Terms & Conditions

1. Acceptance of Terms

By registering an account or using any part of the VimBet platform (“Platform”), you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions (“Terms”). If you do not agree, you must not use the Platform. VimBet is operated by VimBet Ltd, a company registered in Ghana under the Registrar General’s Department as a Digital Media / IT Software Services / Sports Marketing Content provider.

2. Nature of Service

VimBet is a subscription-based sports media and analytics service. Members pay a flat monthly or weekly membership fee in exchange for access to football analytics, match predictions, head-to-head data, injury alerts, and a members-only community forum.

The weekly prediction leaderboard (“Weekend Challenge”) is a complimentary promotional competition provided as a perk of active membership — not a gambling activity. No real-money stakes are wagered. Prizes are funded entirely from subscription revenue under the 80/10/10 budget allocation model and are classified as promotional competition prizes under Ghanaian law.

By checking the agreement box at registration, you confirm:

“I verify that I am 18 years of age or older. I understand that VimBet is a premium sports media, data analytics, and community subscription service. The weekly prediction leaderboards are strictly complimentary, non-wagering promotional perks provided to members for entertainment purposes. No real-money gambling stakes are hosted or accepted on this platform.”

3. Eligibility

• You must be at least 18 years of age to register.
• You must be located in a jurisdiction where sports media subscriptions are lawful.
• One account per person is permitted. Duplicate accounts will be suspended.
• You must provide accurate and truthful registration information.

4. Membership & Subscription

• Monthly Club — GH¢40/month: Grants access to 4 weekend prediction contests, full analytics dashboard, SMS match alerts, community forum, and referral earnings.
• Weekly Pass — GH¢12/week: Grants access to 1 weekend prediction contest and basic match analytics.
• A Paystack processing fee (1.5% + GH¢0.50) is passed transparently to the member at checkout. VimBet receives exactly the advertised membership amount with no silent deductions.

5. Weekend Prediction Challenge

• Active members may submit predictions (Home Win / Draw / Away Win) for 15 curated weekend fixtures selected by the VimBet editorial team each Tuesday.
• Predictions lock automatically at the kickoff of the first fixture. No changes are permitted after submission.
• In the event that two or more members achieve identical scores, the member who submitted earliest — as recorded by the VimBet server — is awarded the higher leaderboard position. Submission timestamps are permanent and non-disputable.
• All results are derived from official football data APIs. VimBet’s settlement decision is final.
• In the event of a match postponement or abandonment, VimBet reserves the right to void that fixture and re-settle accordingly.
• Weekly prizes are funded exclusively from that week’s subscription revenue. Prize pool size scales with active membership. VimBet does not fund prizes from capital or savings reserves.

6. Prize Payouts

8. Referral Programme

Commission is credited only after the referred member has maintained an active subscription for 7 days (anti-fraud hold). Recurring monthly commissions are paid only for referred members who remain active that month.

VimBet reserves the right to cancel, modify, or suspend referral rewards if we determine fraud, self-referral, or violation of these Terms. Anti-fraud measures include: unique phone number verification, device fingerprinting, IP cross-checking, and batch payout processing with 48-hour reversal window.

• Subscription payments are debited via Mobile Money (MTN · Telecel · AirtelTigo).
• Prize and referral commissions are paid via Paystack bulk MoMo transfer to your registered phone number.
• VimBet reserves the right to request identity verification before releasing any prize payment.
