Termsof use.

01About these terms

MINT Cup (mintcup.co.za) is run by MINT Gaming, the esports division of MINT Platforms (Pty) Ltd, 3 Gwen Lane, Sandown, Sandton, 2031, South Africa. By creating an account or entering a cup, you agree to these terms, the fair play rules and the rules of each cup you enter. Our privacy policy explains how we handle your information.

If you are under 18, you need a parent or guardian's permission to create an account and play.

02Your account

• One account per person. Use your own details, and keep access to your email and Discord account secure.
• Only link game accounts that are yours. Playing on someone else's account isn't allowed.
• We can suspend or remove an account that breaks these terms or the fair play rules, or that is used to cheat, abuse others or harm the site.

03Teams and organisations

• A team's owner is responsible for the team: its name, logo, roster and registrations. Managers can help run it. Organisation owners are responsible for their organisation in the same way.
• A player can be on one team per game.
• Teams join an organisation only when both the team and the organisation agree.

04Cups

• Every cup is free to enter.
• Each cup's page sets out its dates, format and rules. We may change a cup's schedule, or cancel it, and we'll say so on its page.
• Admins run each cup. Their decisions on results, disputes and disqualifications are final for that cup.
• Teams run by MINT Gaming can play but can't win prizes or season points.

05Prizes

• Each cup's page lists its prizes. Only what is listed there is promised.
• Prizes are paid once the result is final and any disputes are settled.
• To pay a prize we may ask winners for proof of identity and their bank details, and a parent or guardian's details for a player under 18. Cash prizes are paid by bank transfer in South African rand.
• A team that is disqualified, or that broke the rules to win, loses its prize.

06What you post

Team and organisation names, logos, bios, notes and screenshot links must be yours to use, and must not be offensive, misleading or infringe anyone else's rights. We can edit or remove anything that breaks this. You keep ownership of what you upload, and you let us show it on MINT Cup and in posts about MINT Cup.

07Game publishers

MINT Cup is a community competition. It is not run, endorsed or sponsored by Riot Games, Valve or any other game publisher. Game names and art belong to their owners. You still have to follow each game's own terms of service when you play.

08The service

We work to keep MINT Cup running and accurate, but we can't promise it will always be available or error-free. As far as the law allows, we aren't liable for losses from using the site, such as a missed match because the site was down. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under South African law, including the Consumer Protection Act.

These terms are governed by the laws of South Africa.

09Changes and contact

We may update these terms. If we do, we'll change the date at the top of this page, and for bigger changes we'll tell account holders. Questions go to hello@mint-gaming.co.za. For results and disputes, use the match page.
