Legal Framework & Platform Rules

Terms of Service, Operating Jurisdictions & Guardrails

Review the official terms governing Kutt's neutral peer-to-peer skill contest platform based on outside counsel's legal memorandum (Artaev at Law PLLC), covering our 39 permissible operating jurisdictions, per-game geo-fencing requirements, and six core structural guardrails.

LEGAL COMPLIANCE STRUCTURE

Operating Jurisdictions & Eligibility

39Approved Jurisdictions

38 U.S. states plus Washington, D.C. analyzed as legally permissible under outside counsel's legal memorandum.

12Excluded Jurisdictions

Arizona is intentionally excluded from this operating plan, along with 11 memo-excluded states: CO, IA, LA, MD, MI, MT, NV, NH, NJ, SC, WA.

18+Age Limit & Geofencing

The platform is generally restricted to participants aged 18 and older. Location services must be enabled for every game.

Florida Compliance & Per-Game Geofencing

The legal memorandum specifically states that, to ensure compliance in Florida, prizes available in Florida are made up exclusively of the entry fees of the players participating in the skill games. Furthermore, the Officer's Certificate requires location services to be enabled for every game so Kutt can apply state-specific criteria.

NON-NEGOTIABLE STRUCTURAL PARAMETERS

Six Core Operating Guardrails

1. No House Position

Kutt does not participate in contests or profit from who wins.

2. No Developer-Funded Prizes

The Officer's Certificate states Kutt does not pay contest prizes from Developer funds.

3. No Operator-Set Odds

Kutt does not set or adjust odds, lines, or spreads. Players negotiate individualized terms.

4. Flat-Fee Revenue Model

Revenue is from flat administrative fees and/or subscriptions for analytics and gameplay tools—not variable house revenue tied to outcomes.

5. No Pooling / Layoff

The platform does not pool wagers or act as a traditional book.

6. Not Fantasy Sports

Direct P2P skill competition, not fantasy-team drafting or salary-cap fantasy play.
