Fliff Superstars: CA DFS for Super Bowl 60

Though social sportsbooks are no longer allowed in California, daily fantasy sports (DFS) still provide an outcome for those who want to add a money-making dimension to their enjoyment of sports.

Fliff Superstars is the latest fantasy sports addition to the CA DFS market, just in time for Super Bowl 60.

Background about Fliff

Fliff Superstars operates as a peer-to-peer DFS. Participants compete against each other, with players picking at least two athletes or teams to either overperform or underperform statistical projections. Winnings come from the prize pool of players, rather than the operator itself.

Also, Fliff maintains that free-to-play options are available for all products it offers. A customer can claim a free dollar to play with every day if their account balance is depleted.

Fliff has returned to California; it briefly left following the recent sweepstakes ban that went into effect at the beginning of the year, but has returned with this DFS variant that’s available in 48 states.

There’s currently a dispute between Underdog, another DFS operator, and the state’s Attorney General Rob Bonta, regarding the legality of California DFS operations. While Bonta issued an opinion against DFS games, that isn’t currently being enforced, leaving room for Fliff and other DFS operators to offer customers winning opportunities.

Big Game returns to Bay Area

With estimates holding that Californians comprised as much as 10% of the total entries in US-based DFS contests in 2025, Fliff Superstars comes at a perfect time for an audience that’s looking to make picks on a Super Bowl that the Golden State is hosting. Super Bowl 60 will be staged at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara this year, returning to the Bay Area venue after hosting Super Bowl 50 in 2016.

California has hosted the Super Bowl as recently as Super Bowl 56 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, and the event will return to the colossal new stadium in 2027, making the Golden State the first to host back-to-back editions since Florida did it in 2020 and 2021.
