12 Xenora Studio – Managers and Group Owners

  • What Xenora Studio is. Xenora Studio is a tool for group owners and tournament managers to create a group, manage members, send announcements, host tournaments and see their score and earnings. Players use the Xenora E-sports app to join.
  • Eligibility. You must be 18 or older and have a verified Xenora account. To host tournaments you must apply as a manager: this needs a verified phone number and other conditions (for example group size, active members and account age) shown in the app. Xenora can approve, refuse, pause or remove manager access at any time.
  • Your group. You are responsible for what you post in your group, including its name, logo, description and announcements. Do not post anything illegal, misleading, abusive or that copies someone else's brand.
  • Hosting tournaments. You must run each tournament as described, give players correct room details on time, and enter results honestly and within the time allowed. Fixing matches, cheating, favouring players, or misusing player data is not allowed and can lead to removal and withholding of earnings. Missing the result deadline cancels the tournament with a full refund to players and a strike on your account.
  • Entry, prizes and your share. Entry fees, prize split and your share are set by the rules shown when you create a tournament, including any limits for your tier. Your share is added to your manager balance after the result is final. Xenora keeps its own share as shown in the app.
  • Manager balance and withdrawals. Your manager balance cannot be used to join tournaments. It can be withdrawn, or sent to another user with "Send coins". Withdrawals go to your UPI or bank account and are paid by hand by our team, usually within 24–48 hours, after the withdrawal fee shown in the app. The minimum-deposit rule for players does not apply to manager balance. Managers do not collect money from players. Xenora can delay or hold a payment during a dispute, a rule check or an investigation.
  • Scores, tiers and ratings. Your manager score, tier and player ratings are calculated by Xenora and can change your limits and benefits. They are shown to other users.
  • Player data. You see only what you need: members' usernames and join dates, and the Free Fire name and ID of players registered in your tournaments. You never see their email, phone or wallet. You may use this information only to run your tournaments. Do not copy, sell or share it, or contact players outside the purpose of the tournament.
  • Suspension and removal. We can suspend or close a group or manager account for breaking these Terms, for fraud, or for legal reasons. Three strikes suspend manager access automatically. Your balance is handled as the law and these Terms allow.
  • Changes. We may change Xenora Studio and these terms. Continuing to use the app means you accept the changes.
