What is Footbillion?

Footbillion is a free daily football quiz where knowing an obscure squad player can be worth more than knowing the captain. Each of the seven rounds gives you a football category and asks for one name. You might be asked for a player from a particular World Cup squad, a club from a Premier League season, or a national team that made it through a tournament round.

Each prompt has several correct answers. The familiar picks are usually easier to recall, but they earn smaller fees. The highest fees go to the names deeper in the list. You can play in your browser without creating an account, whether you call the sport football or soccer.

How to play the daily football quiz

Start today’s puzzle and read the question carefully. The year or season matters: a club can play in one Premier League season and spend the next one in the Championship. Type a name, choose a suggestion if you see the right one, and submit it. You can also submit a valid name or accepted alias directly.

You get three different guesses and, by default, 45 seconds each round. Your first correct answer ends the round. If you draw a blank, you can pass. After each round you can open the accepted answers and see what each name was worth. If you prefer to think through the squads without a countdown, turn off the timer in Settings before kickoff. The full rules explain attempts, time limits and saved games.

Why the deep cuts are worth more

Say the question asks for a member of Argentina’s 2022 World Cup squad. Lionel Messi is an easy name to reach for. A reserve keeper takes more digging. Both count, but a less obvious pick can earn a much bigger fee. Fees reflect the game’s own ordering of the answers, independent of what a player actually cost in the transfer market.

Correct answers pay from £10m to £150m per round. Seven £150m picks give you £1.05bn, the best possible score. Sometimes it makes sense to bank a familiar answer instead of running out of time chasing the perfect one. See how the scoring works for the fee bands and share symbols.

One lineup every day, more games anytime

The daily lineup changes at midnight UTC. Everyone gets the same seven questions in the same order, so a friend’s score gives you a fair target. Finish all seven to see your total and a breakdown of the rounds. Then copy the spoiler-free score, download a scorecard, or send a challenge link for that exact date.

Only a daily completion adds to your streak. If you missed a day, open the daily archive for a replay. If you want another game right away, Unlimited practice draws a new set of seven from the question bank. It’s a chance to try a different answer without changing your daily record.

Footbillion is an independent take on open-answer football trivia. If you came looking for a football Krillion-style game, the familiar part is naming a valid answer under pressure. Here the extra decision is how far down the team sheet you’re willing to go.
