We've partnered with Bankroll
We're excited to share that GridRival is teaming up with Bankroll, a new product making waves in the gaming space!
What is Bankroll?
Bankroll runs a digital wallet built for gamers. One wallet lets you play across many real-money games, and you can move your funds to other gaming operators, like Kalshi and Courtyard in just a click. Going forward, Bankroll will be the home for your GridRival Picks balance. Bankroll also plans to bring GridRival's Picks game onto their platform in the weeks ahead.
Why we're doing this
In short, we are turning our focus back to season-long fantasy leagues.
Running a regulated real-money gaming product ended up costing a lot more, in both money and focus, than it was able to return for a product of our size. Rather than keep pouring resources into something that does not add up, we made a decision: go back to what GridRival does best.
That is season-long fantasy motorsports. It is where we started and it is what our players love most. Building the real-money side pulled our attention away from the League product, and our users felt it. This partnership lets Bankroll handle the real-money side on a platform built for it, while we put our energy back into the fantasy that made us popular.
What happens to the money in my GridRival Wallet?
Your funds are moving to Bankroll, which will become the custodian of your GridRival balance effective immediately. Bankroll will hold your money under its own wallet security and terms, and you'll be able to play or withdraw once your account is set up on their platform.
We expect access to be ready shortly after the transfer. Setting up your account takes just a few steps, including a quick identity check.
To get started, open GridRival, and follow the directions to begin your transfer.
For questions about your wallet or setting up your Bankroll account, please contact Bankroll support at [email protected].
There's some more detail and answers to common questions below...
Bankroll transfer: common questions
How to reach your balance
GridRival has partnered with Bankroll to continue operating GridRival Picks. If you have a balance to transfer, you’ll see a prompt to set up your Bankroll account and move your funds over.
Don’t see a prompt?
Open GridRival and go to your Profile.
If you have a balance, you’ll see an “Access Funds” link. Tap it to set up your Bankroll account (if you haven’t already) and complete the transfer.
Already completed setup? Your balance has moved to Bankroll - GridRival no longer holds it. You can get help by contacting [email protected].
The prompt is not appearing
The usual cause is an email mismatch - ensure you are using the same email address across GridRival and Bankroll. If you need help here, contact us with the email address you are using for GridRival and the email address you are using for Bankroll, and we will help.
Is there a deadline?
There is no fixed deadline, but you should make sure you're set up with Bankroll so you can decide what to do with any remaining funds.
Can I get a refund instead?
No. Refunds are no longer available through GridRival. Your balance transferred to Bankroll so the way to access it is to complete the transfer and then withdraw from Bankroll.
If you are having trouble withdrawing once your Bankroll account is set up, that is one for them: [email protected].
What about promos, bonuses and free plays?
Promotional credit did not transfer. Bonuses, referral credit, profit boosts and free plays were tied to Picks inside GridRival, and they ended when Picks closed. Only real money moved across to Bankroll.
Tax documents
1099s for 2025 play have already been issued. Documents for 2026 will be issued in due course.
I cannot verify my ID
You almost certainly do not need to. ID verification was only ever required for Daily Fantasy cash games, never for season-long leagues. Cash games have closed inside GridRival, so nothing here needs you to verify any more.
To play leagues, open the navigation menu at the top left and tap Leagues.
If you are trying to verify in order to reach a balance, that is now part of Bankroll's setup rather than ours.
I cannot deposit any more
That is expected. Deposits existed for Picks and cash games, both of which have closed inside GridRival. The Leagues game is free, so there is nothing to deposit for.
If you want to play paid games, that is now Bankroll. New players download the Bankroll app, complete verification, and deposit there.
It says I cannot play where I live
Good news: the Leagues game is open to everyone. The state and location restrictions only ever applied to cash games, and those have closed.
If you were previously blocked, or you saw your region on an eligible-states map, none of that applies to leagues.
Who to contact about what
Bankroll handles your balance, withdrawals, deposits, verification for paid play, and anything else about money. Contact them at [email protected].
We can still help with problems with the transfer itself and anything to do with the free Leagues game.
