How it works
Zavora Markets is a free daily prediction game about pop culture and internet moments. Every morning we open a handful of yes-or-no questions, will a celebrity post the thing, will the meme survive the week, will it rain on the parade. You pick a side, the crowd sets the odds, and when the answer lands, the winning side splits the pot.
A prediction game, not a sportsbook
Every market is a plain-English question with a resolution rule written before it opens, the exact, unambiguous condition that decides YES or NO, with evidence linked when it settles. No judgment calls, no fine-print surprises.
We deliberately stick to pop culture, internet chaos, and weather. No sports. No politics. It's entertainment about entertainment.
Two coins, two very different jobs
Gold Coins (GC) are play money. You get 10,000 free at signup, you can win more by calling markets right, and they are never redeemable for anything. They exist purely for fun and bragging rights.
Sweeps Coins (SC) are the promotional sweepstakes currency. They are always free to obtain, free at signup, free with promotions, free by mail-in request, and they're the only currency that can ever be redeemed for prizes. You can never buy Sweeps Coins.
Gold Coin pools and Sweeps Coin pools never mix. A GC entry wins GC; an SC entry wins SC.
Pari-mutuel pools, the crowd IS the odds
There's no house line and no bookmaker. Everyone's stake on a question goes into a shared pool per side. The live percentages you see are simply where the crowd's coins sit right now.
When a market resolves, the winning side splits the whole pot pro-rata to their stakes (minus a small rake that keeps the lights on). If a market can't be resolved fairly, it voids and every stake is refunded automatically.
The daily rhythm
Markets open in the morning, lock at their posted time (no late entries, the lock is enforced by the database, not the honor system), and resolve with evidence by the next day. Anything left unresolved past its deadline auto-voids and refunds. Your coins never get stuck.
Always free to play
No purchase is ever necessary to play or to win. Sweeps Coins are free to obtain, and a purchase of Gold Coins never improves your odds on anything. Zavora Markets is open to eligible players 18 and older; void where prohibited.
How you cash out
Sweeps Coins convert to cash at 100 SC = $1.00, starting at 5,000 SC ($50). Request a redemption right from your wallet, verify your identity once (your name, age, and address), and we send your money. Every redemption shows its live status in your wallet, and rejected requests return your SC instantly.
Questions people actually ask
Is Zavora Markets gambling?
No. Zavora Markets is a sweepstakes-model prediction game. Gold Coins are entertainment-only and can never be cashed out. Sweeps Coins, the only redeemable currency, are always free to obtain and can never be purchased. No purchase is necessary to play or win.
Do I have to buy anything to play?
No. Every new account starts with 10,000 free Gold Coins and 20 free Sweeps Coins, and there are always free ways to get more. No purchase necessary, ever.
How are the odds set?
By the crowd. Pools are pari-mutuel: the percentages shown are the live share of coins staked on each side, and winners split the pot pro-rata when the market resolves.
How do questions get decided?
Every market has a resolution rule written before it opens, the exact public, checkable condition that decides YES or NO. When it settles, the result is posted with the evidence.
What kind of questions do you run?
Pop culture, internet moments, and weather, the stuff group chats argue about. Deliberately no sports and no politics.
What happens if a market can't be resolved?
It voids and every stake is refunded automatically, including any market left unresolved 24 hours past its deadline. Coins never get stuck.
