Q: How does betting work?

Betting with friends on Poll follows a simple flow. 1) Create a bet with a clear yes or no question and enough detail that everyone can recognise the result. 2) Choose how the outcome will be decided, set any relevant deadline, pick your side, and enter the amount you want to wager. 3) Share the bet link in a text message or group chat. Friends can open the link, sign in if needed, review the exact terms, and choose their side. 4) Once the event has happened, resolve the bet using the method selected when it was created. Participants may vote on the outcome, or the creator may be responsible for choosing it. 5) The winning side receives its share of the pot after settlement. Each participant should read the question, deadline, resolution method, and current terms before staking. Only wager an amount you are comfortable losing.
