The Survivor Leaderboard Explained

Your Leaderboard position is based on a single FINAL SCORE, made up of two parts:
•    How many World Cup Knockout matches you've placed a qualifying bet on
•    How much you've won across all your qualifying bets

The amount of matches you bet on carries greater weight than your total winnings. The full calculation is set out below.

Step 1 — Your Match Score (out of 100)
This is simply the percentage of Knockout matches you've bet on, out of the 32 total.
Match Score  =  (Matches You've Bet On ÷ 32) × 100
A customer who has placed a qualifying bet on all 32 matches has a Match Score of 100. A customer on 16 matches has a Match Score of 50.

Step 2 — Your Winnings Score (out of 100)
This is your total winnings (stake plus profit combined) measured against a cap of R20,000. Winning R20,000 or more across the promotion gives you the maximum Winnings Score of 100 — winning more than that doesn't add anything further.
Winnings Score  =  (Total Winnings ÷ R20,000) × 100  (capped at 100)

Step 3 — Combine Match and Winnings Score - Weighted
Your Match Score and Winnings Score are then combined — but not equally. Matches bet on count for 65% of your FINAL SCORE, while winnings count for only 35%.
FINAL SCORE  =  (Match Score × 65%)  +  (Winnings Score × 35%)
As a result, the number of matches a customer has placed qualifying bets on carries close to twice the weight of their winnings amount in the FINAL SCORE.

Example

Thabo:  Match Score = (32÷32)×100 = 100.   Winnings Score = (2,000÷20,000)×100 = 10.   FINAL SCORE = (100×65%) + (10×35%) = 65 + 3.5 = 68.5
Sarah:  Match Score = (7÷32)×100 = 21.9.   Winnings Score = (8,000÷20,000)×100 = 40.   FINAL SCORE = (21.9×65%) + (40×35%) = 14.2 + 14 = 28.2
In this example, Thabo's FINAL SCORE is higher than Sarah's despite Sarah's larger winnings amount, illustrating how the match count component affects the calculation.
