function

Each syndicate creates its own betting game and defines its own rules for it or accepts the suggestions from Kicktipp. The individually configured betting games allow your own point or quota rules and the points are calculated automatically. Up to 300 tipsters can take part in a prediction game designed in this way. The game evaluations take place live and in real time. Kicktipp is mobile and can also be operated with tablets and smartphones. Registered users can be active in a maximum of 100 prediction games. There are separate apps for iOS and Android.

On January 18, 2013, the daily Die Welt dealt with the question of why unsuspecting people win away while typing and came to the conclusion that the outcome of a soccer game is up to 86 percent coincidental and only 14 percent a result of the performance of the two teams. The article also cites Kicktipp with the statement that good tipsters predict game tendencies, i.e. home win, draw or away win, 50 percent correctly and less experienced tipsters have a 40 percent hit rate.
