LAS VEGAS – Circa Sports has done it again – the Las Vegas-based sports betting brand’s record-breaking professional football contest Circa Survivor reached 15,000 sign-ups as of September 3, covering the guarantee of $15 million. Any additional signups will increase the prize pool, leading to the largest purse ever for this type of contest. Last year’s Circa Survivor guaranteed a $10 million prize pool and awarded a payout of $14,266,000. Reaching the guarantee has officially deemed this year’s Circa Survivor the largest professional football betting contest ever.
Also returning for the 2025-2026 season, Circa Million VII features a $6 million guarantee. With 4,570 entries as of September 3, Circa Sports faces a $1,430,000 overlay. This means that Circa Million VII entries will have more implied value, as the prize pool will be supplemented by Circa Sports.
The new ultra-luxury survivor-style contest with a $1.5 million guarantee, Circa Grandissimo, sits at 49 entrants with a $100,000 buy in each. The contest has surpassed its guarantee on its debut resulting in a $4.9 million prize pool as of today.
