Frequently Asked Questions
Is CardGradient really 100% free?
Yes. There are absolutely no entry fees, no deposits, and no hidden costs. We do not support real-money gambling. Our platform is sustained by optional cosmetic upgrades and premium data-analysis tools that do not affect the core drafting and scoring mechanics.
How does the scoring system work?
Our engine tracks over 120 live data points via Opta integration. Players earn points for traditional metrics like goals and assists, but also for advanced actions like progressive carries, interceptions, and key passes. You can view the full matrix on our Scoring Page.
Can I create a private league for my office?
Absolutely. You can create private leagues in any of our three formats (Season Draft, Daily Strike, or Head-to-Head). As the commissioner, you have total control over draft times, waiver wire mechanics, and custom scoring modifiers.
What happens if a player is injured during a match?
Injuries are part of football. If your player is subbed off, they retain the points they earned up to that moment. If you have an active auto-substitutes bench configured in your league settings, an eligible player from your bench may swap in at the end of the gameweek if the injured player played zero minutes.
