Being right earns XP: about 10 ÷ the chance you got in at. XP sets your rank, and each rank carries a share of Backd's 1% fee on your own real calls, up to 25% at Legend. Referrals earn a share of the fee on the calls your invitees back. Both accrue from day one and are paid out once payouts open. No prizes, no bonuses.
Double XP: every right call earns 2× XP until .
| Rank | XP needed | Fee back |
|---|---|---|
| Rookie | 0 | 0% |
| Regular | 250 | 5% |
| Sharp | 1,000 | 10% |
| Pro | 3,000 | 15% |
| Elite | 8,000 | 20% |
| Legend | 20,000 | 25% |
Fee back is the share of Backd's 1% fee on your own real calls. Rank rebates accrue to your account from your first call and are paid out once payouts open. Ranks carry no prizes beyond that; XP never depends on the stake.
| Backed at | XP if right | XP if wrong |
|---|---|---|
| 90% | 11 | 0 |
| 75% | 13 | 0 |
| 50% | 20 | 0 |
| 33% | 30 | 0 |
| 25% | 40 | 0 |
| 10% | 100 | 0 |
| 5% | 200 | 0 |
The exact rule: max(1, round(10 ÷ price)). A 50% call that wins earns 20 XP; a 10% long shot that wins earns 100. It never depends on the stake, so a $1 call and a $500 call earn the same.
The XP leaderboard ranks people by total XP, with right % and calls made as tie-breaks. It rewards volume of good judgement: lots of hard calls that landed. The profit board is the other view, where one big long shot can matter more. Both only count settled calls, and nobody can edit or delete their history. Leaderboards carry no prizes.
