Frequently Asked Questions
Gamercraft does not currently restrict multiple Gamercraft accounts from sharing the same bank account, PayPal email, or payment method. However:
- Multi-accounting itself is not allowed — the platform's terms prohibit a single person operating more than one active Gamercraft account for tournament play. If two accounts share identifying signals (same payment method, same device fingerprint, etc.) and one or both are flagged for multi-accounting, the anti-cheat team may sanction.
- Family / shared-device cases are reviewed case-by-case. If you legitimately share a household with another player who also uses Gamercraft, contact support proactively so the team can document the relationship.
Do not assume "shared bank account = always allowed". The payment-method sharing is permitted; the multi-accounting rule still applies.
The Gamercraft backing program lets verified competitors receive financial backing for tournament entries. Eligibility is set by the team and updated periodically.
Approximate criteria (subject to change — verify current rules via lookup_faq for "backing eligibility"):
- Verified Gamercraft account (KYC complete via SumSub).
- Active tournament participation history within the last 90 days.
- Demonstrated competitive track record (rank requirements vary by game).
- Account in good standing — no active anti-cheat sanctions.
- Compliance with the backing terms of service.
Backing is approved on a case-by-case basis by the operations team. We do not auto-approve based on a single metric. If you want to be considered, your application is reviewed manually.
PIX (Brazil's instant-payment system) availability on Gamercraft varies. We do not maintain a hardcoded "PIX is on/off" answer in support — agents must check live system configuration via get_system_configs before quoting status.
If the user reports they cannot find PIX as a payment option:
- The agent will verify the live config.
- If PIX is currently disabled, the agent will say so honestly without inventing a restoration timeline.
- The user can use PayPal as an alternative for both deposits and withdrawals.
Do not assume PIX is "always available" or "always disabled" — verify per session.
Withdrawals on Gamercraft are processed via the payout method you've configured (PayPal, bank transfer via Trolley, etc.).
- Minimum withdrawal: $5.00 USD equivalent. Smaller balances cannot be withdrawn but can be used in-platform.
- Processing time: varies by method.
- PayPal: typically 1–3 business days once approved.
- Trolley bank transfer: 3–7 business days depending on country.
- Returns from PayPal can take an additional 3–7 days for the credit to reappear in your Gamercraft wallet.
- No monthly limit on number of withdrawals, though large withdrawals may trigger an additional verification step.
If your withdrawal is in on_hold status see the Silly Proposal article. If a withdrawal was returned by PayPal but the credit hasn't appeared in your wallet, contact support — this requires manual reconciliation.
When you change your linked game account on Gamercraft, the new account must be the same rank or higher than the account currently linked, independently per game.
There is no absolute minimum rank floor. We do not require Diamond, Gold, or any other tier as a global threshold. The check is purely "same or higher than your current".
Examples:
- Currently linked: Bronze 4 → new account must be Bronze 4 or higher (Silver, Gold, etc. all work)
- Currently linked: Unranked → new account must be Unranked or higher (any rank works)
- Currently linked: Diamond 2 → new account must be Diamond 2 or higher (Diamond 1, Master, GM, Challenger)
The change requires confirmation through the in-chat account-comparison widget. Riot ID changes outside Gamercraft (in-game name changes, region transfers) sometimes require a manual data refresh — contact support if your linked account doesn't reflect a recent change.
Gamercraft is a tournament platform that bridges the gap between casual players and pro players. We make it easy to win cash prizes and rewards through our skill-based ranked tournaments.
Anti-Cheating & Fair Play
Arrow is our proprietary anti-cheating system that analyzes accounts from the moment you sign up, through tournament registration, and during and after tournament participation. This ensures the most fair and competitive playing environment for all players.
Division System

As you participate in our tournaments, we gather more data about your competitive abilities, which allows us to promote or demote your Division.

Win matches to climb! Defeating a higher-ranked competitor moves you up to their rank. If you lose, your rank drops along with everyone below you by one.
Match Selection

No, matches are automatically assigned. Our algorithm schedules matches based on availability to ensure fair and timely competitions, so direct challenges are not possible.

Gamercraft Backing System FAQ for Backers
What is the Gamercraft Backing System?
The Backing System is a new feature that allows backers to support their favorite competitors in Gamercraft leagues. By understanding the ladder dynamics and the King of the Hill feature, backers can make informed choices and invest in competitors they believe in.
How does the ladder system work?
The ladder system is straightforward. Competitors climb the ladder by winning matches. If a player defeats someone ranked above them, they take the higher-ranked spot, and the losing player (along with everyone ranked below) drops one rank. This keeps competition dynamic and rewards consistent winners.
What is the King of the Hill system?
The King of the Hill feature crowns the #1 ranked competitor as the King. Any player, regardless of current ranking, can be matched with the King, adding a high-stakes opportunity for an upset. If the King loses, the challenger becomes the new King, while the former King drops to Rank 2, and everyone below Rank 2 drops one rank.
Why should backers care about the King of the Hill system?
For backers, the King of the Hill system offers a chance to support an underdog who could dethrone the King and jump straight to the top. This feature rewards backers who recognize potential in lower-ranked players who could make bold moves and achieve quick, high-value gains.
How does relegation work, and why does it matter for backers?
Relegation adds pressure for consistent performance. If a competitor loses 3 out of their last 5 matches to players with a 1.2x multiplier or below, they drop multiple ranks. This is essential information for backers who may want to adjust their support based on a competitor's recent performance trends.
Can backers influence who players compete against?
No, all matches are automatically assigned based on availability and a matching algorithm. This keeps the competition fair and ensures players can't cherry-pick opponents.
How do I know when to back a competitor?
Stay aware of the King of the Hill matchups and any relegation risks. Observing how a competitor performs under these conditions can reveal how they handle high-stakes situations, helping you make more strategic backing decisions.
What's the best way to track a competitor's progress?
Follow the ladder ranking updates and keep an eye on King of the Hill challenges. These events are where major shifts in rank occur, and they often signal which competitors are on an upward or downward trajectory.
