FAQ's
Everything you need to know about how FPL Pro Leagues works for Chairmen and Managers.
What is FPL Pro Leagues?
FPL Pro Leagues helps you level up your Fantasy Premier League mini-league with custom competitions, automated prize handling, weekly reports, and over 35 ways for your managers to win — all built on top of the official FPL game.
How does the new app work?
Once you've created your league on FPLPL, managers join it through our app by providing their FPL Team ID. This connects their official FPL team to your league setup. You can choose whether managers go through our in-app validation steps or join instantly with just their ID — it's completely up to you.
Do I need to rebuild my league from scratch?
Not at all. You bring your existing FPL league with you. We just make it better — by automating tasks, adding custom formats, and keeping your managers engaged from Gameweek 1 to 38.
What are the validation steps?
If you enable validation, managers will follow a short, one-time process in-app to confirm they're connecting the right FPL team. It adds a layer of certainty, especially for leagues with prizes or strict entry rules.
Can I run a paid league through the app?
Yes. You choose the entry fee, and we securely collect payments from each manager. At the end of the season, we automatically distribute winnings based on your chosen prize structure. No chasing payments. No awkward messages.
What if my league starts mid-season?
Not a problem. You can launch at any point during the season — and use our Season Rewind tools to generate data, leaderboards, and banter from earlier gameweeks. Ideal if you’re starting late or relaunching an inactive league.
Do I need to create a new FPL team?
Nope — just provide your existing FPL Team ID when you join via the app. This lets us pull in your real-time FPL points and drop you straight into the action your Chairman has set up.
Do I need to download the app?
Yes — the FPLPL app is your gateway to everything: live leaderboards, unique competitions, gameweek reports, and prize tracking. It's slick, secure, and designed for serious (but fun) fantasy football.
How do I join a league?
Once your Chairman creates a league, they'll send you a unique invite. You open the app, enter your FPL Team ID, and boom — you're in. If validation is turned on, just follow the simple steps to confirm your team.
What if I'm not top of the table?
That's the beauty of FPLPL — we've built it so there's always something to play for. From monthly titles to rivalry weeks and knockout cups, you can still win cash, glory, or bragging rights, even if your season got off to a rocky start.
