FAQ
Questions, answered.
Everything about stakes, payouts, fairness, and getting started. Still stuck? Ask in Discord.
Is this gambling?
No. P1X3LZ is skill-based competition — you win by outplaying other humans, not by beating odds set by a house. There's no house edge, no random number generator deciding your fate, and every match is replayable so you can see exactly why you won or lost.
How much can I stake?
Snake lobbies run from $1 to $25 in USDC. Pixel War (coming soon) will run $2 to $50. You always know the exact pot and your potential winnings before you join.
How are winnings calculated?
The pot is every player's stake combined, minus the platform fee. The top 5 finishers split it 49% / 25% / 14% / 8% / 4%. Try the live calculator on the How it works page to see real numbers.
What's the fee?
5.5% on stakes of $5 or more, 10% on $1–4 stakes. That's it. No deposit fees, no withdrawal fees, no token tax.
How fast do I get paid?
Under 60 seconds. The smart contract settles payouts to winners’ wallets the moment a match ends — there’s no withdrawal queue and nothing ever sits "pending".
Do I need crypto experience?
No. Sign in with Google or email and a wallet is created for you automatically. If you already have a wallet, connect it in one tap.
Is there a token?
No, and there never will be. USDC in, USDC out. We make money from the small match fee — there's nothing to pump and nothing to dump.
Is it really live? Can I play now?
Yes — Snake Battle Royale is live on Base Sepolia testnet. Grab free testnet USDC from the faucet and play right now. Mainnet with real stakes is next on the roadmap.
