Terms of Service

Last updated July 2, 2026

1. What JACKPOT is

JACKPOT is a player-versus-player gaming platform on Solana: two players stake an equal wager, play a short game of chance face-to-face over live video, and the winner takes the pot (less the protocol fee). You play against other players, not against the house.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live, if higher) and located somewhere real-money games of chance are lawful for you to play. You are responsible for knowing and complying with your local law. We may restrict access from jurisdictions where operating would be unlawful.

3. Your wallet is your account

You sign in by proving control of a Solana wallet. That wallet is your identity: we never hold your private keys, cannot move your funds outside the escrow rules below, and cannot recover a wallet you lose. Anyone who controls your wallet controls your account, so keep it secure.

4. Wagers, escrow, and fees

Real-money matches are funded through an on-chain escrow program. Both players deposit the exact agreed wager; gameplay for stakes begins only after both deposits are verified on-chain. When a match settles, the program pays the winner the pot minus a protocol fee (a fixed percentage set in the on-chain configuration). Deposits committed to a match are final once the match starts. There is no cancelling a game you are losing.

If a match is cancelled before play begins (for example, your opponent never deposits or leaves during voting), escrowed funds are returned per the program's refund rules.

5. Disconnects and leaving

Games are played to completion. If you leave a live match, you forfeit it. If you disconnect mid-game, an automated player finishes your remaining turns so your opponent is never held hostage; reconnect in time and you resume playing yourself. If a match is abandoned before it starts, it is cancelled rather than forfeited. These rules exist so that disconnecting can never be used as a weapon.

6. Fair play and prohibited conduct

You agree not to:

  • exploit bugs, automate play, or interfere with the service or other players;
  • use multiple wallets to manipulate matchmaking, stats, or promotions;
  • broadcast unlawful, abusive, or sexually explicit content over the in-room video, or harass other players in chat;
  • attempt to attack, threaten, or defraud other players.

7. Enforcement

Players can report abuse from inside any room. We may suspend or permanently revoke access, including mid-match forfeiture, for violations of these terms. On-chain deposits remain governed by the escrow program's rules in all cases.

8. Risk and disclaimers

Wagering involves risk, and cryptocurrency involves additional risk: network congestion, RPC outages, and wallet mistakes are outside our control. The service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the amount of the wager in the match giving rise to the claim.

9. Changes and contact

We may update these terms; material changes will be reflected in the "last updated" date above, and continued play constitutes acceptance. Questions: support@jackpot.cam.
