Earn N' Burn
Master Rulebook

Earn N' Burn is a season-long paid fantasy sports contest. Contestants pay a one‑time entry fee before the contest begins and compete against the entire national field for the full duration of that contest. Contest lengths may differ from the league's official schedule. For example, the NFL contest will not include Week 18, and future leagues may have weeks trimmed at the beginning or end due to scheduling quirks. Each league's rules will clearly state the exact contest duration. There are no head-to-head matchups — every contestant is ranked on the same leaderboard.

The defining mechanic of Earn N' Burn is the single-use player rule: once a player is placed in a contestant's active lineup and their game begins, that player is considered burned and may not be used again for the remainder of the season. Contestants must manage their available players strategically across the full season.

Earn N' Burn launched with the 2026 NFL season and plans to expand into additional sports in future seasons.

Earn N' Burn contests are open to legal residents of the United States, subject to the restrictions below. Contestants must not be employees, contractors, or immediate family members of employees or contractors of Earn N' Burn Fantasy Sports.

To be eligible, U.S. residents must:

• Be a legal resident of the United States
• Be at least 18 years of age at the time of entry (see below)
• Not reside in a restricted state (see below)

Restricted States — residents of the following states are not eligible to participate in paid Earn N' Burn contests at this time:

Age Exceptions: Higher minimum ages apply in certain states — residents of Alabama and Nebraska must be at least 19 years of age, and residents of Massachusetts, Iowa, and Arizona must be at least 21 years of age at the time of entry.

This list is subject to change. It is the contestant's responsibility to verify eligibility based on the laws of their state at the time of entry.

Entry is completed through the registration form at enbfantasy.com. Contestants must provide accurate personal information including full legal name, date of birth, mailing address, and email address.

Entry Fee: Entry fees for Earn N' Burn contests will vary for each sport and may include different challenges such as weekly events. The entry fee for each contest is displayed on the contest page prior to registration. All entry fees are in U.S. Dollars (USD).

Entry Deadline: Each sport's contest will have its own entry deadline, which will be announced on the Earn N' Burn website when that sport's season approaches. Entry deadlines and any associated cutoff details will be published on the contest page for that sport.

All entry fees are non‑refundable once the season has begun. If a contestant is found to be ineligible after payment has been received, their entry may be voided and a refund may be issued. See the Refund Policy for full details.

A purchase or payment of an entry fee is not required to enter or win any Earn N' Burn contest, and will not improve your chances of winning. To enter a contest without payment of the applicable entry fee, submit a written request by first-class mail to:

Each mailed request must include, on a plain 3″ x 5″ card or sheet of paper:

• Your full legal name, complete mailing address, email address, phone number, and date of birth
• The statement: “Please enter me in the Earn N' Burn [contest name] contest”
• Your state or province of legal residence

Requests are subject to the same eligibility requirements as paid entries (see Section 02). Limit one free entry per person, per household, per contest. AMOE requests must be postmarked no later than seven (7) calendar days before that contest's first scheduled lineup lock, and received no later than one (1) day before that lock, to allow time for mail delivery and manual entry processing. This AMOE deadline will always fall earlier than the online entry window for that contest, since mailed requests cannot be processed instantly the way online entries can. The specific AMOE postmark and receipt dates for each contest will be published on that sport's contest page alongside its online entry deadline and lock time. Illegible, incomplete, or late requests will not be honored.

Earn N' Burn does not use a traditional roster. There is no draft and no roster that contestants own outright. Instead, all eligible players in the joined contest league are available to every contestant at the start of the season.

A contestant's available players are simply the players they have not yet burned. At the start of the season, every contestant has access to the full pool of eligible players. Each week, a contestant selects their active lineup from that pool. Once the game for any player in that lineup begins, that player is burned— permanently removed from that contestant's available pool for the rest of the season.

• Players are burned at the moment their game or match begins — not when the lineup is submitted. Lock timing specifics vary by sport and are covered in each sport's supplemental rules section.
• Two contestants can burn the same player — there is no exclusivity. The same player can appear in any number of lineups across the field
• Players who are on bye, injured, or inactive in a given week or game period are not burned unless they are placed in a contestant's active lineup and their game begins

As the season progresses and more players are burned, each contestant's pool of available players shrinks. Managing this pool — knowing when to deploy your best players and when to preserve them — is the central strategic challenge of Earn N' Burn.

Each week, contestants submit an active lineup from their available players. The lineup structure will obviously vary by sport. The number of slots, positions, and eligible players are defined for each sport and published on that sport's contest page and are covered in each sport's supplemental rules before the season opens.

Single-Team Maximum — every lineup is subject to a per-team roster limit, with the specific limit published in each sport's supplemental rules. For football: a weekly lineup may include a maximum of 4 players from any single NFL team, counting all positions including K and DST. Lineups exceeding the limit cannot be saved.

Lineup lock behavior varies by sport and is designed to reflect the natural structure of each sport's schedule. Sport-specific lock rules are covered in each sport's supplemental rules section. The general principles that apply across all sports are as follows:

• A player is burned the moment their game or match begins — regardless of whether they record any statistics. What triggers the burn is having the player in an active lineup and is locked when their game or the week begins. The specific timing and lock structure for each sport are covered in that sport's supplemental rules section.
• Lineup slots may be adjustable up until a game begins. Whether and how contestants can swap players before lock depends on the sport. Sport-specific swap rules are detailed in each sport's supplemental rules.
• Some sports use a single weekly lock time (e.g., when the first game of the week begins), after which no lineup changes are permitted for that week. Other sports may allow rolling locks where individual game slots lock independently as games begin.
• Players not in a contestant's active lineup when their game begins are not burned — they remain available for future weeks.

A contestant who does not have a complete lineup submitted at the time of lock will receive zero points for any unfilled slots in that game period.

Scoring rules vary by sport and are published for each contest within each sport's home page. Contestants should review the scoring system for their specific sport before submitting a lineup.

• Scores are based on official statistics as reported by the designated data provider for each sport.
• In the event of a stat correction issued by the official scoring source, Earn N' Burn will apply the correction and recalculate affected scores. Earn N' Burn's decision on all scoring matters is final.
• Earn N' Burn is not responsible for delays in score reporting due to data provider issues or circumstances outside its control.

Earn N' Burn does not use cumulative point totals as the primary season standing. Instead, it uses a weekly ranking system where a lower score is better.

1. Each week, every contestant is ranked against the entire field based on the total ENB points their lineup scores for that week.
2. Ties within a week are handled as shared ranks. If two or more contestants finish a week with identical point totals, they receive the same rank. The next contestant below them is assigned the rank that accounts for all tied contestants above them. For example, if two contestants tie for 1st, both receive a rank of 1 and the next contestant receives a rank of 3. (The 1224 ranking system)
3. A contestant's weekly rank is their weekly score. Finishing 1st earns 1 point. Finishing 50th earns 50 points. The lower the number, the better.
4. Weekly scores accumulate across the season. Each week's rank is added to the contestant's running season total. The contestant with the lowest total at the end of the season wins.

At the conclusion of the season, final standings are determined by each contestant's total accumulated weekly ranking score (lowest wins). In the event of a tie in final season standings, the following tiebreakers are applied in order, starting with #1. Each tiebreaker is only used if the previous one does not resolve the tie — once a tiebreaker produces a winner, the process stops. If the tie remains after all four tiebreakers, the prize is split equally:

1. 1.Total ENB Points — the contestant with more total fantasy points scored across the season wins the tiebreaker. (This will resolve just about every tiebreaker)
2. 2.Most Weekly Wins (#1 Finishes) — the contestant with more first-place weekly finishes wins the tiebreaker.
3. 3.Most Top-10 Weeks — the contestant with more top-10 weekly finishes wins the tiebreaker.
4. 4.Best Single Week Score — the contestant with the highest single-week fantasy point total wins the tiebreaker.
5. 5.Still tied after all four tiebreakers? The prize for that position is split equally between the tied contestants.

Tiebreaker rules apply to all prize positions, not just first place.

Prize pool amounts and payout structures vary by sport and contest. The full payout breakdown for each contest is published on that sport's Prizes page before the season opens. All prizes are paid in U.S. Dollars (USD).

Payout Timeline: Prizes are paid after the season has concluded and all scores have been verified. Payouts are processed automatically via Earn N' Burn's third‑party payment processor to the payment method on file for your account. No prize will be issued until verification is complete. Winners subject to tax reporting must also submit a completed W‑9 before payment is released.

Each individual is permitted only one entry per contest, tied to a single registered account. Registration requires a unique Login ID and Team Name, and is limited to one account per person, per contest.

Individuals residing at the same address — including spouses, family members, and roommates — may each register and hold their own separate entry, provided each person independently meets all eligibility requirements (see Section 02) and manages their own account, lineup decisions, and payment. A shared address, household, or internet connection is not, by itself, evidence of a violation of this rule.

Creating or attempting to create more than one account, or falsifying or misrepresenting personal information — including legal name, address, date of birth, or email — in order to register a second entry or circumvent this limit, is strictly prohibited. Earn N' Burn reserves the right to disqualify all entries associated with a contestant found to have done so, and to withhold or reclaim any associated prize winnings.

• Earn N' Burn reserves the right to disqualify any contestant found to be using automated tools, scripts, or bots to gain an unfair advantage.
• Contestants may not share login credentials or allow another person to manage their entry on their behalf.
• All contestant information provided at registration must be accurate and current. Earn N' Burn reserves the right to verify any information provided.
• Earn N' Burn is not responsible for any technical failures, data errors, or outages that may affect scoring or lineup submission. Scores are based on official statistics as reported by the designated data provider for each sport.
• In the event of a disputed score or stat correction, Earn N' Burn will apply corrections as published by the official scoring source. Earn N' Burn's decision on all scoring matters is final.
• Earn N' Burn reserves the right to cancel or suspend a contest in the event of circumstances beyond its control, including but not limited to a work stoppage, league cancellation, or force majeure event. In such cases, a pro-rated refund or alternative resolution may be offered at the discretion of Earn N' Burn.

Earn N' Burn reserves the right to amend these rules at any time. Material changes will be communicated to registered contestants via the email address provided at registration. Continued participation after notice of a rule change constitutes acceptance of the updated rules.
