  • 1X (Home/Draw) – a bet on either the home team winning, or a draw;

  • 2X (Away/Draw) – a bet on either the away team winning, or a draw;

  • 12 (Home/Away) – a bet on either the home or away team winning. If a draw occurs, the bet is considered lost.

Total Goals/Points Over/Under <X> (<Specified playing time>)
A bet on whether the total goals/points scored by both teams or players during the specified playing time will be over or under a specified figure <X>. If the number of goals/points scored is exactly equal to the specified figure, the bet will be void. There is also an Asian variant where the figure <X> can have quarter increments, such as 1.25, 1.75, 2.25, 2.75, etc. In the case of quarter increments, the bet is split into two, and the stake is divided equally between the nearest half increment and the nearest whole increment bets.
Examples:

  • The stake for Over 1.25 is divided equally between bets for 1.0 (whole increment) and 1.5 (half increment);

  • The stake for Over 1.75 is divided equally between bets for 1.5 (half increment) and 2.0 (whole increment);

  • The stake for Under 2.25 is divided equally between bets for 2.0 (whole increment) and 2.5 (half increment).

For Asian bets there can be three possible outcomes: Full Winning, Partial Winning and Lost. For example, the following outcomes can occur for a Total Goals Under 2.25 bet:

  • Full Winning – for the bet on Under 2.25 to be successful, the nominal home and away teams must score fewer than 2 goals combined. Both halves of the bet will then win. Score examples: 1:0, 0:1, 0:0.

  • Partial Winning – if exactly 2 goals are scored in the match, the part of the bet on Under 2.5 will be successful, and the part on Under 2 will be returned (void). Thus, only one part of the total bet will win. Score examples: 2:0, 0:2, 1:1.

  • Lost – if the match is high-scoring with three or more goals, the bet on Under 2.25 is completely lost. Score examples: 3:1, 1:2, 2:2.

    Extra time in-play bets are settled on the official statistics for the extra time period. Any goals, cards or corners that were scored, received or taken during regulation time do not count.

  5. 5.

    In order for bets to be valid, the match must be played in full, except in cases where the result of the market is already identified at the time the match was stopped.

  6. 6.

    All cards, score adjustments etc. that occur after the final whistle of the referee are not considered as part of the final result.

  7. 7.

    All cards and adjustments that occur in the interval between the first and second half, shall count for the overall results of the match, but will not be considered for half betting.

  8. 8.

    Where a bet is struck to “win outright”, “lift the cup” or “to progress” there shall be no betting on the draw, as extra time, golden-goal or penalties may be required to decide the outcome. In cases where the draw is offered, it will be deemed to have been in error, and any bets on the draw will be refunded.

  9. 9.

    The terms normal time, full time, and 90 minutes play are all used to denote the period of play. This includes any injury/stoppage time added on by the match official at the end of normal time. Extra time and penalty shoot-outs do not count unless otherwise stated.

6.10.2. Bet acceptance and settlement

  1. 1.

    Prices shall be displayed on both teams as well as the draw. Teams playing on a neutral ground may be shown as either home or away. The price on the home team should be displayed first (or on the left side) and then the price on the away team or it must be clearly indicated which is the home team.

  2. 2.

    Selections are accepted up to kick-off time. Any bet inadvertently taken where the kick-off time was earlier than when the bet was accepted will be void.

  3. 3.

    Adjustments to a settlement will not be made for any changes or adjudications made by governing bodies after the event.

  4. 4.

    Bets relating to time will be settled according to the timing of the broadcaster’s clock or according to the information published on the internet (official websites, e.g., the official site of the league, or the live data providers) or by the Press Association, whichever is deemed more accurate.

  5. 5.

    Settlement of “first or last player to score” bets shall be based on the goal scorer credited with the goal. Own goals do not count.

    If a match is abandoned, “first player to score” bets will stand provided a goal has been scored.

  8. 8.

    In “first goal scorer” bets, the “any other goal scorer” selection means any player besides those quoted in the market. Only players NOT quoted in this market will be taken into account for the “any other player” bets.

  9. 9.

    Where various betting opportunities are offered for the same match (e.g., correct score, first player to score, half-time or full-time result forecast) these cannot be combined in multiple bets where the outcome is related or where the result of one part of the bet contributes or assists in determining the outcome of another part of the bet. Where a multiple bet of this type has been accepted in error, it shall be settled by equally dividing the stake unit where the related outcomes clash; for example: Chelsea to win with the exact score 3-0 (10/1) and Chelsea to win in 90 minutes (1-1) is a related bet and therefore any bets placed on this double would be amended and the stake on the double split between the two individual bets; i.e., if R200 was placed on the double, the bet would be amended to read R100 on Chelsea to win 3-0 (1000/100) and R100 on Chelsea to win in 90 minutes (100/100).

    Where various betting opportunities are offered for the same tournament (e.g., pick the finalists, teams to or not to proceed to further stages of the tournament, a team to win a group) these cannot be combined in multiple bets where the outcome is related. When a multiple bet of this type has been accepted in error, it will be settled by equally dividing the stake unit where the related outcomes clash.

  1. 1.

    Selections on any matches that are postponed by more than 36 hours after the advertised date, or where there is a change of venue, shall become void.

6.10.4. Abandoned matches

  1. 1.

    Should a match start and be abandoned prior to the completion of full time and an official result is declared by the governing association of the match or event within 24 hours, relevant bets will be determined on that result, notwithstanding any later changes to the result and/or error. However, in these circumstances, selections which are dependent upon the number of goals scored (including handicap bets) are void.

  2. 2.

    If a soccer match is officially called off prior to its scheduled completion and an official match result is not declared by the relevant recognised governing body within 24 hours, selections not determined at the time the match is concluded are deemed void.

7. Betting Rules on Lottery Draws

This section is related to betting on the results of the world famous lotteries. Such a betting product is called Lucky Numbers.

7.1. Lucky Numbers

7.1.1. General rules

  1. 1.

    All Lucky Numbers bets are based on the numbers that are drawn from the respective lotteries.

  2. 2.

    The dates and times must be displayed in the local time where the Lucky Numbers bet was placed.

  3. 3.

    Any bonus ball selections should be indicated as such.

  4. 4.

    Draws where the bonus ball is included as a regular ball number should be indicated as such.

  5. 5.

    Draws where the bonus ball is excluded as a regular ball number should be indicated as such.

  6. 6.

    Bonus Ball or Powerball bet types are applicable to the Bonus Ball or Powerball only.

  7. 7.

    In lotteries where more than one bonus ball is to be drawn, only the first of the bonus balls will count as a winning ball. The other supplementary balls will not be considered a winner.

  8. 8.

    All Lucky Numbers bets for a specific draw must be placed and confirmed before the first number is drawn. If, for any reason, a bet is placed after the first number is drawn, the bet will be void irrespective of whether it wins or loses.

  9. 9.

    If a lotto draw time is rescheduled to another time within 24 hours of the advertised time of the draw all bets on that draw will stand.

  10. 10.

    If a lotto draw time is rescheduled by more than 24 hours of the advertised time of the draw all bets on that draw will be deemed void.

  11. 11.

    If, for any reason, all the details necessary to settle any market for a specific draw cannot be obtained within 48 hours then all bets on that market will be void.

  12. 12.

    If the specified number of balls to be drawn is changed all bets on that draw will be void.

  13. 13.

    If the specified number of balls available is changed all bets on that draw will be void.

  14. 14.

    All of the selected numbers need to be drawn in order for the bet to win. For example, if a customer selects 4 numbers and 3 or less of those balls are drawn, there is no payout. Likewise with 2 and 3 numbers.

7.1.2. Lottery types

All Lucky Numbers lotteries a customer bets on are divided into two groups: Standard type and Powerball type lotteries.

Standard type lotteries may or may not have a Bonus Ball option. In those lotteries that have a bonus ball option, the bonus ball is selected from the main set of balls after the draw of regular balls has been finalised.

In the Powerball type lotteries, the Bonus Ball or “Powerball” should be drawn from a secondary set of balls which generally have a different number of balls to the main ball set. The following draws are considered as Powerball type lotteries: Australia Powerball, French Loto, Greece Joker, South Africa Powerball, Switzerland Powerball, UK Thunderball, USA Mega Millions and USA Powerball.

7.1.3. Standard type lottery markets

For resulting purposes and unless otherwise stated, the Bonus Ball, if applicable, will count towards the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 Numbers bet selections if applicable.

The following markets are offered on the Standard type lottery draws:

  • 1 Number – a bet to predict 1 ball number drawn in a lottery draw;

  • 2 Numbers – a bet to predict 2 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw;

  • 3 Numbers – a bet to predict 3 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw;

  • 4 Numbers – a bet to predict 4 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw;

  • 5 Numbers – a bet to predict 5 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw;

  • 6 Numbers – a bet to predict 6 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw;

  • Bonus Ball – a bet to predict the bonus ball number drawn;

  • Bonus Ball Low / High – a bet to predict the value of the bonus ball number being within the low or high half of the ball set it’s drawn from. If the ball set does not split evenly and the “middle” ball is drawn then all bets on this market will lose.
    For example, the bonus ball will be drawn from a set of 49 balls then the low numbers are from 1 to 24 and high numbers are from 26 to 49. In this case, number 25 is the bookmaker’s ball and all bets on high-low will be losers if number 25 is drawn as the bonus ball;

  • Bonus Ball Odd / Even – a bet to predict the bonus ball number being either odd or even;

  • Bonus Ball Single – a bet to predict the bonus ball being a single digit number, i.e., 1 to 9.

7.1.4. Powerball type lottery markets

In the Powerball type lotteries, the Bonus Ball or Powerball will be drawn from the secondary set of balls. For resulting purpose, the Bonus Ball or Powerball does NOT count towards the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 Numbers bet selections if applicable.

The following markets are offered on the Powerball type lottery draws:

  • 1 Number – a bet to predict 1 ball number drawn in a lottery draw. The selected number must be drawn from the main set of balls in order to win;

  • 2 Numbers – a bet to predict 2 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw. All selected numbers must be drawn from the main set of balls in order to win;

  • 3 Numbers – a bet to predict 3 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw. All selected numbers must be drawn from the main set of balls in order to win;

  • 4 Numbers – a bet to predict 4 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw. All selected numbers must be drawn from the main set of balls in order to win;

  • 5 Numbers – a bet to predict 5 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw. All selected numbers must be drawn from the main set of balls in order to win;

  • 6 Numbers – a bet to predict 6 ball numbers drawn in a lottery draw. All selected numbers must be drawn from the main set of balls in order to win;

  • 1 Number + Bonus Ball – to predict 1 ball number to be drawn from the main set of balls and the bonus ball number in order to win;

  • 2 Number + Bonus Ball – a bet to predict 2 ball numbers to be drawn from the main set of balls and the bonus ball number in order to win;

  • 3 Number + Bonus Ball – a bet to predict 3 ball numbers to be drawn from the main set of balls and the bonus ball number in order to win;

  • 4 Number + Bonus Ball – a bet to predict 4 ball numbers to be drawn from the main set of balls and the bonus ball number in order to win;

  • Bonus Ball – a bet to predict the bonus ball number drawn;

  • Bonus Ball Low / High – a bet to predict the value of the bonus ball number being within low or high half of the ball set it’s drawn from. If the ball set does not split evenly and the “middle” ball is drawn then all bets on this market will lose.
    For example, the bonus ball will be drawn from a set of 49 balls then the low numbers are from 1 to 24 and high numbers are from 26 to 49. In this case, number 25 is the bookmaker’s ball and all bets on high-low will be losers if number 25 is drawn as the bonus ball;

  • Bonus Ball Odd / Even – a bet to predict the bonus ball number being either odd or even;

  • Bonus Ball Single – a bet to predict the bonus ball being a single digit number, i.e., 1 to 9.

10. Slot Games Rules

A slot machine is a gambling device with three or more reels where a punter ‘spins’ the reels and bets on the outcome of the ‘spin’. The reels are marked with symbols, which stop randomly after each spin. A punter inserts one or more coins into a slot and spins the reels by pulling a handle or pushing a button. If these symbols line up, the punter wins prizes based on which symbols fall on any selected “payline”. Online slot machines work in exactly the same manner, only punters are not required to insert physical coins into the machine and do not need to pull a physical lever or push a physical button. Online slots allow punters to play a variety of curated games on the go, on a computer or a smartphone, any time, anywhere.

All online slots bets are based on fixed-odds betting rules.
