Welcome to Parlaye, the first fair peer-to-peer daily fantasy sports (DFS) app. We don’t win when you lose & that’s how we like it.
Instead of us or “the house” playing against you, we match you with another user. Parlaye’s matching algorithm considers multiple factors when deciding who to match you with - Entry Fee, Sport & League, Entry Start Time, etc.
Some important things to note! 
If you are not matched in time for the start of your entry, you will receive a full refund.
Entries that are identical are not matched.
You are not playing robots or against us — only other real users! Parlaye or its employees cannot participate in real money daily fantasy contests as outlined in our terms of use.
We know that the user we match you with is important so we take our time to make sure we get this right. Do not be concerned if you are not matched hours before your entry is supposed to start.

Sure, 1.8x payout is lower than other apps. But is it? On Paralye, you play against another user and not the house. With only 1 opponent to beat, you’ve always got at least a 50% chance of winning! Check this example out below.
On other apps, a 6x payout is typically awarded for correctly picking 3 player projections. Because each of these over/under player projections typically have a 50% chance of being correct, you will on average win 12.5% of the time and usually on the last leg of the parlay like our friend on the left in the image above 
.
In the example above, “the house” would have beat both users but because this contest was on Parlaye, and the user on the left finished with more points than their matched opponent, they win 1.8x.
