What Oraloco is

Oraloco is a football transfer market prediction game where you pick a player, indicate the destination team and which transfer window (winter or summer) the transfer will happen in, earning points if it becomes official. It's completely free, available on Android and iOS, and it's not gambling: you don't bet real money.

The in-game economy runs on two virtual currencies — Locoins and Gemme — that you earn by playing and spend in the shop on cosmetic skins, boosts and exclusive items. Oraloco is pure competitive entertainment, inspired by the football transfer market.

Predictions

Each prediction is made up of three steps that you're free to choose:

  1. The player

    Search for any footballer in our database.

  2. The destination team

    Select the team you think the player will go to. Note: there is no "stays" prediction.

  3. The transfer window

    Summer (June–August) or Winter (January–February).

Locking rules

  • You can edit a prediction within 1 hour of creating it. After that it's no longer possible.
  • You can't predict on a market that has already closed.
  • The game is free: placing a prediction doesn't cost Locoins.

How points are calculated

When the transfer is confirmed (or denied), each of your bonuses/penalties is evaluated separately. Scoring follows this balance:

Per correct prediction

+15 pt

All-correct bonus

+50 pt

Penalty (0/3 correct)

−5 pt

Total score

95 pt

Practical example

Prediction: Mbappé → Real Madrid, Summer

  • It happens → +15 pt
  • Correct team (Real Madrid) → +15 pt
  • Correct window (Summer) → +15 pt
  • All-correct bonus → +50 pt
  • Total: 95 pt → 95 Locoins + 50 Locoins bonus = 145 Locoins

Streak — consecutive correct predictions

If you get several predictions right in a row you build a streak. Once you reach a certain number of consecutive correct predictions, all the points and Locoins you earn are multiplied. The exact multiplier is configured by the Oraloco team (e.g. 5 correct predictions in a row → ×1.5). The streak resets at your first wrong prediction.

Early bird — the sooner you predict, the more you earn

This multiplier rewards those who take a risk before the market opens. It's calculated based on the days between placing the prediction and the opening of the transfer window of the destination team (note: every country has different dates):

Days before the openingMultiplier
More than 30 days before×2.0
From 14 to 30 days before×1.5
From 7 to 14 days before×1.2
Less than 7 days before×1.0 (no bonus)

The multiplier is balanced for both bonuses and any penalties: taking a risk early brings greater rewards, but also greater losses if you're wrong. Be careful and choose your strategy well.

Time decay

The system supports an exponential decay of the prediction's value over time: the further the market advances without a transfer being made official, the more the potential score decreases. The key parameter is daysToHalfValue — the number of days after which the value halves. This mechanism can be enabled by the Oraloco team and is not applied by default in the preset settings.

When is a prediction scored?

  • When the Oraloco team confirms the transfer as official or wrong.
  • When the transfer window of the destination team closes without official confirmation — the transfer is considered not to have happened and the penalty kicks in.

Locoins and Gemme

Oraloco uses two virtual currencies, with no real monetary value:

Locoins

SOFT CURRENCY

  • 1 Locoin per point earned (default setting: 1 pt = 1 Locoin).
  • +50 Locoins bonus if you get all three steps of the transfer right.
  • You also earn them from goals, awards and daily bonuses.
  • They're spent in the shop: cosmetic skins, timed boosts, standard items.

Gemme

HARD CURRENCY

  • They're obtained mainly through real purchases (packs in the shop) or from rare events and awards.
  • Convertible into Locoins: 1 gemma = 10 Locoins.
  • They unlock premium, exclusive items and limited-time offers in the shop.

On your first login you receive a welcome bonus of 200 Locoins + 10 Gemme to start playing right away.

XP and Levels

XP (Experience Points) measures your growth as a football transfer market expert. It accumulates throughout the entire life of your gameplay experience (it doesn't reset between seasons) and determines your global level.

You create a prediction

+5 XP

Partially correct prediction

+20 XP

Fully correct prediction

+50 XP

Wrong prediction

+2 XP

No negative XP

never −XP

Even when you're wrong you always earn a little XP: experience accumulates regardless of the outcome. Each level has an XP threshold to reach, a name and an optional reward (Locoins, Gemme or bonus XP on reaching it).

Technical note

The precise level thresholds (XP thresholds, names, rewards) are decided by the Oraloco team. The exact values for your version of the app are visible in your profile once you're logged in.

Goals and rewards

Oraloco has three reward systems that sit alongside predictions:

Goals (daily/weekly missions)

Every day and every week you receive a list of small objectives: make 3 predictions, guess at least 1 transfer, add a friend... Completing them grants rewards in Locoins, Gemme or XP. Goals reset at 00:00 (daily) or on Monday (weekly).

Awards (permanent achievements)

Awards are permanent achievements tied to your career on Oraloco: 100 correct predictions, first time in the shop, 10 friends added, and so on. They don't reset between seasons and bring significant rewards in Locoins, Gemme or special titles.

Seasons and leaderboards

Each season lasts about 6 months (aligned with the football transfer windows). At the end, the top players receive rewards in Locoins, Gemme and exclusive seasonal badges. Your global stats keep accumulating even after the seasonal leaderboard resets.
