We made a website to search and find wager matches
First of all; I asked the moderators to post this here and they are fine with this. We aren't a company or any kind of professionals - just some passionate FIFA players with a great idea. The website is a non-commercial project, which means you are able to use it for free.
What is our website about?
FUT-Wagers.com offers you the most advanced system for searching and finding wager matches in FUT with a fully working matchsystem, user-based reviews, an easy to use messagesystem, rankings and much more.
The whole website was developed especially for finding and searching wager matches - there is no wordpress or another inconvenient CMS in the background. We tried to make everything as easy as possible, but we also invested many hours to think about ways how users could abuse our system to scam other players. While there is no interface/API from EA Sports we can’t control or manage the coin transfer between players, but we tried to make the process before and after the game as easy and reliable as we can. We are aware of the biggest problem with wager matches; scammers and people who don’t pay up their wagers. Because of that, we will use user-based reviews combined with a trusted status and a report function for players and matches. Together with a zero tolerance policy we will try to keep our wager community free of scammers and unfriendly people. Methods to prevent fake/second accounts are already built-in.
As far as I know other similar projects take fees from their users and use a different system, where you have deposit coins on the website. We thought about this idea when we started to plan the website, but we disliked it and decided to go another (simpler) way. Our system is comparable to eBay. We have a user-based rating system, which is linked to our matchsystem. The coin transfer happens just between the two players (after the match), so we have no influence to this area. But as I said; if someone scam you, you are able to report the user and the match and of course give him a negative rating. Your support ticket will be investigated by our admin staff and we will ban the scammer. It's like on eBay; you can decide by yourself if you want to play against a freshly registered user without reviews or if you stick to trusted people with a bunch of positive ratings. The system is really self-explaining. As an additional attraction you get points for playing wager matches on our website and can compare yourself in a ranking list with other users. We are planning to reward our best players regularly with giveaways and prizes, but the website needs to grow at first.
Screenshots of our website
We created a gallery on imgur, so you don't need to register to take a first look on our website.
We also made a short video tutorial how to use our website
Feedback
Now that the website is freshly released, we are looking for specific feedback to update and improve the functionality and user experience. For this purpose we made a survey (http://www.goo.gl/zX0yYJ) to collect your first thoughts. But you can also use this thread to point out which areas might need some rework. Also feel free to ask questions about the project or leave your concerns here - I will try to answer everything as fast as possible. We really really appreciate every single suggestion and feedback - thanks in advance for helping us to improve the website!
Our next steps
We literally started 2 days ago, so we will need some days to increase our userbase and get a decent amount of activity on our website. At the moment we are trying to reach as many FIFA players as possible. We are spreading the URL, do a giveaway of 2200 FIFA Points and start our social media activity. We got more than 8.000 page impressions in the first 48 hours, so we are growing (slowly).
TL;DR:
new website for searching and finding wager matches
especially developed for this purpose
we would like to collect feedback in this thread (or via this survey: http://www.goo.gl/zX0yYJ)
Website features:
support of all platforms (PC, PS, Xbox)
a fully working matchsystem
messagesystem to contact opponents
rankingsystem and match history
a user-based rating system similar to eBay (including a trusted status)
userprofiles
supportsystem for reports and problems

World Cup Tournament Draw
Right guys finally I have enough people do do this! Rules are normal tournament rules: No Attribute, No subs, No Quitting.
You must use 5 of one country, and 6 of the other, Obviously some teams have limited number of players, so teams such as Costa Rica, Honduras and Iran will be different. For the rest of the teams, you must have 5 of one country, 6 of another. For Iran, you have to have 1 iranian player For Costa Rica, you have to have 4 Costa Rican players For Honduras, you have to have 3 Honduran(?) players.
You must play your games ASAP! You have until Saturday Morning 12 am to play your first game round or one person will be randomly picked to progress. You must also post a futhead link to your team to make sure your cost is LESS THAN 50k.
For showing the results, normal sidebar rules

Don't wager MidobiM aka bosnjak at reddit. Played him for 15k and he didn't pay up. All he left me with, was a message saying ''lucky faggot''.
Link to his user page: www.reddit.com/u/bosnjak
I would like the mods to ban him from this subreddit as he has gotten a lot of complaints from several people on the subreddit.

r/FifaUTWagers • u/[deleted] • Mar 08 '14
I don't want to jump to conclusions
But I believe a scam has taken place. I was just getting the feeling this sub was getting alot of trust worthy members! We were doing so good! Well sadly, /u/ihatehokeypokey and I played for 20k , then double or nothing, then he deleted me as a friend. We played in the past and we didn't have a problem.
here are my pics just so y'all can see.
onto the next one!

Known Scammer Gamertags/PSN
Please read the rules on the side, I can't ban people if you don't have any evidence!
I'll update the list with gamertags in future, make sure to be up to date with the list so you don't get scammed! It's much easier to get the gamertags as people can just make a new account on reddit easily (although you can on PSN, I'd advise not wagering if their club dates new

My trusted players list for 360 ( for new members looking for people to trust )
Besides Just Rodger and Drachmae you might be wondering who might be trustworthy to play. I keep a little sticky note under my tv saying who I can trust and play without there being any chance of scamming.
So Im going to give you that list. these are all the Reddit user names.
Fuckerburg, Swag America, Nordic Thunder, Platypus, JDcastro, Arkison, Stavsfirnhaber, Da3 BizzIe, Spydos, The Klur.
Just be careful with your coins. Id like to see other members of different consoles do the same so we can have more players join this community and keep it safe. Cheer and happy fifa-ing.
edit: message from the honcho- Drachmae has retired from fifa therefore isn't a trusted member anymore. You may also want to add that these are NOT trusted members and will not be refunded if they scam
r/FifaUTWagers • u/[deleted] • Apr 17 '14
I have this idea for the next tournament I run...please read all 360 users.
So I was the co-mod over at /r/fantasyfifa and last year, we drafted players (any players) just like in fantasy football/basketball/etc. It turned out great and people got to play with the greats like Zlatan, ronaldo, and messi. I believe we had 12 people and we split into 2 groups. If this gets enough interest , I will set up a private sub and we can try it out.
edit: here's what some of the teams looked like https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AlgBkce73VsOdGVVeG91c0YtcEh2UUxPVldaOG5IX1E&usp=sharing#gid=0
this isnt over ultimate team friendlies. you would have make a custom squad and use season online friendlies with custom squads.

[PS3] Beware of /u/CadeHannan97 aka FIND1998_CADE
Will claim his little brother was the one that lost to you and won't pay up. I will post screenshots if needed.
r/FifaUTWagers • u/[deleted] • Jan 23 '14
And remember...
Going 2-0 up against a mod is BAD, you're not supposed to score against them.

What is the point?
What is the point in these wagers? I have just started playing wagers on PS4, and won a few, but all that happens is they delete you of PSN and no one pays up! I have lost countless games and paid immediately, but can never make money as when i win, I never get paid!!!! Rant over! But isn't this the point of the page!

Calling out SkullStorm ( xbox360 )
even though its 5k, you got your ass handed to you twice and you're still a poor sport not to pay up. I recommend not playing against him because he will complain the whole time. Gg man, thanks for deleting me as a friend. Hughes is still up if you change your mind and want to pay up :) EA's website is down, but ill show you the 7-3, and 3-0 games.
