Football

(Last updated: 25.01.2024)

Aside from the following special football rules, the general betting rules may apply. The special football rules listed below will take precedence over the Sports betting general rules nevertheless.

1. Regular Play (2 x 45 minute halves plus injury time (Extra time doesn't count)) 

Unless displayed otherwise (e.g. Match is 80 mins play, extra time, penalty shoot-out etc), all markets will be settled on regular play. This includes any added injury or stoppage time but does not include scheduled extra time or penalty shoot-outs, if played. Further, if a match takes place but is not completed as per correct format (e.g. is not a 90-minute match split into 2 halves) then all bets on the match will be void. 

Specific extra time bets will stand regardless. This is defined as any scheduled period of play, normally 2 halves of 15 minutes, between the end of regular play and the end of the game. Hence, if any other time period is played these bets will be settled accordingly regardless of the periods played (e.g. 2 halves of 10 minutes). a.) Venues: For matches played at neutral venues, the team listed on the left are classed as the 'home' team. Bets on matches played at neutral venues will stand, unless the official fixture lists different team details to our scheduled match - bets in this scenario are void. A club team playing a European competition is classed as playing at home if the fixture is on a typically neutral ground - i.e. Arsenal and Tottenham playing Champions League home games at Wembley.

If a match is no longer played at the venue advertised, bets will stand as long as the venue remains in the same country and is not switched to the opponent's ground. Should this occur, all bets will be void. For International tournaments if the Host venue is changed bets will still stand.

If an official fixture lists different team details to our scheduled match (e.g. 'XI', Reserves/U-21s/U-18s/Development, Youth team or similar), then bets will be void. This includes where an entire team is replaced by a 'lower level' squad at short notice due to unforeseen circumstances (such as medical restrictions). Where a scheduled match is listed with any of the above details or as a 'Club Friendly', all bets stand regardless of the players used to complete regular play, with all prices subject to fluctuation.

Starting With Less Than 11 Players: If any team starts a 90-minute competitive game with less than 11 players, all bets on that match will be made void.

b.) Starting with less than 11 players: If any team starts a 90-minute competitive game with less than 11 players, all bets on that match will be made void.  

2. Abandoned, suspended and postponed matches 

a.) Abandoned matches: Any scheduled match abandoned before the completion of regular play will be made void, with the exception of all bets the outcome of which has already been determined at the time of abandonment. This rule will apply even if the governing body declare that the result of the shortened match will stand for competition purposes (i.e.: FIFA award a 2-0 victory to one of the teams). For example, where the first goal has been scored by a named player, the First Goalscorer and Time of First Goal markets, amongst others, will stand.
 
b.) Suspended matches: Bets on any scheduled match suspended before the completion of regular play will be made void if the match is not restarted on the same day (local time) and played to completion, even if the governing body declares the result of the shortened match to stand for competition purposes. Bets the outcome of which has already been determined at the time of  suspension will stand. For example, where the first goal has been scored by a named player, the First Goalscorer and Time of First Goal markets, amongst others, will stand. Where the match is concluded on the same day that it commenced (local time), all bets will stand, regardless of any suspension of play. Where markets are voided we will endeavour to make new betting markets on the event available as and when governing bodies confirm details.

Example: 
Real Madrid v Barcelona is 1-0 and is suspended due to a crowd disturbance after 47 minutes. Match does not continue on the same day but is played to a conclusion (48-90) a week later. Any bets already determined are settled, e.g. First Goalscorer, Half-Time, First Goal, etc. All other bets are voided. 

Real Madrid v Barcelona is 1-0 and is suspended due to a crowd disturbance after 47 minutes. Match continues 2 hours later on the same day and is played to a conclusion (48-90). All bets are settled as normal.

c.) Abandoned matches: For any cancelled or postponed match, any bets struck prior to the scheduled kick-off will be deemed void unless the match is delayed prior to the scheduled kick-off time and takes place on the same day (local time at venue). Matches played on a fixed date in tournament finals, e.g. World Cup Finals taking place June 10th – July 12th, European Championship Finals taking place June 10th – July 12th, or Copa America Finals taking place June 10th – July 12th (but not qualifiers for these finals) will not be void if postponed and will stand for the new date they are played.

For any bet placed on a match that is played prior to the date or kick-off time originally stated, the bet will stand if the bet was placed before the new time; if not, the bet will be deemed void. 

d.) Subsequent void matches: If a match has been completed but the result is later deemed void then all bets will be settled on the original result regardless of any subsequently rearranged fixture.

3. Correct score betting: All bets are settled on the final score at the end of regular play. If there is an option for “Any other score” this will include scores that do not appear in the original list of scores to bet on and will be settled accordingly.

a.) Anytime Correct Score:  All bets are settled if the score happens anytime in regular play.

4. Half-time betting: Bets are settled on the result of the match at the end of the first half (i.e. at the end of 45 minutes, including injury time). Bets will be void if the match is abandoned in the first half. 

5. Both teams to score: A prediction on whether both teams will score a goal in regular play. If a match is abandoned, all bets will be made void except where settlement has been determined, e.g. if both teams have already scored at the point of abandonment then YES will be settled as the winner. Own goals count in this market.  

6. Total Goals – Over/Under: Predict whether the total number of goals scored in regular play will be over or under a certain number, e.g. Over/Under 0.5 goals, 1.5 goals, 2.5 goals etc. In the event of a match being abandoned before regular play has been completed then all bets will be void unless already determined. 

7. Total Goals – Exact: Predict the exact number of goals scored in regular play. 

8. Total Goals 1st half – Exact and 2nd half - Exact: Predict the exact number of goals scored in a 45-minute half.  

9. Number of Goals – Odd/Even: Predict whether the total number of goals will be an odd number or even number (no goal scored counts as even). Extra-time and penalties do not count. In the event of a match being abandoned before regular play has been completed then all bets will be void.

10. Number of Goals 1st half – Odd/Even: Predict whether the total number of goals in the 1st half will be an odd number or even number (no goal counts as even) 

11. Total Goals – Over/Under 1st half and Over/Under 2nd half: Predict whether the total number of goals scored in a 45-minute half will be over or under a certain number, e.g. Over/Under 0.5 goals, 1.5 goals, 2.5 goals etc. In the event of a match being abandoned before the half has been completed then all bets will be void unless already determined. 

12. Multi Goal: Predict whether the total number of goals will fall into the denoted band for the corresponding period, match or team.

For example:

Real Madrid Multi Goal 1-2: If Real Madrid score 1 or 2 goals the bet wins, if Real Madrid score any other amount the bet loses.

First Half Multi Goal 1-4: If the total number of goals scored in the first half by both teams combined is 1, 2, 3 or 4 goals, the bet wins. If the total is any other amount then the bet loses.

Extra time and penalty shoot outs do not count. If a match is abandoned before regular play has been completed, then all bets will be void unless the denoted period is complete (eg 1st half for 1st half markets).

13. Team to score First/Second/Next Goal/First in a half: Own goals count to the side credited with the goal.   IF NO GOAL is NOT offered in this market and there is no goal scored in the specific half bets on either team will be losers. Extra time does not count for the purposes of this market.  

14. Team to score last:  Bets will be void if the match is abandoned. 

15. 1X2 and Over/Under (Match Result and Over/Under): A prediction on who will win the match and the total amount of goals scored during regular play, Over/Under e.g. Bayern Munich to win match and Over 2.5 goals. If a match is abandoned all bets on these markets will be made void. 

16. Match Result and Both teams to score: A prediction on who will win the match with both teams scoring a goal during regular play. All other outcomes are available under this market including team 1 or 2 to win to nil, both teams not to score and both teams to score and the match to end in a draw. If a match is abandoned all bets on these markets will be made void. 

17. Goalscorer markets

All goalscorer bets (1st/Last/Anytime) are offered on selected major games. Bets are settled on the player to score (1st/Last/Anytime) in the match based on regular play only. Own goals do not count for any goalscorer markets. Prices for unquoted players will always be available on request and those players will count as winners in the event that they score and have not been quoted.

Bets on these players are void. 

j.) Player to score exactly 1/2/3: To win you must successfully forecast a player to score exactly 1/ 2 /3 goals during 90 minutes. Bets stand as long as your selected player plays some part in the match. If your selected player does not take any part in the match, bets will be void.   

k.) Player to score in both halves: To win you must successfully forecast a player to score at least one goal in both halves of normal play (90 minutes). Bets stand as long as your selected player plays some part in both the first and second halves, if they don't, bets are void.   

l.) Player to outscore the opposition: To win you must successfully forecast a player to score more goals than the entire opposing team during 90 minutes. I.e. Harry Kane scores 2 for Tottenham in a 3-1 win to Chelsea - Kane has outscored the opposition 2-1. Bets stand as long as your selected player plays some part in the match. If your selected player does not take any part in the match, bets will be void.   

m.) Player to score the winning goal: Bets are settled on the player to score in the match within 90 minutes. If a match is not completed, all bets will be void. We will make every effort to quote prices for all probable players. However, prices for unquoted players will always be available on request and those players will count as winners in the event that they score the winning goal. If a team wins by more than one goal, the separating goal will be deemed as the winning goal - if a match finishes 3-1, the player who scores to make it 2-1 will be settled as the winner. Own goals do not count; if an own goal is deemed the winning goal, settlement carries over to the next goal - if a match finishes 2-0 after an own goal makes it 1-0, the scorer of the goal to make it 2-0 will be deemed the winner. If the winning goal is an own goal with no further goals scored after (i.e. 1-0) all bets will stand. Where there is a dispute concerning who scored the goals in a match, bets are settled on the first result published by the official source/governing body or alternatively the official website of the relevant event, immediately after the match/event is finished. Any subsequent corrections or amendments to this result will not apply for settlement purposes. If the result is not immediately available from the official source/governing body or the official website of the relevant event, or there is significant evidence that the official source/governing body or official website is incorrect, we will use independent sources such as Press Association to decide settlement. In the absence of any consistent, independent evidence or in the presence of significant conflicting evidence, bets will be settled based on our own statistics.  

n.) Goalscorer head-to-head match betting: Bets are accepted on regular play only. Both players must start the match for bets to stand. If either player fails to start the match, all bets are void. 

o.) Next Goalscorer (in-play): Requires you to predict the player that will score the next goal in the match. Only available in-play. 90 minutes only, unless otherwise stated. All players that have taken some part in the game before the next goal is scored will be deemed runners. Bets on players that do not take any part in the game before the next goal is scored will be void. If there are no further goals scored "No Goalscorer" will be the winning selection. If no price is offered for "No Goalscorer" and no further goals are scored then all bets on the market will be void .If odds are quoted for an own goal, where the next goal is an own goal bets on named players to score the next goal will be settled as losers. If own goal is not offered the market will be settled on the next goal following the own goal. 

p.) 1st Goalscorer - Odd/Even goal minute: The bet is made up of two separate selections. The first player to score and the time of goal as an odd or an even number. Both parts of the selection need to be correct for the bet to be deemed a winner. If the First Player to Score selection has taken no part in the game at the time of the first goal the bet will be void. If the game finishes goalless the bet will be deemed a loser unless your selection has taken no part in the game in which case the bet will be made void. Bets will be settled on the first result announced by the official source/governing body or alternatively the official website of the relevant event. If the first goal is scored in injury time at the end of either half the bet will be settled on the official result that is announced. For example, if the first goal is scored in the 3rd minute of first half injury time and the official source/governing body or alternatively the official website of the relevant event announce the time of goal as the 45th minute, then for settlement purposes the goal will be deemed to have been scored in an 'Odd' minute.

q.) Trialists: Trialists do not count for First (or Last) Player to Score bets.  

r.) 1st Goalscorer Timecast/ Timecast Plus: This is for the time of the first goal scored and who scored it. Bets are accepted on regular play only. This market will be settled on the player to score the first legal goal. Please note that own goals do not count in the settlement of bets. If the game is abandoned at any time, the first legally scored goal counts. If no goal has been scored at the time of abandonment, all bets will be void. If a player has not entered the field of play before the first goal has been scored, then this player is deemed a “non-runner” and all bets on this player are void. 

“Own Goal”: If the first goal is an “Own Goal”, this market will be settled on the player to score the next legal goal, except bets on players who have not entered the field of play before the first goal has been scored, which means that such players are deemed “non-runners”. All bets on these players are void.

“Not in List”: If the first goal is scored by a player who is not in the list of players to bet on, all bets are “lost”, except bets on players who have not entered the field of play before the first goal has been scored, which means that such players are deemed “non-runners”. Bets on these players are void.For settlement purposes the 1st minute of the game is from 1 second to 59 seconds. The 2nd minute is from 1 minute to 1 minute 59 seconds and so on. For example, if a bet is placed on the first goal to be scored between 1 and 10 minutes and a goal is scored at 10 minutes 49 seconds, the bet is a loser as this falls within the 11 to 20 minutes time frame.  

If a goal is scored in injury time of the first half, the winning selection will be the 41-50mins bracket. If a goal is scored in injury time of the second half. the winning selection would be the 81-90mins bracket. If the match is abandoned after the first goal has been scored, then all bets will stand. If no goal has been scored all bets will be void

s.) Anytime Goalscorer Timecast/ Timecast Plus: This is for the time for a player to score a goal before/after a certain time. Bets are accepted on regular play only. This market will be settled on all players who score a legal goal. If a player doesn't enter the field of play during the game at all, then this player is deemed a "non-runner" - all bets on this player are void. If the game is abandoned at any time, all bets remain valid if already determined, except bets on players who have not entered the field of play during the match. For settlement purposes the 1st minute of the game is from 1 second to 59 seconds. The 2nd minute is from 1 minute to 1 minute 59 seconds and so on. For example, if a bet is placed on the first goal to be scored between 1 and 10 minutes and a goal is scored at 10 minutes 49 seconds, the bet is a loser as this falls within the 11 to 20 minutes time frame.  

If a goal is scored in injury time of the first half, the winning selection will be the 41-50mins bracket. If a goal is scored in injury time of the second half. the winning selection would be the 81-90mins bracket.  If the match is abandoned after the first goal has been scored, then all bets will stand. If no goal has been scored all bets will be void

t.) Total shirt numbers:   Own goals count i.e. the shirt number of the scorer of the own goal will count towards the side which is credited with the goal. The number of the shirt will be what the player wears when he first gets on the pitch at the start of play (or in the case of a substitute, when he comes on to the pitch). Any player whose shirt has no number will be allocated number 12. In the event of a match being abandoned before the match has been completed then all bets will be void unless already determined.

u.) How will the first goal be scored: "Free kick" is the winning option if the free kick taker scores directly from the free kick and is named as the goalscorer. Any scored goal that is not an “Own Goal”, a direct “Free Kick”, a “Penalty” or a “Header” is settled as a “Kick”. This means that when the ball enters the net for a legal goal from any part of the body other than the head and is not an “Own Goal”, a direct “Free Kick” or a “Penalty”, it is deemed a “Shot”. This rule also applies to bets on subsequent goals. We may also offer whether the first goal in a game will be scored - left leg, right leg, head or any other part of the body.  

If the goal is credited to a player but deflects off another player before going into the goal, that deflection is not taken in to account. For example, if a player hits the ball with his left foot but the ball deflects off a defender's knee into the goal, 'left foot' remains the winning selection.  

Own goals do not count for this market - if the goal is deemed to be an own goal all bets will be settled on the next goal.

18. Handicap Betting: Handicap bets are settled on the basis that one of the teams is given a goal(s) start. Bets are settled by adding or subtracting the goal(s) start to the regular result. Bets will be void if the match is abandoned prior to the completion of regular play. 

19. Half time/Full time: Bets are available on most matches where 1X2 prices are quoted. Bets are settled based on the result of the match at half time and full time (e.g. at the end of 45 minutes, including injury time, and full time whistle) Bets will be void if the match is abandoned prior to the completion of regular play. 

20. 1st Half Result/2nd Half Result: Customers are asked to predict the result for each separate half in one 90-minute game. For example: If Lincoln play Dagenham and lead 1-0 at half time and the game then finishes 1-0 after 90 mins, the result will be settled as Lincoln winning the first half and the draw as the result in the second half.

21. Double Chance: Bets are settled on the following possible outcomes in a specified football match, e.g. 

  • 1 or X – If the result is either a home or draw then bets on this option are winners. 
  • X or 2 – If the result is either a draw or away then bets on this option are winners. 
  • 1 or 2 – If the result is either a home or away then bets on this option are winners. 

If a match is played at a neutral venue the team listed first is deemed the home team for betting purposes. All bets settled on regular play, e.g. Celtic versus Rangers would appear as:  

  • Home/Draw - Celtic to win/Match to end in a draw  
  • Away/Draw - Rangers to win/Match to end in a draw  
  • Home/Away - Celtic to win/Rangers to win 

22. Draw No Bet: Which team will win the match? If the game finishes in a draw then stakes will be refunded, e.g. draw no bet, Home no bet and Away no bet. 

23. Corners markets: Corners awarded but not taken do not count e.g. corner is awarded before the final whistle and is not taken before the end of regular play, this will not count for settlement purposes. 

a.) Number of corners in a specific 15-minute period: Bets will be settled on the exact time the corners are taken rather than awarded or detailed by relevant third-party feed providers. If any resulting corner is not taken, it will not count for betting purposes. 

b.) Number of corners (regular time) – total over/under: Bets will be settled on total number of corners in regular play. In the event of an abandonment before regular play has been played then all bets will be void unless already determined. 

c.) Number of corners – Team 1/Team 2 for 1st half and 2nd half: Bets will be settled on total number of corners in regular play for specified team and specified half of play. 

d.) Most corners – team (3-way): Bets will be settled on the team who receives the most corners in regular play. In the event of an abandonment before regular play has been completed then all bets will be void. 

e.) Most corners 1st half/2nd half (3-way): Bets will be settled on the half with most corners in regular play. In the event of an abandonment before regular play has been completed then all bets will be void. 

f.) Race to 3 corners and race to 3 corners – 2nd half: Bets will be settled on the team who reach the quoted number of corners first. In the event of an abandonment before regular play has been completed then all bets will be void. Bets will be void if quoted number is not reached by either team. 

g.) Number of corners – Odd/Even: Predict whether the total number of corners will be an odd number or even number (no corner taken counts as even). 

h.) Number of corners 1st half – Odd/Even: Predict whether the total number of corners in the 1st half will be an odd number or even number (no corner taken counts as even). 

i.) Corners Double Result: This market offers betting on which team is awarded the most corners in the first half, and then which team is awarded the most corners in the second half.

j.) For settlement purposes, the timing of any corners will be based upon the time the kick was taken and not the time at which it was awarded.

24. Cards/Bookings markets:

All Cards shown are for regular play only, so any bookings that take place in extra time do not count for betting purposes. Any cards cancelled by the referee during the course of the match, shown to non-active players and cards shown before the kick off or after the final whistle do not count. Cards shown during the half-time interval count towards second half and full-time markets.

Cards shown between the final whistle of regular time and the start of extra time do not count.

During tournaments, bets are settled on the total number of bookings that occur within a specified FIFA or UEFA tournament. The official result from the FIFA or UEFA website will be used for settlement.

a.) First yellow/red card: In the event of two or more players receiving a card for the same incident then the player who is first shown a card by the referee will be deemed the winner for settlement purposes. Where the selected player does not take part or comes on after the first card is received, bets will be void.

b.) Will (player X) get a yellow card (regular play only)?: Only players that take part in the match are valid for this market. Cards shown to non-players, e.g. managers, substitutes do not count.

c.) Number of yellow cards (total): If a player is sent off for two yellow cards, this counts as two yellow cards. eg. 1 Yellow Card – 1, 2 Yellow Cards resulting in Red Card – 2, Direct Red Card – 0 yellow cards. If the match is abandoned, all bets will be void unless the market is already determined - e.g. Team A over 2.5 yellow cards - three yellow cards awarded to Team A before abandonment is settled as a winner. Cards shown to non-players, e.g. managers, substitutes do not count.

d.) Number of red cards (total): If a player is sent off for two yellow cards, this counts as one red card. Direct red cards count as one red card. If the match is abandoned, all bets will be void unless the market is already determined - e.g. Team A over 0.5 red cards – 1 red card awarded to Team A before abandonment is settled as a winner.

e.) Number of cards (yellow and red cards in total): There is a maximum of three cards can be awarded per player e.g. One Yellow Card - 1, Direct Red Card – 2 Two Yellow Cards resulting in Red Card - 3. If the match is abandoned, all bets will be void unless the market is already determined - e.g. Team A over 3.5 cards – 3 yellow cards and 1 red card awarded to Team A before abandonment is settled as a winner.

f.) Number of yellow cards (points): If a player is sent off for two yellow cards, this counts as two yellow cards. eg. One Yellow Card – 10 points, Two Yellow Cards resulting in Red Card – 20 Points, Direct Red Card – 0 Points. If the match is abandoned, all bets will be void unless the market is already determined - e.g. Team A over 25 yellow cards points - three yellow cards awarded to Team A (30 points) before abandonment is settled as a winner.

g.) Number of red cards points: If a player is sent off for two yellow cards, this counts as one red card (25 points) If the match is abandoned, all bets will be void unless the market is already determined - e.g. Team A over 20 red card points – 1 red card awarded (25 points) to Team A before abandonment is settled as a winner.

h.) Number of  Booking points combined: One Yellow Card - 10 points, Direct Red Card - 25 points, Two Yellow Cards resulting in Red Card - 35 points. If the match is abandoned, all bets will be void unless the market is already determined - e.g. Team A over 20 red card points – 1 red card awarded (25 points) to Team A before abandonment is settled as a winner.

25. Half-Time betting:  All bets placed on outcomes to occur during the 1st half apply to the period between the start of the match and the end of the 1st half (e.g. at the end of 45 minutes including injury time). Bets will be void if the match is abandoned unless already determined. This includes bets on the market ‘Half-Time or Full-Time' (bet wins if result is true either at half-time or full-time) whereby if the match is abandoned after the completion of the 1st half then winning selections for that period will stand and all other bets will be void.  

a.)  All bets placed on outcomes to occur during the half-time break apply to the period between the end of the 1st half and the time at which the 2nd half commences. 
b.) All bets placed on outcomes to occur in the 2nd half apply to the period between the start of the 2nd half and the end of the 2nd half. 
c.)  The start/end of the half is defined by the referee’s whistle which starts/ends the respective half. 
d.)  All cards shown outside of regular play will not count (half-time break cards count but anything after full-time doesn’t count).

26. Team to win both halves: The 90 minute match is treated as two separate 45 minute halves and therefore your selection must score more goals than the other team in each of the two halves, e.g. if your selection scores in the first half of the match and the match finishes 1-0, although the first half was won 1-0, the score in the second 45 minutes was 0-0 and therefore a draw. If this occurs, only the first half was considered to be a winning selection and therefore bets will be settled as losers. 

27. Own goals:  Teams: For bets referring to teams, own goals always count for the team the goal is awarded to in the match. E.g. if a player of Team A scores an own goal, the goal will be awarded to Team B for betting purposes. 

a.) Goalscorers: for bets referring to goalscorers, own goals do not count for betting purposes. 
b.) For all other bets involving goals, own goals do count for betting purposes unless otherwise stated. 

28. Goal markets:

a.) Highest scoring half: For this market you need to decide which of the two halves will contain more goals, and also if the two halves will be drawn, i.e. both halves will contain the same amount of goals.

b.) Time of the first goal: For this market you need to decide the time that the first goal of the game will be scored, within the stated time period. Single bets are only accepted on this market.  

c.) Highest scoring team/match: Bet on which team/match will produce the most goals on a given match day. In the event of a tie, dead heat rules apply unless the price for a tie is quoted.  

Only the named games count for betting purposes. If five or more games are offered and two or more of the games are postponed, then all bets are void. If fewer than five games are offered and one or more of the games are postponed, then all bets are void.  

29. Run of play: This bet will be settled on the first team to take the lead in combination with the final result at the end of regular play regardless of how often the lead may change in between. 

30. Team to lead at anytime: Bets are settled when a team takes the lead in a match. Own Goals DO count for this market e.g. Chelsea are playing Spurs and Chelsea take the lead through an own goal by a Spurs player. Chelsea are awarded the goal, so the 'Chelsea' selection becomes a winner in the 'Team to Lead at Anytime' market. Both teams can be settled as winners in this market e.g. if Chelsea go 1-0 up and then Spurs go 2-1 ahead, both teams have lead in the match and therefore both selections are winners. Normal 90 minutes betting rules apply.  

If a match is abandoned after it has commenced, all bets on this market will be made void except where settlement has already been determined. For example, if either or both teams have led at the point the match is abandoned then "Yes" will be settled as the winner for the relevant selection(s).

31. Team to lead at half-time & fail to win: Prices are for team to be winning at half-time and fail to win the match (I.e. lose or draw). In the event of a match being abandoned before the match has been completed then all bets will be void unless already determined.

33. Time periods: For all bets referring to occurrences or results in relation to time periods, bets will be settled on the exact time as shown by the clock of the TV/Feed providers, e.g. 15 minute bets, time of first goal and time of last goal. If results from TV coverage/Feed providers are unavailable or ambiguous, settlements will be based on official statistics and data provided by third-party feed providers. 

a.) 0-Minute Free-Kick, Corner and Throw-In betting (can also include bookings, goals and the result at the end of just that 10 minute period): this market is offered for the number of free kicks, corners and throw-ins, in a 10 minute segment, during a match. The 80 minutes to full-time segment will include any stoppage / injury time at the end of the match.  

  • For settlement purposes, a penalty is not classed as a free kick and the actual free kick, corner or throw has to be completed to be counted in the total. In other words simply being awarded a free-kick, etc. will not count for settlement purposes.  

b.) Rapid Fire Football markets: Rapid Fire is an innovative and immediate in-play product offered on selected football matches. A specific betting window to place bets on what the next outcome of the match will be.   

Rapid Fire consists of the following markets which will be offered at various intervals during the match:   

  • Next Set Piece  
  • What's Next?   
  • Rapid Goal   

Bet on whether there will be a goal in the next 60 seconds of a Free Kick, Corner or Penalty being taken.   

The betting window for a Rapid Goal market will typically be activated shortly after the whistle is blown for a Free Kick in an attacking area, Corner or Penalty, and close a few seconds before the Free Kick, Corner or Penalty is actually taken.   

As soon as the Free Kick, Corner or Penalty is taken, an on-screen countdown bar will start counting down from 60, representing the 60 seconds in which a goal must be scored to be considered a "Rapid Goal" and subsequently resulted as a successful bet.   

In the event that the referee blows the whistle for a penalty kick during the 60-second Rapid Goal in-play period, the penalty kick will be deemed to have occurred within the 60-second in-play period, regardless of when it is actually performed.   

For example: if (i) the referee blows the whistle for a penalty kick in the 59th second following a Free Kick and Corner (ii) the penalty kick is successful, then, regardless of when the penalty kick was actually performed, the goal will be deemed to have been scored within the 60-second in-play period for purposes of resulting the Rapid Goal bet.  

For result purposes, a goal will be deemed to have been scored the moment the ball completely crosses the goal-line within the confines of the goal posts, provided that the referee ultimately awards the goal. (E.g., if the ball passes the goal-line within the confines of the goal posts within the 60-second Rapid Goal in-play period, but the goal is not awarded because, for example, a foul occurred before the shot, then a goal will not be deemed to have been scored.)    

Rapid Fire markets are made available to customers at various intervals in selected matches. The outcome is specific to the stated time during the match as displayed in the market header.   

Betting Window: when the market is activated a 40 second countdown timer appears highlighted in green this is the bet placement period. The countdown timer will change to red to highlight the last 10 seconds of the betting opportunity.   

'Cooling Off' Period: following the 40 second betting window the countdown timer will turn green stating a period of 'no more bets'. The market will display this status for 10 seconds.   

In Progress: an 'In Progress' message will appear highlighted in blue, following the 'Cooling Off' period, informing that all accepted bets are now active.   

Result: once the result is known, the winning selection will be highlighted within the market, this denotes that bets have now been settled. Rapid Fire market will remain suspended until the next time stamped market is activated.   

For both Rapid Fire markets, any of the wagering options may be suspended at any point during the 40 second betting window if the trader deems it necessary.   

The following rules apply to this market:

35. Time of first goal: For settlement purposes the 1st minute of the game is from 1 second to 59 seconds. The 2nd minute is from 1 minute to 1 minute 59 seconds and so on. For example, if a bet is placed on the first goal to be scored between 1 and 10 minutes and a goal is scored at 10 minutes 49 seconds, the bet is a loser as this falls within the 11 to 20 minutes time frame.  

If a goal is scored in injury time of the first half, the winning selection will be the 41-50 mins bracket. If a goal is scored in injury time of the second half. the winning selection would be the 81-90 mins bracket.  

If the match is abandoned after the first goal has been scored, then all bets will stand. If no goal has been scored all bets will be void

a.) Time of next match goal: If a goal is scored in injury time of the first half, the winning selection will be the 41-50 mins bracket. If a goal is scored in injury time of the second half, the winning selection would be the 81-90 mins bracket.  

b.) Time of next home/away goal: In games played at a neutral venue, the home side will be deemed to be the first named one. For example, if an event is called 'Holland vs Spain', then Holland would be the 'home' team as they are named first, and Spain would be the 'away' team.  

If a goal is scored in injury time of the first half, the winning selection will be the 41-50 mins bracket. If a goal is scored in injury time of the second half. the winning selection would be the 81-90 mins bracket.

c.) Early/Late goal time before/after: Betting on early/late goal time in the match. Markets are settled on the time of the early/late goal time before time “x” and after time “y"”. For example:

37. Clean Sheet:  Player – Named player must not concede a goal for the entire match (i.e. Must play full game). If the player is sent off or substituted, it will result in the bet being lost. 90 minutes play only. Abandoned match bet void.

38. Extra time betting:  Extra time is defined as any scheduled period of play between the end of normal time (i.e. 90 minutes play plus any time added on for stoppages) and the end of the game.  

Extra time does not include penalty shoot outs. All extra time betting markets, such as 'Correct Score', or 'Time of First Goal', will start from the beginning of extra time and not include normal time. For example, if the game finishes 2-2 at the end of normal time and there are no goals scored in extra time, the 'extra time correct score' market will be settled as '0-0'. 

39. Penalty markets:  Markets offering odds on penalties being scored or missed will be settled with all selections as losers in the event of no penalty being awarded. For settlement purposes, the timing of any penalty kicks will be based upon the time the kick was taken and not the time at which it was awarded.  

40. Penalty shootouts: The in-play markets "Shootout winner", "Outcome of Next Penalty", "Sudden death?" and "Total penalties converted" apply only to the result of a penalty shootout. Penalties scored in normal time and/or extra time will not count for the purposes of this market. A shootout is deemed to have gone to sudden death if both sides have taken 5 penalties each and the score remains level. Sudden death rounds of one kick each are then taken until one team scores and the other team does not. In the event that a match does not go to a penalty shootout, all bets on these four in-play markets will be void.

a.) Win on penalties: For the bet to win the match must go to a penalty shootout. If the match fails to go to a penalty shootout bets will be losers,

Should any games be abandoned during play, then all bets will be void unless already determined. 

44. Team to Qualify for next round: If a game offered within a specific round of a competition is postponed, team to qualify bets still stand, irrespective of the length of the delay. If a team qualifies for the next round but no match is played (opposition withdraws/is disqualified), all bets on the To Qualify market will be void. When a price is quoted for a team to qualify for the next round of a given tournament over two legs, bets placed on that market will be settled immediately on completion of the second match based upon the events that occur during both matches. This will include normal time, injury/stoppage time added on by the match official at the end of normal time, extra time, away goals if applicable, and penalty shoot-outs; should the tie progress as such. Matches where one leg of the tie is no longer played at the venue advertised, bets will stand as long as the venue remains in the same country and is not switched to the opponent's ground/another country. Should this occur, all bets will be void. Matches originally set to be played in a neutral country will stand if moved to another country.
