FunPicks By Sparket and Sportzino: A New Social Prediction Experience for Reality TV and Pop Culture Fans

Sportzino has officially launched FunPicks, a social prediction experience for the latest pop culture, reality TV events, and even sports pools.

What is FunPicks?

FunPicks is a pool system offered by Sportzino that allows you to make choices on what is going to happen in pop-culture events, reality TV shows, and even some sporting events.

Unlike a traditional sportsbook, the odds and payout will change and vary based on where the action is on any given event.

The Sparket-Sportzino Collaboration 

Sparket joined Sportzino to launch FunPicks, its first entrance into the sweepstakes market.

Although Sparket is a relatively unknown company, they’ve also recently partnered with PENN Entertainment and Soboba Casino Resort.

Over the past three quarters, Sparket has posted a 300% increase in growth and will likely continue to expand into more and more online casinos in the near future.

How FunPicks Works

It’s quite simple, actually: you will select the market in which you want to make a prediction and select your preferred outcome. If that outcome happens, you win!

The important thing to remember is that the payout you see when you place your prediction may vary; you’re not guaranteed to receive the payout as the prizes will be split based on the number of predictions placed on the event and the percentage of Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins placed on the outcome.

Sports Predictions

In addition to the full sports predictions markets offered by Sportzino, they’ve also added several pools where you can make predictions. It allows you to select things like which team will score the most points in a week, which quarterback will throw for the most yards, etc.

Pop Culture Fun

The real benefit – or unique aspect – of FunPicks by Sportzino is the ability to make predictions on pop culture and reality TV show events.

They offer markets for popular TV shows like Survivor, Dancing with the Stars, The Bachelor and Bachelorette, and more!

You can also find markets for celebrities, like currently, if Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will be engaged in 2025.

This is a relatively new type of prediction, so you can expect the shows and markets offered to continue to expand in the coming weeks.

Using Sweepstakes Coins and Gold Coins for Picks

Similar to all slots and games offered on Sportzino, you can make predictions using both Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins.

Gold Coins are strictly for fun, and any winnings can not be redeemed for real prizes. Sweep Coins, however, can be redeemed for real prizes.

I would definitely recommend using Gold Coins to start – it’s a new type of prediction offered, and although you may think you know the market better than anyone, it’s probably a good idea to get some practice reps in before you play for real prizes.

The Pari-Mutuel Prediction Model 

Rather than simply setting odds on something to happen and receiving the payout if your prediction is correct, FunPicks uses the Pari-Mutuel prediction model.

This is essentially a pool system that combines the amount of money (or, in this case, Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins) and awards the percentage to whoever makes a correct prediction.

This is the same model used in horse racing, so the payout suggested when placing your FunPicks prediction is simply a prediction at the time of placement. These payouts could either get better or worse depending on other people’s selections.
