Fundraising

Raise funds with paid gaming competitions

Paid entries work when players feel the game is fair and fun. Compact Games gives you tickets, game-passes and on-chain splits, so each competition can fund your treasury and its own prize pool.

How it works in one paragraph

Compact Games lets hosts sell tickets (one attempt each) or game-passes (unlimited attempts during the competition). Revenue is split on-chain between creator revenue, the prize pool and optional token burns. The platform takes 5% of paid access only, or 2% for hosts holding a Compact Games NFT.

The problem it solves

  • Donations and mint-only revenue are one-off.
  • Prize pools funded only by the team are hard to sustain.

Set it up in 3 steps

  1. Pick an access model

    Tickets for high-replay grinding, game-passes for committed players and seasons.

  2. Set revenue splits

    Decide how much goes to your treasury, to the prize pool and to burns.

  3. Publish clear rules

    Prize rules and prices are shown before anyone pays.

Questions

What is the difference between tickets and game-passes?

A ticket is one play attempt. A game-pass gives unlimited attempts for the whole competition.

Are paid competitions legal everywhere?

Rules for paid prize competitions vary by country. Skill-based formats are treated differently from games of chance in many places, but check what applies to you before running one.
