What is Flex Friday on PrizePicks?

Flex Friday is a weekly promo by PrizePicks that is active on Friday of each week. During this promo, you will be able to make a PrizePicks protected play up to $20. That means that once you make a pick after you have activated the promo, the first $20 you spend on making picks will not be lost, even if your pick loses.

Players love the PrizePicks Flex Friday format because it lets them insure their pick and reduces the chance of losing money.

PrizePicks Flex Friday rules – How does Flex Friday Work?

I have been familiar with PrizePicks Flex Friday for a long time and it previously had some pretty strict rules to meet. However, the site has recently revamped the promo to make it more generous.

The insured play feels like getting a PrizePicks free entry and I am here for it! Here are some of the things you should know about the promo and how it works:

1. PrizePicks previously had this rule that you would have to pick a player who was in action that Friday. They have since changed this so you can now pick any player, even one who isn’t playing that day.
2. You always have to set your entry format as Flex Entry. It doesn’t matter if it changes at some point (to e.g. the Power Play format). As long as it started as a Flex Entry, you will be eligible to cash out.
3. You have to register your entry between noon and 11:59 p.m. ET on Friday. If not, your entry won’t qualify for Flex Friday.
4. Payouts are now instant. If you win, either full or partially, you will receive your payout instantly, instead of having to wait for a couple of days.

The revamp of Flex Friday has made me warm to the promo even more. I was always frustrated with the players-in-action rule, but the flexibility that we have now to pick ANY player has definitely been a positive move.
