Comparison
Bobibets vs Kicktipp
A quarter-century of prediction pools, endlessly configurable… and a spreadsheet for a face. Your office pool deserves better than that.
Last updated: June 12, 2026
The matchup in two sentences
Kicktipp is the elder statesman of office prediction pools: born in Germany a quarter of a century ago, 2M+ members, the absolute reference for company tipping games. Bobibets is a free prediction game with virtual points, launched in 2026, where every pick carries a real bookmaker odd and you manage a stake — without ever risking a euro.
What Kicktipp does better than us
Let’s start here, because they’ve earned it — and it’s heavyweight stuff:
- A quarter of a century of existence. Kicktipp has been running since the early 2000s. That makes it one of the most battle-tested prediction tools out there.
- Free up to 300 players per league. For a giant company pool, nobody beats that. Our free plan caps at 2 active leagues — a different size category entirely.
- Ad-free for €4.99 a YEAR. Not per month — per year. On price, that’s unbeatable, and we won’t pretend otherwise.
- Unmatched rule customisation, plus multi-sport coverage. If your pool wants its own house scoring across several sports, that’s their turf.
In short: custom rules for 200 colleagues across multiple sports? Go with Kicktipp, honestly.
What Bobibets does that Kicktipp doesn’t
Your predictions have odds. On Kicktipp, you tick a result and score rulebook points. On Bobibets, every match shows real bookmaker odds, frozen the moment you bet. Payout = stake × (odds − 1): a gutsy pick on an underdog pays more than a safe pick on the favourite. Full rules here.
You manage a stake. Sniper mode (1 bobi per match, pure precision) or All-In (a bankroll, free stakes). You don’t “fill in a grid” — you make decisions.
Social is a feature, not a score list. A Wall of Fame AND a Wall of Shame (the worst get ranked too — banter is official), living leaderboards, and the Loto Bobi: your league’s consensus ticket, showing the group’s majority pick on every match.
Zero ads, even on the free plan. Kicktipp’s free version shows intrusive ads. We run no banners at all: monetisation comes from an optional subscription.
A mobile-first experience. Kicktipp’s spreadsheet-style interface is described as dated even by third-party reviews, and their iOS app has barely registered in France (4.5/5 but only 44 ratings — French App Store, June 2026). Bobibets is a modern web app, built for the phone you pull out at the final whistle.

We’re honest
Bobibets is a young product, launched in 2026, with a small community. If you want the pool your whole company already uses, with 25 years of reliability behind it, Kicktipp wins. We only do football (5 leagues + the 2026 World Cup), we’re a web app — no native app — and their €4.99/year ad-free tier crushes our pricing. All of that is true.
Also true: no spreadsheet-style pool will ever tell you whether your pick was bold or safe. With us, the odds say it for you — and the Wall of Shame handles the rest. Coming from exact-score games? Check our comparison with Mon Petit Prono too.

FAQ
What is a good Kicktipp alternative for an office prediction pool?
It depends on your pool. If you need fully custom rules for 200 colleagues across multiple sports, Kicktipp is still the reference — free up to 300 players per league. If you want football with real bookmaker odds, stake management and banter (a Wall of Fame and a Wall of Shame), Bobibets is the modern alternative: free, ad-free, with a private league set up in one minute.
Is Kicktipp free?
Yes, up to 300 players per league, with ads in the free version. The ad-free option costs €4.99 per year — unbeatable on price. Bobibets is free AND ad-free by default (up to 2 active leagues on the free plan): we monetise through an optional subscription, not banners.
What is the real difference between Bobibets and Kicktipp?
Odds and stakes. On Kicktipp, you submit a prediction and score points against a rulebook. On Bobibets, every prediction carries a real bookmaker odd, frozen the moment you bet, and you manage a virtual-point stake: payout = stake × (odds − 1). A bold pick on an underdog pays more than a safe pick on the favourite.
Is Bobibets a real-money betting site?
No. Bobibets is a free prediction game played with virtual points (bobis). Real odds are only used to weight point payouts: you never deposit money and you can never lose any.
