The Bachelor Fantasy League

Each week, you’ll draft a lineup of contestants you think will win roses and make it further in the journey for love. Depending on the game type, that could mean avoiding elimination at the Rose Ceremony or racking up points for things like getting one-on-one dates, receiving roses, and making memorable connections. You can play across multiple game types during the season for more ways to climb league Leaderboards.

Picks for all The Bachelor fantasy games lock each week when the episode starts on the East Coast. Once picks are locked, your roster is set for the week, so make sure you’ve got the right contestants in your lineup ready to compete.

You can switch up your roster for the Advanced, Confidence Pool, and Week to Week game types before picks lock each week. Lineups reset for every episode, so you can adapt as connections grow, rivalries heat up, and unexpected drama unfolds. First Impression bracket locking time is different, with picks locking at a designated time and staying locked for the remainder of the season. Make sure you have push notifications turned on so you never miss your shot to update your lineups.

Definitely. You can create a public or private league, customize it with your own name and icon, choose your game type(s), and invite friends to join. Everyone in your league will use the same scoring system, and you’ll have your own league Leaderboard to see who’s the true fantasy champion amongst your group. There’s no cap on league sizes, so the more the merrier! Leagues are also automatically reactivated each season, so you don’t need to re-invite your league members each year.

Yes! You can jump in anytime by downloading the Bracketology app, creating an account, and adding The Bachelor to your shows. You’ll be added to the sitewide Bracketology Sitewide League automatically, and you can also join or create leagues at any point during the season.

Once a contestant is eliminated or leaves the competition, they can’t earn points anymore. If you already made picks for upcoming weeks and there’s time before the next lineup locks, swap them out by using the pencil icon to edit your lineup and keep your roster competitive.

Yes! Season-long The Bachelor fantasy leagues are completely free to join and play.

Scores are updated within 24 hours after each new episode airs. Check your team’s performance in the Picks tab, view your league Leaderboard, or open the full Scoring Recap in the mobile or web app.

If you don’t make The Bachelor fantasy picks in time, you might not be completely out of luck. Each league Commissioner has a tool to unlock picks for episodes/eliminations to allow for late or unsaved picks. The Commissioner should click the dropdown arrow on their lineup within the league, and click “Open Picks.” This will allow for all picks for that specific episode/elimination to be edited. Reach out to your Commissioner if you were unable to make picks; but beware, not all Commissioners will allow for lineups to be changed after picks lock each week. Once picks are opened and closed by a Commissioner, new scores will be updated at the next score publishing, generally after the following episode.

Coins are a fun, non-redeemable social currency you can use to climb the Bracketology Superfan Leaderboard. Coins can be earned by setting fantasy lineups, inviting friends to join a league, referring new users to Bracketology, claiming your Daily Login Reward.
