As a commissioner running a Self-Managed (Entertainment-Only) contest, you are responsible for paying the one-time service fee on Splash Sports. This fee allows you to use the platform’s tools to manage your contest.
Where to Pay Your Service Fee
You can pay your service fee directly within your contest by following these steps:
Go to your Commissioner Console
Select Pay Contest Fee
Follow the prompts to complete your payment (only accept debit/credit cards)
Important Notes
The service fee applies only to the commissioner
Members do not pay anything on Splash Sports for Self-Managed contests
All entry fees and payouts between you and your members are handled outside of the platform
What Happens If I Don’t Pay the Fee?
If the service fee is not paid by the required deadline:
Your contest may be locked
Members may not be able to view standings or make picks
Full contest functionality will be restricted until payment is completed
Key Reminder
Paying your service fee ensures your contest runs smoothly and remains accessible to all members. We recommend completing this as soon as possible to avoid any disruptions.
