Square Mile Bets

Pick 3 stocks and split your virtual £300 pot across them. The player whose portfolio gains the most by the end of the game wins. Performance is tracked live on the leaderboard so you can see exactly where you stand.

It costs £10 to enter. Transfer this to the game organiser before the game starts — they'll confirm receipt and get you set up.

Check the Game Progress bar at the top of this page — it shows the exact start and end dates for the current season.

You can pick from a wide range of publicly listed stocks across US and UK markets — big tech, finance, energy, healthcare, crypto-adjacent stocks and more. Hit Browse Stocks to explore by category, or search by company name or ticker symbol (e.g. "Apple" or "AAPL"). If a stock appears in the browser or is accepted by the search, it's fair game.

You decide how much of your virtual £300 to put behind each pick — minimum £50, maximum £150 per stock. It works in £10 steps. If you're more confident in one pick, back it harder. Your total must always equal exactly £300.

The £300 pot is virtual — no real trades are made. The £10 entry fee is real though, and goes into the prize pot. Purely bragging rights on the line (and mild office shame if you finish last).
