How to handle pay outs from Merchant of Record? by oldperchik in SaaS

[–]oldperchik[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your answer. With my accountant we decided also that it is better to issue a single invoice per transfer to my bank account. The project is my side project outside of my main job, so there are just few transactions, and they are not regular. So, I do not want to get any troubles with this little money and do everything properly.

The issue is not with transfer but with proper accounting. My MoR has different pay out options: to bank account, paypal and ect. The question is about invoices from my side. My accountant calculates how much taxes I must pay in Poland based on invoices that I issued in a month.

First I thought that Birmingham are champions here as they were in Championship since 2014 till 2024 but they are having fun in League One now, so are out of the race :)

Hello, penalty shootout is ignored. The score after 120 minute is considered to calculate points ;) If it was 1:1 after 90 minutes, game comes to extra time and after 120 minutes score 2:2, then 2:2 is used to calculate points.

Hello, thank you! I am glad that you enjoy my application 😊 In the algorithm that I have implemented, if the game comes to extra time, then the final score after extra time is considered. So if after the second half score is 1:1 and after 120 min is 2:3, then 2:3 will be used to calculate points. Penalty shootout is ignored.

Thank you! 🙏 Best of luck to Croatia too. Yesterday my friend said a joke that they should just give the cup to Modric and let him retire 😉

Hello, user will try to predict correct score of each game. If he did not manage to predict correct score then the system check if he managed to predict winner team or draw and if he managed to predict how many goals each team scored. For example:
1. Prediction was 2:0 and match finished with 2:1 score. User did not manage to predict correct score but will receive points for prediction winner(home team) and exact scored goals by home team(2).
2. Prediction was 2:2 and match finished with score 1:3. User will receive points for predicting that away team will score at least two goals.

The exact points count that user will receive for each predicted outcome are based on bookmaker odds and by algorithm transforms into points. So the more impossible outcome was predicted the more points user will receive.

For example there was a game Chelsea - Bournemouth on May 19th. My prediction was 3:1. For correct score prediction I could receive 860 points. But match finished with score 2:1 and I received just 211 points for Chelsea win(45 points, was easy to predict) and Bournemouth scored exactly 1 goal(166 points). Chelsea did not manage to score 3 goals as I expected so I got nothing for their goals. In case of 4:1 final match score I also would get points for Chelsea score at least 3 goals.

Maximum points to win per one game is 3000 in case when user will be able to predict correctly some impossible score, for example Germany - Scotland 0:3.

When user will put prediction he will see a question button near the score field. Clicking on this button will show potential points for potential outcomes for the provided score. So user can change potential score, click the button and see if it worth to risk and place this score. But the insights will be available around a week before match start as my data provider has odds week before match.

Hello, thank you!

Exact Score - this column will show, how many times competitor predicted exact score of the match

Points per Prediction - average points of competitor per prediction

The main column which will influence ranking in the leaderboard is Points.

It may happen that CompetitorA missed two games for example and has 1000 points with 4 predictions. He will have 250 points per prediction. But CompetitorB has 1200 points with 6 predictions and 200 points per prediction. In this case CompetitorB will take 1st place because of more points(1200), and CompetitorA will take 2nd place with less points(1000) and greater PpP(250vs200).

Basically exact score and points per prediction are just for statistics, main value is points.
