FELT

Terms of Service

Last updated September 29, 2026

These terms apply when you use Felt at joinfelt.app, including the website and the app added to your home screen. By using Felt, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use Felt. How we handle your information is covered by our Privacy Policy.

Who can use Felt

• You must be 18 or older, or the age of majority where you live if that's higher.
• You're responsible for making sure your game is legal where you play. Rules on private poker games differ by place. Some allow friendly games only when no one, including the host, takes a cut. Felt doesn't give legal advice and doesn't check whether your game is allowed.

What Felt is, and isn't

• A record-keeping tool. Felt helps a host and players keep track of a game. It isn't a casino, a gambling service, a bank or a payment service.
• Felt doesn't handle money. Payment buttons open Venmo or another app you choose. Payments happen entirely in that app and are covered by its own terms.
• Debts are between players. When Felt shows that one person owes another, that's a record of what was entered at the table. Felt isn't a party to it, doesn't guarantee it will be paid and doesn't collect it.

Records can be wrong

Everything in a game comes from the people at the table. Amounts can be mistyped, requests approved by accident, and chip counts can fail to add up. Check the numbers before anyone pays. Hosts can correct a game's records, and they're responsible for keeping them accurate. Felt isn't responsible for disputes over what happened in a game or who owes what.

Your account

• Use your real name, or the one your table knows you by. Don't pretend to be someone else.
• Keep access to your Google account or email secure. Anything done while signed in as you counts as you.
• One account per person. Don't share it.

Hosts

A host runs their own game and cardroom in Felt. That includes deciding who plays, approving buy-ins and cash-outs, and choosing what other players can see. Hosts are responsible for how they run their games. That includes asking before adding someone's name or photo.

What you add to Felt

Names, photos, notes and game records you add remain yours. You let Felt store them, and show them to the people they're shared with, so the service works. That permission ends when the content is deleted. It doesn't cover records other players still rely on, as the Privacy Policy explains.

Don't add anything you don't have the right to share, such as someone else's private information, or anything unlawful, hateful or harassing.

Don't misuse Felt

• Don't use Felt to run a game that's illegal where you play it.
• Don't harass, threaten or pressure other players, including over money.
• Don't try to access games, accounts or data that aren't shared with you.
• Don't interfere with Felt, for example by overloading it, probing it for weaknesses or copying data from it with automated tools.

If you find a security problem, please tell us at support@joinfelt.app instead.

Feedback

If you send ideas or feedback, we may use them to improve Felt without owing you anything for them.

Changes and availability

Felt is free today. It's a small, independent project, so features may change, and there may be downtime or data loss. Felt could also shut down. If it does, we'll give reasonable notice in the app when we can, so you can save what you need.

Ending your use

You can stop using Felt at any time. To delete your account, follow the steps in the Privacy Policy. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or puts other people or the service at risk.

No warranty

Felt is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We don't promise it will be error-free, always available or that its records will be accurate.

Limits on liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Felt and the people who run it are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for any money won, lost, owed or unpaid in a game. Our total liability for any claim about Felt is limited to $50. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute about Felt will be handled in the state or federal courts located in California, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring it somewhere else.

Changes to these terms

If we change these terms, we'll update the date at the top. If a change is significant, we'll tell you in the app first. Using Felt after a change means you accept the new terms.
