What happens to your acca if a match is postponed?
Short answer
At most of the bookmakers we checked, a postponed match is made void and your acca settles on the remaining legs, so a treble becomes a double and the odds drop. The difference is how long the match has to be replayed in: same day at Ladbrokes, Coral and BoyleSports, 48 hours at William Hill and Unibet, 3 days at Sky Bet and Paddy Power, and 5 days at bet365.

Why your odds drop
When a leg is void, it is taken out of the bet and your stake runs on to the legs that are left. Your stake is not returned unless every leg is void. A 5-fold with one postponed match is settled as a 4-fold, at the combined odds of the four remaining selections.
Enhanced and boosted accas can work differently
Sky Bet reprices a pre-match Enhanced Accumulator on the remaining selections, but settles an in-play Enhanced Accumulator as void if a selection doesn't take part and none of the others lose. Ladbrokes and Coral say that where one selection in an enhanced or price boosted multiple does not take place, the whole bet is void and the stake returned. bet365's Acca Boost is paid at the percentage for the number of winning legs, so an 8-fold with one postponed match gets the 7-fold boost of 15%.
