How to Get Started with Kickgeist

Getting Started with Kickgeist

From download to your first prediction in under two minutes. Here's everything you need to know to start playing.

  1. Step 1: Download the App

    Kickgeist is available for free on both iPhone and Android. Search for 'Kickgeist' in the App Store or Google Play, or use the download links on this page.

  2. Step 2: Create Your Account

    When you first open the app, you'll be asked to choose a display name and select your country. That's it. No email address required, no lengthy registration form. You're in.

  3. Step 3: Create or Join a Group

    You can either create a new group (give it a name and share the invite link) or join an existing group via an invite link from a friend. Every player belongs to at least one group.

  4. Step 4: Make Your First Prediction

    Navigate to the upcoming matches and tap on one. You'll see three options: Home Win, Draw, or Away Win. Pick your prediction and confirm. That's your first prediction done.

  5. Step 5: Track Your Rankings

    After matches are played, check the leaderboard to see where you stand. Rankings update in real time during matches. See your position within your group and on the global leaderboard.

  6. Step 6: Challenge Other Groups

    Once your group is established, challenge another group to a head-to-head showdown. The group with more correct predictions wins bragging rights and a badge.
