Splash-managed Survivor contests use a Winner-Takes-All payout structure. This is the only payout option available for Survivor contests — there is no option to split the prize among multiple finishers.
Why Only Winner-Takes-All?
The Survivor format is built around elimination — the last person standing wins. A split-payout structure isn't compatible with that format, so you won't see a payout customization step when creating a Survivor contest. That's expected behavior, not a missing setting.
What Happens If There's a Tie?
If multiple participants survive to the end, the prize is split equally among all final survivors. Splash handles this automatically.
Optional Prize Splitting Mid-Contest
Some Splash Survivor contests include a Prize Splitting option. If enabled by the commissioner, the remaining survivors can unanimously agree to split the prize before the contest ends. This is separate from the end-of-contest tie rule. Learn more about Survivor house rules.
Need a Custom Payout Structure?
If you need more flexibility in how prizes are distributed, consider other contest formats on Splash Sports (like Pick'em or Tiers) that do allow custom payout structures.
