Pinpoint FAQ

Answers to the most common questions about how Pinpoint works, its virtual coins, odds and settlement, progress, and safety.

Basics

What is Pinpoint?

Pinpoint is a free-to-play prediction grid game. You pick a cell on a live price × time chart, lock in fixed odds instantly, and win the multiplier if the price line sweeps through your cell before its target time. You play with virtual coins that have no cash value.

Is Pinpoint free to play?

Yes. Pinpoint is free to play. You start with 1,000 virtual coins and can top up with a free daily bonus. You play with virtual coins that have no cash value.

Do I need an account to play?

No account is required — you can play as a guest right away. You can link an email to save your progress across devices, but it is optional.

What markets can I play?

You can play on stock price charts (TSLA, GOOGL, QQQ) and 24/7 crypto price charts (BTC, ETH). Each market shows a live price line moving across the grid.

Coins & purchases

Can I buy coins?

Yes, optional coin packs are available to buy through secure checkout, and coins are credited to your balance after payment is confirmed. Buying coins is entirely optional — it only tops up your virtual coin balance and gives no gameplay advantage.

Can I cash out or withdraw coins?

No. Coins are virtual only — they have no cash value and cannot be redeemed, withdrawn, or exchanged for money. Even purchased coins can never be converted back to money.

How do I get free coins?

Every player starts with 1,000 coins. You can claim a free daily bonus of 200 coins once per day, and you earn more coins by completing the three daily tasks and through the referral program.

Odds & settlement

How are the multipliers calculated?

Each cell's multiplier reflects how likely the price line is to land in that cell's price band at its target time. Cells near the current price are more likely to hit and pay a smaller multiplier, while farther cells pay more. Multipliers range from about 1.05× up to 100×, and the multiplier locks the instant you place your pick.

When does a pick settle?

Each pick has a target time roughly 15 seconds in the future. When that time arrives the pick is judged: you win if the price line is inside your cell's price band at that moment, otherwise the pick loses.

What happens if I lose a pick?

You lose only the coins you staked on that pick. Pinpoint uses fixed-odds picks with no leverage and no debt, so a losing pick can never cost you more than your stake.

Is there a maximum win per pick?

Yes. A single pick's net win is capped, so extremely far cells still settle within a sensible limit. In practice you place a stake, the odds are locked at pick time, and the win is your stake multiplied by those locked odds up to the cap.

Account & progress

What saves my progress?

Your balance, open picks, and stats are stored on your Pinpoint session so they survive a page refresh. Linking an email keeps that progress attached to you across devices and browsers.

What are daily tasks?

Daily tasks are three objectives offered each day, based on your real settled and open picks. When you complete a task you can claim a reward of coins and XP. Tasks refresh every day.

What are streaks and the leaderboard?

A streak counts your consecutive winning picks and resets to zero when a pick loses, with milestone moments along the way. Leaderboards rank players over rolling hourly and daily windows by net profit/loss, longest streak, and ROI.

How does the referral program work?

Share your invite code with a new player. When they apply it they receive a 300-coin welcome bonus, and you earn a coin reward once they reach 10 settled picks. Inviter rewards follow a decreasing schedule for each qualified invite.

Safety & fairness

Are the prices real?

Crypto markets use real 24/7 market data, while the stock price lines are simulated. In all cases the prices shown are for entertainment only — they may be simulated or delayed and are not financial advice.

Is Pinpoint gambling?

No. Pinpoint is entertainment only. There is no real-money wagering, coins have no cash value and cannot be withdrawn, and play is for ages 18+ (or the legal age in your jurisdiction).

Where can I get responsible-play information?

See the Responsible Play page for guidance on keeping play fun and in balance. Pinpoint is designed as a game, not a way to make money, and coins never have cash value.
