The Squares Game
A better way to manage online Squares games
The Squares Game helps managers spend less time chasing details and more time enjoying the game.
- Less manual bookkeeping
- Live scoreboard and play-by-play
- Automatic winner calculation
- Automatic payout amount calculation
- Player payment tracking
- Winner payout tracking
- Manager-connected Stripe card payments
- Peer-to-peer payment instructions
- Auto Expand for fundraisers and larger groups
The traditional way to play
A manager draws a grid, players write their names in available squares, and numbers 0-9 are assigned to each team after the grid is filled or ready to play.
At each winning moment, such as the end of a quarter, half, or final score, the last digit of each team's score points to the winning square.
That paper version is familiar and still works well at live parties, especially around the Super Bowl. The challenge starts when the group is remote, payments come in through different services, or the manager has to keep checking scores and calculating winners by hand.
The Squares Game keeps the familiar rules but adds live score tracking, automatic winner calculation, payout amount calculation, payment tracking, and fundraiser-friendly Auto Expand rounds.

Why bring Squares online
Make joining simple
Players get a clean passwordless path for reserving squares and following the game from desktop or mobile.
Track the live game
Live score and play-by-play support help everyone follow the game without manually checking scores and updating winners.
Calculate winners and payouts
Winner calculation and payout amount calculation reduce manual math when quarters, halves, or final scores decide the pool.
Manage payments clearly
Managers can use card payments through their own Stripe setup or share saved peer-to-peer instructions for Venmo, PayPal, Cash App, Zelle, Apple Cash, Google Pay, and other methods.
Built for real groups
The app is designed for Super Bowl parties, NFL games, college football, UFL (United Football League), AFL (Australian Football League), pro and college basketball, men's and women's games, office pools, community groups, and fundraisers.
Keep the community feel
The goal is not to replace the social part of Squares. It is to make the setup, score tracking, winner calculation, payout math, and payment tracking easier for the person running it.
