The time that chess.com site has become a bit of boring  , I have a totally different idea of introducing money for winners like you bet your stake say 100 bucks and get back 200 in return if you win . This will become a new source of income along with enjoying playing chess on this site.

But restricting this to only 3 min Blitz and 1 minute bullet games to avoid cheating will seal the corruptors.

How is this idea , please share your opinions on this topic.

Good luck Have a nice day

The problem is that no one in their right mind is going to bet money on chess these days with strangers.

I recommend that you take some courses and see if you can't boost your rating a bit. Chess is a lot less boring when you start to understand what is going on.

That’s called gambling. You are suggesting Chess.com adds GAMBLING to the site. A site with actual CHILDREN on it. I know ChessKid exists, but does anyone actually use that site?

TL;DR: NO.

technically, there has to be a significant factor of luck for it to be considered true "gambling",
but I absolutely agree, chess.com is just not the place for that

Honestly sounds fun in theory, but it would turn the site into gambling real quick. Also cheating wouldn’t disappear just because it’s blitz, people would still find ways to abuse it.

I’ve been exploring different ways to make a bit extra while enjoying chess, and honestly, it’s a mix of patience and finding the right outlets. Lately, I’ve also tried online sports betting Pin Up through a platform I use myself, and it’s surprisingly smooth and reliable for placing small, casual bets on sports. It’s not a magic solution, but it adds a fun way to stay engaged without feeling overwhelming.
