How to organize a company betting contest?

Speculating and predicting—these are actions we engage in daily. The thrill of surprise, the adrenaline, the excitement of explaining the reasoning behind our prediction, the pride in learning we were right, the ambition to make even more informed predictions next time—there’s a whole range of emotions generated by betting.

Predictions don’t stop at the doors of your company. It’s quite likely that you’ve already made predictions or even placed bets at work. However, be cautious of the dangers of gambling—once money is involved, problems like debt can arise.

That said, it would be a shame not to harness the energy generated by betting while being mindful of the previously mentioned risks. No matter the topic you want to predict on, there are several methods to organize your betting contest in the workplace—here are the most significant ones!

1. The Old-Fashioned Way - The Board

We all know the scenario: during lunch or coffee breaks, a common topic of interest is identified. Everyone starts making their predictions, and the competition begins—who will be right? A serious and invested colleague will then need to write down all these speculations and keep them safe. Generally, a piece of paper and a pen suffice, but the board can also be done in Excel. This method is quick, simple, and free (unless you factor in the time invested by the person responsible for the infamous board).

However, predictors don’t have easy access (unless it’s a shared spreadsheet), they can quickly grow bored since the format isn’t engaging, and this activity requires significant involvement from someone who must constantly track responses, points, remind colleagues to make their predictions, and more.

2. Free Prediction Platforms

There are many free platforms such as MonPetiProno or Predikt—a more attractive alternative when you want to organize a prediction contest for a small group on a popular topic like the Roland-Garros competition. Typically free for a limited number of users, these sites make your task easier. However, it’s important to note that the possibility for customization is very limited or even non-existent.

3. The ccup.io Prediction Platform

The most suitable option for companies is the ccup.io platform—a turnkey prediction platform that is fully customizable to your company’s visual identity. Although it is paid, it offers many features that can transform the workplace prediction contest into a real team-building tool that you can use to strengthen your company culture.

On the platform, players can log in, make their predictions, answer quiz questions, and comment on matches with their colleagues using instant messaging. At the end of the prediction contest, the player with the most points will win a prize that you, as the contest organizer, will choose and provide. It is also possible to integrate sponsored ads or to conduct prediction contests on any topic.

We invite you to contact us to get a demonstration of the platform and discover all its features.
