Streak for the Cash is a sports betting website founded by Travis Bieker in September 2023. It is notable for offering a free-to-play sports betting platform where players have the chance of winning without having to make any deposit.
History
Streak for the Cash, established by Travis Bieker on September 7, 2023, is a risk-free sports betting game, distinguishing itself from a prior 2008 version that shared its name but was subsequently closed in September 2022. This innovative game requires no deposits and provides sports bettors with many different sports betting options. The 7-Day Challenge allows players to test their sports betting skills to see if they can transform $1.00 into $250.00 within a week. Another option for players is "The Streak" which involves correctly making 15, 17, 19, or 21 consecutive bets. The Daily Contests feature gives you a $100 starting balance and requires you to make at least 7 bets with a maximum of 10 bets. The betting range spans from a minimum of $7.00 to a maximum of $25.00. The top 3 places get paid to the highest balance at the end of each day. The website is open to all countries.

Legality
Online gambling is illegal in the United States. Most states in the USA require three elements to be present for it to be considered “gambling”. These elements include prize, chance, and “consideration” or providing something of value to be eligible to participate. Streak for the Cash does not allow users to deposit any money into their accounts. Each player is awarded $0.10 of virtual cash which allows anyone to join and play. Since there is no “consideration” from the user, the game is considered legal. However, the NCAA's Agent, Gambling and Amateurism Activities division stated that engaging in Centsports-style gaming "would violate NCAA sports wagering legislation." The federal ban on sports betting was removed by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2018 which allowed individual states to license legal sportsbooks. Political opposition and complex tribal relationships prevent some states from legalizing it while others have chosen to legalize sports betting. 37 states and Washington, D.C., have legalized sports betting and generated $3 billion in state and local taxes for public education, health care, infrastructure, and more. A large percentage of Americans agree with the decision to legalize sports betting. Gaming law regulates the actions of casinos, online gambling, and all other forms of gaming. All legal gambling operations require consideration, chance, and a prize for it to be considered legal gambling. Consideration is a legal term that requires each party to give something of value. In the context of gambling, this translates to the person engaging in gambling must put some money at risk. Chance means that the outcome must not have a pattern or predictability, it must be random. A prize refers to the person engaging in gaming must have the ability to obtain property that he or she did not own at the time of the gamble. If any one of these 3 requirements is not fulfilled then it is not considered gambling.
