Creating a pool takes less than two minutes. You pick the tournament, choose how scoring works, decide who can join, and Toqui hands you a shareable link. From that point on, the app runs itself — no spreadsheets, no manual scorekeeping, no chasing people for their picks.
1

Open the Create Pool screen

Sign in to toqui.app and click Create Pool from your dashboard. If this is your first pool, you’ll land there automatically after signing up.
2

Name your pool

Type a name between 3 and 50 characters. Pick something your group will recognize — “Marketing Team WC26,” “Garcia Family Pool,” or anything else that makes it obvious whose pool it is.
You can rename your pool later from Pool Settings, but the shareable URL won’t change — it’s based on your original name.
3

Select a tournament

Choose the tournament you want to run picks for. The app will load the correct match schedule, group stage, and knockout rounds automatically.
4

Choose a scoring mode

Select one of the three presets — Casual, Escalating, or Cascading Bracket — or build your own with Custom scoring.
Your scoring mode is locked once the first member joins. Choose carefully. If you’re not sure which to pick, Escalating is the most popular option for a reason — it rewards close picks and builds tension as the tournament progresses.

5

Set pool visibility

Choose how members join your pool.

Private

Members need an 8-character join code or your direct invite link to get in. Nothing is publicly listed. This is the default and works for most groups.

Public

Anyone with your pool’s link can join without a code. Useful for open competitions or communities where you don’t know everyone ahead of time.
6

Create the pool

Click Create Pool. You’re added as the organizer automatically — no separate sign-up step needed.You’ll land on your new pool’s page, where you’ll find your shareable invite link and join code ready to copy and send.
7

Invite your group

Copy your invite link or join code and send it via WhatsApp, email, iMessage, or however your group communicates. Members join for free — they never pay.See Invite members for all the ways to share and what happens when your pool grows past 25 members.

​
Pool limits

You can create up to 50 pools per account. Each pool is independent — different tournaments, different scoring modes, different groups.
Up to 25 members can join for free. After that, new members can’t join until you upgrade your pool to a paid tier. Your existing members and their picks are never affected.
Yes. There’s no restriction on running several pools for the same tournament — useful if you want separate pools for different friend groups or departments.
