# Getting started

> A five-minute tour: what you can do without an account, with one, and where everything lives.

## Without an account

Everything public is free to browse:

* **Predictions**: upcoming analyses, with the sport, match, odds and price. The exact
  bet stays hidden until you buy.
* **Leaderboard**: every tipster compared on real results.
* **Matches**: live odds and how they move, sport by sport.
* **Blog**: guides about sports betting.

These four entries sit in the navigation bar at the top of every page.

## With an account

A free account lets you buy predictions, subscribe to a tipster, follow tipsters, keep a
bankroll and receive Telegram alerts. It all happens in your **dashboard**, reached from
the menu under your name at the top right.

</Frame>

To create an account: [Sign-up and email verification](/en/compte/inscription-et-verification-email).

## As a tipster

Once your application is approved, a second area appears in the same menu: the
**tipster area**, where you publish predictions, manage subscribers and track earnings.
See [The tipster area](/en/tipsters/espace-tipster).

## Language and display

* The language selector (flag at the top right) switches the whole site between French
  and English. Page addresses start with `/fr/` or `/en/`.
* Dark theme is on by default. Light theme, odds format and time zone are set in
  [Account settings](/en/compte/parametres-du-compte).

## Where to get help

page.
