Game
A new game clears the called numbers and winners. Players keep their cards unless you issue new ones. Round number wrong (or you forgot to turn the round count on)? Use ◀ ▶ to set the right round: it keeps counting on by itself from there.
Get-ready timer
Shows every player a countdown, with the name of the line that is about to start, before the game starts and between the prizes (Line 1, Line 2 and Full House; in Kashock, Line 1 and Full House). When the countdown ends, numbers start being called automatically. Keep this host page open.

Playing for
Special game
Set the Te Corner prize in the Prizes and Fee tab (percentage of the prize pool, or typed by hand) together with Line 1, Line 2 and Full house.
Akea ni bo is a normal game (Line 1, Line 2, Full house). The Player Entry Fee is Free game (players pay nothing) and the prizes are set by hand: type them in the Prizes and Fee tab. Guests do not need to upload a payment receipt: they just enter their name and request a card sheet. When you switch Akea ni bo off, everything goes back to normal.
Game settings
Each sheet is one card. In a 3-sheet game every player must pick any 3 cards of their own choice (the same card can be picked twice and numbers may repeat) and hold all 3 to claim a win. The limit is 1 to 5 sheets. It also decides how many cards new players and “New cards for everyone” get; “Issue now” gives every current player that many random cards (use it before the game starts).
ON: new visitors and players see a “Try a free practice game” button. The practice game runs only on their own phone – no money, no credit, nothing is saved and your real game is not affected.
💰 Money accuracy check
Checks every player’s play credit and Wallet against their own statement, and this game’s fees and prizes against the winners. It runs by itself after every game and every 10 minutes.
App colour
Each game has its own app colour. The app changes colour by itself when you switch a special game on or off. Tap a game, then tap a colour to change it. It changes on every player's screen straight away.
Card design
Choose how everyone's card sheets look. It changes on every player's screen straight away, even during a game.

💾 Download backup
Saves a copy of all the game data in one file on this phone or computer: players, members, credit and Wallet balances, every top-up, fee and prize, Own cards, awards, messages and all your game settings. Do it once a week, and keep the file safe (Google Drive or a USB stick). If anything ever goes wrong, this file lets the game data be put back.
Keep the file private: it holds your players' details. Not included: payment receipt photos, private chats, and the phone login keys.
📱 Phone reports

Pop-up notice to get everyone's attention
Type a message. Every approved player sees it as a large pop-up on their screen (like a winner announcement) with a sound. It closes by itself after 15 seconds, or sooner when the player closes it. Tick “Also read it aloud” to have it spoken, or leave it unticked for a silent pop-up. Visitors do not see it.
Pinned notice
Pin a message at the top of the page. Everyone who opens the link sees it, including people who have not requested a card sheet yet. For example: Game will be hosted tonight at 9:00 PM.
Tick this to also show the notice as a pop-up screen over the app for 30 seconds (players can close it sooner).
One hour before the start time, players and visitors see a countdown timer next to the game status in My cards.
One minute before the game start time, every phone, tablet or laptop that turned on game alerts rings and vibrates, even when the app is closed. Alerts are sent as high priority, so they wake sleeping phones straight away. Players turn alerts on in their Account tab.
Payment details (the “i” button)
Players and visitors see this text when they hover over or tap the “i” button next to “Attach payment receipt”. Put your ANZ account name, BSB and account number or PayID, the amount, and what reference to use.
Special message to players
Whatever you write here pops up on every signed-in player's screen as a special Attention card, right after they sign in. It closes after 30 seconds (60 seconds when it has a poster), or when they tap Noted / E reke raoi. Tap 📎 Attach poster to add a poster picture; players can tap it to see it full screen. The pop-up is empty until you write a message: if there is no message, players see no pop-up. Each new message pops up again on all players' screens.
Ticked: the message pops up for players. Not ticked: no message appears to players (your message is kept here so you can tick it again later).

Text your registered members' phone numbers through ClickSend. ClickSend charges your account for every message, so check the count before you send. Members can switch SMS off for themselves in their Account.

📋 Daily credit and winnings record
Every day at 2:00 am (Tarawa time) the game saves a record of every player's play credit and Wallet winnings (registered members, players in the game, and removed guests not yet settled). It is emailed to you as a spreadsheet and kept here, so you can download any day's record. Records are kept for 400 days.

Winner history
Every winner you award is saved here automatically, with the winning card. The last 5 games are kept; older games are removed by themselves. Only you can see this. Use the arrows to open a game or show a winning card.
🔎 Find any record
Search everything saved in the game: statements (fees, top-ups, prizes, cash-outs, transfers), winners, missed win reports and players. Then save what you found as Excel or PDF.
❗ Missed win reports
Missed win reports from the last 7 days: player, card, the number they typed, your decision and the prize.
Daily commission
Your commission for each day: the entry fees players paid, minus the prizes paid to their Wallets (plus any private chat income). Newest day first. Tap a day to see its games.
Guest balances (removed guests)
When you remove a guest (a player who is not a registered member) who still has credit or Wallet winnings, their details are saved here automatically: name, ticket code, phone number, credit, winnings and bank account (if they gave one to cash out). This also happens with Remove all players and cards. Registered members are not listed: their money goes back to their member account. Press Mark as settled (twice) once you have paid or sorted it out.
How long a guest who left can come back with their ticket code and get their saved balance back. After that the code expires and you settle the balance yourself.
Player account statements
Every player's account statement is kept here, including players who have left. Search by name, or filter the list, then tap a name to open that player's full statement.
Removes every statement entry dated more than one year ago, for all players (press twice to confirm). Players' current credit and Wallet balances do not change. Download the saved records first if you want a copy.
Registered members
Players register once with their name, phone number, bank account number and a PIN. You approve who can join. Only you can see bank account numbers. When a member asks to cash out, a glowing box appears on their row: send the money to their bank account, then press Paid to deduct it from their winnings.
Prizes
Prize pool from players
The prize pool uses the Player Entry Fee (set below). Enter the share for each prize. Players see the amounts on their dashboard, and they update as players join.
Prizes I set by hand
Type what each prize is, for example $20 or a voucher. Players see exactly what you type.
⏱ Claim in time
Only for the dab-yourself (manual dab) game. In the auto-dab game a winning card always wins, claimed or not.
OFF: prizes are awarded as now – whether the winner claims or not, you can still award them and they receive the prize.
ON: when a card completes a line (Line 1, Line 2, Full house, also in special games and Te Corner), the game waits and the player must press Claim within the seconds you set. If they do not claim in time, that card misses the prize, the game carries on and another player can still win it.
Player Entry Fee
One fee for everything: it builds the prize pool (fee × players) and is the amount taken from each player's credit when each game starts.
Player credit
Give each player a credit balance. When each game starts (the first number is called), the Player Entry Fee is taken from every active player's remaining balance. Top-ups are always added to what is left. A player whose credit falls below the fee is paused and cannot play the next game until you top them up and unpause them.
Wipes every player's balance (to 0 unless you type another amount). Press the button twice to confirm. Normal top-ups never reset anything; they add to the balance left.
Private chat plans and prices
To invite someone to a private chat, a player first unlocks it: they choose one of your plans and pay from their Wallet or play credit. Set each plan's length (minutes, hours, days, weeks, months or years) and price. Players can buy more time while unlocked – it is added on. Accepting an invitation is free. No plans = private chat is free.
📞 Calls in private chat
Players in a private chat can make voice and video calls to each other. Calls go straight from phone to phone and usually work on Wi-Fi. Some mobile networks block direct calls: if players say calls do not connect, add a call relay (TURN) server here (for example from metered.ca or Cloudflare – they give you the address, username and password). Leave empty if calls work.
🎁 Promotions
Reward your most loyal members. Most games played: the member who plays the most games in the period wins. Top credit spender: the member who pays the most game fees from play credit in the period wins. Best Lucky player: the member who wins the most times in the period (Line 1, Line 2, Full house and other prizes; cancelled false wins do not count) wins. Set the effective date, the prize and the period (week = 7 days, fortnight = 14 days, month or year, Tarawa time), press Save and switch it ON. Members see the promotion and where they stand on the Players dashboard. Set the effective date: on that day members see a message about the promotion every time they open the game. Periods count from the effective date. When a period ends, the winner is picked and announced by itself (you do not need to do anything): each winner gets a special prize card in their game and taps it to collect the prize into their Play credit (shared equally on a tie). Promotions are for registered members only, not guests. Tap Not eligible next to a member to leave them out of a promotion.

⭐ Own card save price
When a player saves cards to their Own card folder they pay from their Wallet or their play credit. A full sheet of 6 cards (Own these cards, Save this sheet) costs the sheet price. One card (the star on a card) costs the one-card price; 2 to 5 cards cost the one-card price for each card, never more than the sheet price. Registered members pay these prices; guests pay double. Saving cards that are already in their folder is free. Uploaded (scanned) cards have their own price below. Set 0 to make saving free.
📷 Upload card price
When a player uploads their own paper cards (Upload card) and wants to keep them in their Own card folder, they pay this amount from their Wallet or their play credit. The same price for members and guests. Playing the uploaded cards in the current game without keeping them stays free. Set 0 to make keeping uploaded cards free.
