About Sharply

Sharply is a sports analytics platform. We provide model-generated probabilities, edge analysis, and auto-graded performance tracking. We do not accept bets, process wagers, or facilitate gambling transactions.

The analysis we publish is educational and informational. Any wagering decisions you make based on Sharply's analysis are yours alone, and you bear full responsibility for those decisions and their outcomes.

Know the Signs

Gambling can become a problem when it affects your life in ways like:

• Spending more time or money gambling than intended
• Chasing losses by making larger or more frequent wagers
• Borrowing money, using credit cards, or selling assets to gamble
• Lying to family, friends, or coworkers about gambling
• Feeling restless, anxious, or irritable when not gambling
• Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or depression
• Missing work, school, or important commitments because of gambling

If any of these resonate, please consider reaching out to one of the helplines below. These services are free, confidential, and available around the clock.

Self-Assessment

The National Council on Problem Gambling offers a free, anonymous self-assessment that takes about 5 minutes. It can help you understand whether your gambling may be becoming a problem.

Helplines

All of these services are free and confidential. Most are available 24/7.

Self-Exclusion

Most US sportsbooks allow users to self-exclude from wagering for a set period (e.g. 6 months, 1 year, or permanently). If you have an account with a sportsbook, you can request self-exclusion through their responsible gambling settings or customer support.

Some states also maintain voluntary self-exclusion lists that apply across licensed operators in that state. Contact your state's gaming commission for details.

Treatment and Support

Supporting Someone Else

If you're worried about someone else's gambling, the resources above are also for you. Problem gambling affects families and loved ones, not just the person gambling. Gam-Anon offers peer support specifically for family members and friends.

Our Commitment

Sharply will never knowingly serve users under the legal gambling age in their jurisdiction. We require all users to confirm they are 21 or older (or the legal age in their state, whichever is greater) before accessing the platform.

If you feel the content on Sharply is contributing to harmful gambling behavior, you can cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. If you need help canceling or want to discuss other options, contact us through the app.
