FAQ for skeptical league mates
Your commissioner wants to try League Tycoon. You have questions. Fair enough. Here are honest answers to the things league mates typically ask.
Commissioners: share this page with your league when proposing a switch.
Why are we switching platforms?
Your commissioner found a platform that better fits what your league needs. League Tycoon is a modern fantasy football platform with integrated contract management, trade auctions, slow auction drafts, and a clean mobile app. The goal is a better experience for everyone in the league, not just the commissioner.
Is this going to be complicated?
No. League Tycoon is designed to be intuitive. The mobile app and web interface are clean and modern. If you can use your current fantasy app, you can use League Tycoon. Most users are comfortable within a few minutes of exploring.
Can I use it on my phone?
Yes. League Tycoon has a native mobile app for iOS and Android. It's not a scaled-down version of the web. It's a full-featured app designed for mobile use. You can also use the web version from any browser if you prefer.
Can I still use the web?
Yes. League Tycoon works on both mobile and web. You can switch between them freely. Same account, same data, same features.
What is a contract league? Is that complicated?
A contract league adds salary caps and player contracts to dynasty, similar to how real NFL teams manage rosters. Each player has a salary and a contract length. League Tycoon manages all the details for you, so you can see your cap space, contract details, and available moves right in the app. You don't need spreadsheets or to do any math.
Do I need to track anything in a spreadsheet?
No. Everything is managed inside League Tycoon. Salary caps, contracts, extensions, and trades are all tracked automatically. This is one of the main reasons for using the platform.
Will I understand what's going on?
Yes. League Tycoon displays your roster, cap space, contract details, and available actions clearly. Think of it like a sports video game interface. All the information you need is right there, presented visually.
Will we lose our league history if we switch?
No, and this is worth being specific about because it is the concern that keeps most leagues where they are. League Tycoon imports your league directly from Sleeper, ESPN, CBS, MyFantasyLeague, or Fantrax, and that import brings up to 20 past seasons with it. Those seasons are not a summary. You can open 2019 and see the standings, every week's matchups, the lineups each team actually started, the playoff bracket, and the final standings. On top of that you get a Hall of Fame with all-time standings, head-to-head records split between regular season and playoffs, trophies for every past champion, and all-time high scores. Your commissioner can still edit anything that needs correcting.
Do I have to re-enter my roster?
No. Your roster comes over in the import, including taxi squad and IR placement, along with any future draft picks you have traded for and your team logo. When you accept the invite, you pick your own team from a list and it is already yours.
Does switching mess with our current league?
No. The import only reads from your current platform. Your existing league is completely untouched, so your commissioner can import it, look around, and decide afterward.
Is there sportsbook clutter on this platform?
No. League Tycoon has zero ads and zero sportsbook clutter. It is a pure fantasy football platform.
How much does it cost?
Standard dynasty on League Tycoon is completely free. That includes auction drafts, trade auctions, compensatory picks, draft lottery, league history, the mobile app, and web access. Contract dynasty features cost $11.99 per team per year via a token. Your commissioner can share specific details. There are no hidden fees, no ads, and no sportsbook clutter.
Can I try it before committing?
Yes. You can download the app or visit the web version and explore. Your commissioner will set up the league and invite you when it's ready.
