Terms of Service

1. Who can play

PopQuizAfrica is a skill-based quiz platform. You must be 18 years or older to create an account. One person may hold one account only. Holding or using more than one account, including accounts opened by or for another person on your behalf, is a breach of these terms and may result in all linked accounts being closed and any winnings in them forfeited. Deposited funds are not forfeited and will be returned. Withdrawals require a Nigerian bank account held in your own name, and we may request identity verification (KYC) before processing them.

2. How the game works

Play begins with the Qualifier, which is free to attempt using your daily free plays and carries no cash prize. Clearing it once permanently unlocks the cash stages. You may also pay a one-off fee to skip the Qualifier; that fee is not refundable and does not guarantee success at any later stage.

Each cash stage charges an entry fee for every attempt, not once per stage. The fee, the number of questions, the time per question and the pass mark are all displayed before you start, and a failed attempt does not entitle you to a refund. Free daily plays apply to the Qualifier only and can never be used on a cash stage.

Each stage prize is payable once per account. Clearing a stage you have already cleared does not pay again. Grading happens entirely on our servers, and our record of your answers and timings is final.

Entry fees, prizes, pass marks, question counts and difficulty are set by us and may change at any time. Changes apply from the moment they are published and are not applied retrospectively to attempts already completed. Prizes already paid into your wallet are unaffected.

3. Wallets, deposits and withdrawals

Deposits are processed by Paystack and credited to your PopQuizAfrica wallet in Naira. Wallet funds may be used for stage entry fees, tournament entries and other paid features. Entry fees are deducted when an attempt starts and are not returned if the attempt is unsuccessful. Withdrawal requests are reviewed manually, deduct the requested amount immediately, and are paid to your verified bank account, less any displayed fees. Rejected withdrawals are refunded in full to your wallet.

4. Fair play

Automation, scripted play, answer-sharing, holding multiple accounts, VPN abuse and exploiting bugs are all prohibited and may result in disqualification, forfeiture of winnings, and closure of every linked account. To enforce this we record device and browser characteristics, network information, payment details associated with your deposits and withdrawals, and answer timings, and we use these to identify accounts operated by the same person. Where we act on this evidence we will tell you what was found. Deposited funds are always returned.

5. Responsible play

You can request deposit limits or self-exclusion at any time via your account or by contacting support. Self-exclusion blocks logins for the chosen period and cannot be lifted early. Never play with money you cannot afford to lose.

6. Liability and changes

The service is provided "as is". We are not liable for losses arising from network failures, third-party payment processors, or scheduled maintenance. We may update these terms; continued use after an update constitutes acceptance. Questions: help@popquizafrica.com.
