In 2025, the SuperContest Classic is again expected to feature 11 in-season bonuses in addition to paying out the Top 20 overall places at the end of the NFL regular season with a $1,500 entry fee, no rake (100% payback) and an increased 10-entry limit this year. The SuperContest is well-known for allowing entrants to pick 5 NFL sides every week. Over the course of the season, the Westgate will pay out the Top 3 places ($15,000 to first, $10,000 to second and $5,000 to third) at the end of Week 3, Week 6, Week 9, Week 12, Week 15 and Week 18. Then there will be an additional 3 bonuses paid out to the Top 4 ($25k to first, $15k to second, $10k to third and $5k to fourth after Weeks 6, 12 and 18. In addition, two more bigger bonuses will be paid out for the periods between Weeks 1-9 and 10-18, with the Top 5 earning prize money as follows: $50,000 to 1st place, $30,000 to 2nd, $20,000 to 3rd, $10,000 to 4th and $5,000 to 5th.
The Westgate SuperBook also previously added a high-stakes, winner-take-all version called SuperContest Gold with a $5,000 entry fee in 2017 (our client Stag Capital won it that year). SuperContest Gold has all the same rules as the original SuperContest, including number of weekly picks (5) and deadlines. The only differences are the higher entry fee, 1 winner awarded 100% of the pot and limited to 3 entries with no in-season bonuses.
Two new football contests have been added this year — SuperContest Survivor and SuperContest College. The SuperContest Survivor football contest has a $5,000 entry fee with a max of 10 entries and is based solely on the 18-week NFL regular season.
The SuperContest College football contest has a $500 entry fee with a max of 10 entries and covers 14 weeks. The deadline to sign up for SuperContest College is Friday, August 29 at 3 p.m. (PT) because it kicks off in Week 1 of the college football season.
Contestants can start signing up for any of these Westgate football contests at the SuperBook on Tuesday, July 1. The final deadline for the NFL contests is Saturday, September 6 at 3 p.m. SuperContest Weekend is scheduled for August 15 and 16 this year too featuring a slot tournament and golf outing, and you can win free entries during the festivities.
