Getting Set Up

Let’s begin your journey towards the horse racing history books.

Here’s a step-by-step breakdown to help get you racing.

Step 1 — Account Signup

 If you haven’t already, click here to sign up for a free account!

If you’ve received a referral code from a current player, enter that before completing the signup process.

Step 2 — Verify Your Account

Verifying your account and setting up a two-factor authentication will ensure your account has the utmost security.

Note: Verification has benefits. For instance, it allows you to participate in promotions, such as deposit-match campaigns and the PFL referral program.

Step 3 — Free vs. Paid

Every player who signs up for Photo Finish™ LIVE gets a free Trainer Horse. If you want to try things out, your free horse is already waiting in your stable, and you can skip to the Selecting a Race section

If you’re here to earn real money rewards, keep reading

Note: FREE Trainer Horses are only eligible to enter free races in the “Free Races” area of the site. They cannot race for money, breed, or be sold.

Your free Trainer Horse is more than just for practice –it has benefits. The top stable on the free race leaderboard wins a real horse at the end of the season, and those who finish 2-20 on the leaderboard are entered into a free horse raffle.

For more info, refer to the First Timers Furlong blog.

Step 4BUY DERBY

Photo Finish ™ LIVE is more than just a game; it’s an esport where horses race for real money.

The in-game economy runs on $DERBY. To buy horses and race for real money, you’ll need to pick some up.

Don’t worry; $DERBY can be cashed out at any time.

You can start by looking at the top of the page, clicking on the silver currency icon with the horseshoe, and then clicking the Fund Wallet button.

Alternatively, you can click here to go directly to the funding page.

You can always use cryptocurrency to purchase DERBY; $1.00 = 80 $DERBY. If you want to use a credit card, you must first validate your identity. Race entry fees can range from 600 $DERBY to over 20,000 $DERBY for the highest stakes races.

Whatever your budget is, there will be a place for you!

Paid races are available for as little as $1 (80 $DERBY).

When ready, click Next and head to Part 2 of the article on Buying a Horse.
