General Rules
- A match will be deemed to have begun once the first serve has been struck.
- In the event of a match not taking place, or taking place at a different venue, bets on that match will be voided.
- In the event of a match taking place at least 24 hours after its scheduled start time, all bets on that match will be voided.
- In the event of any of the named players in a match changing before the match starts then all bets on that match will be voided.
- In the event of a match starting but not being completed then all markets will be void.
- If a badminton match doesn't take place or if a player is given a walkover, bets on this match are deemed void.
- Non-runners: stakes will be refunded in respect of players or teams who are withdrawn prior to the start of an event. Separately, we reserve the right to make the equivalent of a Tattersalls Rule 4(c) deduction to any successful bets which are placed on the event's remaining participants.
- Bets on badminton are subject to a maximum payout of £5,000.
Correct Score
- In the event of a disqualification or retirement from a match or an abandonment of a match, all bets on the correct score of that match will be voided.
- If, during a given match, there is a change to the total number of sets to be played, all bets on the correct score of that match will be voided (but all other markets involving the relevant match will stand).
- For correct score markets, the number first appearing in the score is the score of the home player and the number appearing second is the score of the away player. For example, bets placed on "2-1" are bets on the home player to win by two games to one and bets placed on "1-2" are bets on the away player to win by two games to one.
Match Handicap Betting, Match Point Handicap, Total Games; Total Points
- Following either a disqualification or retirement from a match or an abandonment of a match, all bets on these markets will be voided other than those in respect of which markets have already been unequivocally determined. For example, should a match be abandoned in the 3rd game in a best of 3 game match, then bets on Over 2 / Under 3 Games will be settled as winners/losers accordingly (since the match has gone to a decisive 3rd game).

- Following either a disqualification or retirement from a match or an abandonment of a match during the game on which the applicable bet was placed, all bets on these markets will be void other than those in respect of which markets have already been unequivocally determined. For example, should a game be abandoned at 20-15 then bets on Over/Under 35.5 points or fewer in that game will be settled as winners/losers respectively (since, at the point of abandonment, any conclusion to the game would necessarily have to have had at least 36 points).
