# Packs

> Bundle multiple market predictions into one offer with a higher multiplier

## What is a pack?

A **pack** is a curated bundle of 2 to 5 predictions from different markets. You win only if every leg lands. Because every leg has to win together, packs pay out at a much higher multiplier than trading one market on its own. If any one leg misses, the pack loses.

Your risk is fixed: you can only ever lose your stake, no matter how large the payout. A pack is also a real, self-custodied position. When you buy one, you receive an on-chain token in your own wallet, not just an entry in a database. The payout is backed on-chain and you claim it yourself ([more below](#under-the-hood)).

## Stake, payout, and fees

|                        |                                                                             |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Collateral**         | USDC on Base                                                                |
| **Stake range**        | \$1 to \$70                                                                 |
| **Maximum multiplier** | 21x (before vig)                                                            |
| **Maximum payout**     | \$1,400 per pack                                                            |
| **Vig (platform fee)** | 4% on crypto and sports packs, already included in the displayed multiplier |

The multiplier you see on a pack is the **net** payout multiplier, with the vig already baked in. A \$10 stake on a 10x pack pays out \$100 if every leg wins. Limitless rejects quotes with a stake above the ceiling with the message `Stake exceeds $70 maximum`.

<Note>
  Multipliers move with live market prices and can drift between sessions. The multiplier you lock in is the one displayed at the moment you buy a pack; later visitors may see a slightly different number on the same pack.
</Note>

## Buying a pack

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Packs page">
    Browse the available packs on Limitless. Each card shows the pack name, multiplier, market start time, and the legs included.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a pack and a stake">
    Select a stake between \$1 and \$70. The interface shows your potential payout (stake x multiplier).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm and sign">
    Every pack purchase requires a confirmation. With an external wallet, the first purchase also includes a one-time USDC approval for \$100.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check your portfolio">
    Your pack appears as an active position with leg-by-leg status.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Pack states on the listing

The state of a pack on the public listing tells you whether you can still buy in. Packs you already bought continue to resolve regardless of the listing state.

| State      | What it means for you                                                                                                                   |
| ---------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Active** | The pack is live. You can buy at the displayed multiplier.                                                                              |
| **Hidden** | The pack has been temporarily removed from the public list. New buys are paused; packs you already bought continue to resolve normally. |
| **Closed** | The earliest leg deadline has passed. No new buys. Packs you already bought continue to resolve.                                        |

## Tracking your packs

Open your portfolio to see every pack you hold. Each shows:

* The locked-in multiplier and potential payout.
* Leg-by-leg progress (for example, "1 of 3 legs won").
* Overall status: **Active** (legs still playing out), **Won**, or **Lost**.

A pack flips to **Won** only after every leg has resolved in your favor. If any leg misses, the pack flips to **Lost** as soon as that miss is confirmed. A Won pack shows a **Claim** button until you collect your winnings; claiming does not change the status.

## Claiming winnings

When your pack reaches **Won**, a **Claim** button appears on the position. Click it to pull your winnings to your wallet.

<Warning>
  Claiming runs on Base. If you use an external EOA wallet (such as MetaMask), you need a small ETH balance on Base for gas. Limitless Safe wallets do not need ETH. If the claim signature fails on an external wallet, top up gas and try again.
</Warning>

## Under the hood

Packs are fully on-chain, self-custodied positions, not a database entry.

* **You hold a real on-chain token.** Buying a pack mints a single Conditional Token (CTF) to your own wallet that represents the whole bundle. It becomes redeemable only if every leg resolves your way; if any leg misses, it expires worthless.
* **You sign your exact purchase.** Confirming a pack signs an EIP-712 intent in your wallet covering the pack you picked, your stake, and a deadline. That signature locks the bet in, so it can't be changed before it goes on-chain.
* **You claim your own winnings.** Redemption is permissionless and fully on-chain: once every leg lands, you claim directly from the contract on Base. You never depend on Limitless to release your payout.

## Frequently asked questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Can I cancel a pack after buying it?">
    No. Once you've bought a pack, every leg has to play out. There is no early cancel or partial cashout.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why is the multiplier lower than I expected?">
    The vig (4% on crypto and sports packs) is already baked into the displayed multiplier, and the multiplier is capped at 21x before vig. Multipliers also move with live market prices.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="A pack I saw earlier has disappeared. Why?">
    Either its earliest leg deadline has passed (the pack is now **Closed** on the listing), or an admin temporarily hid it (for example, a leg price drifted out of range). If you already bought it, your pack continues to resolve as normal.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="My pack still shows Active after the games ended.">
    Limitless catches up on leg resolution every 30 minutes. If your pack has not flipped within that window, contact support so the team can sync it.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I market-make or quote on packs?">
    No. Packs are a buy-side product only. There is no maker side, no order book, and no fee rebate to earn on packs. The price you see is the price you buy at. If you want to quote and rebate on Limitless, use CLOB markets ([Cross-market market making](/developers/cross-market-market-making), [Maker rebates](/user-guide/maker-rebates)).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What do I need to play?">
    USDC in a wallet connected to Limitless on Base. If you use an external EOA wallet, you also need a small ETH balance on Base for gas when claiming winnings.
  </Accordion>
