeping token with no cash value: you cannot buy units, you cannot deposit money for them, you cannot cash them out, and they are never redeemable for anything.

Everyone gets the same allowance: 5 units a day, staked between 0.5 and 3 units per pick, in half-unit steps, with no rollover to tomorrow. Leaderboards rank the score, and the score is bragging rights. There is no prize pool, no entry fee, and no payout.

We settle a simulated bet from the same public score and odds data the rest of the product runs on. A provider can be wrong or late, so we can correct a settlement, void a pick that should never have been offered, and adjust a record or a leaderboard when we do. We will not adjust one because you disagree with the result.

XP, ranks and leaderboards

Playing earns XP. XP comes from activity, not from what you staked or what you won: a settled simulated bet earns XP, a daily Arcade finish earns XP up to a daily cap, doing both on the same day earns a small bonus, and a full week of active days earns another. XP moves you up ten ranks and then into prestige levels.

XP, ranks, prestige and leaderboard position are scorekeeping. They carry no cash value, they cannot be bought, sold, transferred or cashed out, and they are not a prize.

What other members can see. Leaderboards show your handle, your won-lost-push record, your win percentage, your rank and your prestige. They do not show your units, your stakes, your profit or loss, your email address or your real name. Leaderboards are visible to signed-in members only. If you do not want to appear on one, do not set a handle: a handle is what puts you on the board.

We can remove entries, reset a score, or close an account for cheating: scripting or automating play, running several accounts, exploiting a bug rather than reporting it, or manipulating a leaderboard in any other way.

The Arcade

The Arcade is a set of free daily games plus some that need a pass. Trivia, Higher or Lower, and the other free games are open to any account; Career Path, Guess the Player and Career Arc need the Premium Pass. Which games are locked can change, and a change never takes back time you already paid for.

Games have one daily attempt each, scored on our clock in Eastern time. They keep a score and nothing more. Nothing in the Arcade touches the published picks record, and nothing in it is a wager.

Picks, odds, and what they are worth

Our picks are opinion and analysis published for information and entertainment. They are not betting advice, financial advice, or investment advice, and we are not licensed to give any of those. Nobody at Nosebleed Sports knows what a game will do.

Past results do not predict future results. A record we publish describes days that already happened. It is not a forecast, and it is not a promise about tomorrow.

Odds and lines come from third-party data providers who collect them from sportsbooks. Numbers move, sometimes in seconds, and a provider can be wrong, late, or briefly down. Always check the live number at the book before you act on anything. We do not guarantee that any price you see here is still available anywhere.

Where our data comes from

Scores, odds, statistics, standings, injuries, news and weather come from outside providers, including BallDontLie, ESPN, Sportskeeda, nflverse, Sleeper and Open-Meteo. We present and analyse that data; we do not resell it, and we do not claim to own it.

Some of our fantasy football data is built from nflverse, used under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence.

League names, team names, and player names appear because we are reporting on them. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any league, team, sportsbook or data provider.

How you may use the product

Use it like a normal person reading a sports site. Specifically, do not:

  • Republish, resell, screenshot-for-distribution, or forward our paid picks to people who did not pay. The picks are the product; giving them away is theft of it.
  • Share a login, or use one pass to serve several people.
  • Scrape, crawl, or automate access to paid pages, or try to get past the paywall or any rate limit.
  • Break the site, probe it for holes, or interfere with anyone else using it.
  • Pretend to be us, or suggest we endorse you when we do not.
  • Use the product where sports betting content is illegal where you live.

Breaking these rules ends your access, and we do not owe a refund for a pass we ended for cause.

Our content and your content

Everything we publish, including picks, writeups, our data presentation, the name Nosebleed Sports and our logos, belongs to Nosebleed Sports LLC or the people we license it from. Buying a pass gives you a personal, non-transferable licence to read it while the pass is live. It does not transfer ownership of anything.

If you post something in our community, submit a post for a takeover, or send us a comment, you keep it, and you give us permission to display and use it in running and promoting the product. Do not post anything you do not have the right to post.

Your handle. Your handle is public to other members. Do not pick one that impersonates somebody, harasses anybody, is somebody else's trademark, or would embarrass a reasonable person on a leaderboard. We can take a handle back and make you choose another. The same goes for group names.

Reporting and blocking. In the app you can report another member's handle or a group's name, and you can block a member so you no longer see them on your boards, feeds and groups and they cannot send you a friend request. Our team reviews every report within 24 hours.

Copyright complaints

If you believe something on Nosebleed Sports uses your copyrighted work without permission, tell us and we will act on it. Send your notice to our designated agent, named on our DMCA Policy page. Include what was copied, where it is on our site or in our app, how to reach you, and a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not allowed. That page also sets out the full notice and counter-notice process.

We remove or block material when a valid notice arrives, we tell the member who posted it, and we close the accounts of people who keep doing it.

Disclaimer of warranties

Plain English: we work hard to keep this accurate and online, but we are not promising it is perfect or never breaks. Use it knowing that.

The product is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the product will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any pick, odd, score, or record will be accurate, complete, or profitable.

Some states do not allow these disclaimers. If yours does not, this section applies to you only as far as your state allows.

Limitation of liability

Plain English: if something goes wrong, the most we owe you is what you paid us in the last year. We do not cover money you lost betting somewhere else.

To the fullest extent the law allows, Nosebleed Sports LLC and its owners, staff, and contractors are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or lost betting stakes, however caused, even if we were told the risk existed.

Our total liability to you for any claim connected to the product is capped at the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or one hundred US dollars.

This includes money you lose betting at a sportsbook. Those losses are not our responsibility. You chose the bet, you placed it, and the operator took it.

Indemnity

If someone sues us because of what you did with the product, in particular reselling our picks, posting something you did not have the right to post, or using the product where it is not legal, you agree to cover our costs of dealing with it.

Arbitration and class action waiver

Plain English summary. If we have a fight we cannot settle by email, we each take it to a private arbitrator instead of a court, one on one, and not as part of a group lawsuit. You keep the right to take a small claim to small claims court. And you can opt out of this whole section within 30 days of agreeing to it by sending us one email. Opting out costs you nothing and does not affect your account.

What arbitration means: a private decision-maker, called an arbitrator, hears both sides and issues a binding ruling, instead of a judge and jury doing it in public court.

Talk first. Before starting arbitration, email support@nosebleedsportsmedia.com with a short description of the problem and what you want. Most things end here. Give us 60 days to sort it out.

Agreement to arbitrate. If it does not get sorted, you and Nosebleed Sports LLC agree that any dispute connected to these terms or the product will be settled by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. Arbitration happens in Nassau County, New York, or by phone or video if you prefer, and the arbitrator can award whatever a court could award you individually.

Class action waiver. You and Nosebleed Sports LLC each agree to bring claims only individually, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not combine more than one person's claims. If this waiver is found unenforceable for a particular claim, that claim goes to court and the rest of this section still applies to everything else.

Small claims carve-out. Either of us can bring a qualifying claim in small claims court instead. Either of us can also go to court for an injunction to stop misuse of our intellectual property.

How to opt out. Email support@nosebleedsportsmedia.com with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" and your account email, within 30 days of first agreeing to these terms. That is all it takes. If you opt out, disputes go to the courts named below.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of New York, without applying that state's conflict-of-laws rules. Where a dispute is not covered by the arbitration section above, it belongs to the state or federal courts sitting in Nassau County, New York, and we both agree to that.

Once the iOS app launches: if you get it from Apple

These terms are between you and Nosebleed Sports LLC. Apple is not a party to them. Apple has no obligation to provide support for the app and is not responsible for any claim about it, including product liability, a failure to meet a legal requirement, or a claim that the app infringes someone's rights. Apple and its subsidiaries can enforce these terms against you as a third-party beneficiary. Your use of the app must also follow the App Store Terms of Service.

Changes to these terms

We can update these terms. When we do, we post the new version on this page and put a new effective date at the top. If the change is material, we will also show a notice in the app once the iOS app launches, so you see it without going looking.

Carrying on using the product after the effective date means you accept the new version. If you do not, close your account.

The rest of it

If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest still stands. If we do not enforce something once, we have not given up the right to enforce it later. You cannot transfer your account or these terms to someone else; we can transfer them if the business is sold. These terms, plus the Privacy Policy, the Refund Policy and the Cookie Policy, are the whole agreement between us.
