TABLE OF CONTENTS

1. GENERAL SPORTS RULES

1. Settlement of our sports betting Markets are governed by the following conditions, save where the rules relating to a particular sport or market provide otherwise. Where there is a conflict between the following conditions and a particular individual sports rule, the individual sports rule prevails. As stated in rule 5.12 the market information, found by clicking the I symbol next to the market name on the PointsBet website and app, can vary the content of these rules.

1.1 EVENT NOT TAKING PLACE OR ON WHICH THERE IS NO PLAY FOLLOWING PLACING OF BET

1. Any Bet, open or closed, which is: on an event which does not take place; or on an event which has begun but in which there is no further activity after the Bet is placed, shall be void.

1.2 ABANDONMENT

1. In the case of a match starting but not able to be completed/is abandoned, all bets will be void, unless the result of the bet has been unequivocally determined. This can be varied by specific rules contained in section 6.
2. Subject to any specific sports rule to the contrary, If an event is postponed and rescheduled to occur within 48 hours of the original start time, all bets will stand. If it is rescheduled for more than 48 hours later, all bets are void.
3. Where an event which is scheduled to be completed over a period of two or more days is not completed within three months of the day on which it was scheduled to be completed, all Bets on that event shall be void. All Bets placed after the last completed action in the event will be void.
4. For the avoidance of doubt, where an event is completed on the day scheduled for completion, but later than scheduled, that does not affect the settlement of any Bet on that event.
5. Any Bet, shall be void where:

i. the Bet is placed on a participant who takes no part in the subject event; or ii. the Bet is placed on a participant who takes no further part in the subject event after the Bet is placed; unless otherwise stated.

6. Any Bet placed when the price is based on an inaccurate score 'so far' may be re-rated so that it operates as a Bet on the future. This means that, for instance, where a Market is made in Total Goals for an AFL Match –on Over 24, under 22 based on no goals at that stage, and where there has in fact been one goal, any bet at that price is adjusted so it becomes a bet at Over 25, under 23. This rerating will always reflect the real impact of amending an inaccurate score 'so far'. The above provision is subject to our overriding discretion to void any Bet made based on incorrect information.
7. All Bets should be Bets on future events whose outcome is yet to be determined. If for whatever reason a Bet is placed on an event whose outcome is capable of being known at the time at which the Bet is being placed, the Bet can be voided at our absolute discretion (whether the outcome is in fact known to the client or not).
8. We also reserve the absolute right to void any Bet placed on a Market on an event after that event has begun, unless we are quoting prices on that Market in-play, or the Bet is placed during an interval in which the prices have been updated.
9. The settlement of the markets for each match is based on the results provided by the governing body except where specific rules state the contrary.
10. Where in our reasonable judgement no official result is available, the result will be:
11. determined by an independent authority whose verdict shall be final for all purposes, or
12. otherwise determined in accordance with our reasonable opinion, such opinion to be formed by reference to all available evidence.
13. Bets will provisionally be settled by reference to all available evidence, but if the result which is determined as set out above differs from the result used for provisional settlement, settlement may be retrospectively adjusted so as to reflect the result so determined.
14. Rules on Bets on an individual event involving injury time and extra time vary for individual sports. For specific rules, please refer to Section 6.0 – Individual Sports Rules.
15. Where betting takes place in a particular unit of time about the duration of an event or the length of time until an occurrence in that event, all such Bets will be settled as if the occurrence occurred at the end of the unit of time in which it occurred. So if there was betting on the duration of a Boxing fight in minutes, and the fight ended after one minute and seven seconds, the make-up would be two minutes.
16. If an event occurs after scheduled time has elapsed, it will be treated as having occurred at the end of the scheduled period. So if a first half goal were scored once the 45th minute of the game had started, the make-up would be 45 minutes even if the goal was scored in injury time.
17. The blowing of the whistle immediately following the ball crossing the line in Football, or being touched down in Rugby or American Football, will be deemed to be the time of the occurrence of the event, notwithstanding any subsequent referral of the decision by the referee to a third party for confirmation or adjudication, as long as the event is confirmed.
18. Markets may be made (i) in Sports which we do not regularly cover and (ii) may also be offered as 'Specials' on individual Sports events on which we would offer our usual range of Markets in the normal course of business.
19. In respect of all of the above, situations inevitably will arise from time to time which have not been specifically addressed herein. Such Markets will be settled in accordance with the conditions published in the market information which found in the market information accessed by clicking the "I" symbol next to the market name on the PointsBet website and app.
20. In the event of an inconsistency between the market information and any relevant conditions contained within the Rules, the Rules shall prevail (although we would encourage you to inform us if you have reason to believe there is any inconsistency between any Special Market and these Rules). In the absence of relevant conditions within Special Market Rules, such Markets and situations will be settled on a basis which conforms as closely as is reasonable to these conditions, and by reference to similar Markets in regularly covered Sports. Our decision as to where parallels may most fairly be drawn shall be final.
21. Certain Markets involve stipulations which must be met if the Market is to stand, e.g. that a batsman whose runs in a test series are being traded must play two tests. Where the stipulation or stipulations is/are not met, any Bet on that Market shall be void. These stipulations will be found in the market information accessed by clicking the "I" symbol next to the market name on the PointsBet website and app.
22. The client must make themself aware of all conditions, rules and stipulations affecting any Market in which they wish to bet. Our staff will be pleased to answer any enquiry put to them, and the client will be deemed to know of any condition, rule or stipulation which would have been revealed by such enquiry.
23. All information is supplied in good faith, and we shall have no liability whatsoever for any error or inaccuracy in information so supplied.
24. The above conditions, and the Sports- specific rules which are set out below, may from time to time be displaced by rules and stipulations applied to particular Markets or types of Markets. Where this is the case we will detail such variation in the General Sports Rules, Individual Sports Rule or Special Market Rules.
25. Where a Bet is offered about the performance of participants in an event, and one or more of the participants are disqualified, for the purposes of settlement of the Bet the disqualified participant will be considered to have progressed further in the event than all those eliminated from the event prior to his or her disqualification and will be deemed to have finished last of those still competing in the event. For the avoidance of doubt, disqualification will be considered to have taken place at the time when the incident occurred which caused disqualification and not at the time of the participant's removal from the event.
26. A Dead Heat occurs when two or more selections are placed in the same position after the final results have been given from a specific event. In the event of a Draw, where such an option was not offered for betting purposes, the Return is calculated by dividing the Return (which would be payable if the Winning Selection were not involved in a dead heat, tie or draw) by the number of Selections involved in the dead heat, tie or draw, unless otherwise stated.
27. Unless otherwise stated, in a two-way market that involves a flat line or total, if the line or total lands exactly on the specified number, the bet will be a "push". In the event of a push the bet will be void and the stake will be returned. For example, if the line is Carolina Panthers -3 versus the Tampa Buccaneers, and the Panthers win 20-17, the bet will be refunded because the Panthers won by exactly 3 points. For the avoidance of doubt this does not apply to Markets with more than two selections.
28. If the name of a selection is misspelled, all bets will stand if it is obvious, reasonably practicable or within reason to assume that the misspelled player name refers to the correct player, e.g., anglicisation of non-English names.
29. In many cases, markets will be still be resulted if an event is called off where the result is unequivocally determined. A result is unequivocally determined when:
30. The market has already had its result decided; or if the event were completed in its entirety, the outcome of the relevant bet would have been guaranteed. For example, If a customer places a bet on Over 18.5 Total Match games in a tennis Match and a retirement occurs with the score line 7-6 5-0, this bet will be deemed a Winner as should the match have reached its natural conclusion, it was guaranteed to reach at least 19 total match games.

For the avoidance of doubt, where it is possible for the market to have a negative result, for example Player Rushing Yards in an NFL match, the market cannot be unequivocally determined.

1.3 POSTPONEMENT

1. Subject to any specific sports rule to the contrary, If an event is postponed and rescheduled to occur within 48 hours of the original start time, all bets will stand. If it is rescheduled for more than 48 hours later, all bets are void.
2. Where an event which is scheduled to be completed over a period of two or more days is not completed within three months of the day on which it was scheduled to be completed, all Bets on that event shall be void. All Bets placed after the last completed action in the event will be void.
3. For the avoidance of doubt, where an event is completed on the day scheduled for completion, but later than scheduled, that does not affect the settlement of any Bet on that event.

1.4 PARTICIPATION

1. Any Bet, shall be void where:

   i. the Bet is placed on a participant who takes no part in the subject event; or

   ii. the Bet is placed on a participant who takes no further part in the subject event after the Bet is placed;

unless otherwise stated.

1.5 BETS ARE PLACED ON FUTURE EVENTS

1. Any Bet placed when the price is based on an inaccurate score 'so far' may be re-rated so that it operates as a Bet on the future. This means that, for instance, where a Market is made in Total Goals for an AFL Match –on Over 24, under 22 based on no goals at that stage, and where there has in fact been one goal, any bet at that price is adjusted so it becomes a bet at Over 25, under 23. This rerating will always reflect the real impact of amending an inaccurate score 'so far'. The above provision is subject to our overriding discretion to void any Bet made based on incorrect information.
2. All Bets should be Bets on future events whose outcome is yet to be determined. If for whatever reason a Bet is placed on an event whose outcome is capable of being known at the time at which the Bet is being placed, the Bet can be voided at our absolute discretion (whether the outcome is in fact known to the client or not).
3. We also reserve the absolute right to void any Bet placed on a Market on an event after that event has begun, unless we are quoting prices on that Market in-play, or the Bet is placed during an interval in which the prices have been updated.
4. Player Awards futures markets (and similar award-based markets) will be settled on an all-in basis unless otherwise specified, in writing by PointsBet.

1.6 THE RESULT

1. The settlement of the markets for each match is based on the results provided by the governing body except where specific rules state the contrary.
2. Where in our reasonable judgement no official result is available, the result will be determined by an independent authority whose verdict shall be final for all purposes, or otherwise determined in accordance with our reasonable opinion, such opinion to be formed by reference to all available evidence.
3. Bets will provisionally be settled by reference to all available evidence, but if the result which is determined as set out above differs from the result used for provisional settlement, settlement may be retrospectively adjusted so as to reflect the result so determined.

1.7 PERIODS OF TIME

1. Rules on Bets on an individual event involving injury time and extra time vary for individual sports. For specific rules, please refer to Section 6.0 – Individual Sports Rules.
2. Where betting takes place in a particular unit of time about the duration of an event or the length of time until an occurrence in that event, all such Bets will be settled as if the occurrence occurred at the end of the unit of time in which it occurred. So if there was betting on the duration of a Boxing fight in minutes, and the fight ended after one minute and seven seconds, the make-up would be two minutes.
3. If an event occurs after scheduled time has elapsed, it will be treated as having occurred at the end of the scheduled period. So if a first half goal were scored once the 45th minute of the game had started, the make-up would be 45 minutes even if the goal was scored in injury time.
4. The blowing of the whistle immediately following the ball crossing the line in Football, or being touched down in Rugby or American Football, will be deemed to be the time of the occurrence of the event, notwithstanding any subsequent referral of the decision by the referee to a third party for confirmation or adjudication, as long as the event is confirmed.

In the absence of relevant conditions within Special Market Rules, such Markets and situations will be settled on a basis which conforms as closely as is reasonable to these conditions, and by reference to similar Markets in regularly covered Sports. Our decision as to where parallels may most fairly be drawn shall be final.

1.9 MARKETS INVOLVING STIPULATIONS

1. Certain Markets involve stipulations which must be met if the Market is to stand, e.g. that a batsman whose runs in a test series are being traded must play two tests. Where the stipulation or stipulations is/are not met, any Bet on that Market shall be void. These stipulations will be found in the market information accessed by clicking the "i" symbol next to the market name on the PointsBet website and app.

1.10 CLIENT'S RESPONSIBILITY

1. The client must make themself aware of all conditions, rules and stipulations affecting any Market in which they wish to bet.

1.11 EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY

1. All information is supplied in good faith, and we shall have no liability whatsoever for any error or inaccuracy in information so supplied.

1.12 PARTICULAR RULES FOR PARTICULAR MARKETS

1. The above conditions, and the Sports- specific rules which are set out below, may from time to time be displaced by rules and stipulations applied to particular Markets or types of Markets. Where this is the case we will detail such variation in the General Sports Rules, Individual Sports Rule or Special Market Rules.

1.13 DISQUALIFICATION

1. Where a Bet is offered about the performance of participants in an event, and one or more of the participants are disqualified, for the purposes of settlement of the Bet the disqualified participant will be considered to have progressed further in the event than all those eliminated from the event prior to his or her disqualification and will be deemed to have finished last of those still competing in the event. For the avoidance of doubt, disqualification will be considered to have taken place at the time when the incident occurred which caused disqualification and not at the time of the participant's removal from the event.

1.14 DEAD HEAT RULE

1. A Dead Heat occurs when two or more selections are placed in the same position after the final results have been given from a specific event. In the event of a Draw, where such an option was not offered for betting purposes, the Return is calculated by dividing the Return (which would be payable if the Winning Selection were not involved in a dead heat, tie or draw) by the number of Selections involved in the dead heat, tie or draw.

1. Unless otherwise stated, in a two-way market that involves a flat line or total, if the line or total lands exactly on the specified number, the bet will be a "push". In the event of a push the bet will be void and the stake will be returned. For example, if the line is Carolina Panthers -3 versus the Tampa Buccaneers, and the Panthers win 20-17, the bet will be refunded because the Panthers won by exactly 3 points. For the avoidance of doubt this does not apply to Markets with more than two selections.

1.18 UNEQUIVICALLY DETERMINED

1. In many cases, markets will still be resulted if an event is called off in circumstances where the result is unequivocally determined. A result is unequivocally determined when:
2. The market has already had its result decided prior to the event being called off; or
3. if the event were completed in its entirety, the outcome of the relevant bet would have been guaranteed. For example, If a customer places a bet on Over 18.5 Total Match games in a tennis Match and a retirement occurs with the score line 7-6 5-0, this bet will be deemed a Winner as should the match have reached its natural conclusion, it was guaranteed to reach at least 19 total match games.

25. If a Super Over, Bowl-Off of any official tiebreaker method is used in the match to give an official victory to either team in the match, the match result will be settled on the victor of this tiebreaker method. The runs and wickets in these super overs are not included in the settlement of any market and this tiebreaker method is used for the match result only. If there is no tiebreaker method used, and the match is officially declared tied, the match result will be settled as a dead heat. If the match is otherwise abandoned without a winner, the match is void.

26. Match Line (Spread Betting): If the winning team is batting second and wins by X wickets, irrespective of balls remaining, the market is settled in 10 multiplied by the number of wickets won by. If the team batting first wins, the market is settled by the amount of runs they won by.

    If the Duckworth-Lewis or similar method is used for calculating the victor, the market will be settled as such: if a team successfully chases down a revised total, or an innings reaches its natural conclusion through an exhaustion of the revised overs or the team being bowled out, the market will be settled on the margin of victory by runs or wickets as per the above rules. However, if the minimum overs for each innings has been reached and the final innings has not reached its natural conclusion, the market will be settled according to the second innings score against the official "par" score, as it applies to the match result. For example, if the second innings team is chasing 250 and they are 5/199 after 40 overs when rain ends the game, they might be 18 runs ahead of the par score at the time and the match line will be settled at 18. If the result the match is a tie or decided by a super over or any other official tie breaker, the match line will be settled at zero.

29. For Series correct score markets, should a limited-overs game have no result, the outcomes that were still possible should that game have a result will be settled as a dead heat, and all other outcomes would be settled as losses.

    1. Goes into the net.
