How do fantasy leagues for Bachelor in Paradise work? Keep reading to learn more!
It’s your favorite time of the year – Bachelor in Paradise time. It’s finally time to see what connections will form on the beach and who will get sent home without a love interest. If you’re like us, you’ve thought to yourself, “Wow; it would be so fun to have a game to play along with the show.”
Well, it’s here! You can play your own version of Bachelor in Paradise (without needing to air your trauma and insecurities on national TV). Bracketology offers one Fantasy Bachelor in Paradise game type: choose a different roster of contestants weekly that score (or lose) points based off doing/saying Bachelor-related things. This challenge is on.
The Bracketology app is available for both iOS & Android. Search 'Bracketology' in your App Store, or scan the QR code at the top of the page to be taken directly to the app listing.
If you're new to Bracketology, welcome! You'll need to go through the Account Creation flow to get started. Enter your email & password, choose a username, and upload a profile picture. Once you've verified your email, you can use your recently created username & password to log in.
Bracketology offers fantasy gaming for a variety of reality TV shows. If this is your first time using the app, after logging in, you'll be prompted to select your first show. Choose 'BIP' and you'll be ready to join some leagues. If you have already played fantasy games on Bracketology for another show, use the 'Add Shows' menu in the upper left corner of your app, click the '+" button & add BIP to your show list.
After you’ve added Bachelor in Paradise to Your Shows, you will be automatically added to the Bracketology BIP League. Here, you can compete against Bachelor fans site-wide. You also have the option to join or create as many additional leagues as you want. The best part? You can easily submit the same lineup to multiple leagues – no need to remake picks for each one – making it easy to be in as many leagues as you want.
Once you’re on the Leagues tab, swipe over to the ‘Join Leagues’ section to see all of the Public leagues available to join.
Looking to adopt the role of ‘commissioner’ and create your own league? We love it. Just click the Create New + button and follow the instructions. You’ll be asked to create a league name, description, add a photo for the league icon, and any social links you might want to direct your league-mates to. After, you’ll be prompted to choose up to 3 game types in which your league can compete, as well as decide the privacy of your league (private = invite only, public = searchable in the league directory and anyone can join).
Bracketology normally offers four different game types for reality TV fantasy games, but just offers one for Bachelor in Paradise due to the structure of the show.

Can’t score points if you don’t make picks. We do our best to ensure that you don’t forget by sending (a very reasonable amount of) push notifications whenever it’s time to set your lineups. Check your phone settings (Settings > Notifications) and make sure all notifications are turned ON so you receive these important reminders. We’ll also send pick reminders via email, so make sure you are opted-in to receive those, too.
Tune in weekly on Thursdays to watch BIP on ABC. Don’t worry though – we’ll do all the fantasy scoring for you so you can just sit back and relax.
Scores are generally posted about an hour after the episode ends in Pacific Time.
Head back over to your Picks tab to see how all of your lineups faired in the episode. For the Advanced game, you can click on your lineup to see a breakdown of how each racing team earned (or lost) their points.
Within each league, users can view a Total scoreboard that combines all game type scores from within that league into one overall leaderboard. Only making picks for one game type within your league? You can see how you rank on each individual game type scoreboard, too.
A full Scoring Recap is published after every episode that lets you see how each racing team did that episode. You can find the Amazing Race Scoring Recaps by using the 3-dots menu in the upper right corner of your app.
