How to Set Up Your WhatsApp Group Properly
Step 1: Create the group
WhatsApp → New Group → Add contacts → Group name. What most people miss: a group description that serves as the rules document.
Group description (copy-paste ready): WC 2026 Tipping — everyone tips every matchday before kickoff. Kicktipp Classic scoring (4-3-2-0). Last place buys the first round. Challenge accepted?!
Pin this on day one. It saves ten explanation messages over the tournament.
Step 2: Rules — once, clear, done
- Deadline: before kickoff — always, no exceptions
- Scoring: Kicktipp Classic — 4 pts exact result, 3 goal difference, 2 tendency
- Forgot to tip: 0 points, no sympathy
- Prize: dinner, drinks, a trophy of shame
Good rules prevent 90% of arguments. The other 10% happen during penalties — that's normal.
Step 3: Collecting tips — the real problem
Most WhatsApp tipping games fail here. People send tips as messages, someone forgets, and you spend 30 minutes per matchday counting manually.
The fix: Send a link instead of asking for tips.
tiptilldone.com was built for this. Everyone tips in their browser in 2 minutes, the table updates automatically, no download needed, works directly from WhatsApp.
The Invite: How to Get Everyone In
Bad invite: Hey, we're doing a tipping game, send your tip
Good invite (copy-paste):
🏆 WC 2026 Tipping Game — we're tipping the whole tournament!
No spreadsheet, no chaos. Click the link, tip the games, AI tips along with you.
In? 👇 [your tiptilldone link]
Entry free. Pride unlimited.
Keeping Everyone Engaged
24h reminder before matchday: One short message with the link. Better than daily nagging.
Share the table after each matchday: Curiosity and healthy competitive envy are the strongest motivators.
AI picks as conversation starter: When tiptilldone explains why it sees 68% for Argentina, the group debates it — keeps energy high through the final.
FAQ
Do I need an app? No. tiptilldone runs in the browser. The link works directly from WhatsApp.
