Plucky Fantasy - Telegraph Fantasy Football 2024/25 - Rules
Plucky’s fantasy football platform allows small groups of friends to play their normal fantasy football game for money. Plucky itself is not a game provider but simply overlays a payments platform and manages the transactions in and out based on the published results of the game itself.
In order to participate in the platform, all users must sign up to Plucky and undergo an ID and Age Verification process that usually is approved in seconds if the person is a UK resident over the age of 18. If not, a further ‘know your client’ (KYC) process will be instigated requiring production of identity documentation.
In order to participate you must Sign Up or login to Plucky via Telegraph Fantasy Football (TFF). Firstly login to your TFF Team, navigate to the Leagues page and choose the “Paid Leagues” link. This process ensures that Plucky can match your TFF Team to your verified Plucky account. Once a user has joined Plucky and been approved, they can then create or join various paid leagues on Plucky and invite the other players in their private mini-leagues to join the platform and sign up to play for money.
The Game
TFF and Plucky are offering various cash leagues, whereby the amount being played for is deposited at the beginning of the league period (Season, Month or Week), with either the 1st or 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes being paid out to the accounts of the users occupying those places in their mini-leagues after the last game of the period, with this data coming directly from Telegraph Fantasy Football.
These rules should be read in conjunction with Plucky’s general Rules of the Game and Terms and Conditions.

Weekly
Weekly Cash Leagues are run in conjunction with TFF Game Weeks throughout the season. Game Weeks run every Tuesday to Monday throughout the season. Weekly paid leagues are only valid where at least one eligible match is played in a week.
Rules
Only one team can be linked to a Plucky account.
Users can enter one or more public cash leagues as determined by the availability of cash leagues on Telegraph Fantasy Football website/app. Dates are published above. Dates maybe subject to change.
The initiator (“Chairman”) of a private Plucky mini-league for money will have the choice to set up a ‘winner takes all’ game, or one which has 1st, 2nd and 3rd prizes.
The initiator will also choose the stake to be played for per person and then create the game.
The initiator will then invite the other members of their mini-league to join.
Stakes available for season long Plucky leagues: £5, £10, £20, £50.
Stakes available for monthly Plucky leagues: £5, £10, £20.
Stakes available for weekly Plucky leagues: £5, £10.
All players in a Telegraph Fantasy Football mini-league do not have to join the Plucky league and play for money, however anybody not playing for money cannot win any Plucky prize payout.
Plucky requires 2 different managers to enter for a Plucky mini-league to be valid. If a mini-league does not contain 2 unique users by the start of scoring, it will be deemed void and any users refunded. For the avoidance of doubt, entry fees are not refundable unless a cash league is deemed void.
At the end of the season, Plucky will credit the winning prize amounts to the Player’s Plucky account. These can be withdrawn at the player’s convenience.
The league position prizes will be taken directly from official Telegraph Fantasy Football data provided by Genius Sports and as such will be final.
In the unlikely event that changes are made to the places subsequently and after the Plucky places have been determined and/or paid out, no changes will be made to the Plucky places, which will stand as originally declared.
