Terms of use
Last updated: 14 November 2026
The short version. Tikivela is free. One account per person and per device. Play fair: no cheating, no scripts, no abusing bugs. The game will change as we build it.
Who we are
Tikivela is made by Craftshift, Letterhout, 1507 EG Zaandam, the Netherlands ("we"). These terms are the agreement between you and us when you use the Tikivela app or this website. By playing you accept them. Our privacy policy explains what we store and why.
A free game
Tikivela is free to play. There is nothing to buy in it.
Your footballer, its attributes, its statistics and everything else in the game are part of the game. They have no money value, and they cannot be sold, bought or traded, inside the game or outside it.
Your account
- You sign in with Apple or Google. We do not use passwords.
- One account per person. Do not create several accounts, and do not share, sell or give away your account.
- One account per device. When an account is deleted, its device can create a new one after a wait of at least 7 days; the app shows the date before you delete.
- Each account has one footballer. You may retire it at any time and start a new one on the same account.
- You are responsible for what happens on your account, so keep your device and your Apple or Google account safe.
Fair play
Tikivela is played with and against other people. To keep it fair for all of them, do not:
- use a modified app, or any program, script or device that plays, taps or decides for you;
- use a bug or a weakness in the game to gain an advantage. If you find one, tell us at [email protected] instead;
- try to reach parts of our server you are not meant to, read hidden game data such as talents, or overload the server;
- play with or for several accounts, or arrange results with other players.
If you break these rules, we may reset your footballer, suspend your account or delete it. Where we reasonably can, we will tell you why.
Names in the game
Every footballer's name in Tikivela is generated: a given name and a family name picked at random from common names of the footballer's country. A name can therefore match a real person, a real footballer included, by pure chance. This does not mean that person has anything to do with Tikivela. Teams are national teams, shown by their country's flag.
Tikivela is not connected with any real football club, league, federation or competition.
The game will change
Tikivela is new and we keep working on it. We may change the rules, the controls, how footballers grow, how matches are made and how the rankings work. We may also stop the game. If we do, we will say so in the app well before it happens, where we reasonably can.
If we change these terms in a way that matters to you, we will tell you in the app. If you do not agree, you can stop playing and delete your account.
Using the app
We let you use the Tikivela app for your own, non-commercial play. Do not copy, resell or take apart the app, except where the law allows you to. If you got the app from the App Store, Apple's standard terms for apps (the Licensed Application End User License Agreement) also apply.
Liability
We work hard to keep Tikivela running and fair, but it is a free game provided as it is. We cannot promise it will always be available or free of errors, or that a match or a result will never be lost.
As far as the law allows, we are not liable for losses caused by using or not being able to use the game. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited by law, or takes away any rights you have as a consumer in the country where you live.
Ending
You can stop playing at any time and delete your account in the app. We may end your access if you seriously or repeatedly break these terms.
Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands. If you are a consumer, this does not take away the protection of the laws of the country where you live.
