By actively playing START7, you can earn awards and thus increase your account balance and level. You can view the awards you have earned in your profile.

The “Matchday winner” and “Points picker” awards are always calculated 24 hours before the closing of the next matchday so that any corrections can be taken into account.

Yes, a dedicated server has been set up on the Discord platform for this purpose, which anyone interested can simply join. There are various categories on the server with different channels in which every manager can talk to other handball fans about the Fantasy Manager or their own club.
After a short registration and acceptance of the community rules, every user has direct access to the various channels.

In START7, we do not define a match day according to the official LIQUI MOLY HBL match schedule, but sort the matches into match days according to their chronological order.

By default, we combine all matches that take place from Thursday to Monday into one match day in START7. All players you have lined up up to 5 minutes before kick-off of the first match will therefore score points for the matches from Thursday to Monday, regardless of the matchday allocation according to the official match schedule.

For example, if a match on matchday 18 is postponed to matchday 23, the team lined up for matchday 23 will also score points for the make-up match on matchday 18, even if the match officially belongs to an earlier matchday (according to the LIQUI MOLY HBL match schedule). At that time, you will also only receive the points for the make-up match of the official matchday 18.

In the same way, a team can play twice on a match day if matches have to be postponed. In this case, the players who belong to these teams and are lined up before the end of the countdown will score twice on that matchday.

If matches have to be played outside the standard time slot (Thursday to Monday), a special match day will be played. Again, you must field your squad up to 5 minutes before kick-off to earn points for the match. The countdown reminds you of this. The same rules apply as on a normal match day.

You can see exactly which matches are included in the calculation in the match overview in the lobby, which is always displayed at least 12 hours before the first match kicks off.

Every user who registers for START7 for the first time receives the premium membership free of charge for 30 days. After the 30 days have expired, you will automatically be shown a selection window in the app where you can decide whether you want to continue playing in the basic or premium version. If you choose premium, you will automatically be taken to the subscription management of the respective App Store and can conclude your subscription there.

Please note that it can take a few days after taking out a subscription before the App Store registers your subscription and the premium features are activated in START7. The terms and conditions of the respective App Store apply.

If you want to switch to the basic version, you must decide which league you want to continue playing in via the selection window.

After the trial subscription has expired, you can manage your subscriptions via the “personal data” section in your profile.

Currently, leagues cannot be deleted.

Simply leave the league via the league overview by clicking on the “Leave league” button at the bottom and create a new league if required.

All admins of a league can send friends and acquaintances an invitation link to the league by clicking on the button “Invite other friends” in the league overview in the menu “League”.

If you create a league, you can invite your friends directly via an invitation link.

By purchasing a premium membership for €1.99/month or €17.99/year, you can unlock additional features:

Premium users of START7 get access to up to 10 leagues at the same time, can call up the live matchday and view further statistics on market values and the HPI performance of the players. Scoring takes place directly live during a match. Premium users also have access to other managers’ line-ups and do not see third-party advertising content.

To become a premium user, open your profile area in the app and press “Membership” there. The “Get premium” button will take you to the relevant App Store where you can take out the premium membership. Your subscription is automatically renewed in the selected billing period (monthly/yearly). Please note that your Premium subscription is then linked to the App Store ID you use to complete the payment process.

When you register for START7 for the first time, we will give you a 30-day trial of the premium membership. After the 30 days have expired, you will automatically switch to the basic START7 subscription. You can only manage your subscriptions after the 30 days have expired.

The points development is based on the performance data of your players from reality. The basis for calculating the points awarded to the individual players is the Handball Performance Index, or more precisely the HPI points. For each match action during a match, your players receive minus and plus points, which determine the amount of your bonus at the end of a match day. The more HPI points a player has collected, the better his performance was in the match. For the calculation, we use 25 statistical values (performance and position data) for each player in the LIQUI MOLY HBL, which we collect together with our data service providers.

Unlike the HPI points, where the starting value is between 50 an 100, the point calculation for START7 starts at 0.

You can find more information about the HPI here.

The weighting and classification of the individual game actions is different for goalkeepers and field players.

Ideally, all pictures of our Bundesliga players are up-to-date. In exceptional cases, it may happen that the picture has to be updated after a change of players or when young players are used. We ask for your patience in these cases.

The START7 servers, the staff and the further development of the app have their price. In this respect, we have to cover the costs incurred. Therefore, only premium users get access to our live systems and more extensive insights into statistics. We strive every day to offer you a product that is “worth the money”.
