Is anyone else wondering why the amount of”won” is zero ? Does this seem fair? What is the point of betting? Doesn’t seem right to me.

I was wondering the same thing and wrote to them. It's completely BS. The purpose of a bet is supposed to be that if you win, you get more than you put in. I'm already in another competition and won't be using this program again. Below is their reply to me, which I did not find satisfactory:

Thanks for your email—and huge congrats on crushing your goals! ?

I’m sorry for any disappointment and happy to help explain how our No Lose Guarantee works. If you hit your goals, you’ll never walk away with less than your original bet.

Most winners do earn a profit, but in rare cases where a game has an unusually high percentage of winners, we’ll reduce our fee to make sure everyone at least gets their bet back. That way, your worst-case scenario is that you stayed motivated and achieved your goals for free—which is still a win in our book! ?

For $300 in Bonus Cash! The November 11th Game!, there were a total of 38 winners, so DietBet reduced their fee to make sure that everyone got back what they put into the game pot.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions—we’re always here to help.

Sounds like a good outcome. They reduce their rake to ensure you get 100% back.

So you made 500 from all of us and we all made nothing from you. The bet was 100. The winnings were zero! Wow . What a scam

Please tell me how you calculated 20.00?
Doesn’t make sense to me.

They put $20 to each round and $20 towards to final pot. They do take up to 25% of each pot as a fee to run the game, but make sure all winners break even at least. In the past each round I have “won” between $1-$15 (above the $20 fee) but the bigger payout happens in the final round. This is my first time just breaking even, this is my 4th or 5th transformer.

Hi, Just wanted to know if "progress weigh ins" can be used for weigh ins for games if the progress weigh is approved and conducted within the 2 day period in relation to the deadline for the game. Hope this makes sense.

Yes, I think they do offer that to members as a perk
