This includes hiding the Internet Protocol (IP) location of the Member via such means as a Virtual Private Network or an equivalent service (VPN). On discovery, or reasonable suspicion of Masking, or attempted Masking, we reserve the right to take any action described in clause 10, without prior notice. Further, Beirne Racing may, from time to time, monitor transactions on Accounts and check the location of any given transaction. We also reserve our right take action described in clause 10 where transactions appear to be originating from a Prohibited Jurisdiction.

We reserve our right to suspend or cancel an Account where this is the case.
(h) You agree that your Account is not a bank account and is therefore not to be insured, guaranteed, sponsored, or otherwise protected by any deposit or banking insurance or by another other similar insurance system.

3 MEMBER IDENTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION
3.1 A Member must successfully undertake Identification and Verification before opening an Account. This must be in compliance with the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth) (AML/CTF Act) and its associated rules (AML/CTF Rules and, together with the AML/CTF Act, the AML/CTF Legislation). Under section 4.2.6 of the AML/CTF Rules an individual Member must provide a minimum proof of their full name, date of birth and their residential address to meet the Identification and Verification. You accept and acknowledge that we must abide by the AML/CTF Legislation.
3.2 You agree that the Identification and Verification information you provide to us to open an Account is true and correct, is not misleading (including by omission) and that they are your own personal details and not the details of anyone else. You acknowledge that it is an offence under the AML/CTF Legislation to knowingly give information that is false and misleading to a reporting entity (such as Beirne Racing). We rely on the information that you provide being true and correct. If we have reasonable ground to suspect that the warranty set out in this clause is false, and/or any information you provide is untrue, incorrect, or misleading, then, without limiting any other provision of these Terms, we may under any action described in clause 10.
3.3 Identification and Verification must occur before you can open an Account An Account will only be created when a Member has successfully completed Identification and Verification. A Member can only deposit funds, place Bets and withdraw funds if that Member has an Account. Should Identification and Verification not successfully occur as part of an attempted account opening, an Account will not be created until such time as Identification and Verification is successfully completed. We also reserve the right to void any pending or resulted Bets if information supplied by you is found to be inaccurate or incomplete. A failure to comply with Identification and Verification obligations may result in an investigation of the Account and where a reasonable basis exists, a referral to the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) and/or another relevant authority.
3.4 When establishing an Account and/or making the first deposit into the Account, the Member accepts that we will provide that Member’s Personal Information (including KYC information) to our choice of a third-party credit-based entity such as Green ID, for the purposes of independent Identification and Verification services (Third Party IDV). Third Party IDV may involve checking the provided identification across other third-party databases and/or credit headers. Third Party IDV is an independent service, not under the control of Beirne Racing, and accordingly we cannot guarantee that 100% of our Members will be successfully verified this way or the timeframes for completion of Third Party IDV. Unfortunately, this may mean your Identification and Verification may not be successful or could be delayed. We are not responsible for any such delay or Identification and Verification failure. Beirne Racing will pass on only the bare minimum of your Personal Information required to undertake the Third Party IDV. No personal financial information of a Member is passed between Beirne Racing and any Third Party IDV.
3.5 Where KYC documents used for Identification and Verification do not have the Member’s current address clearly on the front or back of the provided documents, you must provide an acceptable alternate proof of your current residential address. An acceptable proof of address may include, at our discretion, a certified copy of one or more of the following documents (which must be dated no more than 3 months prior to the date that the Member provides the document to us):
(a) a rates notice of your principal place of residence;
(b) a utility bill;
(c) a statement from a financial institution; and
(d) any other certified document which we may request if we consider it appropriate.
3.6 All documents related to Identification and Verification which you are required to provide to us must be provided in English (or with a certified English translation, if applicable) or they may be rejected. We may at our discretion elect to conduct further investigations into any documents provided. Further investigations may not be limited to instigating direct contact with the Member to confirm any provided documents, or its contents. We reserve our right to reject any KYC document provided to us if we reasonably consider that the document does not satisfy the regulatory or legal requirements. Further, we reserve the right to ask for additional information or documentation be supplied if the copies are illegible, unclear, we need further information to satisfy ourselves of your identity, or otherwise comply with AML/CTF Legislation. This includes, from time to time, where we may request proof that all KYC documents are up to date and to produce further documents if there has been a change. Any further request made to documents in these circumstances may require newly provided documents to also be certified. If you do not provide, or if we are unable to verify, such additional information, your Account will be suspended, and you will not be able to transact or withdraw any funds until such time as your identity has been verified. If such additional information is not provided or able to be verified after a protracted period of time, then the Account may be closed.
3.7 Where a Member deliberately falsifies any KYC documents, related document or details for any purpose associated with their interactions with us, or with opening and/or transacting on an Account, we may suspend or cancel the Account without prior notice to the Member and void any pending or resulted Bets.
3.8 We may, on request, require further and better copies of any debit, virtual, prepaid, travel card, or the like (Card Payment), that is not legible and used to fund an Account. We may choose to reject any form of Card Payment submitted at our discretion, in circumstances not limited to, the rejection or dishonour of a card. A Card Payment must match the Member’s Account details, or otherwise be verified. Where a Card Payment is used which does not match your Account details, or otherwise has not been verified by us, we may reject the transaction or suspend the Account until the consent, validity, or legality of the transaction is proven.
3.9 We reserve the right, at any time, to:
(a) request a bank statement associated with an actual or proposed Card Payment; or
(b) request you confirm the exact value of a small authorisation amount we have charged the third-party account attached to the Card Payment method; or
(c) request a legible copy of the front of the relevant Card Payment method.
4 ACCOUNT SECURITY
4.1 We take account security seriously. A Member is responsible for their own Account login credentials that include any; Personal Identification Number (PIN), password, login number or identifier (Login Credentials). A Member must keep their Login Credentials secure and confidential. Where a Member believes their Account or Login Credentials, or device they have used to access the Website, or their Account or the Login Credentials are lost, forgotten, or compromised they must immediately notify us. We may choose to issue new Login Credentials, or, at our sole discretion a new Account. In turn, we reserve our rights to reject or invalidate any transactions that occur using a Member’s past Account or Login Credentials.
4.2 In extremely limited circumstances where a Member wishes to use a nominated person to access to their Account or use their Login Credentials they must first receive written approval from us. We may refuse such request at our discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, a nominee includes, but is not limited to a family member, an authorised entity or company, business, or group of people (Nominee). We may request documentation (including certified documentation) from any proposed Nominee, or a written endorsement of the Account holder for the proposed Nominee to access the Account. The Member remains solely responsible for their Account, including but not limited to transactions, Bets and Account changes made by any Nominee. We do not accept any liability, loss or otherwise that results from a Nominee using a Member’s Account.
4.3 A Member is responsible for all Bets and any losses on their Account, be that by way of use by a Nominee or otherwise, where their Login Credentials have been used. This also includes a situation where:
(a) your device remembers or retains your Login Credentials (or part of your Login Credentials) for a certain period of time or indefinitely, either automatically or because you have selected an option to do so;
(b) your device keeps you logged into your Account for a certain period, either automatically or because you have selected an option to do so; or
(c) you do not manually log out of your Account.
4.4 A Member is responsible for ensuring that no person under the age of 18 (Minor) accesses or uses their Account. Where possible, a Member should be aware of the presence of any Minors while placing a Bet and seek to limit any exposure to a Minor of gambling and potential gambling harm. In circumstances where the Member shares a laptop or computer with a Minor, Beirne Racing strongly recommends the installation and use of parental/child protection software such as NetNanny or the like.
4.5 A Member is solely responsible for the balance of their Account and should confirm and query immediately any suspect transaction. We recommend that a Member check the balance of their Account each time they log onto their Account or at any time they place a Bet. It is the responsibility of the Member to immediately notify us where any suspected Account discrepancy is discovered.
4.6 The Beirne Racing Website contains content that is intended for access and use only by persons over the age of 18.
4.7 To use the Website, we advise that location data from your device while using the Website will be accessed and used by our integrated security systems to alert us to suspicious activity, for the purposes of protecting your Account security and preventing fraud. We may require you to register your devices to your Account and restrict the use of your Account to a certain number of unique devices at any time where we reasonably believe that multiple devices have been used in breach of these Terms.
5 MAKING A DEPOSIT OR A WITHDRAWAL
5.1 A Member may deposit Australian Dollars to their Account using debit card or electronic funds transfer (EFT) (Payment Method). We reserve the right to add, remove or restrict Payment Methods in general and specifically to any Member or group of Members. Current available payment methods can be viewed within the 'My Account' section of our Website when you are logged in to your Account.
5.2 You acknowledge and agree that the Account is only available for the sole purpose of Betting. Where we reasonably believe that funds deposited into an Account are for a purpose other than Betting, we reserve our right to decline any deposited amounts, return the funds to the Payment Method used (where possible), and close the Account.
5.3 You agree that when you deposit funds into your Account via any approved deposit methods (as set out in clause 5.1), you are purchasing from us a top up to your Account balance.
5.4 You agree and acknowledge that any deposits and withdrawals from your Account must be from/to a verified Payment Method unless otherwise determined by us in our absolute discretion.
5.5 If we discover that an Account is not funded by a Payment Method held in the Member’s name, or the Member is not demonstrably and expressly authorised to use the Payment Method, we may return the funds to the same Payment Method used to make that deposit. If this determination takes place after Bets have been placed, we reserve the right to void any resulted or pending Bets on the Member’s Account. If we determine that there is not enough information to prove the owner or authorisations in relation to a particular Payment Method, we reserve the right to request documentation (including certified documentation) as proof of ownership or a right to use a Payment Method prior to making any decision. You agree to comply with our reasonable requests.
5.6 We require a Member to “turnover” or Bet through any deposit into their Account at least once before a withdrawal request is made by the Member. For example, if you deposit $100, you must place $100 in Bets before withdrawing any winnings.
5.7 If a Member is restricted, or an error takes place during their Bet, or for any other reason as determined by us, we reserve our right to waive the obligation in clause 5.6 in our absolute and reasonable discretion.
5.8 We may, at our discretion, require a Member to withdraw funds back to the original Payment Method.
5.9 We reserve our right to investigate any potentially suspicious or fraudulent withdrawal or attempted withdrawal of a Member’s funds (Investigation). Such an Investigation may include or involve:
(a) requesting proof of deposit or withdrawal bank account information to verify that the information provided is true and correct (including the methods described in clause 3.9); and
(b) requesting further information as described in clause 5.5 to establish whether the withdrawal is authorised and correct.
5.10 We reserve the right to prevent any withdrawal, pending the outcome of an Investigation. Following an Investigation, we may permit, cancel, or reverse the deposit/withdrawal.
5.11 Subject to these General Terms and Conditions, we do not charge Members debit card deposit or withdrawal fees. However, we reserve the right to pass on any incurred transaction fees to Members who we determine make deposits into their Account in breach of these Terms (such as depositing funds for any purpose other than Betting). We may also charge a transfer fee (up to AU$25.00) transfer fee for an international transfer request. Any fees will be deducted from the amount requested by the Member. Any other banking fees associated with funding or withdrawing monies associated with a Member’s Account is the sole responsibility of the Member. If we receive any additional charge, or are notified of a potential charge, we reserve our right to pass on any such charge to the Member.
5.12 A Member agrees that they, as the authorised Account holder, are the only person permitted to withdraw, deposit or deal with monies on the Account, or otherwise use the Account (Transact). Members must use their own or a jointly held deposit and withdrawal method. You must not use your Account for the benefit of a third party or allow a third party to use your Account or Payment Method to Transact on your Account (unless in accordance with clause 4.2 above). Third parties should not attempt to Transact on a Member’s Account not in their name. Where we suspect that a third party has Transacted on your Account or you may have used your Account for the benefit of a third party, we may in our discretion undertake any actions described in clause 10.
5.13 Notwithstanding clause 10,
(a) we reserve the right to remedy the situation if it identifies any third party transaction on an Account in its absolute discretion. We may take any further action it deems necessary to fairly and reasonably remedy any transaction that has occurred. Members accept that we will review each situation on a case-by-case basis taking into account deposits, withdrawals, Bets and any other information available.
(b) you agree that where, by our determination, an Account has not been used in good faith (including where a person fails to disclose their identity or payment information), we may refuse future transactions on that Account. Further, we may allow or retrospectively void transactions on that Account. You are welcome to request clarification of any decisions made by us in relation to an Account suspension or closure. We will endeavour to answer your question by response within a reasonable time frame (usually within thirty (30) days).
(c) we may set limits on deposits and further restrict withdrawals on a Member’s Account where the Member has not met additional KYC and Identification and Verification requirements set down out in clause 3, until such time that we are satisfied that the Member has met such requirements.
5.14 Additional Accounts in a Member’s name (including any Account you opened with misspellings or different variations of your name) are not allowed and we will actively seek to discover non-compliance with this clause 5.16. Any discovery of a breach of this clause 5.16 will lead to the suspension and cancellation of the Account, without prior notice to the Member. Irrespective of this, a Member who has opened multiple Accounts will be responsible for any transactions that occur in relation to those Accounts. All restrictions, self-imposed or otherwise that apply to a Member’s principal account will likewise apply to a Member’s additional Accounts. This includes transferring self-exclusions and deposit limits to any additional Accounts.
5.15 Credit Betting is not permitted.
5.16 Interest is not paid on monies held in your Account.
5.17 Subject to these Terms, and the capability of any third-party payment service provider retained by us, we will process:
(a) deposits as soon as possible (and generally within minutes) after you input desired amount into the deposit section of the Website and select your desired Payment Method; and
(b) withdrawals within
1-3 business days.
6 CHARGE BACKS OR REVERSAL OF DEPOSITS
6.1 You agree and warrant that no charge back or other cancellation of deposits will be made relating to your Account without our approval, or prior approval. Should a charge back or cancellation circumstance occur, you indemnify us from all costs, fees and liability that may arise from such an event, including but not limited to the costs associated with recovering such amounts.
6.2 Where you dispute a transaction relating to a third-party or a banking institution, we may elect to temporarily suspend your Account and conduct an investigation in relation to the transaction. We reserve our rights to affect any suspension immediately, without notice and to further seek to recover any cost relating to that investigation from you.
6.3 We reserve the right to request information in relation to the source of funds in any transaction that we reasonably believe may be suspicious or require further investigation. Information requested to prove where funds have originated may include copies of bank statements (including certified copies). This may be requested prior to you being able to withdraw funds or requesting funds to be withdrawn. In addition, where we reasonably believe that any withdrawal request is unauthorised, we may decide not to return funds, and/or, void Bets pending resolution (if any) of our concerns.
7 ILLEGAL, FRAUDULENT OR UNAUTHORISED TRANSACTIONS (OR SERIES OF TRANSACTIONS)
7.1 Where we reasonably believe deposited funds or winnings associated with an Account are by an unauthorised or fraudulently used Payment Method, we reserve our right to undertake any action specified in clause 10. For the avoidance of doubt, all misuse, unauthorised use or fraudulent conduct associated with a Payment Method may be subject to any action described in clause 10.
7.2 Further, we may employ third party services, or technology to track and retain technical information on a device used in breach of this clause 7 or a Member’s Account more generally. Where an Account has not been operated in good faith, we may use this information to determine any investigation undertaken to assess Betting abuse, multiple Account usage, Payment Method abuse, potential breaches of the Terms and the like.
7.3 To detect or investigate suspected fraudulent activity we may, from time to time, monitor one or more Accounts we deem to be displaying unusual activity. Where we believe there to be a risk of fraudulent activity involved, we reserve the right to take any action described in clause 10.
7.4 Where we detect or become aware of any system that is being used to exploit variation in odds for a particular Sport or Race, between two or more bookmakers, in order to guarantee a profit irrespective of the outcome of the event (Arbitrage Betting), and that system is deemed by us to have a harmful or negative affect on us, we reserve our right take any action described in clause 10. Arbitrage Betting is an example of behaviour inconsistent with the intended supply of the Account for recreation and entertainment use.
8 LIVE STREAMING OF SPORTS OR RACING
8.1 We do not allow live or “in play” sports Betting within Australia, which is prohibited and unlawful except where we take Bets over the telephone. Other jurisdictions may allow “live streamer” Betting and you may be able to view live competitions or events on our Website or group of websites.
8.2 We do not have the right to, or own any, live feed media and any such media that may be streamed through third party services such as Twitch, Youtube or other providers (Streaming Services). These Streaming Services are subject to the individual rules of that Streaming Service. We are not responsible for the views or opinions presented by any streamer and will not accept responsibility or liability for any view or opinion expressed in Streaming Services or any other media that we may facilitate but not control. For example, message boards or other community-based communication avenues.

(d) withholding, retaining or recovering any winnings associated with the voided, cancelled or adjusted Bet (or part of a bet);
(e) requesting further information, identity documents, payment method verification or proof of source of funds;
(f) delaying settlement or payment pending completion of an investigation;
(g) reporting the matter to Australian principal racing authorities, an Australian governing sporting authority and/or to any other lawful regulator, including but not limited to AUSTRAC, ACMA, RVL, VGCCC and other related law enforcement agencies (collectively an Authority).

Examples include, but are not limited to, Cricket Australia, Racing Victoria, Australian Football League, Racing New South Wales and Greyhound Racing Victoria;
(h) reporting the matter to the provider of the Payment Method; and
(i) taking any other action reasonably necessary to protect account integrity, comply with law, or safeguard the integrity of racing and sports betting markets.
10.3 Any action taken under this clause may be applied on a temporary or permanent basis and may be taken immediately without notice where we consider the circumstances reasonably warrant it.
10.4 If we suspend, close or cancel your Account in accordance with these Terms, you will be:
(a) unable to further Transact on your Account;
(b) entitled to the reimbursement of any undisputed Account balance you may have. This will be accomplished via a verified Payment Method attached to the Account, or other method determined by us; and

10.5 Where a Bet is voided under this clause, we will refund the original stake unless otherwise permitted under these Terms.
11 PLACEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE OF BETS
11.1 All Bets placed on any Account are considered to be placed and received in Victoria, Australia.
11.2 We do not represent or warrant that placing or receiving Bets within your Account will comply with the legal requirements of any other jurisdiction outside of Victoria. Members must satisfy themselves and accept full responsibility of the legality of:
(a) their application to us for an Account or our associated services;
(b) remitting funds by a Payment Method or any other way to an Account or receiving funds from an Account; and
(c) placing Bets with and receiving winnings from us.
11.3 Subject to these terms, we do not warrant that we will accept any particular Bet.
11.4 We reserve our right to take any action described in clause 10 if any of the following apply:
(a) where you are or may be a Minor or Betting on behalf of a Minor;
(b) where you structure your Bets (including by placing those Bets as smaller Bets on the same event and for the same outcome in quick succession) in a manner which, in our reasonable opinion, appear to be for the purpose of ensuring that those Bets are accepted by us in circumstances where they otherwise might be rejected (for commercial and other reasons);
(c) where you are or may be Betting in breach of these Terms (including but not limited to, engaging in Masking or Arbitrage Betting) and any applicable law;
(d) you access or use the Website utilising any other type of automated, robotic, systematic, artificial, obscured, or computerised method(s). This includes, without limitation, the use of data extraction or scraping; and
(e) where, in our reasonable discretion, any proposed Bet may present a risk that we consider to be unacceptable. (such as due to integrity or other grounds).
11.5 When you make a Bet via the Website, the Bet is deemed to be valid only when:
(a) the Bet has been paid in full by you;
(b) the Bet has been accepted by us; and
(c) the Bet appears as an accepted Bet on your Account.
11.6 Irrespective of the appearance of the acceptance of a Bet, for the Bet to be valid it must actually be accepted by us after being processed through our system and receive a valid ticket number. We reserve the right to reject, void or stop any Bet that fails to meet the requirements of this clause 11.6 without notice.
11.7 You are solely responsible for entering and choosing the particulars of your Bets. You acknowledge that, in placing your Bet, you are not relying on any statement of any of our employees or representatives relating to the subject matter of the Bet. We take no responsibility for Bets made in haste, error, carelessly or otherwise and you indemnify us for any such error you make in Betting on your Account. We are under no obligation to cancel Bets that have been validly placed and accepted in accordance with these Rules.
11.8 Despite clause 11.7, we may be able to cancel or change a Bet made in error, or otherwise, at our sole discretion. In these circumstances, we may void the Bet and request that another Bet be made in its place. A pattern or suspected pattern of behaviour of a Member that seeks to alter or avoid Bets by claim of error may be deemed to breach these Terms. We may take any such lawful action we deem reasonable to address this type of conduct, including limiting, taking one or more actions described in clause 10.
11.9 We reserve the right to suspend or prohibit further Bets on any event at any time and without prior notice to you at our sole discretion. Should an event be suspended or access to it prohibited, any attempted Bets placed via the Website that follows the suspension or access prohibition will be rejected.
11.10 Bets will be accepted up to the relevant start time, being:
(a) the commencement of the event; or
(b) such other reasonable start time as determined by us on the basis of the information available on the event at the time.
11.11 Where a Bet is inadvertently or erroneously accepted after the relevant start time (as described above) then in our absolute discretion the Bet will be deemed to have been made invalidly, voided and the stake refunded the Member. For the purpose of this clause “inadvertently” means that we had no knowledge that the event in question had started and the Bet was accepted in good faith.
11.12 We accept no responsibility or liability for the failure of telecommunication or information technology-based systems not under our control that prevent or impede the correct placing, accepting, recording, confirmation or notification of transactions. To the extent possible under applicable law, we will not be responsible or liable for damages or losses that are deemed or alleged to have resulted from or been caused by the Website, or any of its content, including but not limited to any errors or omissions in content.
11.13 Where we do provide a “cash out” service, we may allow a Member the option to cash their Bet out prior to the conclusion of an event, match, competition or the like.
11.14 You acknowledge that we are required to keep a record of any customer service or related communications between Beirne Racing and our Members. This includes recording all customer phone calls as well as any transcripts, text or chat message transcripts, or email history which we retain to meet our obligations, at our sole discretion (Recorded Material). Additionally, in relation to our “Chat Support” text service, we reserve our right to retain and copy the history of transcripts that relate to any communication in text format. Where a Dispute (as defined in clause 13) arises which remains unresolved between us and you, you acknowledge that we may rely on the Recorded Material as evidence in any dispute resolution process or legal proceeding. All Recorded Materials will be retained by us consistently with our privacy obligations as described within our Privacy Policy.
11.15 Subject to the requirements of the Minimum Bet Limits:
(a) Bet Thresholds: the current minimum Bet is AU$0.50 and the maximum is AU$50,000 (Bet Thresholds). We reserve the right to alter the Bet Thresholds at our sole discretion and, where reasonable and practicable, without notice to you. We maintain Bet Thresholds to protect our risk and that of our Members.
(b) Maximum Win Limits: We reserve the right to limit the total winnings or dividends payable to any individual Member on any Bet type on a single event/selection or on multiple Bets which include at least one of the same selection in accordance with the tables below (Maximum Win Limit). Where a Bet is impacted by more than one Maximum Win Limit, the lower limit applies. For tote based Bet types, we reserve the right to limit the maximum winnings payable to the total size of the relevant tote pool for that Bet. If a Member places multiple Bets on the same or related markets they will only be eligible to win up to the Maximum Win Limit (combined) for those Bets. Similarly, if Bets are placed by or on behalf of a Member across multiple Accounts, the Maximum Win Limit will apply to all Bets placed across those Accounts. For the avoidance of doubt, the Maximum Win Limit does not impact our ability to not accept a Bet or limit the size of the stake it is willing to accept for a Bet, nor does it impact our ability to rely on and enforce our Terms. We maintain the Maximum Win Limit to protect our risk.

11.16 We reserve our right to provide any Personal Information, Betting data or information to an Authority in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You consent to any such information being provided when there is a reasonable and/or lawful basis or obligation to do so. We may provide the following information to an Authority:
(a) any record, Recorded Material, or data in our possession or control that relates to Betting transactions of the Member; and
(b) the name, contact details and similar identifying information in our possession or control relating to that Member.
11.17 Any such information provided to an Authority under clause 10.16 will only be provided to assist a legitimate inquiry conducted by an Authority, where required under a written agreement with the Authority and authorised under our Privacy Policy, or where we reasonably believe that our obligations under any relevant legislation or law requires us to provide it to the Authority. For example, under the AML/CTF Legislation.
12 ERRORS
12.1 We endeavour to ensure that no errors are made in setting markets including but not limited to errors in prices offered, market descriptions, wrong dividends or lines, available selections offered, Bets accepted on an Account or any errors in exclusions for certain events. We reserve the right (in good faith) to correct errors, or other genuine technical, human or other error or mistake that occurs in setting a market or processing a transaction (including where a Bet has been inadvertently accepted by us after the commencement of a race or event). This includes voiding any Bets or parts of Bets prior to or after the commencement or conclusion of a relevant event or, where appropriate, adjusting the Bet at the correct odds, in circumstances where a Bet has been accepted and where there has been a material technical, human, or other error in setting a market and/or in accepting a Bet (Material Error). Without limiting the steps that we might take, we may adjust your Account balance to the extent necessary to address the Material Error.
12.2 Where a Bet is voided or adjusted by way of an error made by us prior to an event commencing, we will endeavour to try to contact you by e-mail, text message, or a notification on your Account to inform you that the Bet has been voided or an adjustment has been made, the reason for the adjustment, and the amount adjusted.
12.3 For the purposes of this clause 11, an error in setting a market or accepting a Bet will be a Material Error in the following circumstances:
(a) the price struck for a Bet is materially greater than a price previously offered on the same or a similar market or contingency by us or any competing bookmaker;
(b) there is an error in the price of at least one selection which forms part of a multi Bet (parlay), the combined effect of which results in a materially erroneous price;
(c) the available selection(s) on a market are so different from the selection(s) previously offered on the same or a similar market by us or any competing bookmaker; or
(d) we accept Bets on closed or suspended markets;
(e) incorrectly calculating or settling an amount above what is legitimately due on the face of the Bet record or ticket (e.g., a refund or dividend);
(f) inadvertently making available selection(s) on a market or event which are restricted by an applicable law or regulation; or
(g) any other situation in which a reasonable person with a good understanding of wagering would reasonably understand that there was an error in a relevant market or in the acceptance of the Bet.
12.4 For the purposes of 11.3, and in any of the above circumstances:
(a) a Bet includes a single Bet or a multiple Bet; and
(b) if the erroneous price or selection is part of a multiple Bet placed by a Member, the selection is voided and then the multiple Bet is re-calculated minus that leg.
12.5 A Material Error may, depending on the circumstances, mean that we wrongly pay an amount to you, or we may pay you more than the amount to which you are properly entitled. In this situation, you agree to repay us immediately on request from us the amount which has been wrongly paid or overpaid to you. When making such a request, we will detail the Material Error and articulate how we have calculated the sum owing.
13 RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING
13.1 Beirne Racing takes responsible gambling seriously including by:
(a) facilitating gambling limits on request. Should a Member wish to limit the amount they may deposit into their Account (per day, week or month) (referred to as a “deposit limit”) they may do so at the time they establish their Account or any time afterwards; and
(b) providing a self-exclusion and ‘take a break’ options. You may stop Betting for a period of time or permanently if gambling has become an issue for you, or is causing you or others around you harm. You may cease gambling for an elected period through our Responsible Gambling tab under your Account which will offer a range of periods. We make the following options available to you:
· undertaking a temporary break (called ‘Short Break’) which involves suspending your Account for 1 day to six weeks. During this break you will be unable to access your Account or any associated features. When you next log in via app or web, at the conclusion of your break period, your Account will be unlocked, subject to our internal processes. We may ask you some responsible gambling questions before your Account is unlocked.
· undertaking a temporary self-exclusion which involves suspending your Account for six months to twelve months. During this temporary exclusion you will be unable to access your Account or any associated features. When you next log in via app or web, at the conclusion of your temporary self-exclusion period, your Account will be unlocked, subject to our internal processes. We may ask you some responsible gambling questions before your Account is unlocked.
· undertaking a permanent self-exclusion which involves suspending your Account permanently. After choosing a permanent self-exclusion option, you will be unable to access your Account or any associated features. You will be unable to log into your Account.
13.2 To effect responsible gambling measures listed in clause 12.1, we may retain Personal Information, for as long as required, to effectively implement self-exclusion facilities. The following minimum Personal Information will be retained to maintain an exclusion facility:
(a) your name;
(b) your address; and
(c) your payment details.
13.3 If you want to stop yourself from gambling with us, we also encourage you to self-exclude from other licensed bookmakers if you feel you are not able to gamble responsibly.
13.4 If you want to stop yourself from gambling with us and all other Australian licensed bookmakers, you can apply for a national self-exclusion by visiting https://www.betstop.gov.au/.
13.5 If you elect to self-exclude in any way (including both us with us directly or via the methods outlined in clause 12.5) (Excluded):
(a) you must not attempt to open a (further) Account to place Bets or engage in conduct that will enable you to make Bets via our services whether directly or indirectly or otherwise;
(b) you remain fully liable and responsible for your actions and all your activity and Bets placed; and
(c) subject to these
Terms, if we are of the opinion that you have, or are attempting to circumnavigate
imposed restrictions (by way of additional Accounts or otherwise) and have placed
Bets while Excluded, we may take any action described in clause 10. In addition, we
note that we reserve our rights to determine the following:
(i) any resulted Bets that resulted prior to you becoming Excluded will stand;
(ii) any resulted Bets that resulted after you becoming Excluded will be void and the original stake will be returned to your Account;
(iii) retain (or recover from you) the value of any winnings derived from cancelled or voided Bets withdrawn by you. We may deduct any winnings derived from such Bets from your Account balance; and
(iv) the balance of your Account will be returned to you.
13.6 Beirne Racing’s marketing and communication is aimed at those over 18 only. Beirne Racing does not market to Minors, Excluded individuals, or those who have withdrawn their consent to receive direct marketing from Beirne Racing. You may alter your marketing preferences at any time by amending your Account settings or contacting customer service at the details located on the Website, however, these may be channel specific (i.e., email, SMS, telephone opt outs), unless you opt-out of receiving all marketing from us.

If we do this, we will remit the total balance of your Account to you (less any amounts which we are entitled to deduct in accordance with these Terms).

14 DISPUTE RESOLUTION
14.1 These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the applicable law of Victoria and each Member irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of Victorian Courts in respect to any dispute that arises out of or in relation to these Terms, or of any service or product offered by Beirne Racing (Dispute).

14.4 Nothing in clause 13 precludes either party’s rights to seek urgent interlocutory relief from a Court if such relief is reasonably required.
14.5 No rule of contract interpretation may be applied in the interpretation of these Terms to the disadvantage of a party on the basis that it prepared or put forward these Terms or any document forming part of these Terms.

15.1 You may close your Account at any time either by using our Website or by letting us know in writing, via email or post using the contact details on the Website. We will refund the balance of your Account by a Payment Method determined by us (pending any outstanding investigations or enquires made in accordance with these Terms). If you have placed any Bets in relation to events which have not yet taken place at the time of closing your Account such Bets will still stand, and if such Bets subsequently win, the corresponding sums will be paid to you within a reasonable time of the outcome of the Bet becoming known.
15.2 We reserve the right to deem an Account that has not been transacted on for at least three (3) months to be inactive (Inactive Account).
15.3 A monthly charge of AU$20 may be applied by us to the holder of an Inactive Account. To avoid the monthly charge, you may withdraw funds, make a deposit, place a Bet or close your Account. If this occurs your Account will no longer be deemed to be an Inactive Account. An Inactive Account that has a zero balance will not be charged the monthly fee.
15.4 Where an Account is an Inactive Account and has a zero-dollar balance we reserve our right to close the Account.
16 INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN THESE RULES AND RULES SPECIFIC TO AN EVENT
16.1 If any inconsistency exists between the Terms and those that apply to a specific event these General Terms will prevail.
17 FORCE MAJEURE AND UNEXPECTED EVENTS
17.1 If an event(s) occurs that is beyond our reasonable control such as a pandemic, epidemic, fire, earthquake, flood, element of nature, act of God, terrorist act, act of war, riot, rebellion, strike, blockade, labour disruption or otherwise, that has a material impact on a sporting, racing, or other event (or series of events, games or matches etc.) which is the subject of a contingency, or outcome of a market offered by us, we reserve the right at our sole discretion (and acting in good faith) to void, cancel, restrict or otherwise alter or adjust the payout (in whole or part) of the affected wager(s) placed on the relevant market. This includes retrospectively taking any of the actions listed above once a Bet has been made and before or after it has resulted.
17.2 A material impact on any event, sporting event, racing event or otherwise, without limitation includes:
(a) a reduction in the number of games, matches or race events in a season or series;
(b) any material change in the length of a game, match or event, or when those games matches or events are played; and/or

18 MATERIAL CHANGES TO EVENTS BY SPORTING BODIES OR CODES
18.1 Where a relevant racing or sporting body announces or declares any material change to the structure of a competition, game, event or otherwise (including, but in no way limited to player numbers in a match in a series or event, the time, location or date of events), and we consider reasonably that such a change will have a material impact on a market or Bet taken on or involving that competition, event or otherwise, all Bets may be voided by us at our sole and reasonable discretion.
18.2 Such action will take place as soon as reasonably practicable following such announcement or declaration. All Bets, including parlay or multi Bets that rely on more than one event, competition or otherwise, which are cancelled will be recalculated in a manner solely decided at our discretion.
19 SOCIAL NETWORKING AND COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

When a Client has bet on a Tote based product, Place wagers will pay down to however many placing's the major Australian TAB's determine as appropriate for that bet type. Major Australian TAB's shall be defined as the Victorian TAB (STAB), the NSW TAB, the Queensland TAB (UBET).
11.6. Where there are less than five (5) runners in a race, all wagers shall be on a "Win Only". If late scratching of a runner or runners reduces the field below five (5) runners, all non-tote place bets will be refunded if there is no possibility for a collect.
11.7. If a runner is scratched, all bets placed after the declaration of the final field, will be refunded on that runner (providing the bet wasn't placed prior to the barrier draw on an "All-In" basis). All other runners will be subject to a deduction, applicable to the face value of winning bets where the bet was placed at a fixed price, for either: Win, Each Way, or Place Only. In the event of a horse being withdrawn late by order of the stewards, all wagers will be paid as stewards direct, including deductions on remaining runners.
11.8. In the case of fixed price racing bets, if the time of bet placement is after the official time for the declaration of final acceptances for an event, bets placed after the time for final acceptances but before Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet makes any adjustment to the prices it has set for the event following a withdrawal shall stand subject to Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet's scale of deductions as applying to the prices offered by Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet for that contestant at the time of its scratching.
11.9. In the event of a field reducing in size from 8 runners to 7 or less runners, for wagers placed via the Internet, Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet will pay three dividends on all fixed odds place bets struck prior to the field being reduced.

Best Tote
This product is the "Best of the 3 Australian TAB Win Tote Prices". For any Place Only or Each Way bet, all bets on Australian Racing codes are paid at Middle Tote, the middle dividend as declared by the 3 Australian TAB's. Where the range between the lowest paying tote to the highest paying tote is greater than 20%, Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet reserves the right to disregard the best tote price and pay the dividend based on the lowest paying tote plus 5%.
Exotics
For all Racing Exotics, (Quinella, Exacta, Trifecta, First Four and Quadrella) are paid at the dividend declared by the Victorian TAB (STAB).
All exotic payouts are capped to a maximum of the pool total held by the Victorian TAB (STAB). We reserve the right to apply a payout limit across all Racing Exotics, in all codes.

Starting Price (SP)
Starting Price (SP) is the official final bookmaker's price when the race jumps. For all International Thoroughbred & Harness Racing, excluding French Racing, the final fixed price offered by Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet will be deemed as the Starting Price "SP". For all French Thoroughbred and Harness Racing where a Fixed Price is not offered by Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet, the official Starting Price "SP" will be as declared by the PMU (as per http://www.horseraces.pmu.fr).

a) $26 for Greyhound Racing.
b) $51 for Harness Racing; and
c) $101 for Thoroughbred Racing.
11.15. Where these Rules state that a dividend is to be paid as declared by a particular Tote, and that Tote fails to declare a dividend within ten (10) minutes of the other Australian Totes declaring a dividend, Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet will pay the dividend which is the lower of the dividends that were declared by the other Australian Totes.
11.16. Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet may cancel wagers where there are signs of pool manipulation which can include but is not limited to increase in pool size, dividends outside normal dividend combination parameters taking into consideration fixed odds of participants / runners.
11.17. Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet may place a limit on the payout (final odds) where there is reasonable suspicion of pool manipulation having occurred (e.g. Payout at the fixed odds SP place dividend or payout no greater than 100% higher than the next best Australian tote), subject to adjudication by the Racing Victoria or the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation.
11.18. If a tote pool goes down either on-line or via the telephone and the pools are distorted, then Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet reserves the right to omit these dividends when paying out. I.e. If the NSW Tote pool is down, the higher of QLD and VIC will be paid for Best Tote Products. For middle tote products, the dividend will be deemed to be the lower of the two declared dividends.
11.19. In the event that one of the Major Australian TAB's for promotional reasons or otherwise, returns elevated dividends due to them foregoing their normal take-out margin, Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet reserves the right to declare its Best Tote dividends at the higher of the other two Australian Totes. Only "Win Only and Each Way" single wagers will be eligible (Multi Bets are ineligible) and Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet management decision on the matter will be absolute and final.
11.20. If a meeting is abandoned or postponed to another date, single bets are void and wagers will be refunded. Affected Multi Bets will be recalculated excluding that leg.
11.21. Where a race meeting is transferred from one racecourse to another, all betting rules and limits will apply as if the meeting was not transferred.

11.24. Dead Heat Rule – In the event of a Dead Heat or Draw, where such an option was not offered for betting purposes, the ticket will be paid out at face value divided by the number of Dead Heating winners of the event. If the bet was placed at the tote product, Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet pays on the re-framed Tote dividends.
11.25. The Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet products and wager types are intended for Bona Fide Clients, that is, those clients who always act in good faith, sincerely, without fraud and who place wagers with Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet for the purpose of recreation and entertainment.
11.26. If no bet type is specified, the default bet type will be a Win Only Bet at the applicable Tote Based product.
11.27. At the discretion of Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet management, Tote pools under $1000 may be disregarded in the calculation of Best Tote and Middle Tote dividends.
11.28. Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet reserves the right to restrict the maximum dividend paid out for Win and Place bets to $101.

12.2. Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet Racing exotics are paid on winning combinations at the dividends declared by the Victorian TAB (STAB), excluding Metropolitan Thoroughbred Racing. Metropolitan Thoroughbred races are paid at the declared Middle Tote dividend of the 3 Australian TABs.
12.3. In the event of a jackpot, the Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet dividend is calculated by taking the Victorian TAB (STAB) Jackpot and dividing it by the number of $1.00 winning units. Where the total of winning units held by Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet is less than one, the flex % held is multiplied over the jackpot amount to determine the dividend.
12.4. In the unlikely event that the location where the wager is struck is not covered by the Victorian TAB, the dividend will be paid at the lower dividend displayed by the other two major Australian TAB's.
12.5. Notwithstanding maximum win limits detailed in section 8, Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet reserves the right to limit total payout to any individual(s) on any bet type. If the total Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet payout on any bet type exceeds the Victorian TAB tote pool, Beirne Racing Pty Ltdbet reserves the right to limit the total payout to clients to the amount of the Victorian TAB pool on that bet type.
12.6. In the event of a Dead Heat for any of the place getters, there will be as many dividends as there are correct order combinations as declared by the Victorian TAB (STAB).

Flexi Betting allows you to take a Quinella, Exacta, Trifecta, First Four or Quadrella at an outlay to suit Your own budget. This way you can have multiple selections for a smaller outlay. Simply make Your selections and nominate the total amount you wish to spend on Your bet. Your bet will cost whatever you choose – and if you win you will receive a percentage of the full $1 STAB dividend. For example, let's say you wish to box five runners in a Trifecta. This bet would normally cost $60 for a $1 unit. If you decide you want to spend $15, that's all it will cost. $15 represents 25% of a full $1 unit (total cost of $60), meaning if successful, you will receive 25% of the full $1 STAB Trifecta dividend. Thus, if the winning Trifecta dividend is $200 for $1, you will collect $50. The minimum wager for Flexi Betting is $1.

BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES - AFL
The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder AFL bets will be settled.
A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet.
1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS
All AFL SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. If one or more selections in any bet are resulted as void for any reason (such as a selected player not participating in the match – see section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void.
For instance, selections on a team to win a match where the game finishes in a draw, whether the final result has been determined with or without extra time, and even where the draw or tie may not have been offered through BetBuilder, will be settled as losers. Similarly, ‘Race to X’ selections where neither team reaches the selected score will be settled as losers, regardless of whether a ‘neither team to reach X’ selection was available as an alternate selection or not. If a quarter or half finishes scoreless, then goal or point-scoring selections such as First or Last Goalscorer for that period will be settled as losers.
2. EXTRA TIME
All AFL matches will be settled on the official declared result including any extra time.
3. SECOND HALF / FOURTH QUARTER MARKETS
All second half and fourth quarter market selections do include extra time if it occurs. For example, a total second half points selection would include the points scored in both the second half and extra time.
4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS
All player selections will be considered active if a player takes to the field of play as an active player at any point of the relevant match, regardless of whether the selection in question references a specific period of the match. If a player never enters the field of play during a match, selections specific to that player will be void. For instance, a selection on a certain player to kick a goal in the second half would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player played the first two minutes of a match, was injured, and did not return to the game, regardless of having never been on the field during the second half. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game
commenced, was withdrawn from the starting lineup (or interchange/emergencies) and never took the field, the selection and therefore bet would be void.
5. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES
Where a match is postponed or incomplete, and subsequently resumed or played within 24 hours (inclusive) of the original scheduled start time, all bets will stand. All bets placed on games played which commence more than 24 hours past the originally scheduled start time will be void. Once the 24 hours have expired, all bets are void and stakes will be refunded.
6. ABANDONED MATCHES
If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the 24-hour rule for postponed matches as described above. If it is abandoned after commencing but before its natural end point, the following rules apply:
1. SGMs will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who has not yet entered the field of play. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule.
2. If every selection within an SGM on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the SGM in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg SGM containing an over total points selection and a certain player to kick a goal, in a game where the required points have been reached and the player did kick a goal before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total points selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome.
3. If a single selection of an SGM has lost and a match is then abandoned, the SGM will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, an SGM including a first goal-scorer selection, in a game where a different player kicked the first goal and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not.
4. If there are no losing selections within an SGM and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the SGM will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, an SGM including an over total points selection, in a game abandoned while the total points are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total points selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided.
7. VENUE CHANGES
If the venue of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided.
BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES - BASEBALL The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder baseball bets will be settled. A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet. 1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS All baseball SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. For instance, selections on a team to win a match where the game finishes in a tie or draw, whether the final result has been determined with or without extra innings, and even where the draw or tie may not have been offered through BetBuilder, will be settled as losers. This will not be relevant to MLB as extra innings are played until a team wins, but may be applicable to other baseball leagues or competitions as per their individual competition rules. Similarly, ‘Race to X’ selections where neither team reaches the selected score will be settled as losers, regardless of whether a ‘neither team to reach X’ selection was available as an alternate selection or not. If one or more selections in any bet are resulted as void due to the player(s) in question not participating in a game (as per section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void. Selections voided for other reasons (typically game abandonment or postponements) will be resulted according to the rules outlined in sections 7 and 8 of this document. 2. EXTRA INNINGS All baseball matches will be settled on the official declared result including any extra innings. All team and player statistics accrued during extra innings are included for the purposes of bet settlement. 1 BetBuilder Wagering Rules – Baseball 3. LISTED / DESIGNATED / NAMED PITCHERS BetBuilder baseball bets do not include and are not reliant on listed/designated/named pitchers. If either or both originally announced starting pitchers in a game are scratched or replaced by other pitchers, prior to the match commencing and after any bets have been placed, those bets will stand. Where pitchers may have been listed in or relative to the display of any selections, these will be treated as indicative only, and will not affect or prevent the application of this rule. Selections specifically involving a pitcher who does not play (and therefore bets including those selections) will still be voided as per the rules for player-specific markets in section 4. 4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS If a player does not participate in a match, selections specific to that player (and therefore the entire bet) will be void. This rule is applied as follows: 1. Selections on hitting / batting markets will be active if the player in question gets at least one plate appearance. If the player does not appear at the plate, these selections will be treated as void. 2. Selections on base stealing markets will be active if the player in question enters the game at any point. This includes making a plate appearance but also playing as a fielder, defensive substitute, pinch-runner, and so on. If the player does not enter the game in any such capacity at any point, these selections will be treated as void. 3. Selections on pitching markets will be active if the player in question throws at least one pitch in the game. If the player does not do so, these selections will be treated as void. Player selections will be considered active or void per the rules above, regardless of whether a selection may reference a specific period of a match. For instance, a selection on a certain player to get 1+ hits in the first 5 innings of a match would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player only entered the game as a substitute after the 5th inning, and made his plate appearance(s) from that point. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game commenced, was withdrawn from the starting lineup (or bench) and thus did not make any plate appearances, the selection and therefore bet would be void. 5. 7 INNINGS GAMES / DOUBLE HEADERS Where baseball games have been originally scheduled prior to commencement to be played for fewer than 9 innings (e.g. 7 innings games for MLB double headers), matches will be settled as normal in accordance with the rules outlined in this document (i.e. treated as regular rather than reduced-innings matches). 6. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES If a game does not commence on the scheduled calendar day of the officially listed start time (local stadium time), all bets on the match will be void. If a game is suspended after it has commenced, and is then resumed within 36 hours (inclusive) of the original start time, all bets will stand. If a game is suspended after it has commenced, and is resumed more than 36 hours after the original start time or not at all, it will be treated as an abandoned game and settled under the rules in sections 7 and 8 (all bets will be void apart from those which have already been irrevocably determined). This rule does not apply to playoff games; in the case of a suspended playoff or postseason tournament game, all bets will stand through any case of suspension, until the game is officially completed as per the relevant league/organisation. 7. REDUCED-INNINGS MATCHES Where baseball games are shortened after the match has commenced (e.g. innings reduced due to bad weather), they will be settled according to the following rules: 1. Bets will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who does not participate in the game, as per the rules outlined in section 4. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule. 2. If every selection within a bet on the game is already a winner where the fact of reduced innings had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the bet in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg bet containing an over total runs selection and a certain player to hit a home run, in a game where the required runs total had been reached and the player did hit a home run, and where the match was played with reduced innings, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the game being played with reduced innings had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total runs selection where a game is shortened while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the reduced innings would impact that outcome. 3. If a single selection of a bet has lost and a match is then shortened, the bet will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of reduced innings, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, a bet including a first team to score selection, in a game where the other team scored first and the match was subsequently then played with reduced innings, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently shortened or not. 4. If there are no losing selections within a bet and at least one void selection on a match where innings are reduced after commencement, the bet will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are effectively undecided after the reduced number of innings have been completed, and may still have won or lost if the full amount of innings had been completed as scheduled. For example, a bet including an over total runs selection, in a shortened game concluded while the total runs are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total runs selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the shortening of the match, so the selection and therefore bet will be voided. 5. The only exception to the rules above is the Match Winner / Money Line / Head-toHead market result. This will be settled according to the official league result of the match – if a game with reduced innings still ends in an official win/loss result per the relevant league, the Match Winner market will be settled as such. Matches concluded after 8.5 innings (where the home team is ahead after 8.5 innings and the match is ended there) are not treated as shortened matches. They will be settled as per normal settlement rules and not by the rules presented in this section for matches with reduced innings. This also applies to games scheduled to be 7 innings which finish after 6.5 innings with the home team ahead. 8. ABANDONED MATCHES If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the scheduled calendar day rule for postponed matches as described in section 6. If a game is abandoned after commencing, but still ends with an official win/loss result per the relevant league/organisation, it will be settled under the rules in section 7 for reduced innings matches. This will include the settling of that official result under subsection 7.5. If a game is abandoned after commencing and is not designated with an official win/loss result by the relevant league/organisation, it will be settled as per the rules in section 7 for reduced innings matches, but the Match Winner / Money Line / Head-to-Head market result will be settled as void. 9. VENUE CHANGES If the venue of a match is changed from the one originally scheduled, bets will stand if the original home and away teams remain designated as such. If the venue is changed and the home and away team designations are reversed, bets placed under the original home/away listing will be void.
BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES - BASKETBALL The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder basketball bets will be settled. A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet. 1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS All basketball SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. If one or more selections in any bet are resulted as void for any reason (such as a selected player not participating in the match – see section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void. For instance, selections on a team to win a match where it is a draw after overtime (or normal time if no overtime is to be played), even where the draw or tie may not have been offered through BetBuilder, will be settled as losers. This will not be relevant to NBA or NBL matches as they play repeated overtime periods until a team wins, but may be applicable to other basketball leagues or competitions as per their individual competition rules. Similarly, ‘Race to X’ selections where neither team reaches the selected score will be settled as losers, regardless of whether a ‘neither team to reach X’ selection was available as an alternate selection or not. 2. OVERTIME All basketball matches will be settled on the official declared result including any overtime. 3. SECOND HALF / FOURTH QUARTER MARKETS All second half and fourth quarter market selections do include overtime periods if they occur. For example, a total second half points selection would include the points scored in both the second half and any overtime periods played. 4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS All player selections will be considered active if a player enters the court as an active player at any point of the relevant match, regardless of whether the selection in question references a specific period of the match. If a player never enters the court during a match, selections specific to that player will be void. For instance, a selection on a certain player to score 10.5+ points in the second half would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player played the first two minutes of a match, was injured, and did not return to the game, regardless of having never been on the court during the second half. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game commenced, was withdrawn from the starting lineup (or bench) and never took to the court, the selection and therefore bet would be void. 5. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES Where a match is postponed or incomplete, and subsequently resumed or played within 24 hours (inclusive) of the original scheduled start time, all bets will stand. All bets placed on games played which commence more than 24 hours past the originally scheduled start time will be void. Once the 24 hours have expired, all bets are void and stakes will be refunded. 6. ABANDONED MATCHES If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the 24-hour rule for postponed matches as described above. If it is abandoned after commencing but before its natural end point, the following rules apply: 1. SGMs will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who has not yet entered the court as an active player. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule. 2. If every selection within an SGM on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the SGM in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg SGM containing an over total points selection and a certain player to score 10.5+ points, in a game where the required points have been reached and the player did score more than 10 points before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total points selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome. 3. If a single selection of an SGM has lost and a match is then abandoned, the SGM will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, an SGM including a first player to score selection, in a game where a different player scored first and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not. 4. If there are no losing selections within an SGM and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the SGM will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, an SGM including an over total points selection, in a game abandoned while the total points are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total points selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided. 7. VENUE CHANGES If the venue of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided.
BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES – FOOTBALL (SOCCER) The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder football (soccer) bets will be settled. A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet. 1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS All football SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. If one or more selections in any bet are resulted as void for any reason (such as a selected player not participating in the match – see section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void. For instance, a ‘Team A to win in extra time’ selection in a match that did not advance to extra time would be settled as a loser, as would a ‘Team to get most corners’ selection where both teams record the same number of corners. If a half, full match or relevant period of a match finishes scoreless, then goal-scoring selections such as ‘First player to score’ for that period will be settled as losers. 2. EXTRA TIME / PENALTIES BetBuilder bets placed on football apply exclusively to the 90 minutes of regulation time plus injury time, unless it is explicitly stated the bet applies to extra time and/or penalties. Where such wording does exist, it will be applied on a selection-by-selection basis; that is, the remaining selections of the bet will be settled on the regulation plus injury time result. In the absence of such wording, bets will be settled on the match result after the 90 minutes of regulation time plus injury time. As such, a match tied after regulation and injury time, where one team goes on to win in either extra time or penalties, will be settled with the match result of a draw. Match officials determine whether the full 90 minutes and injury time is to be played or has been played. 3. DETERMINATION OF RESULTS / MATCH EVENTS All markets will be settled on the result and events of a match as per the most authoritative immediately available sources. Resettling of markets may be undertaken at Sportcast’s discretion where those sources contained errors that were later amended, but substantive retrospective changes to match results, such as dubious goals panels or results being reversed or overturned due to ineligible players, will not alter settlement of BetBuilder markets. 1 BetBuilder Wagering Rules – Football (Soccer) 4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS If a player never enters the field of play during a match as an active player (i.e. a member of the starting eleven, or a substitute brought onto the pitch), selections specific to that player, and therefore the entire bet as per section 1, will be void. This rule refers to any player-related markets involving goals, cards, or any other individual statistics, and is supplemented by the period-related player selection rules in section 5. 5. BET PERIOD RULES The periods below (1 – 6) are sections of matches that can be selected in conjunction with the markets listed in section 9. They are settled as per the following parameters: 1. 90 mins – This refers to the 90 regulation minutes of a match, plus injury time. Match officials determine whether the full 90 minutes and injury time is to be played or has been played. Any event occurring before the official start of the match, during the half time break (any time after the whistle for half time and before the start of the second half) or after the final whistle do not count. 2. 1st 10 mins - This refers to the first 10 minutes of the match (00:00 to 09:59). Corners, penalties or free kicks awarded in this period but not taken until after 10:00 will not count. Any event that occurs after 10:00 or later within the match will not count. Any event occurring before the official start of the match does not count. 3. 1st half - This refers to the first half of the match only, including any injury time minutes played within it. Any event occurring before the official start of the match or during the half time break (any time after the whistle for half time) will not count. 4. 2nd half - This refers to the second half of the match only, including any injury time minutes played within it. Any event occurring before the second half (first half or during the half time break) or after the final whistle will not count. 5. Each half - This refers to an event happening in both halves of the match. If the chosen event happens in neither half, or within only one half of the match, this will be deemed a losing selection. Any event occurring before the official start of the match or during the half time break (any time after the whistle for half time and before the start of the second half) or after the final whistle will not count. a. ‘Each half’ player-related selections will stand if the player participates in any part of the first half of the match. If the player does not participate in the first half, then ‘each half’ player selections will be voided. 6. Either half - This refers to an event happening in one or both halves of the match. If the chosen event does not happen within the match this will be deemed a losing selection. Any event occurring before the official start of the match, during the half time break (any time after the whistle for half time and before the start of the second half) or after the final whistle will not count. a. ‘Either half’ player-related selections will stand if the player participates in the match at any point. For example, a selection on a player to score in either half will be settled as a winner if they score in the first half, but are substituted at half time or earlier, and do not participate in the second half at all. Either half selections on a player who does not participate in the match at all will be voided. 6. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES Where a match is postponed or incomplete, and subsequently resumed or played within 48 hours (inclusive) of the originally scheduled start time, all bets will stand. All bets placed on games played which commence more than 48 hours past the originally scheduled start time will be void. Once the 48 hours have expired, all bets are void and stakes will be refunded. Matches which have had their start time altered well in advance of their scheduled commencement (e.g. to accommodate live TV or tournament requirements, or to ease fixture congestion) may not be classified at postponed, at Sportcast’s discretion. Sportcast will inform all clients in a timely fashion of all instances in which such discretion has been applied. 7. ABANDONED MATCHES Matches will be deemed as abandoned if they commence, but then do not reach their natural conclusion within 48 hours of the originally scheduled start time. Per section 6, matches where a referee removes the players from the field of play for a period of time, but the remaining minutes of play take place within 48 hours of the original start time, will not be regarded as abandoned. If a match is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the 48-hour rule for postponed matches as described in section 6. If it is abandoned after commencing but before its natural end point, the following rules apply: 1. SGMs will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who has not yet participated in the match as an active player. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule. 2. If every selection within an SGM on the match is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the SGM in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg SGM containing an over total goals selection and a certain player to score, in a game where the required goals total had been reached and the player did score before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total goals selection where a match is abandoned while the total goals are still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome. 3. If a single selection of an SGM has lost and a match is then abandoned, the SGM will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, an SGM including a first team to score selection, in a game where the other team scored first and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not. 4. If there are no losing selections within an SGM and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the SGM will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, an SGM including an over total goals selection, in a game abandoned while the total goals are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total goals selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided. 8. VENUE CHANGES AND NEUTRAL VENUES If the venue of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided. For matches played at a neutral venue, all bets will stand regardless of the order in which the teams are listed, and of whether or not the game is or had been explicitly listed as being played at a neutral venue. 9. SPECIFIC MARKET RULINGS 1. Who will win? – You are betting on the result, i.e. Team A, Draw or Team B. 2. Who will score? – You are betting on whether a nominated player will score a goal. Own goals do not count towards this market. 3. Who will get carded? – You are betting on whether the nominated player will receive a yellow or red card. Only cards shown to players currently on the pitch within the match will count. Cards shown to managers, players on the bench or after the match do not count. 4. How many match/team corners? – You are betting on whether the total number of corners will be above or below the numbers quoted. Only corners that are taken will count. Corners that are indicated as given but subsequently not taken will not count. If a corner is retaken, it will only count as one corner. Corners in extra time do not count towards the total. 5. How many team goals? – You are betting on how many goals a nominated team will score. Own goals committed by the opposing team are included in the settling of this market. 6. How many match/team booking points? - You are betting on whether the total number of booking points is above or below the stated total. Cards issued in extra time do not count towards the total, nor do booking points received before kick-off and/or after the final whistle. Only cards shown to players currently on the pitch will count. Cards shown to managers or substitutes do not count towards the total. a. Yellow card = 10 & red card = 25 booking points respectively. If a player receives 2 yellow cards and is consequently shown a red card, the player receives a total of 35 booking points. 7. How many match/team cards? – You are betting on whether the total number of cards is above, below or equal to the stated total. Extra time does not count towards the total nor do booking points received before kick-off and/or after the final whistle. Only cards shown to players currently on the pitch will count. Cards shown to managers or substitutes do not count towards the total. a. Yellow card = 1 & red card = 2 respectively for the purposes of this market. If a player receives 2 yellow cards and is consequently shown a red card, the player receives a total of 3 cards. No player can receive more than 3 cards for settlement purposes. A player receiving a yellow card then a straight red card receives 3 cards for settlement purposes. A straight red on its own counts as 2 cards for settlement purposes. 8. What else will happen/What else will happen to a team? – You are betting on whether a nominated event will occur either in the match or to a selected team respectively, such as: a. Penalty awarded – Whether a penalty will be taken (and subsequently missed/scored). Penalties awarded but rescinded, for any reason, and subsequently are not taken will not be deemed a winning selection. b. Penalty missed – Whether a penalty will be missed. This is any penalty taken that does not result in a goal from that kick directly. If a penalty is ordered to be retaken, the original penalty will not count towards any official settlement. Only a completed penalty outcome is applicable. If a penalty rebounds from either the woodwork or the goalkeeper and is touched again before a goal is awarded, this will be deemed as a miss. c. Penalty scored – Whether a penalty will be scored. This is any penalty taken that results in a goal directly from this kick. If a penalty rebounds from either the woodwork or the goalkeeper and is touched again before a goal is awarded, this will be deemed as a miss. Penalties awarded but rescinded and subsequently not taken will not be deemed a winning selection. d. 2+ penalties awarded – Whether two, or more, penalties will be taken (and subsequently missed/scored). Penalties awarded but rescinded and subsequently not taken will not be deemed as a penalty awarded. e. 2+ penalties scored – Whether two, or more, penalties will be scored. Penalties scored but ordered to be retaken, the original penalty will not count. f. Free kick goal – Whether a free kick will be scored. Any bets involving free kick goals must be scored directly from a free kick. Penalties do not count. The player taking the free kick must be the scorer of the goal. g. Header goal – Whether a header will be scored over the course of the match. A headed goal is a goal that is classed as coming off the player’s head or shoulder, whether it is intentional or not. Own goals are excluded. h. Outside box goal – Whether a goal will be scored from outside of the 18-yard box/penalty area. Own goals are excluded. Any other method of goal scored from outside of the penalty area will count, including free kicks. i. Own goal – Whether an own goal will be scored. j. Sending off – Whether a player is sent off. Only cards awarded once the player is active in the match will count. Any cards shown after the final whistle do not count. A player to be sent off is settled as a winner for any active player that receives a red card, whether that is a straight red card or because of two yellow cards. If the red card is retracted, by VAR or otherwise, then this will not count as a winning selection. k. Woodwork – Whether the frame of the goal is hit during active play. Instances where the ball hits the woodwork which result directly in a goal do not count as woodwork being hit. l. Go to extra time – Whether the match will go to extra time after the 90 minutes, in applicable matches where extra time can be played. m. Go to penalties – Whether the match will go to penalties/a penalty shootout, in applicable matches where penalties can be played. n. Team clean sheet – Whether your nominated team will keep a clean sheet. For example, 0-0, 1-0 to your team, 2-0 to your team etc, would be winning outcomes. o. First/last team to score – Which team will score the first or last goal. Rescinded and/or disallowed goals do not count. If no goals are scored in the match, these markets will be resulted as losers. p. First/last corners – Which teams will be awarded and subsequently take the first/last corner in the match. If no corners are awarded in the specified period, these markets will be resulted as losers. q. Most corners – Which team will take the most corners in the match. If the corner count is tied at the end of the match, this selection will be resulted as a loser. r. First/last cards – Which team will be awarded the last card, yellow or red, in the match. If no cards are awarded in the specified period, these markets will be resulted as losers. s. Most booking points/most cards – Which team will receive the most booking points or cards in the match. If no cards are awarded in a match, or the booking point/card counts are tied at the end of a match, these markets will be settled as losers. t. Team woodwork – Whether the frame of the goal is hit by that team during active play. A team woodwork will still count if it is the defending team hitting their own woodwork with the ball. Instances where the ball hits the woodwork which result directly in a goal do not count as woodwork being hit. 9. Which player will score first/last? – You are betting on which player will score the first/last goal within the match. Own goals do not count. For example, if you have selected a player to score the first goal in the match and the first goal was an own goal, then the bet will be settled on the next goal that is scored. In this same scenario the scorer of the first goal that is not an own goal will be settled as the first goal scorer. In relation to ‘Which player will score first’, if your player has not participated in the match at the point the first goal is scored, selections will be made void. In relation to ‘Which player will score last’, If your player has participated in the match before or during the time the last goal is scored, related selections will stand. If no goals or only own goals have been scored in a match, first and last goal scorer markets will be settled as losers, if the selected player(s) participated in the relevant periods of the match as described above. 10. How many player goals? – You are betting on whether the nominated player will score 1+/2+ or 3+ goals in the match. Own goals are excluded. 11. How will a player score? – You are betting on the method by which the nominated player will score, with the following options available (own goals are excluded for all): a. Header – the nominated player scores a goal that is classed as coming off the player’s head or shoulder, whether it is intentional or not. b. Free kick - the nominated player scores a direct free kick for their own team. c. Outside of the box – the nominated player scores from outside of the 18-yard box/penalty area for their own team. A free kick scored from outside of the box counts as a winning selection. d. Penalty – the nominated player scores a penalty for their own team. The goal must be scored directly from this penalty. A rebound from a penalty will not be classified as a goal scored by penalty. 12. Who will get carded or sent off? – You are betting on (for the carded element) whether a nominated player will receive a yellow or red card. For the sent off element, you are betting on whether a nominated player will receive a red card. Only cards awarded once the player is active in the match will count. Cards shown to players or officials who do not constitute active on-field players do not count. Any cards shown before kick-off, after the final whistle or during the half time period do not count. A player to be sent off is settled on any active player that receives a red card, whether that is a straight red card or two yellow cards and is therefore subsequently shown a red card. 13. What is the double chance? – You are betting on the match (or specified period) ending in one of the two displayed outcomes. For example, Team A/Draw would require the match (or specified period) to end with either Team A winning or a draw in order to be a winning selection. 14. Who will be ahead at half time / full time? – You are betting on the result of the match at half time and at full-time. Both need to be correct in order for this to be a winning selection. 15. How will a team win? – You are betting on different markets relating to how a team will win, including: a. Winning margin – By what margin the nominated team will win by. b. Win to nil – Whether the nominated team wins to nil. For example, your nominated team winning 1-0, 2-0 etc would result in this being a winning selection. c. Win from behind – Whether the nominated team wins the match (or specified period) after having been behind by at least one goal at any point within that period. d. Win in extra time – Whether your nominated team wins the match in extra time. Your team must win the extra time period (2 x 15 minutes plus injury time, unless otherwise stated). If the match does not go to extra time, this market will be settled as a loser. e. Win on penalties – Whether your nominated team wins the match after penalties/a penalty shootout. If the match does not go to penalties, this market will be settled as a loser. f. Qualify – Whether your nominated team qualifies to the next round of fixtures in the specified tournament/cup/league.
BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES – ICE HOCKEY The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder ice hockey bets will be settled. A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet. 1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS All ice hockey SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. If one or more selections in any bet are resulted as void for any reason (such as a selected player not participating in the match – see section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void. For instance, selections on a team to win a match where it is a draw after overtime (or normal time if no overtime is to be played), even where the draw or tie may not have been offered through BetBuilder, will be settled as losers. This will not be relevant to NHL matches as they advance to shootouts after a tied overtime period (regular season) or play open-ended sudden death overtime (playoffs), but may be applicable to other ice hockey leagues or competitions as per their individual competition rules. Similarly, ‘Race to X’ selections where neither team reaches the selected score will be settled as losers, regardless of whether a ‘neither team to reach X’ selection was available as an alternate selection or not. If a period finishes scoreless, then goalscoring selections such as First or Last Goalscorer for that period will be settled as losers. 2. OVERTIME / SHOOTOUTS All ice hockey matches will be settled on the official declared result including any overtime and shootouts. Goals scored in shootouts are disregarded for settlement purposes. The goal assigned to the score of a winning team after a shootout (e.g. the only goal in a game that finishes 0-0 after overtime and therefore 1-0 after the shootout) counts for the purposes of total game score and total team goal selections, but is not assigned to a player and does not count towards the settlement of any player scoring markets. 3. THIRD PERIOD MARKETS All third period market selections do include overtime and the resultant goal from shootouts if they occur. For example, a total third period goals selection would include the goals scored in both the third period and the winning goal from either overtime or resulting from the shootout. 4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS All player selections will be considered active if a player takes to the rink as an active player at any point of the relevant match, regardless of whether the selection in question references a specific period of the match. If a player never enters the rink during a match, selections specific to that player will be void. For instance, a selection on a certain player to score in the third period would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player played the first two minutes of a match, was injured, and did not return to the game, regardless of having never been on the ice during the third period. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game commenced, was withdrawn from the starting lineup (or bench) and never took the ice, the selection and therefore bet would be void. 5. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES Where a match is postponed or incomplete, and subsequently resumed or played within 24 hours (inclusive) of the original scheduled start time, all bets will stand. All bets placed on games played which commence more than 24 hours past the originally scheduled start time will be void. Once the 24 hours have expired, all bets are void and stakes will be refunded. 6. ABANDONED MATCHES If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the 24-hour rule for postponed matches as described above. If it is abandoned after commencing but before its natural end point, the following rules apply: 1. SGMs will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who has not yet entered the rink as an active player. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule. 2. If every selection within an SGM on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the SGM in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg SGM containing an over total goals selection and a certain player to score, in a game where the required goals have been reached and the player did score before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total goals selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome. 3. If a single selection of an SGM has lost and a match is then abandoned, the SGM will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, an SGM including a first team to score selection, in a game where the other team scored first and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not. 2 BetBuilder Wagering Rules – Ice Hockey 4. If there are no losing selections within an SGM and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the SGM will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, an SGM including an over total goals selection, in a game abandoned while the total goals are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total goals selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided. 7. VENUE CHANGES If the venue of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided.
BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES - NCAAF The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder NCAAF bets will be settled. A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet. 1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS All NCAAF SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. For instance, ‘Race to X’ selections where neither team reaches the selected score will be settled as losers, regardless of whether a ‘neither team to reach X’ selection was available as an alternate selection or not. If a quarter, half or match finishes scoreless, then touchdown or point-scoring selections for that period (e.g. Player to Score a 1st Half Touchdown) will be settled as losers. If one more selections in any bet are resulted as void due to the player(s) in question not participating in a game (as per section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void. Selections voided for other reasons (typically game abandonment or postponement) will be resulted according to the rules outlined in section 6 of this document. 2. OVERTIME All NCAAF matches will be settled on the official declared result including any overtime. 3. SECOND HALF / FOURTH QUARTER MARKETS All second half and fourth quarter market selections do include overtime if it occurs. For example, a total second half points selection would include the points scored in both the second half and overtime. 4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS All player selections will be considered active if a player participates in at least one play at any point of the relevant match, regardless of whether the selection in question references a specific period of the match. If a player does not participate in a single play during a match, selections specific to that player will be void. For instance, a selection on a certain player to score a touchdown in the second half would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player participated in the first play of the match, was injured, and did not return to the game, regardless of having never been on the field during the second half. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game commenced and did not participate in any plays whatsoever, the selection and therefore bet would be void. 5. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES If a match is postponed or incomplete, all bets will stand if the game is subsequently resumed or played within the same scheduling week of the NCAAF schedule as the originally scheduled start time. All bets placed on games which are postponed and commence outside their originally designated scheduling week will be void, and stakes will be refunded. 6. ABANDONED MATCHES If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the same scheduling week rule for postponed matches as described above. If it is halted during play, and then resumed and completed during the same scheduling week, all bets will stand also as per section 5. If a game is halted after commencing but prior to completion, and it is not resumed and completed within the same scheduling week, the following rules apply: 1. SGMs will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who has not yet been on the field for at least one play. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule. 2. If every selection within an SGM on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the SGM in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg SGM containing an over total points selection and a certain player to score a touchdown, in a game where the required points have been reached and the player did score a touchdown before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total points selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome. 2 BetBuilder Wagering Rules – NCAAF 3. If a single selection of an SGM has lost and a match is then abandoned, the SGM will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, an SGM including a first team to score selection, in a game where the other team scored first and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not. 4. If there are no losing selections within an SGM and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the SGM will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, an SGM including an over total points selection, in a game abandoned while the total points are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total points selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided. 7. VENUE CHANGES If the venue of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided.
BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES - NFL The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder NFL bets will be settled. A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet. 1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS All NFL SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. For instance, selections on a team to win a match where it is a tie after overtime, even where the draw or tie may not have been offered through BetBuilder, will be settled as losers. Similarly, ‘Race to X’ selections where neither team reaches the selected score will be settled as losers, regardless of whether a ‘neither team to reach X’ selection was available as an alternate selection or not. If a quarter, half or match finishes scoreless, then touchdown or point-scoring selections for that period (e.g. Player to Score a 1st Half Touchdown) will be settled as losers. If one more selections in any bet are resulted as void due to the player(s) in question not participating in a game (as per section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void. Selections voided for other reasons (typically game abandonment or postponement) will be resulted according to the rules outlined in section 6 of this document. 2. OVERTIME All NFL matches will be settled on the official declared result including any overtime. 3. SECOND HALF / FOURTH QUARTER MARKETS All second half and fourth quarter market selections do include overtime if it occurs. For example, a total second half points selection would include the points scored in both the second half and overtime. 4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS All player selections will be considered active if a player participates in at least one play at any point of the relevant match, regardless of whether the selection in question references a specific period of the match. If a player does not participate in a single play during a match, selections specific to that player will be void. For instance, a selection on a certain player to score a touchdown in the second half would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player participated in the first play of the match, was injured, and did not return to the game, regardless of having never been on the field during the second half. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game commenced and did not participate in any plays whatsoever, the selection and therefore bet would be void. 5. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES If a match is postponed or incomplete, all bets will stand if the game is subsequently resumed or played within the same scheduling week of the NFL schedule (Thursday – Wednesday local stadium time) as the originally scheduled start time. All bets placed on games which are postponed and commence outside their originally designated scheduling week will be void, and stakes will be refunded. 6. ABANDONED MATCHES If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the same scheduling week rule for postponed matches as described above. If it is halted during play, and then resumed and completed during the same scheduling week, all bets will stand also as per section 5. If a game is halted after commencing but prior to completion, and it is not resumed and completed within the same scheduling week, the following rules apply: 1. SGMs will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who has not yet been on the field for at least one play. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule. 2. If every selection within an SGM on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the SGM in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg SGM containing an over total points selection and a certain player to score a touchdown, in a game where the required points have been reached and the player did score a touchdown before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total points selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome. 2 BetBuilder Wagering Rules – NFL 3. If a single selection of an SGM has lost and a match is then abandoned, the SGM will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, an SGM including a first team to score selection, in a game where the other team scored first and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not. 4. If there are no losing selections within an SGM and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the SGM will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, an SGM including an over total points selection, in a game abandoned while the total points are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total points selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided. 7. VENUE CHANGES If the venue of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided.
BETBUILDER WAGERING RULES - RUGBY LEAGUE The following document details the rules under which all singles and same game multi (SGM) BetBuilder rugby league bets will be settled. A BetBuilder SGM bet is the aggregate bet comprised of all constituent selections. Any reference to a ‘bet’ within this document refers to the entire contents of a BetBuilder betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ refers to one selection within the related bet. 1. SELECTION AND BET RESULTS All rugby league SGM selections must win (no ties, draws or pushes) for a bet to be deemed a winner. A selection that does not win, unless explicitly specified within this document, will be settled as a loser. If one or more selections in any bet are resulted as void for any reason (such as a selected player not participating in the match – see section 4), the entire bet will be resulted as void. For instance, selections on a team to win a match where the game finishes in a draw, whether the final result has been determined with or without extra time, and even where the draw or tie may not have been offered through BetBuilder, will be settled as losers. Similarly, ‘Race to X’ selections where neither team reaches the selected score will be settled as losers, regardless of whether a ‘neither team to reach X’ selection was available as an alternate selection or not. If a half or match finishes scoreless, then goal or point-scoring selections such as First or Last Tryscorer for that period will be settled as losers. 2. EXTRA TIME All rugby league matches will be settled on the official declared result including any extra time. 3. SECOND HALF MARKETS All second half market selections do include extra time if it occurs. For example, a total second half points selection would include the points scored in both the second half and extra time. 4. PLAYER-SPECIFIC MARKETS All player selections will be considered active if a player takes to the field of play as an active player at any point of the relevant match, regardless of whether the selection in question references a specific period of the match. If a player never enters the field of play during a match, selections specific to that player will be void. For instance, a selection on a certain player to score in the second half would be active (and therefore settled as a loser) if that player played the first two minutes of a match, was injured, and did not return to the game, regardless of having never been on the field during the second half. However, if that player was injured shortly before the game commenced, was withdrawn from the starting lineup (or substitutes) and never took the field, the selection and therefore bet would be void. 5. POSTPONED AND INCOMPLETE MATCHES Where a match is postponed or incomplete, and subsequently resumed or played within 24 hours (inclusive) of the original scheduled start time, all bets will stand. All bets placed on games played which commence more than 24 hours past the originally scheduled start time will be void. Once the 24 hours have expired, all bets are void and stakes will be refunded. 6. ABANDONED MATCHES If a game is abandoned prior to commencement, it falls within the 24-hour rule for postponed matches as described above. If it is abandoned after commencing but before its natural end point, the following rules apply: 1. SGMs will be void if they include at least one selection involving a player who has not yet entered the field of play. The rules outlined below are all applied subject to and subsequent to the application of this rule. 2. If every selection within an SGM on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, the SGM in its entirety will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg SGM containing an over total points selection and a certain player to score a try, in a game where the required points have been reached and the player did score a try before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total points selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome. 3. If a single selection of an SGM has lost and a match is then abandoned, the SGM will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, an SGM including a first team to score selection, in a game where the other team scored first and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not. 4. If there are no losing selections within an SGM and at least one void selection at the time of a match abandonment, the SGM will be treated as void. This rule applies where one or more selections are still undecided at abandonment, and may have won or lost if the game had been completed as scheduled. For example, an SGM including an over total points selection, in a game abandoned while the total points are still below the required amount, will be treated as void. In this case, the total points selection was still undecided and may have won or lost but for the abandonment, so the bet will be voided. 7. VENUE CHANGES If the venue of a match is changed from the one advertised, all bets on that match will be voided.
