| Bet builder | OfferedOfferedBet builder offered (cash out page caps bet builder cash out at 14 selections).

| Abandoned matchesDiffers | Same-day windowHouse ruleCancelled or postponed match: bets struck before the scheduled kick-off are void. Bets stand if a delayed match takes place the same day (local time), or within a fixed-date tournament such as the World Cup Finals. In multiples, a void selection is treated as a non-runner and the stake runs on to the remaining selections. Football-specific abandonment rules were not captured. | 3-day windowHouse rulePostponed: bets stand if the match is played within the current or next 3 days and this is confirmed within 3 hours of the original kick-off; otherwise singles are void and multiples settle on the remaining legs. Abandoned after kick-off: decided bets stand, others void, unless a restart within 3 days is announced within 3 hours. |
