Effective Date: August 22, 2025
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the YGG Play platform (the “Platform” or “YGG Play”), a web-based service operated by Yield Guild Games, a Swiss Association (“YGG,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). The Redeem Platform is a feature of YGG Play and is further governed by the Redeem Platform Supplemental Terms (the “Redeem Supplement”). By accessing or initiating a redemption through the Redeem Platform, you agree to the Redeem Supplement. If these Terms conflict with the Redeem Supplement, the Redeem Supplement controls for Redeem Platform activity.
By accessing or using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you may not access or use the Platform.
These Terms include important provisions that affect your rights, including limitations of liability, disclaimers of warranties, and a binding arbitration agreement under Swiss law with venue in Zug, Switzerland. By using the Platform, you agree to resolve disputes individually through arbitration and waive certain legal rights, including participation in class actions. You may opt out of the arbitration clause within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms by following the instructions in Section 14. If you do not opt out, arbitration will be your sole method of dispute resolution.
YGG Play is a Web3 game discovery and token participation platform designed for players, developers, and token contributors. It offers users the ability to explore blockchain-integrated games, complete quests, earn reward points, stake tokens, and participate in early-stage token launches.
The Platform is made available for informational and entertainment purposes only. No part of the Platform constitutes financial, legal, or investment advice.
We may revise or update these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion. We will notify users of material changes via in-Platform notices or email, where applicable. Continued use of the Platform after such updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
You must be at least sixteen (16) years old—or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, if higher—to access or use the Platform. By using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may only use the Platform under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf.
By using the Platform, you represent and warrant that:
To access most features of the Platform, you must log in using a supported authentication method, such as Google OAuth or a Web3-compatible wallet (e.g., Abstract Wallet via ThirdWeb). You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your login credentials, wallet private keys, seed phrases, and any two-factor authentication mechanisms used.
YGG may suspend or terminate access to the Platform for any user it determines, in its sole discretion, has violated this Section or poses a legal or reputational risk to the Platform.
The Platform includes features for game discovery, quest completion, token staking, points accrual, token swapping, and participation in token launch events. YGG reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any Platform feature at any time without liability.
YGG Play provides a curated interface for discovering and exploring third-party Web3 games. These games are developed and operated by independent third parties. YGG does not operate, control, or assume responsibility for the availability, legality, security, user experience, or accuracy of any third-party game or website. Inclusion of a game on the Platform does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by YGG.
Users may accrue non-transferable, non-redeemable YGG Play Points (“Points”) by completing quests, staking tokens, or engaging in other eligible activities defined by YGG. Users also generate "effort" events when completing qualifying actions. "Effort" is a non-reward metric that contributes to a user's share of the daily Points distribution pool. Points:
Earning Points does not guarantee eligibility for token launches or other rewards. YGG reserves the right to modify the rules, categories, weights, or criteria for Point accrual and distribution at any time. Points are typically calculated and distributed daily at 00:00 UTC based on user effort relative to others in weighted reward categories.
YGG does not guarantee access to or success in any token launch. Allocation tiers are determined algorithmically based on Point pledges. Points used in token launches are permanently burned and are not refundable. All contributions are non-custodial and initiated through on-chain smart contract interactions. YGG does not control or store contributed tokens.
YGG may modify token launch rules, eligibility criteria, contribution windows, or supported tokens at its sole discretion and without prior notice.
Users may stake $YGG (and other supported tokens, when available) via the Platform to accrue Points. Staking requires smart contract approval and on-chain transaction execution. Only full staking and unstaking are permitted. Unstaking within the same day forfeits Points for that day’s calculation.
YGG does not custody staked tokens and is not responsible for staking contract behavior. Staked tokens remain in user-controlled wallets or smart contract vaults. Users are responsible for maintaining blockchain fees and ensuring compatibility with supported staking mechanisms.
The Platform offers a third-party integration with Uniswap or other decentralized exchange protocols to facilitate token swaps. Swaps are non-custodial and fully on-chain. YGG does not facilitate or intermediate swaps and is not responsible for price slippage, failed transactions, insufficient liquidity, or unexpected costs arising from token exchange.
Users acknowledge that all swaps are at their own risk and require Web3 wallet interaction. Swap availability may vary depending on market conditions, protocol functionality, or network congestion.
You agree not to engage in any activity that, in YGG’s sole discretion, interferes with or disrupts the proper functioning of the Platform, violates these Terms, or harms other users. Prohibited activities include, but are not limited to:
You are solely responsible for:
YGG reserves the right to take any enforcement action it deems necessary, with or without notice, including but not limited to:
YGG shall have no liability to you for any enforcement action taken in accordance with this Section.
Rewards made available on the Platform—including Points, token allocations, and other incentives—are discretionary, non-guaranteed, and may be withheld, modified, delayed, or discontinued by YGG at any time for any reason.
Unless otherwise stated, rewards are calculated and distributed on a daily basis following a scheduled snapshot and aggregation process, typically executed at 00:00 UTC. Processing may take additional time depending on network conditions, API availability, or technical constraints. The completion of a qualifying activity (e.g., staking, quest completion, token contribution) does not entitle the user to immediate or fixed rewards.
Any reward amounts, point balances, allocation tiers, or leaderboard rankings displayed on the Platform are provided for informational purposes only. They are subject to change, recalculation, and correction without notice. No display of eligibility or projected rewards constitutes a binding entitlement unless and until formally confirmed by YGG or a smart contract interaction is successfully executed.
YGG reserves the right to reverse, suspend, or cancel any pending or previously issued rewards in the event of:
You are solely responsible for determining whether any reward received from the Platform is taxable in your jurisdiction, and for reporting and remitting any taxes owed. YGG does not provide tax advice or documentation unless required by applicable law.
Some content and features on the Platform—including quests, events, token launches, promotions, branding, assets, educational materials, and reward logic—may be created, administered, or provided by third-party game developers, strategic partners, marketing collaborators, or community contributors (“Partners”).
Partner content may:
YGG does not guarantee the accuracy, availability, legality, safety, or suitability of any Partner content, nor does it assume responsibility for errors, omissions, or changes to that content. Inclusion of Partner content does not imply endorsement or approval by YGG.
Rewards tied to Partner quests, token launches, or other campaigns may be subject to:
YGG does not guarantee that completing a Partner quest or action will result in Points or token rewards. All such activities are subject to system validation and may be voided or adjusted in YGG’s sole discretion.
YGG reserves the right, but not the obligation, to review, moderate, modify, correct, or remove any Partner content or campaign at any time, for any reason, including but not limited to:
YGG is not liable for any damages, lost opportunities, or missed rewards resulting from the modification, removal, or suspension of Partner content or integrations.
Your interaction with any Partner content, including quests, websites, wallets, or tokens, may be subject to that Partner’s own terms of service, privacy policy, token terms, or other documentation. You are solely responsible for reviewing and complying with any such third-party terms.
YGG Play integrates with and depends upon a range of third-party services and infrastructure to operate the Platform. These include, without limitation:
Authentication & Wallets
On-Chain & Token Infrastructure
Backend Infrastructure
Verification & APIs
Analytics & Monitoring
Security
YGG makes no representations or warranties as to the performance, accuracy, legality, or security of these third-party services and does not control their terms of service or availability.
By using the Platform, you acknowledge and accept that:
YGG does not vet, audit, or continuously monitor third-party services. Any decision to integrate a third-party tool or infrastructure layer does not imply that YGG has reviewed or endorses the security, privacy practices, or reliability of such service.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, YGG disclaims all liability for:
YGG reserves the right to modify or replace third-party services at any time and for any reason, including to comply with applicable laws, respond to service outages, or improve Platform performance.
By using the Platform, you acknowledge and accept the inherent risks associated with blockchain networks, smart contracts, and digital assets. These risks may result in the loss of tokens, Points, access, or other functionality, and you agree that you use the Platform at your own risk.
YGG Play relies on blockchain networks such as Ethereum, Abstract, or other supported chains. You understand and agree that:
The Platform interacts with smart contracts for staking, token launches, Points accrual, and reward distribution. You acknowledge that:
You are solely responsible for the security of your Web3 wallet, including:
Digital assets (including tokens distributed or promoted via the Platform) are inherently risky. You acknowledge that:
You agree that YGG shall not be liable for any losses, damages, or disruptions arising from:
YGG Play is provided on an “as-is” and “as-available” basis without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. To the fullest extent permitted by law, YGG disclaims all warranties, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade. YGG does not guarantee that the Platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of harmful components. YGG makes no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, timeliness, or performance of any part of the Platform.
Nothing on the Platform constitutes or is intended to constitute investment, legal, tax, accounting, or financial advice. YGG is not a broker, dealer, investment advisor, fiduciary, exchange, or financial institution. All Platform features—including token launches, staking mechanisms, Points, quests, and user rankings—are provided solely for informational and entertainment purposes. Users are solely responsible for evaluating the risks and suitability of any actions they take based on Platform features and content. You should consult independent professional advisors before making any decisions involving financial risk or regulatory exposure.
YGG does not warrant that the Platform will be continuously available or that access will be uninterrupted, timely, or error-free. The Platform may be subject to scheduled or unscheduled maintenance, outages, technical failures, or updates. Platform features may be changed, suspended, or discontinued without notice. YGG does not guarantee compatibility with all devices, browsers, wallet providers, or internet connections, nor does it guarantee specific uptime, reward processing speeds, or performance benchmarks.
YGG Play features and integrates content developed or submitted by third parties, including game studios, partners, sponsors, and independent contributors. This may include quests, game data, token projects, promotional materials, and educational resources. YGG does not endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for the accuracy, legality, quality, safety, or availability of any such third-party content. Interaction with third-party content or external websites linked through the Platform is at your own risk and may be governed by separate terms and conditions.
No oral or written information, representation, or advice given by YGG, its affiliates, employees, agents, or contractors shall create any warranty or alter any disclaimers expressly set forth in these Terms. Users agree that they have not relied on any representations, promises, or guarantees not expressly stated in these Terms, and YGG disclaims any liability arising from unauthorized statements or unofficial communications.
All content, software, design elements, features, branding, and intellectual property associated with YGG Play—including, without limitation, text, graphics, logos, images, audio, video, code, interfaces, and the compilation and arrangement thereof—are the property of Yield Guild Games or its licensors and are protected under applicable intellectual property laws. YGG and its licensors reserve all rights not expressly granted to users under these Terms. Nothing in these Terms shall be interpreted as granting any license or right to use any of YGG’s intellectual property except as expressly set forth herein.
Subject to your continued compliance with these Terms, YGG grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable license to access and use YGG Play and its content for your personal, non-commercial use. This license does not grant you any rights to modify, copy, reproduce, distribute, transmit, display, perform, create derivative works of, publish, license, or otherwise exploit any content on the Platform without YGG’s express written permission. You may not use YGG’s trademarks, logos, trade dress, or branding in any way that suggests endorsement or association without prior written approval.
If you submit any content to YGG Play, including but not limited to feedback, suggestions, feature requests, bug reports, creative proposals, or other communications (“User Submissions”), you retain ownership of any original intellectual property you hold in those submissions. However, you hereby grant YGG a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, display, distribute, and otherwise exploit your User Submissions for the purposes of developing, improving, marketing, or operating the Platform and YGG’s related products and services. You represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights to make such submissions and to grant the foregoing license, and that your submissions do not violate any third-party rights.

Your notice must include (a) a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; (c) identification of the material alleged to be infringing and its location on the Platform; (d) your contact information; (e) a statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material is not authorized; and (f) a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner. YGG will respond to valid notices in accordance with applicable law and may remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content.
YGG reserves the right to suspend, restrict, or permanently terminate your access to YGG Play at any time, with or without cause, and with or without prior notice. Grounds for termination may include, but are not limited to: violations of these Terms; illegal, fraudulent, abusive, or harmful activity; the use of bots or automated systems; manipulation of Platform mechanics or Points; security concerns; technical disruptions; regulatory or legal compliance requirements; or any other reason deemed necessary by YGG in its sole discretion. YGG is not liable for any damages or losses arising from the termination or suspension of access.
Upon termination of your access to the Platform, all rights granted to you under these Terms will immediately cease. Any Points earned will be forfeited, and any unclaimed rewards or token launch participations may be canceled at YGG’s discretion. Access to your account, historical participation data, and any Platform features will be disabled. If you have staked tokens, they may remain subject to the applicable smart contract withdrawal conditions and timelines. YGG is not responsible for any loss of value, access, or utility resulting from termination.
Any provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including but not limited to: limitations of liability, disclaimers, intellectual property ownership, indemnification obligations, dispute resolution provisions, and any accrued payment or compliance responsibilities.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, YGG and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, and partners shall not be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, punitive, or enhanced damages, or for any loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, digital assets, or other intangible losses arising out of or relating to your use of YGG Play. This exclusion applies regardless of the legal theory, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, and even if YGG has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Without limitation, YGG disclaims liability for losses or damages related to: (a) the use or misuse of Points, tokens, staking, or any other in-Platform features; (b) price volatility, liquidity issues, or performance of tokens offered through the Platform; (c) smart contract bugs, failures, exploits, or forks; (d) failed, delayed, or misrouted transactions; (e) loss of access due to user error, lost private keys, or compromised wallets; (f) Platform outages, bugs, data corruption, or delayed updates; (g) inaccurate or unavailable data from third-party APIs; or (h) actions or omissions by any third-party service provider integrated with the Platform.
To the extent YGG is found liable notwithstanding the foregoing disclaimers, YGG’s total aggregate liability to you for any and all claims arising from or related to YGG Play shall not exceed the greater of: (a) one hundred U.S. dollars (USD $100); or (b) the total amount of fees, if any, paid by you to YGG in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. This cap is cumulative and not per incident.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless YGG, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, and licensors from and against any and all actual or alleged claims, damages, losses, liabilities, fines, penalties, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in connection with:
YGG reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification, in which case you agree to cooperate fully and promptly with YGG’s defense. This indemnity survives any termination of your access to the Platform.
You agree that any claim or cause of action you may have against YGG arising out of or related to your use of the Platform must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose. Failure to file such claim within the prescribed time period constitutes a permanent bar to the claim.
YGG shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations under these Terms where such delay or failure results from causes beyond its reasonable control. This includes, but is not limited to, natural disasters, acts of God, public health emergencies such as pandemics or epidemics, war, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, or political instability. It also includes actions, restrictions, or inaction by governmental authorities, changes in applicable law or regulation (including those affecting digital assets, blockchain services, or internet access), labor disputes, strikes, or other industrial disturbances.
Force majeure further encompasses technological and infrastructure failures outside of YGG’s control, such as failures of internet service providers, telecommunications networks, power grids, or hosting infrastructure. It includes disruptions or malfunctions in blockchain networks, including forks, consensus issues, or smart contract failures; third-party service outages including RPC providers, wallet authentication platforms, decentralized exchanges, or data providers; and cyberattacks, including denial-of-service attacks, intrusions, or other malicious activities targeting the Platform or its infrastructure.
If any such event occurs, YGG may suspend or delay the affected portions of the Platform or its services without liability for the duration of the condition. Should the force majeure event persist beyond a commercially reasonable period, YGG reserves the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the impacted functionality or features, with or without notice, as necessary to protect the integrity of the Platform and its operations.
These Terms and any Dispute (as defined below) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of Switzerland, without regard to conflict of laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply.
Any dispute, controversy, claim, or difference of any kind arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Platform—including but not limited to disputes regarding the existence, formation, validity, interpretation, performance, breach, termination, or consequences of nullity of these Terms, as well as any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them (a “Dispute”)—shall be exclusively and finally resolved by arbitration in accordance with the Swiss Rules of International Arbitration of the Swiss Chambers’ Arbitration Institution (“SCAI”) in force at the time the Notice of Arbitration is submitted.
The arbitration shall be administered by the Swiss Chambers' Arbitration Institution (SCAI) and conducted in accordance with the following parameters: the seat of arbitration shall be Zug, Switzerland, or conducted remotely, at the sole discretion of YGG; the language of the proceedings shall be English; the arbitral tribunal shall consist of one (1) or three (3) arbitrators, also at the discretion of YGG; each party shall bear its own legal costs and share equally in the arbitrators’ fees and administrative expenses, unless the arbitrator rules otherwise in a reasoned decision; and the arbitration may proceed in the absence of a party, provided that proper notice has been given in accordance with the SCAI Rules.
The award of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding on the parties. Judgment upon the award may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties waive any right of appeal, review, or recourse to the extent permitted by law.
This arbitration agreement does not preclude either party from seeking interim, injunctive, or conservatory relief in aid of arbitration from the competent courts of Zug, Switzerland or any other court with jurisdiction. If for any reason arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, the courts of Zug, Switzerland shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any Dispute not subject to arbitration. Each party irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction and waives any objection to venue or forum non conveniens.
You and YGG agree that any Dispute shall be resolved only on an individual basis and not in a class, collective, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of representative proceeding.
If you do not wish to be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions in this Section, you must notify us in writing within thirty (30) days of your first acceptance of these Terms. Your written notification must include your name, wallet address (if applicable), and a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with YGG through arbitration. You must send your opt-out notice to: legal@yieldguild.games.
If you opt out of arbitration, you agree that any legal action or proceeding arising from or related to these Terms or your use of the Platform shall be brought exclusively in the courts competent for the City of Zug, Switzerland, and you irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to venue or forum non conveniens in those courts.
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect. These Terms, together with any additional policies or guidelines posted on the Platform or provided in connection with particular features or services, constitute the entire agreement between you and YGG relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, whether oral or written. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without YGG’s prior written consent, and any purported assignment in violation of this clause shall be null and void. YGG may freely assign or transfer its rights and obligations under these Terms without restriction or notice. Any failure or delay by YGG in enforcing any provision of these Terms shall not be deemed a waiver of that or any other provision. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion. We may update or modify these Terms at any time, and will provide notice of material changes through the Platform interface or other reasonable means. Your continued use of the Platform following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. Notices to YGG under these Terms must be in writing and delivered via email to legal@yieldguild.games.
