  • Content and intellectual property
    • All content, software, odds displays, logos, and trademarks are protected and may not be copied or distributed without written consent.

Betting, Bets, Odds, and Event Settlement Rules

  • Eligibility to place a bet
    • Only verified users who meet age and location requirements may place bets. You must have sufficient cleared funds and an open account in good standing.
  • Bet acceptance and timing
    • A bet is accepted once it appears as “confirmed” in your bet history and a transaction ID is issued. Pre-match betting closes at the scheduled start of the event. In-play betting closes when the market is suspended.
    • Obvious pricing or settlement errors may lead to correction or voiding of the affected bet to reflect fair market odds.
  • Minimum and maximum stakes
    • Stake limits are set per market and may vary by sport, event, and your account status. Current limits are displayed in the bet slip before you confirm a wager.
  • Odds changes and market availability
    • Odds may change until your bet is confirmed. Markets may be suspended or removed without notice. Any change prior to confirmation will be shown for your review.
  • Settlement and calculation of wins and losses
    • Bets are settled based on the official result as published by the sport’s governing body or event organizer. If an event is postponed, abandoned, or rescheduled, settlement follows the specific market rules presented in the bet slip or rules hub.
    • Returns are calculated as stake multiplied by the confirmed odds, subject to market rules and any applicable deductions.
  • Restrictions on betting
    • Account-level limits may apply to manage risk, responsible gambling, or legal requirements. We may restrict certain markets, suspend an account, or refuse a bet if suspicious patterns, integrity risks, or regulatory issues arise.
  • Cancellations and voids
    • Once confirmed, a bet cannot be cancelled by the user. A bet may be voided where required by market rules, integrity policies, or in cases of palpable error, rule violations, or unlawful activity.
  • Bonuses and promotional bets
    • Promotional bets, free bets, or bonus funds are subject to specific terms, including expiry and wagering requirements. In case of conflict, the promotion’s rules apply in addition to these general rules.

    • Supported methods may include Interac e-Transfer, debit/credit cards, bank transfer, and approved e-wallets, subject to availability in your province or territory.
