No house
Betting exchanges take a cut of every trade, so the house profits whether you were right or wrong. Parley has no cut to take. There is no money in play at all — points can’t be bought and can’t be cashed out. What you stake is your reputation.
Built to be put down
Prediction apps are designed for the refresh loop. Ours has a hard daily limit on conviction calls and a feed that ends. Vote, see where you stand, get on with your day — the cap is the point, not a limitation.
Taste is the point
Calling a genuine 50/50 correctly pays far more than agreeing with an obvious winner. The scoring rewards people who read the room early — so the standing you build reflects judgment, not just volume.
