FAQ
Questions from the rail.
GhostSweat is a sweepstakes fantasy layer on top of live poker streams. You are the Ghost.
You Sweat the action. You collect Souls from fixed prize tables. Here’s how it all fits
together.
Is GhostSweat gambling?
No. GhostSweat is designed as a sweepstakes-based fantasy experience built on top of live
poker streams. You use non-redeemable Sweat to enter contests and build
lineups. Souls are awarded as sweepstakes prizes from fixed, pre-posted
prize tables according to the Official Rules. There are no wagers placed on the outcome of
a specific hand, pot, or match.
What are Souls and how do they work?
Souls are sweepstakes prize currency you can earn by finishing high on GhostSweat
leaderboards, via Vaults, or through random drawings. In the lore, Souls are poker
degenerates stuck in the Echos, still Sweating the action even in death. In the product,
Souls are redeemable prizes as described in the Official Rules and may be shown at a
defined redemption value (for example, 5 Souls = $1.00) where permitted
and after successful verification.
What is Sweat?
Sweat is non-redeemable play currency. You use Sweat to enter GhostSweat contests and build
lineups around live poker streams. Sweat can be granted for free through sign-up bonuses,
missions, and promotions, or optionally purchased in Sweat packs. Sweat has no cash value
and cannot be withdrawn, transferred, or redeemed.
What does it mean that “users are the Ghost”?
In the GhostSweat universe, you play as a Ghost haunting live poker from the Echos—the
invisible ghost layer around the game. The pros at the table have no idea you’re there.
Your Sweat collides with real-world Variance to crack Shards and reveal Souls, but nothing
you do ever changes the cards, pots, or payouts in the poker game itself.
How are contests scored?
GhostSweat uses a fantasy scoring engine that converts events from live poker streams into
points. Big pots, showdowns, and hero calls are worth more than small, uneventful hands.
You pick players and a Captain from the table, and their combined performance drives your
score. Placement on the leaderboard determines how many Souls you can earn from the posted
prize table. Full scoring details are available on the
Contest Mechanics page.
Can I play for free?
Yes. GhostSweat is built with free methods of entry, including free Sweat grants and an
Alternate Method of Entry (AMOE) for sweepstakes drawings where required. No purchase is
ever necessary to participate or to win Souls. See the
Official Rules for complete details.
Where is GhostSweat available?
Availability depends on your location and local sweepstakes rules. Some regions may be
restricted or fully prohibited. When you attempt to join a contest, the app will check your
eligibility and let you know if you can play from your current jurisdiction.
Who should I contact with questions?
For support, prize questions, or legal inquiries, you’ll be able to reach the team at a
dedicated support address inside the app or on this site once GhostSweat is live. Until
then, all pages and examples are visual demos only and do not represent an active
promotion.
