Toqui is a private soccer prediction pool app for friend groups, offices, and communities. If you’re new or just have a quick question, you’re likely to find the answer below. Can’t find what you need? Email help@toqui.app.

​
Getting started

Yes — completely free for pools with up to 25 members. You can create as many pools as you like, and the free tier never expires and never requires a credit card. You only pay if a pool grows beyond 25 members, and even then only the organizer pays — not the members.
Never. Joining a pool is always free for every participant. One tap on a shareable invite link (or entering an 8-character join code) and you’re in. Only the pool organizer pays, and only when the pool grows past 25 members.
No download required. Toqui is a web app — open toqui.app in any modern browser and you’re good to go.If you’d like a more native feel, you can install Toqui as a Progressive Web App (PWA):
  • iOS (Safari): Tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen.
  • Android (Chrome): Tap the browser menu, then Add to Home Screen or Install app.
  • Desktop (Chrome/Edge): Click the install icon in the address bar.
The installed PWA gives you a home-screen icon, full-screen experience, and push notifications.
Toqui is built for the World Cup 2026 (48 teams, 104 matches, June 11 – July 19, hosted across the US, Canada, and Mexico) and other major soccer tournaments including Copa América. More tournaments are added as they approach — check the tournament selector when creating a pool for the current list.

​
Pools and picks

  • Public pool: Anyone with the invite link can join — no extra code needed. Useful for larger, open groups.
  • Private pool: Members must enter the pool’s unique 8-character join code to get in. The organizer controls who gets the code.
Both pool types keep individual picks hidden from other members until the deadline locks.
Yes. You can join or create up to 50 pools simultaneously. If you try to create a pool beyond that limit, you’ll see an error asking you to leave an existing pool first.
Yes, as long as the deadline hasn’t passed. Edit your picks any time before the lock:
  • Casual mode: Picks lock individually at each match’s kickoff.
  • Escalating / Cascading Bracket: Picks lock at the start of the stage (e.g., all group-stage picks lock on the day the group stage begins).
Once a match or stage has locked, picks for that match can no longer be added or changed.
Your prediction for that match is not submitted, and you earn 0 points for it. There’s no way to retroactively enter a pick after the deadline has passed. Set up push notifications so Toqui can remind you before picks lock.
Enable push notifications in your account settings to get a reminder a few hours before each deadline.
No. All picks are private until the match or stage deadline locks. This prevents anyone from simply copying the picks of the person who actually watches soccer — everyone competes on their own knowledge.
“Picks lock” is the deadline after which no new predictions can be submitted for a given match or tournament stage. Depending on your pool’s scoring mode:
  • In Casual mode, picks lock at the kickoff time of each individual match.
  • In Escalating or Cascading Bracket mode, all picks for a stage lock together at the start of that stage.
After a lock, submitted picks become visible to all pool members.

​
Scoring

Scoring depends on the mode your organizer chose when creating the pool. Toqui awards points for different levels of prediction accuracy:
RuleWhat it rewardsDefault points
Correct outcomeRight result — home win, draw, or away win2
Exact scoreThe exact final scoreline5
Correct marginRight goal difference3
Total goalsRight total number of goals2
Clean sheetCorrectly predicted a team conceding 0 goals2
Close scoreEach predicted score within 1 goal of the actual score1
Organizers can customize which rules apply and adjust the point values per tournament stage. In Escalating and Cascading Bracket modes, point values increase as the tournament progresses — a correct outcome in the final is worth far more than one in the group stage.
Your organizer may have changed the default point values. Check your pool’s scoring rules page to see exactly what’s in play for your pool.
Within seconds of a match ending. Toqui receives live match data and updates scores and standings automatically — no organizer action needed, no page refresh required. You may receive a push notification if you’ve moved up the table.
When two or more members have the same total points, Toqui resolves ties in this order:
  1. Total points — higher is better (the primary sort).
  2. Number of exact scores — more exact-score hits wins the tiebreak.
  3. Goal-difference accuracy — the member whose predicted goal differences are closest to reality across all matches ranks higher.
  4. Average submission time — the member who submitted their picks earlier on average ranks higher.
These tiers ensure a tiebreak can almost always be resolved without a manual ruling.

​
Pricing

Once a pool reaches its tier’s member cap, new members can’t join. Toqui will notify the organizer in-app when the limit is reached. The organizer can upgrade to the next Pro tier at any time — paying only the difference in price — and no picks or data are lost. Existing members don’t need to rejoin.Pro tier caps: 50, 100, 250, 500, and 1,000 members. Pools with over 1,000 members require an Enterprise plan.
For billing questions, refund requests, or any payment issues, email help@toqui.app. Include your pool name and the email address on your account and the team will get back to you.
