Fantasy Noob here. How does it work? Also how are you able to give prizes when registration is free?

We mimic the concept of traditional fantasy sports; you assemble a roster of players (although in our case, they are stocks) and compete that portfolio against the performance of others'. If your overall roster performance is higher than the competition, you win cash prizes. We're able to pay out because of our profitable advertising model. Some of the companies listed use our site to gain exposure for their stock, in an organic, exploratory way.
