If a match is canceled

Status

What happens

The match is not rescheduled by the end of the next full day

All bets on the event are void, and your stake is automatically refunded.

The match is rescheduled and completed within that time

Your bet will remain valid and settle based on the final result.

If a match is not completed

If a match starts but is abandoned and not completed by the end of the next full day:

  • Bets on markets not yet determined are void and refunded.

  • Bets on markets that have already been settled will still stand based on the official result.

Bet types that are not refunded

Outrights (e.g., "Team to win the tournament", "Player to reach the final") remain valid—unless the entire tournament or competition is canceled or not completed within 24 hours of its scheduled end date.
