Terms of Service

Last updated 2 November 2026

These are the rules for using Fat Lad Games. We've kept them in plain English. By starting the free trial or signing up you agree to them.

1. Who we are

Fat Lad Games is a trading name of Sean Wood, a sole trader, of 40-42 Town Gate, Wyke, Bradford BD12 9NT ("we", "us"). You can contact us at fatladgamesuk@gmail.com. "You" means the DJ, host or venue that holds the licence.

2. Your licence

• We give you a personal, non-transferable licence to use the Fat Lad Games app. The software is licensed, not sold.
• One licence covers one DJ or venue and can be active on up to two computers at a time. Please keep your licence key private and don't share it.
• You may not copy, resell, rent out, reverse engineer or break the licence checks in the app.
• The app installs updates automatically when you close it. Updates only download for current licence holders.

3. The free trial

You can try every game free for 4 days on each computer. No card is needed, nothing is charged, and the trial ends automatically. A computer can have one free trial.

4. Plans and payment

• Monthly: £29 a month. Yearly: £290 a year. Founding DJs (our first five): £19 a month for as long as the subscription continues without a break.
• All plans include every game, two computers, your logo on screen and tickets, making your own quizzes and all updates.
• Payment is by card through Stripe. We never see your card details.
• Subscriptions renew automatically each month or year until you cancel.
• Prices are in pounds sterling. We don't currently charge VAT.
• If we change our prices we will email you at least 30 days beforehand, and the change will only apply from your next renewal.

5. Cancelling and missed payments

• You can cancel at any time using the link in your licence email, which opens Stripe's customer page. Your licence stays active until the end of the period you have paid for, and you won't be charged again.
• If a payment fails, Stripe retries the card. You get a 3-day grace period after your paid-until date. After that the licence stops working until payment goes through, and it comes back at the app's next check-in once it does.
• If you are refunded, your licence is switched off straight away. See our Refund Policy.

6. Using the app offline

The app needs an internet connection to check your licence, but it keeps working offline for up to 7 days between checks, so a pub with poor Wi-Fi won't stop a game.

7. Your content

• You keep ownership of the quizzes you write, your logo and your branding.
• When you make a quiz in the app, a copy is sent to us. You give us a free, non-exclusive permission to store it, look at it for support, and run and back up the service.
• You also give us permission to copy, edit and include the questions and answers from your quizzes in ready-made quiz sets that we offer to other customers. We won't use your name, logo or branding on them. Your own copy stays yours and keeps working. If you cancel, sets we have already made can stay in our library.
• Only write questions, and only use a logo, that you wrote or have the right to use. Please don't copy questions from books, TV quiz shows or other people's quizzes. If we are told a question breaks someone's rights, we may remove it.

8. Your responsibilities

• You are responsible for running your events lawfully, including any music licence, and any gambling, raffle or prize rules that apply to your pub nights. Fat Lad Games is entertainment software; it does not take bets or handle prize money.
• Don't misuse the licence service, try to get round the limits, or use the app to harass or mislead people.

9. Availability and changes

We work hard to keep the app and licence service running, but we can't promise it will never go down. We may improve, change or retire games and features over time. We will not remove something you rely on without good reason.

10. Our responsibility to you

• We provide the app with reasonable care and skill. We can't promise it will be error free or suit every set-up, so please run it before a live night.
• We are not responsible for losses that were not a foreseeable result of our breaking these terms, or for lost income, lost bookings or indirect loss, for example a pub night that goes wrong because of your own equipment or network.
• Our total liability to you for anything connected with the service is limited to the fees you paid us in the 12 months before the problem.
• Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud, and it does not affect your statutory rights if you are a consumer.

11. Ending the agreement

You can stop using Fat Lad Games at any time. We may suspend or end your licence if you seriously or repeatedly break these terms or don't pay, and we will tell you why where we can.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will change the date above and, for significant changes, email licence holders before they take effect. If you don't agree you can cancel before the change applies.

13. Law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts there can deal with any dispute.
