These Sports Rules explain how sports bets are accepted, calculated, and settled on Bitfortune. By placing a bet, you confirm that you have read and accepted these rules along with the general Terms and Conditions. We may update these rules to reflect operational, regulatory, or product changes. The version available on the website at the time of betting will apply unless stated otherwise.
Definitions
An “Event” is a scheduled sporting match or competition offered for betting. A “Market” is a specific betting option within an event, such as match winner, total goals, or handicap. “Odds” represent the price of a selection at the time your bet is accepted. A “Selection” is the outcome you choose within a market. A “Single” is one selection, while an “Accumulator” (combo or parlay) contains two or more selections.
General Principles
All bets are subject to availability and acceptance by the system. A bet is considered valid only after it is confirmed as accepted and appears in your bet history.
Bets placed after an event has started may be offered as live or in-play markets where available. We reserve the right to suspend or remove markets at any time, including during significant changes in match conditions.
Placing Bets
You are responsible for checking the accuracy of your selections, stake, and odds before confirming a bet.
If a bet is placed in error due to a confirmed technical issue, we may declare the bet void or correct the settlement based on the intended market and the official result. If an obvious pricing or data error is identified, such as clearly incorrect odds inconsistent with the market, affected bets may be voided.
Odds and Payouts
Odds displayed at the time of bet placement may change before acceptance. Once accepted, your bet is settled using the accepted odds.
Potential returns are calculated according to the odds format shown on the site. For accumulator bets, total odds are generally calculated by multiplying the odds of each individual selection.
Types of Bets
Sportsbook offerings typically include pre-match and live betting options. Common bet structures include singles and accumulators.
System bets, special markets, or boosted and promotional offers may be available from time to time. Any additional conditions for enhanced or promotional markets will be displayed at the time of bet placement.
Live (In-Play) Betting
Live markets reflect the evolving status of an event and may be suspended frequently. Odds and market availability can change rapidly.
If a significant moment occurs, such as a goal, red card, or injury time adjustment, the relevant market may be temporarily suspended to update prices. A live bet is valid only if it is accepted before the market suspension or odds update.
Event Start Times and Statistics
Displayed start times and live statistics are provided for convenience only and may not be accurate in real time.
Settlement is based on official results and data issued by the relevant governing body, not on temporary on-screen statistics.
Settlement and Official Results
Bets are settled using the final official result as recognized by the relevant governing body of the sport.
Once an event has been settled, corrections may be applied if a clearly documented official result change is issued. Routine statistical adjustments that do not affect the official outcome may not change settlement unless the market explicitly depends on that statistic.
Postponed, Abandoned, or Interrupted Events
If an event is postponed, suspended, or abandoned, settlement depends on the relevant market rules and whether the event is completed within an acceptable timeframe.
In many cases, bets remain valid if the event resumes and is completed within a defined period. Otherwise, bets may be voided. Markets that are already decided at the time of interruption may still be settled based on the completed portion of the event.
Market-Specific Notes
Match result markets are generally settled based on the outcome at the end of regular time unless the market explicitly states that extra time or penalties are included. In football, this usually means ninety minutes plus stoppage time.
Totals and handicap markets are settled using the final score within the timeframe specified by the market. If a market states that overtime is included, extra time applies; otherwise, settlement is based on regulation time.
Player and team performance markets are settled using official statistics. If a listed player does not participate in the event at all, related markets may be void unless stated otherwise in the market rules.
Multiple Bets and Related Outcomes
Where rules restrict placing multiple bets on closely related outcomes that create an unfair advantage, affected wagers may be voided or adjusted. This can apply to combinations that effectively represent the same underlying outcome across different markets.
Limits, Restrictions, and Account Security
Maximum stakes, maximum returns, and market-specific limits may apply. These limits can vary by sport, competition, and bet type.
We may restrict betting activity to manage risk, prevent misuse, or comply with legal requirements. You are responsible for keeping your account secure and for all betting activity carried out using your credentials.
Errors and Palpable Mistakes
If an obvious error occurs in odds, event details, or market parameters, we reserve the right to void bets placed at incorrect prices. This includes cases where odds are clearly inconsistent with the actual probability implied by the market.
Responsible Betting
Sports betting should be treated as entertainment. If betting becomes difficult to control, consider setting limits or taking a break. Support options are available in the Responsible Gaming section.
Disputes
If you believe a bet has been settled incorrectly, contact support with your bet ID and relevant details. Each dispute is reviewed based on these Sports Rules and official event data.
