Power Tip™ is the smartest NFL, EPL, AFL, NRL, A-League, AFLW & NRLW tipping app — a free skill-based prediction game where strategy wins, not luck. Unlike basic tipping apps, Power Tip™ uses a unique weighted rating system. Every round you assign Power Ratings to your tips — including one Power Tip worth 10,15 or 20 points (depending on the sport) for the game you’re most confident about. Tip the same teams as everyone else and still get very different scores. HOW IT WORKS Pick the winner of every NFL, EPL, AFL, NRL, AFLW & NRLW game each round. Assign your ratings based on confidence — the higher your confidence, the higher the rating. Use your Power Tip wisely and climb the Power Boards.
