Playing Fantasy Premier League (FPL) contests on Gowagr is a smooth experience most of the time, but you may occasionally run into technical issues. The good news is that most of these problems are easy to fix once you know what to look out for. Below, we’ll walk you through the most common issues FPL managers face on Gowagr and how to resolve them.
1. My FPL team is not syncing
Double-check your Manager ID (must be numeric, not your display name).
Ensure your FPL account is public. Private accounts won’t sync data.
2. My score on Gowagr doesn’t match FPL
Gowagr mirrors official FPL points, but there may be a short delay during:
Stat corrections.
Bonus Points updates.
Defensive contribution tallies (new 25/26 rule).
3. My contest shows the wrong team
If you linked the wrong Manager ID, unlink and re-add the correct one.
Contact support with your correct ID if you can’t fix it manually.
4. Settlement is delayed
Wait until Gameweek officially closes.
If it’s still pending after 24 hours, contact support with your contest ID.
5. “Failed to fetch asset for user” error message
Go to your account settings and set your country to Nigeria.
If the issue persists, reach out to the support team via the in-app channel.
6. “startGameWeek Invalid value” (when creating a contest)

8. Inability to link FPL account (already linked to another Gowagr account)
