Kickoff

The small print

Terms of Service

Effective 25 September 2026

Kickoff Daily is a set of daily football puzzles, made and run by one person. By using the site you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use it.

Playing

Today's games are free to play, with or without an account. Please don't cheat by automating guesses, scraping the answers, or hammering the site with requests. Rate limits are there to keep things fair and running for everyone.

Accounts

Signing in with Google or X is optional. You're responsible for what happens on your account, so keep your Google or X login secure. We may suspend or delete accounts that abuse the site or break these terms. You can ask us to delete your account at any time by emailing kickoffdaily.support@gmail.com.

Extra Time

Extra Time costs £5.99 as a one-off payment through Stripe. It unlocks available past Cult Heroes and The Player matchdays and removes ads while you are signed in to the account that purchased it. Access has no scheduled expiry while this service is available. There is no subscription, automatic renewal or recurring charge. Today's games stay free.

Access starts when payment is confirmed. To request a refund or report a payment problem, email kickoffdaily.support@gmail.com with your receipt reference. A full refund removes the access granted by that purchase; disputed payments may also have access suspended. Nothing in these terms removes your statutory cancellation, refund or other consumer rights.

Football data

Player details (clubs, nationalities, positions, shirt numbers and ages) come from our own research and public sources such as Wikipedia, Wikidata and TheSportsDB. Football moves fast, so some details will be out of date or wrong. Found a mistake? Let us know at kickoffdaily.support@gmail.com. Puzzle answers and scores are decided by the site, and our decision is final.

Not affiliated

Kickoff Daily is an independent fan project. It isn't affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any club, league, federation or player. Club, competition and player names are used only to describe the puzzles.

Our content

The Kickoff Daily name, design, puzzles and code belong to Kickoff Daily. You're welcome to share your results using the share buttons, but please don't copy or republish the games or the puzzle lists.

Availability

We try to keep the site running smoothly, but it's provided as it is, without guarantees. Games may change, be paused or be retired, and the site may be unavailable at times.

Liability

As far as the law allows, Kickoff Daily isn't liable for any indirect or consequential loss, or for losing streaks, scores or saved progress. None of this limits liability that can't legally be limited, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or your rights as a consumer.

Privacy

How we handle your data is explained in the Privacy Policy.

Changes

We may update these terms. The new version will appear here with a new effective date, and significant changes will also be announced on the site. If you keep using Kickoff Daily after a change, you're accepting the new terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. If you live elsewhere in the UK or in the EU, you keep the protections of your local consumer law, and you can bring a claim in your local courts.
