Terms of Service
The short version. Felt Society is a free social poker game for adults. You play with virtual chips inside private clubs with people you know. Chips and Diamonds are virtual items: they have no cash value and can never be withdrawn, sold, transferred outside the app or exchanged for money, prizes, goods or services — by us, by a club, by a host or by anyone else. Trying to do so gets accounts and clubs closed.
1. Who we are and what this agreement covers
Felt Society (the “Service”) is operated by KING BOOKING L.L.C-FZ, [Registered address] (“we”, “us”). These Terms are a binding agreement between you and us and apply to the Felt Society mobile apps, our website and any related services. By creating an account or using the Service you accept these Terms, our Privacy Policy and our Community Rules. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. Eligibility
- You must be a natural person aged 18 or older (or the age of majority where you live, if higher). We ask you to confirm this when you register. We close accounts that we have reason to believe belong to anyone younger.
- You may use the Service only where social casino-style games are lawful. The Service is not offered in South Korea or mainland China, and we may restrict other regions. You are responsible for complying with the laws that apply to you.
- One person, one account. You are responsible for everything done through your account and for keeping your password secret. Accounts cannot be sold, gifted, lent or otherwise transferred.
3. A game for entertainment only — no real-money gambling
- The Service is a simulated card game. It does not accept wagers of money, holds no deposits, pays no winnings and awards no prizes of any real-world value.
- Poker terms used in the app — pot, bet, raise, buy-in, blinds, fee, leaderboard, jackpot and similar — describe game mechanics played with virtual chips. They never refer to money.
- You play against other members, not against us. We do not take a side in any hand and have no stake in its result.
- Doing well in a social poker game says nothing about how you would do at real-money gambling.
4. Virtual items: Chips and Diamonds
4.1 What they are
Chips are free play tokens. Club hosts issue them to their members at no cost, and they are used only to take part in games inside that club. Diamonds are a free virtual item. You receive them at no cost from the timed Diamond drops in the app (daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly) and from occasional promotions, and they are used only for optional extras (in the app they unlock nothing; on the web version, club hosts may spend them on optional club tools). Neither Chips nor Diamonds can be bought: the app contains no in-app purchases, no paid content and no links to any purchase. Diamonds can never be turned into Chips, and Chips can never be turned into Diamonds.
4.2 A limited licence, not property
Chips and Diamonds (together, “Virtual Items”) are licensed to you, not sold. When you “earn”, “receive”, “claim” or “win” Virtual Items, you obtain a personal, limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable licence to use them inside the Service, and nothing more. You do not own them. A balance shown in the app is only a measure of the extent of that licence. It is not money, it is not a stored-value or credit balance, and it does not represent any amount that we or anyone else owes you.
4.3 No cash value, no way out of the app
Virtual Items have no monetary value. They cannot be bought, sold, transferred, withdrawn, cashed out, redeemed, or exchanged for money, prizes, goods, services, gift cards, crypto-assets or anything else of value. The Service contains no feature, support process or back-office tool that converts Virtual Items into anything outside the app, and nobody is authorised to offer one on our behalf.
4.4 A closed economy — no sale, transfer or exchange
The Service is designed and licensed to operate only as a closed economy of Virtual Items. You must not, and must not attempt to:
- sell, buy, rent, trade, gift or otherwise transfer Virtual Items or accounts outside the features the app itself provides;
- give, accept, offer or request money or anything of value in connection with Virtual Items, a game result, a club membership or a seat at a table;
- settle, “cash in”, “cash out”, extend credit or keep a money ledger against Chips or game results, whether directly, through a club, a host, a manager, another member, a messaging group or any other third party;
- operate, promote or use any secondary market, exchange, escrow or intermediary that gives Virtual Items a real-world price.
We do not recognise any such transaction. It is void, it is a material breach of these Terms, and we are not responsible for any loss that arises from it. We do not permit, endorse or take part in any arrangement between members or clubs that gives Virtual Items real-world value.
4.5 Enforcement
If we receive a report, or otherwise suspect, that an account or club is connected with real-money play or with the sale or exchange of Virtual Items, we may investigate (including by reviewing gameplay, chip movements, chat reports and links between accounts and clubs), and we may suspend or permanently close the accounts and clubs involved, remove their Virtual Items, refuse future registrations and, where appropriate, pass information to the platform stores or the competent authorities. No compensation is due in those cases.
4.6 Managing Virtual Items
We may set how Virtual Items are obtained and used, change their features, the size and timing of the Diamond drops and their availability, and correct balances credited by mistake, by a software error or through abuse. Diamonds do not expire while your account is open. When an account is deleted or closed, its Virtual Items are cancelled.
5. No purchases
- Felt Society is free. The app has no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no paid content and no links to any external purchase. We never ask for, see or store any payment details.
- Chips and Diamonds are free Virtual Items. They cannot be bought, sold, transferred, redeemed or exchanged — inside the app or anywhere else.
- Diamonds are obtained only from the free timed Diamond drops (daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly) and from occasional promotions. Each drop becomes available again after its waiting period. Drops that are not claimed do not accumulate.
- Anyone who offers to sell you Chips, Diamonds or an account is breaking these Terms. Please report them; do not pay them.
6. Clubs and hosts
- Any member can create a private club, invite people with a club ID, set up tables and tournaments, and hand out free Chips to members. Clubs are private social groups. Club hosts, managers and other role holders are ordinary users; they are not our employees, agents, partners or representatives.
- A “fee” shown in table or tournament settings is a share of virtual Chips that returns to the club’s own chip pool. It has no monetary meaning.
- Hosts must run their clubs in line with these Terms and the Community Rules. In particular, a host must never charge for Chips, membership or seats, never promise to pay out results, and never advertise or imply real-money play. We close clubs that do.
- You are solely responsible for your dealings with other members and clubs. We may, but are not obliged to, look into disputes between members, and we do not arbitrate them.
7. Conduct, chat and fair play
You agree to follow the Community Rules. In summary, you must not harass or abuse others, post unlawful or sexual content, advertise, share links or payment handles, cheat, collude, share hole cards, use bots or assistance software, run multiple accounts at one table, exploit bugs, interfere with the Service or reverse-engineer it. Names, avatars, club names and club logos must not suggest the use of real money. Table chat and club notices pass through an automatic filter; you can report and block any player from their profile or from a chat message, and we review reports within 24 hours.
8. Your content
You keep the rights in what you write or upload (nicknames, chat messages, club names, notices and logos). You give us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, display, moderate and remove that content as needed to run the Service. You confirm you have the right to post it. We may remove any content at our discretion.
9. Our rights in the Service
The Service, including its software, design, text, graphics and trademarks, belongs to us or our licensors. We grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-transferable licence to install and use the app for your own entertainment in line with these Terms.
10. Suspension and termination
- You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time in the app: Me → My account → Delete account. See Delete Account.
- We may suspend or close an account or a club, or limit features, if we reasonably believe these Terms or the Community Rules have been broken, if required by law or by a platform store, or to protect other members or the Service. For serious breaches (including anything in section 4.4, cheating, or abuse of other members) we may act immediately and without notice.
- On termination, your licence to the Service and to all Virtual Items ends. Virtual Items are free and have no monetary value, so no compensation is due for them, used or unused.
11. Changes and availability
We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the Service, and we may update these Terms. If a change is material we will tell you in the app before it takes effect. If you keep using the Service after that, you accept the updated Terms. We try to keep the Service running but do not promise that it will be uninterrupted or error-free.
12. Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We are not responsible for the conduct of any member, host or club, on or off the Service.
13. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, for loss of data, profits or goodwill, or for the loss of Virtual Items (which have no monetary value). The Service is provided free of charge; our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to USD 50. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law, such as liability for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or your mandatory rights as a consumer.
14. Indemnity
To the extent the law allows, you agree to cover our reasonable losses and costs arising from your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the Service, including any attempt to give Virtual Items real-world value.
15. Apple and Google
These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple Inc. or Google LLC. Apple and Google are not responsible for the Service, its content, its maintenance or support, or any claim relating to it. Your use of the app must also comply with the store’s own terms (for Apple, the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions). Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms as they relate to the iOS app and may enforce them against you. You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a government embargo and are not on any government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
16. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by [Governing law and venue], without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you may bring a claim in your local courts. Please contact us first at daniel@kingbooking.io — most issues can be solved quickly.
17. General
If a part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them to a successor of the Service. These Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Community Rules are the whole agreement between you and us about the Service.
