What Are Power Plays?

If you’re looking for a higher-risk, higher-reward play, look no further than Power Plays. You pick 2 or more player squares, and if they all win, you get a huge payout! But if even one loses, the entire entry loses. 

If any pick in a Power Play is ruled a DNP (Did Not Play) or ties the projection, the entry reverts down to the next payout. For example, a 4-Pick Power with a DNP or tie becomes a 3-Pick Power.

The payouts for Power Plays are:


4-Pick Power Play

4/4 =10X

EX. A $10 winning 4-Pick Power pays $100 total.

3-Pick Power Play

3/3 = 5X

EX. A $10 winning 3-Pick Power pays $50 total.

2-Pick Power Plays

2/2 = 3X

EX. A $10 2-Pick Power pays $30 total. 

What Are Flex Plays?

Flex Plays are the safest way to play PrizePicks! You can still make a profit or win some money back even if a couple of your picks don’t hit. 

When new members first start playing PrizePicks, it’s recommended that they start with Flex Plays to build both their confidence and their bankroll. But just because Flex Plays are safer doesn’t mean you can’t win BIG with them. You can still 25X your cash with Flex Plays!

The payouts for Flex Plays are:

6-Pick Flex Play (Brand New!)

6/6 = 25X

5/6 =2X

What is the 6-Pick Flex on PrizePicks?

The 6-Pick Flex Play, PrizePicks' most difficult yet high-reward option, is a brand new feature intended to give our members higher payout potential. Formerly, the 5-pick flex was the option biggest payout (10X) but now, members can compete for 25X their cash!

To win, you have to select 6 players from any sport, select more or less on their stat projections, and pick them all correctly. If you win, you get 25X your money. A $100 winning entry on a 6-Pick Flex Play would payout $2500 total. Even if you get one wrong, you can still win 2X your cash, or .4X your cash if you lose two squares!
