Question 1

How do cash prize gaming tournaments work?

Accepted Answer

Pick an event, confirm roster requirements and entry fees, then play through the bracket. Prize pools and settlement rules are shown on each tournament page before you register.

Question 2

How do I deposit and withdraw on Nerkco?

Accepted Answer

Add nibs through Stripe checkout, compete in eligible paid events, and withdraw cash-out eligible balance to a connected bank account.

Question 3

Which regions support paid stakes?

Accepted Answer

Paid wallet play is available in eligible US states and Canada. International players can still compete in free ranked events and free tournaments.

Question 4

How does payment work?

Accepted Answer

Nerkco uses prepaid credits called nibs (1 nib ≈ $1 of platform credit). Buy packs with Stripe, spend them on paid matches or tournament entry, and win prizes back into your wallet. Purchased value can cash out after verification; promo bonuses are play-only.

Question 5

What does “locked in escrow” mean?

Accepted Answer

When you post or accept a paid match (or pay certain entry fees), your stake is reserved until the match finishes, cancels cleanly, or is released under platform rules. Locked nibs cannot be spent or withdrawn until released.

Question 6

How do withdrawals / cash-outs work?

Accepted Answer

Connect a bank account with Stripe Connect from Wallet, then withdraw cash-out eligible nibs. Promo nibs and promo-funded prizes cannot be withdrawn. Minimums, fees, and a short deposit hold on new purchases may apply.

Question 7

How do cash / stake matches work?

Accepted Answer

When cash play is enabled for your region, choose a stake. Both sides lock nibs in escrow. When the result is final, the winner receives the payout minus any platform fee shown before you commit.
