1. Who we are
FPL Kitty is a software platform that lets organisers create, run and administer their own Fantasy Premier League (“FPL”) competitions.
FPL Kitty is operated by Xylos Digital Inc., a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware, United States, with its registered office at c/o Legalinc Corporate Services Inc., 131 Continental Dr, Suite 305, Newark, DE 19713, US (“Xylos”, “we”, “us”, “our”). References to “FPL Kitty” in these Terms mean the platform operated by Xylos Digital Inc.
In these Terms:
- “Organiser” means a user who creates, manages or promotes a competition using the platform.
- “Participant” or “Manager” means a person who joins a competition run by an Organiser.
- “Service” means the FPL Kitty websites, applications, APIs and related services.
- “you” means the individual or organisation using the Service.
2. Agreement to these Terms
By creating an account, accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Notice. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you accept these Terms on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to bind that organisation.
Our Competition Rules / Organiser Policy and our Referral Program Terms are incorporated into these Terms by reference.
3. What FPL Kitty is — and what it is not
FPL Kitty provides the administrative infrastructure that makes organised FPL competitions practical. Running a prize-backed FPL competition involves a significant amount of manual work and trust: tracking who has paid, keeping live standings accurate across dozens of gameweeks, recording prize declarations so Participants can see what they are playing for, and maintaining an auditable record of results and payouts. FPL Kitty automates and centralises that administration so Organisers can focus on their community rather than on spreadsheets.
Concretely, the platform provides: competition setup and configuration, automated scoring against official FPL data, live standings and leaderboards, membership and entry-status management, declared prize-structure disclosure, transparent payment-record tracking, and season-long record-keeping — the accountability, transparency and operational tooling that Organisers and Participants rely on.
FPL Kitty does not collect, hold, safeguard, control, escrow, distribute or guarantee any entry fee, prize fund, winnings or other Participant money. Where a competition involves entry fees or prizes, those arrangements are directly between the Organiser and that Organiser's Participants. Money moves between them, not through us. Where our software records or displays that a payment or prize has been made, that is a record entered or confirmed by the Organiser, not a payment made, verified financially, or guaranteed by us.
FPL Kitty is not a bank, wallet, escrow agent, money transmitter, payment intermediary, prize custodian, prize guarantor, betting operator, gambling operator or lottery operator, and does not provide any financial service.
4. Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. You must provide accurate registration information and keep it current. You are responsible for all activity under your account and for keeping your credentials secure; notify us promptly at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorised access.
The Service is offered where we make it available. Paid features and pricing are currently offered in Global (with initial primary operational focus on Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya). We may add, restrict or withdraw availability in any country at any time. You are responsible for complying with the laws that apply to you where you are.
You may not use the Service if you are located in, ordinarily resident in, or organised under the laws of a country or territory subject to comprehensive United States sanctions, or if you are a person with whom United States persons are prohibited from dealing.
Paid-entry competitions are strictly prohibited for users, Organisers, or Participants residing in US states where paid fantasy sports or skill contests are restricted or require local operator licensing, including but not limited to Arizona, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, and Washington. We may enforce this restriction using automated geo-blocking as described in the Competition Rules.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Service for any unlawful purpose, or to run or promote any competition that is unlawful where you or your Participants are located;
- operate any lottery, raffle, betting, wagering or gambling activity through the Service;
- misrepresent your identity, your authority, or the nature, prizes or funding of a competition;
- create multiple or fake accounts, manipulate scoring, collude, or otherwise undermine the fairness of a competition;
- upload unlawful, infringing, deceptive, abusive or harmful content;
- introduce malicious code, probe or breach security, scrape at scale, or interfere with the operation, integrity or availability of the Service;
- reverse engineer, resell, sublicense or commercially exploit the Service except as expressly permitted; or
- use the Service to collect or process another person's data other than as permitted by law and by our Privacy Notice.
We may investigate suspected breaches and may remove content, restrict features, suspend or terminate accounts, and report unlawful conduct to the authorities.
6. Organiser obligations
If you use the Service as an Organiser you are solely responsible for your competition, including its rules, format, eligibility criteria, entry fees, prizes, Participant communications, taxes and withholding, refunds, cancellations, complaints and disputes, and for compliance with every law that applies to you and your Participants.
You must satisfy yourself that your competition is lawful in every jurisdiction where you offer or promote it, before you publish or promote it. Prize competitions, skill contests, promotions and sweepstakes are regulated differently from country to country and, in the United States, from state to state. If a licence, permit, registration, bond or filing is required, obtaining and maintaining it is entirely your responsibility. If you are unsure, take your own legal advice.
You are responsible for any money you collect from, or owe to, your Participants. Xylos is not a party to that arrangement, does not receive that money, and will not fund, settle or adjudicate it. Full Organiser requirements are set out in the Competition Rules / Organiser Policy.
7. Fees for FPL Kitty's own services
We may charge you for our own products and services, which currently may include:
- Subscriptions to paid plans, billed on the cycle shown at checkout;
- Platform fees, including one-off charges such as sponsored-competition capacity unlocks; and
- Organiser royalties — charged as a baseline 5% platform software fee on paid competition tiers (or as explicitly displayed in-product during setup).
These are amounts payable by you to Xylos. They are separate from, and must never be confused with, entry fees or prizes exchanged between an Organiser and Participants. We do not receive, hold or disburse Participant entry fees or prize money.
All fees paid to Xylos are strictly B2B software fees for administrative platform access. Xylos does not deduct fees from pooled participant funds or handle user entry money.
Prices, currencies, billing cycles and any applicable taxes are those shown to you at the time of purchase or in your account, and may change on notice for future billing periods. Payments to us are processed by third-party payment processors — currently Korapay for users in Africa, and we expect to add Stripe as we expand to other regions — and are subject to their terms. We do not store your full card details.
Unless required by law or expressly stated at checkout, refunds are available for 7 days for unused software subscription tiers; fees are non-refundable once platform resources, competition creation, or sponsored-capacity unlocks have been consumed. You may cancel a subscription at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid period and access continues until then. Failed or reversed payments may result in suspension or downgrade of paid features.
Where a referral credit or promotional discount applies to your account, it is applied under the Referral Program Terms; credits have no cash value and are not transferable or redeemable for money.
8. Third-party services and FPL data
The Service depends on third parties, including cloud hosting, database and authentication providers, email delivery, analytics and payment processors. Their acts, omissions, availability, pricing and policies are outside our control, and your use of them may be governed by their own terms.
FPL Kitty is an independent platform. It is not affiliated with, endorsed, sponsored or approved by the Premier League, Fantasy Premier League, or any club or competition organiser. All club, league and competition names and marks belong to their respective owners.
Scoring and standings depend on data published by the official FPL game and other third parties. That data may be delayed, changed retrospectively, incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable, and the FPL game's own rules, deadlines, points corrections and season structure may change without notice. We do not guarantee the accuracy, timeliness or continued availability of that data, and we are not responsible for the effect of any data issue on a competition, its standings or its outcome. Organisers are responsible for how their competition handles such events.
9. Your content and our intellectual property
You keep ownership of the content you submit (competition details, branding, messages, uploads). You grant Xylos a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, adapt for display, and transmit that content solely to operate, secure, support and improve the Service, and to provide it to the users you direct it to. You confirm you have the rights needed to grant that licence.
The Service itself — software, design, database structure, and the FPL Kitty name and logo — is owned by Xylos or its licensors and protected by intellectual property law. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service under these Terms. You may not use our name or logo without our written permission.
If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to [email protected] with the information required under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. We may remove content and terminate repeat infringers.
10. Feedback
If you send us suggestions or feedback, we may use them without restriction or obligation to you.
11. Suspension, termination and account closure
You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access, in whole or in part, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms or the Competition Rules, if it is necessary to protect the Service, other users or third parties, or if required by law. Where practical and lawful we will give you notice and, where appropriate, an opportunity to correct the problem.
Suspension or termination of an Organiser's account does not relieve that Organiser of its obligations to its Participants, including any obligation to award or pay prizes. On termination, your right to use the Service ends; we may delete or retain data as described in the Privacy Notice. Clauses that by their nature survive termination (including fees owed, content licence, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity and dispute provisions) survive.
12. Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Xylos disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, error-free, or that data (including FPL data) will be accurate or available.
Xylos is not responsible for the conduct of any Organiser or Participant, for any competition run using the Service, for any entry fee, prize or other money exchanged between them, or for any failure by an Organiser to award or pay a prize.
13. Indemnity
You will indemnify and hold harmless Xylos, its officers, directors, employees and agents from any claim, loss, liability, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: your use of the Service; any competition you organise or take part in; your content; your breach of these Terms or the Competition Rules; or your violation of any law or third-party right.
14. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Xylos will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, goodwill, prizes or business opportunity, however caused and on any theory of liability.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Xylos's total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will not exceed the greater of (a) the total amounts you paid to Xylos for the Service in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, and (b) one hundred United States dollars (US$100).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud.
15. Changes to the Service and to these Terms
We may change, add to or discontinue parts of the Service. We may update these Terms; if the change is material we will take reasonable steps to notify you in advance, for example by in-product notice, email, or by posting the updated Terms with a new effective date. Changes apply from the date they take effect and your continued use after that date means you accept them. If you do not accept a change, stop using the Service and close your account.
16. Assignment, corporate changes and transfer of this agreement
You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. Xylos may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, to an affiliate, to a successor in interest, or in connection with a merger, reorganisation, financing, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets or of the FPL Kitty business, including a transfer to a subsidiary or affiliate established in another country to operate the Service in that market. Any such transferee will be bound by these Terms. We will give notice of any such transfer where notice is required by law, and your rights under applicable law will not be reduced by the transfer alone.
17. Governing law, binding arbitration, and class action waiver
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be settled by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. You and Xylos agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative proceeding. Mandatory local consumer protection rights under applicable laws in your jurisdiction of residence remain unaffected.
Before starting arbitration, please contact us at [email protected] so we can try to resolve the issue informally.
18. General
These Terms, together with the Privacy Notice, Competition Rules and Referral Program Terms, are the entire agreement between you and Xylos about the Service. If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest remains in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You and Xylos are independent contractors; nothing here creates a partnership, agency, joint venture or employment relationship. Notices to you may be given by email or in-product; notices to us must be sent to [email protected], or by post to our registered agent at Xylos Digital Inc., c/o Legalinc Corporate Services Inc., 131 Continental Dr, Suite 305, Newark, DE 19713, US.
