Betting rules
How a bet is accepted, and how it is settled.
- Every selection is re-priced on our server when the bet arrives. If the price has moved against you, the bet is refused and you are shown the new price; if it has moved in your favour, it is accepted at the better price.
- A suspended selection, or one no longer offered, cannot be bet on.
- Prematch bets are accepted up to the scheduled start. Once an event has started, bet on it in-play.
- A bet is confirmed only when it appears on My bets with a bet reference.
- Bets are settled on the official result at the end of the event, including any added time, unless the market states otherwise.
- Half-time and period markets are settled on the score at the end of that period.
- Handicap and total markets whose line lands exactly on the result are void, and the stake is returned. Quarter lines are split into two halves, each settled separately.
- In a multiple, a void leg is removed and the remaining legs stand at their original prices.
- Match bets are settled on the winner of the match once it has been completed.
- If a player retires or is disqualified before the match is completed, match bets are settled by our team; unfinished set and game markets are void.
If an event is abandoned and not completed, markets whose outcome was already decided stand; all others are void. An event postponed and not played within 48 hours of its scheduled start is void.
If a price or a market was clearly wrong when a bet was accepted — a price offered in error, or a result already known — we may settle the bet at the correct price or void it. We will always tell you why.
