Welcome to the IFC platform

IFC is a platform built for competitive communities. Its goal: bring together in one place all the tools to run competitions, grow your club and fill out your trophy cabinet.

The idea is simple — deliver the best possible competitive experience among enthusiasts, from a small group of weekend players to communities of thousands of members. The platform scales to you: spin up a league with friends as easily as a structured, large-scale tournament.

Three uses, one common thread:

  • 🏆 Run competitions — leagues, tournaments and cups, from the draw to the podium.
  • 🛡️ Grow your club — recruit, manage the roster, contracts, transfers and the budget.
  • 🥇 Build your trophy haul — collect trophies match after match.

This guide covers every feature, step by step.

Three account types / roles

Your actions depend on your role. IFC distinguishes:

  • Player — plays the matches, manages their contracts and transfers, votes in predictions.
  • Captain (GM) / Co-captain (Co-GM) of a team — manages the roster, the lineup, contracts, transfers, the treasury, enters scores.
  • Owner / Admin / Staff of an organization — manages the community, members, linked teams, trophies, and organizes competitions.
  • Competition admin — adds participants, generates the schedule, manages scores and dates.

A typical workflow to organize an event

  1. Create an organization (your community).
  2. Create a competition: league, tournament or cup.
  3. Add participants (teams or players).
  4. Generate the schedule with the format you want.
  5. Captains enter the scores as matches are played.
  6. The standings and knockout phases update automatically.
