Scorito, the Netherlands’ largest online sports pool platform, is demanding payments ranging from hundreds to thousands of euros from approximately 800 users. The company alleges that many users are falsely representing themselves as friends and family to avoid fees for business or large-scale participation. Scorito offers free pools for personal use with a maximum of ten participants, but requires paid subscriptions for larger groups or commercial use. Users are protesting the demands, claiming their pools are primarily social and not for profit, with one user facing a €253 bill for a school pool. Scorito’s founder, Martin van Dijk, downplays the issue, stating it’s a case of users deliberately misusing the platform. The company maintains it clearly outlines its terms of service during registration. The situation has sparked outrage on social media, with users accusing Scorito of unfairly targeting casual players.
