Prizes and claiming

The split

By default, the top 30% of teams share 95% of the entry fees. League.fun keeps a 5% protocol fee — see Fees for where that fee goes.

An admin or a private-league creator can instead pay up to 100 fixed places. The league shows the percentages before you join. A tie group shares the percentages of the places that it occupies. If fewer players finish than there are paid places, the filled places share the full pool in proportion.

The payout curve

Prize money inside the default top 30% is not split evenly. Payouts follow a curve that rewards higher ranks more: rank 1 earns a substantially larger share than rank 2, and so on down the list. Every winner is still guaranteed to get at least their entry fee back.

The entry-fee minimum does not apply to a fixed split.

Claiming

When your league ends, you see your rank and your prize in the app. Claiming pays out on-chain, directly from the smart contract that held the prize pool — see On-chain and the Gateway.

One claim pays you everything a wallet is owed on one chain, across every league you've played there, not one league at a time. If you play on Base and on Solana, you claim once on each. To enter another league, you make a new join with a new payment; there's no separate "reinvest" step.
