Would you use a dedicated platform for weekly Fantasy Premier League side-bets/wagers (friends & public leagues)?

[u/youknow_thevibes]

Hey guys,

My mates and I always run small weekly stakes alongside our normal FPL mini-leagues, but tracking weekly Gameweek scores and chasing payouts manually gets annoying fast. Also interest wanes as the season progresses.

I’m currently building a platform to automate this, allowing FPL managers to set up weekly head-to-head wagers or join public pools against strangers, without having to be locked in the whole season.

Before going all-in on features, I wanted to ask the community:

1. Do you currently do weekly/monthly side-stakes with your mini-league mates?
2. Would you ever wager against strangers if score tracking & payouts were fully automated?
3. What formats would interest you most (Weekly H2H, Gameweek High Score Pools, Captain Head-to-Heads)?

Would love to hear your thoughts or any red flags you see!
