Terms of Service
Last updated 26 October 2026
The short version
Rank 100 is a party game. Play it with people you invite. Do not use the name you type — the one every other player sees — to abuse anybody. If you do, we remove it and we can remove you. Report anyone who does it to you: tap their name in the player list and choose Report.
There is no account to lose, because there is no account. From version 1.0.2 you can buy a Premium subscription through Apple, or on Android through Google Play; a subscription renews until you cancel it in your Apple Account settings or in Google Play, and refunds come from Apple, not from us — on Android, Google Play's refund policies apply.
Who these terms are between
These terms are between you and Joe Spisak, who makes Rank 100. Contact: hello@rank100.app.
On iPhone and iPad, Rank 100 is distributed through the App Store, so Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies to your licence to use the app — the standard EULA at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/. These terms cover conduct and content; that one covers the software licence. Where a conflict is genuinely irreconcilable, Apple's EULA governs the licence and these terms govern your behaviour in the game.
On Android, Rank 100 is distributed through Google Play, so Google Play's Terms of Service also apply to your use of Google Play and to anything you buy there — at https://play.google.com/about/play-terms/. Apple's EULA does not apply on Android; instead, we give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the app on Android devices you own or control, subject to these terms and Google Play's terms.
Who can use it
You must be 13 or older to play Rank 100 — to create a game, to join one, or to play the daily challenge. The app is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them; the privacy policy says the same thing, and says what happens if we find out otherwise.
If you are at least 13 but under the age of majority where you live, you may use Rank 100 only with the agreement of a parent or guardian, who accepts these terms with you.
The rules, and there is really only one
Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. You may not use Rank 100 to:
- display a name that is a slur, sexual, hateful, or targeted at another player
- harass, threaten, impersonate, or bully anyone
- post anything unlawful, or anything sexual involving minors
- attempt to break, overload, or work around the game's limits, filters, or rate limits
In practice, the thing other players see is your display name — everyone in the game reads it, for the whole game. A Daily group's name is seen too, by everyone in the group and by anyone who opens the group's link in the app. In versions of the app that show Challenge friends after a Daily Challenge, a group is made only with + New group, and whoever makes it names it. In earlier versions, a group you start from Invite friends is named after you, so your display name is in the group's name until you leave the group. What you type as a guess is scored and is not shown to anybody else; the rules above still apply to it, but a name — yours or a group's — is the one you should think about before you type it.
Display names and group names pass an automatic filter before anyone else sees them. The filter is not perfect, which is why the rest of this section exists.
What we do about it
- Anyone can report anyone. In the player list, tap a name and choose Report. The reported player is never told, and reporting somebody does not change anything they can see.
- Hosts can remove players from their game, and a removed player cannot rejoin that game with the same code.
- Whoever runs a Daily group can remove people from it and reset its link. That is whoever has been in the group longest — at first, the person who started it. A removed person cannot rejoin from the same account unless they are let back in, but they could rejoin from a new account while the old link still works; resetting the link stops the old one at once. In a group, tap a name and choose Report, or report the group's name in Group settings.
- We read the reports and we act on them. Rank 100 is made by one person, so reports are reviewed on a regular schedule rather than by a round-the-clock desk — but every report is read, and we act on the ones that need acting on.
- We can remove content or access at any time, without notice, if we think these rules are being broken. Because accounts are anonymous, that is a blunter instrument than it sounds — see below.
If you believe you were removed in error, write to the address above.
Duels (version 1.0.7 and later)
A Duel is a best-of-3 game between two players, one turn at a time, on lists the app picks. You can Duel someone on your Friends board, or send a Duel link, which works once, for 7 days; accepting one puts the two of you on each other's Friends board. A challenge that is not accepted in time expires: 48 hours for a challenge to a friend, 7 days for a link. Once a Duel is accepted, each turn has 48 hours from the end of the one before it, and a turn not taken in time forfeits the Duel. A turn you have started is played out. You can decline a Duel, or give one up, at any time, and giving up counts as a loss. A Duel ends without a result if either player can no longer take part, for example because one of them removed the other from their Friends board.
What you get, and what you do not
There is no account. The app creates an anonymous identifier for your device so you can rejoin a game after closing the app. That identifier is not a login, it is not transferable, and it is not recoverable — if you delete the app or delete your data, everything tied to it is gone, including your streak and your game history.
Nothing in the game is your property. Streaks, scores, standings and past games are part of the service, not goods you own. We may change categories, retire lists, or change how scoring works. Rank 100 is a game that will keep changing.
Versions before 1.0.2 are free and sell nothing. There are no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, and no paid content in them.
From version 1.0.2 the free version shows ads. An ad may show at the end of a Daily Challenge (at most one a day, and none after your very first), after a Play more run or a Duel turn in versions that have them (at most one each time, and none before your second day of Daily Challenges), between rounds of a party game (never more than twice in a game), or when you choose to watch one. An ad never starts while a round's clock is running, and in some versions an ad you did not choose never starts within a minute of the last one. They are served by Google AdMob, and an advertiser's claims are the advertiser's, not ours; we do not choose or endorse individual ads. How ads use your data, and how to refuse tracking, is in the Privacy Policy. Rank 100 Premium removes them all.
You can also choose to watch an ad for Rewards points. The Rewards screen may offer one: watch it to the end and you get 5 points, at most twice a day (Eastern Time). It is never required, it is not offered with Premium, and it never changes a score, a streak or a leaderboard. Points, like scores, are part of the service and have no cash value.
Purchases (version 1.0.2 and later)
One thing is for sale, and it is optional. It is bought through Apple's App Store under your Apple Account or, on Android, through Google Play under your Google Account:
- Rank 100 Premium is an auto-renewing subscription, monthly or annual. It removes the ads for as long as it runs: no ad after your Daily, and none between rounds, in Play more or in Duels. The price is shown before you buy. It renews automatically at that price until you cancel it: on iPhone and iPad, in the iOS Settings app under your Apple Account, then Subscriptions, at least 24 hours before the current period ends; on Android, in the Google Play app under Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions, before the current period ends. If a free trial is offered, it converts to the paid subscription at the end of the trial unless you cancel before then. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
Category packs are not for sale. Every pack in the game is free for everyone, with or without Premium.
Apple or Google Play handles payment and refunds. We never see your card. On iPhone and iPad we cannot issue a refund — ask Apple, through the App Store's refund process. On Android, refunds follow Google Play's refund policies. If a purchase is refunded, the subscription it paid for is removed. Nothing here overrides the statutory rights you have where you live.
Purchases are tied to your Apple Account or Google Account, not to your anonymous ID. If you reinstall the app, get a new phone, or delete your data, tap Restore purchases on the Premium screen and what you bought comes back. Purchases are not transferable to another Apple Account or Google Account.
What a pack contains can change. The lists are built from published data, and we may retire a list or replace it when its source changes or a better one is published. The lists are part of the service, not goods you own, and may change over time.
The content in the game
The lists are built from published, factual, measured data — follower counts, box office takings, medal tables, census records — with each list's source recorded. Facts are not owned by anyone. Where a list concerns a company, a league, or a platform, its name is used only to say what the data is about, and no affiliation or endorsement is implied.
If you believe a list infringes your rights, write to the address above and say which list and why.
Availability
We do not promise the game is always available, always correct, or always online. It depends on services we do not run. To the extent the law allows, the app is provided "as is", and our liability is limited to the amount you have paid for the app through the App Store or Google Play in the twelve months before the claim — which, if you have bought nothing, is nothing.
Changes
We may change these terms. The date at the top is when they last changed. If a change is significant, we will say so in the app rather than quietly editing this page.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Nothing here removes a consumer protection you have where you live.
