    Default What platform is everyone using for their Salary Cap Leagues?

    Our group has been using CBS for the past 5 years or so and the amount of issues we've had come up this season has forced us to look for alternatives.

    Open to hearing which platforms support Salary Cap leagues and how they compare to CBS.

    If this isn't the subforum to be asking this question, can a mod please move it to the correct one? Thanks!

    Fantrax has a great setup for Salary Cap leagues and has a lot of flexibility in its set up.

    Its not the cleanest look or anything... but the functionality of Fantrax is the best.

    2 Votes for FanTrax.

    Does FanTrax have an app? And how much is it to run a league?

    Its free unless you really want to get in the weeds on details. Some of the in-depth stuff costs extra. They have an app but some of the functionality takes you to the website from the app. It's a pretty complex presentation (thus the ability to do a lot of things really well) and so doesn't make it easy for a simple app presentation the way say Yahoo can.

    Nice. I think our league will need to dive into the in-depth details/customization.

    Thank you guys for the suggestion. I'll play around with Fantrax and present it to the league.

    I see there is a spot to enter Promo Codes. Do they typically offer discounts? And I guess the follow up to that question is, is there currently any promo codes running?

    FanTrax is very good. The cap league features are nice. All* of my leagues are on there.

    *Technically the league in my sig is still fully scored by our commish, because the rules are incompatible with mass market solutions. I figured we could use it to handle transactions & also sussed out a way to have it collect the weekly data for him, and it's really helped.
