Game start fee

Games played in chats and chat rooms have a small start fee.

Who pays, and how much?

• The person who starts the game pays 1 coin: the one who sends the invite in a chat game, or the one who sets up a room game.
• People who accept the invite or join later don't pay.
• Games are free for Premium, Elite and Elite+ subscribers.
• Games started from the website are free.

Refunds

• The fee isn't refunded if the invite is declined, expires or the game is left unfinished.
• The one exception: if a technical problem stops the game from starting at all, the fee is returned automatically and you'll see a row saying the game couldn't start and the fee was refunded.

Good to know

• Games aren't gambling: the winner receives no coins or other prize, and the fee isn't paid to anyone as earnings.
• If your balance is too low, the game screen offers Go to wallet so you can buy coins or earn some with ads.
• Chat cards like the Question Game, Sealed Envelope and duels are free.
