Platform Fee Information

MPL charges a Platform Fee from the User(s), for making available its e-platform where various games of skill & other content are available and providing the service to the Users to participate in those games of skill or consume the content as offered.
The Platform Fee for all the products/games is a fixed rake % of the Designated Amount and is between 0% and 33% and under extreme exceptional cases may go beyond this range.
MPL, in accordance with the Terms & Conditions of the Bonus Program, may give a Discount in the Platform Fee and thus the Designated Amount shall be accordingly recovered from the User’s Cash Balances.
This can be easily deduced from the Designated Amount and the total prize offered.
MPL Platform Fee is subject to change as per MPL policy without prior notice.
Platform Fee Examples
Fantasy Contests

For each user who joins a cash contest, MPL Platform Fee is calculated as (1- Total Cash prize offered/(open slots x Designated Amount)) * Designated Amount
If a contest allows a user to register multiple teams, then each team registered by the user is counted as a slot filled in the contest.
For example, in a 5 player contest with Designated Amount of रु100, and the total cash prizes on offer is रु450.
The MPL Platform Fee collected out of each user for each team he/she is registering with रु 100 will be equal to (1 – रु450/(रु100 x 5)) * रु100 = रु10
The same calculation applies to contests hosted by Users, Pooled contests or Non-Guaranteed contests.
Pooled contests = contests where the Total winnings on offer increases with the number of slots filled in the tournament. However, the Platform Fee on each team registration remains constant for any number of slots filled.
Non-Guaranteed contests = contests which get cancelled and all Designated Amounts paid shall be refunded if the minimum number of users required did not join the tournament

Points rummy

MPL Platform Fee for each table is equal to sum of Rake % * Points Given * point value of the table by each of the players barring the winner.

Rake % varies across points in rummy tables. It can be found when tapped on the info button at the top right of each table.

For example, in a 0.1 point value lobby with a rake % of 12%, in a round if 5 players were playing and one player won. Say each of the 4 players who lost gave 25 points each.

Then the total Platform Fee = 12% * 25*4 * 0.1 = RS.1.2

Pool Rummy

For example, in a pool rummy game of RS. 100 entry and 5 people have played it. Let’s say the Rake % for this table is 12%. Then in the current example, MPL Platform Fee will be calculated as 12%* 100*5 = Rs.60

The Rake % varies from table to table and from time to time. You can check the value by taking on the info icon at the top right of each table.

Rules for MPL Fantasy:

It is an online based fantasy sport which allows its Users to pick their team made up of real players participating in a real sporting competition. Users play MPL Fantasy by using their knowledge and skill of the underlying actual sport.

MPL Fantasy is an online fantasy sports contest in which Users are invited to pay money to play the game, thereby allowing Users access to build and act as owners of online teams (consisting of real players or teams) that compete against online teams of other Users with results tabulated on the basis of statistics generated by the real individual sportspersons in certain designated professional sporting matches.
Users can participate in a Contest with other Users without any restriction on participation, unless specified otherwise in the Rules or the Agreement. Users can participate by choosing any of the upcoming Contests which will be linked to any of the current or upcoming real-world events.
All Users while selecting a fantasy team (“Fantasy Team“) for any match are provided with the same budget. Any change in the budget shall be applied uniformly for all players. All Users must pick from the same list of players and are bound by the same rules while picking the composition of their respective teams. This means that all Users have the same maximum/minimum limits on the number of batsmen, bowlers, wicket-keeper and all-rounders, and limits are placed equally on the number of players that can be picked from a particular real-life team.
Users can make changes to their Fantasy Teams until the deadline of the registration for the Contest. Users can make a Fantasy Team, based on credits they select. Users can select a maximum of 7 players from one playing side team. Users can create up to a maximum of 6 unique teams for a single Contest.

MPL shall ensure that all Contests offered to the Users participating in MPL Super Team are competitive and incorporate principles of fair-play. MPL is committed to ensuring the utmost levels of fairness and competitiveness in its MPL Fantasy.
Rules for Fantasy Pro under MPL Fantasy:

Each User has the opportunity to get additional rewards over and above the Winnings in a particular Contest on the Platform (“Additional Winnings”) while participating in MPL Fantasy, by allowing players to create strong teams in a Contest and share them with other players participating in the same Contest. MPL Fantasy Pro, one of the integral parts of the MPL Fantasy ecosystem, is aimed at making the game more competitive by increasing opportunities for players to exercise their strategic prowess.
‘Fantasy Pro’ on MPL allows each User participating in a Contest to play with a Fantasy Team created by another player based on their knowledge and skill in MPL Fantasy (‘Additional Winnings’)’. This is as illustrated below:
1. Registration: Player A and Player B register for an India versus New Zealand football match (‘Contest’) by paying the MPL Platform fee. After successful registration, Player A creates their Fantasy Team to participate with in the Contest;
2. ‘Buy’*: In order to gain additional winnings, Player A (‘Proposer’*) decides to provide his/her Fantasy Team (‘TradedTeam / Trade’*) to be shared with any other participant in the Contest on receipt of some minimum Additional Winnings.
3. ‘Bid’*: Players registered in the Contest who strategize to participate in the Contest with Player A’s team (as Player A frequently features in leaderboards) offer Additional Winnings for Player A’s team. The highest Additional Winnings is offered by Player B, who is declared the new winner of Player A’s team. A Contender can edit or remove their offer of Additional Winnings prior to its acceptance by the Proposer. Player B’s prize offering becomes invalid when Player C offers to Player A a higher Additional Winnings amount than Player B.
4. ‘Sell’*: Player B (‘Contender’*) successfully copies Player A’s team after completing the payment of the offered Additional Winnings, after which the Traded Team is re-registered to Player B’s account.
5. Participation in the Contest: Player B can participate in the Contest with the team copied from Player A. Player A on being declared winner of the Additional Winnings, will exit the Contest with such Additional Winnings only.

* the terms are used for marketing purposes and to aid ease of understanding for the players. For legal purposes, Fantasy ProT does not result in transfer of digital assets or any monetary transaction between the players. Fantasy Pro is an additional in-game feature to enhance the competitive environment and allow players to demonstrate their strategic prowess.

Sharing window: Players can Propose or Copy Traded Team(s) only between the start and conclusion of the Contest. Sharing will be closed when the Contest moves to the ‘Results’ tab.
Platform Fee: For each Fantasy Pro transaction, MPL will charge a Platform Fee against the service provided by MPL of removing the Traded Team from the Proposer’s account post verification of relevant details, and re-registering it in the Contender’s account.
Where a Contest allows a player to register with multiple teams, a player can Propose each of the registered teams created by them. For example, if a Contest allows each player to register with upto 3 teams, Player A can create and propose each of the 3 teams by inviting Additional Winning offers.
Any tax/levies/duty etc. as applicable on material prizes including Additional Winnings, shall be paid by the Proposer of the TradedTeam. Based on TDS (tax deducted at source) Rules for any sort of game winning in India, 31.2% TDS should be deducted on any Additional Winning above Rs.10,000/- for a single Traded Team.
