Football Squares Frequently Asked Questions


How do you play Football Squares?

There are many different variations of how people play football squares, also known as Super Bowl Squares. We have a help page that you can use to learn How to Play Football Squares


Can I change the Rules and Payouts?

We provide a template of Rules, payouts, images, etc. for you to begin with, but you can edit them to match your needs.


How do the Players pay for their Squares?

The Admin decides how to collect funds from Players.

You can put a link or instructions within the Rules or Payment section of your grids about how you would like to collect funds, whether it be through a link to an online payment solution or through an offline method. If you put it within the Payment section, it will show on your Grid's Homepage, the confirmation page after a User makes their selection(s), and also on the email confirmation that the User receives.

It is very easy to add/remove players from your Grid, so if they don't pay on time you can easily remove them and let other Players choose their square.


How much does this service cost?

You can find the pricing on the Registration page located at https://superbowlsquares.org/register


Do you offer discounts for charities or non‑profits?

The majority of our Customers use our service for this purpose, so our pricing is structured for these type of organizations already.


What if I need additional grids?

As the Admin, you can purchase additional grids at any time. New grids will appear on your Grids page when you log in. Each grid has its own unique URL; many admins place cross‑links in the Rules section and use the same public login to make it easy for players to switch between grids.


Can I use this service for games other than the Super Bowl?

Yes, you can definitely use our Service for any game, including College Football games, NFL Regular Season games, NFL Playoff games, NBA, March Madness, Basketball Squares, etc.

Is it legal to run a fundraiser online?

Rules vary by state and circumstance. Please research your local regulations and ensure your use complies with applicable laws.


What if the grid won’t fill up?

It’s up to the Admin. A common approach is to reduce the price per square and allow existing players to add more picks.


How are the Numbers Generated?

As the Admin, go to Admin > Manage Grids, open the Edit menu for a grid, and choose “Manage Numbers.” From there you can generate numbers automatically or enter them manually.


How do I Invite Players?

Invite players using your email client. Include the grid URL plus the grid username and password you set under Settings. You can find the grid URL on your Admin dashboard.


How do I edit a Player's entry?

If you would like to make a change to an entry or to delete an entry, please do the following:

  • Login as the Admin
  • Click on the "Edit" dropdown menu on the left hand side of the grid listing for the grid you want to manage
  • Choose "Show Players"
  • You should now see a list of all your Entrants with a dropdown on the right side of their entry
  • Click the "Edit" Dropdown and Choose to Edit or Delete


How do I run a Grid for the entire NFL Regular Season?

There are two common ways to run Football Squares for the NFL season:

  • Great for Monday Night Football Squares
  • Or have Football Squares every week for your Favorite NFL Team!
  • Single Grid for the entire Season
    • With a Single Grid, every User/Player selects a Square that will last them the entire season.
    • Once the Grid is full, the Admin generates the numbers for that week (e.g. Week 1)
    • After the game is complete, the Admin takes note of which Squares won.
    • After recording who won, the Admin will then generate a new set of numbers for the following week. (e.g. Week 2). [[ Note: we recommend generating the new set of numbers a day or two before the next game to allow Users/Players to see who won the week prior. ]]
  • 18 Different Grids
    • With 18 Grids, you can have a completely different Grid of Players each week, and the Winning numbers for each week will always be available since there is a separate Grid per week.
