2. NEDS GENERAL BETTING RULES

2.1 Bets will generally be accepted up to the official starting time of an event. NEDS may in its absolute

discretion, accept or reject a Bet placed after the start of an event. A Bet may be deemed void, if it is

submitted after the official starting time of an event, unless it is a Live In-Play Bet.

2.2 Except in the case of a Live In-Play event, if an event commences before the scheduled time, only Bets

placed before the actual start of the event will be considered valid.

2.3 Unless a Specific Betting Rule states otherwise:

(a) where an event or match is postponed and rescheduled to take place within 48 hours of the

original scheduled starting time of the event or match, all Bets will stand;

(b) where an event or match is abandoned prior to commencing or where an event is postponed and

rescheduled to take place more than 48 hours after the original scheduled starting time, all Bets

will be void and refunded to the Client’s account.

2.4 NEDS reserves the right to resettle an event where an error has occurred with the resulting process or

the dividends declared. Where the resettlement is carried out 24 hours or more after the initial

settlement, customers will be notified by email.

2.5 If a Bet is void at any time, affected multiple Bets will be recalculated excluding that leg.

2.6 The winner of an event or game shall be determined on the date of the event’s conclusion in accordance

with the event’s rules and regulations. We shall not recognize suspended games, protests or overturned

decisions for wagering purposes.

2.7 If a match is abandoned before full time has been played, Bets on the match outcome will be void,

unless an official result is declared. Bets on all markets which have been unconditionally determined will

stand, for example in Soccer, First Goal Scorer Bets will stand if a goal has been scored. The meaning of

‘full time’ is determined by Clause 4 – Sports Betting. Unless otherwise stated, overtime periods shall

be counted as follows:

(a) On all Under/Over (totals) Bets, overtime periods shall be counted in the final score.

(b) On all half-time Bets, overtime periods shall be counted as included in the second half.

2.8 Unless otherwise stated, in instances where a match is called off while in progress, or the outcome is

postponed to a later date, the official result, if any, declared by the Sporting Event’s Controlling Body

will be used to determine the settlement of Bets placed on the outcome of an event. Any events that

have been decided prior to the calling off or postponement of the event shall stand.

mailto:[email protected]

2.9 Multiple Bets shall not be accepted where the outcome of one part of the Bet contributes to the

outcome of another. If a Client inadvertently or deliberately takes a related contingency in a multiple

Bet, the Bet shall be deemed void, and the stakes returned.

2.10 Any multiple Bet made up of more than one selection from the same event shall be deemed a related

contingency, except Bets placed on Baseball, American Football, Basketball and Hockey where sides and

totals make up a multiple Bet.

2.11 Any multiple Bet involving the same team or its players, or the same selection will be deemed a related

contingency.

2.12 Enhanced Prices for Multiple Bets. In cases where we offer an enhanced price for multiple Bets, such as

doubles or trebles, any non-runners will be treated as void selections. For example, a treble with a non-

runner will be settled as a double on the remaining selections. The prices for the remaining selections

will be based on the advertised prices and not the enhanced odds.

2.13 In the event of an event being offered for which we do not currently have specific rules, we will

undertake to provide relevant trading terms and conditions at that time.

2.15 Determining the Result

2.15.1 In the case of all sports (except as stated in Sports Specific Rules) and all other contests that involve a

set length of play or time limit, players must play and the event must run to the conclusion of the

designated time to be considered official for Betting purposes.

2.15.2 Overtime periods or extra time in all sports shall count towards the final result for the match except in

relation to any stated Sports Specific Rules.

2.15.3 Dead Heats and/or Draws. In any competition where the draw is not offered as an explicit 3 way option

(excluding Baseball, American Football, Basketball and Ice Hockey, Golfing Head to Heads, Boxing and

MMA/UFC) any Bets placed on a drawn event shall be resulted in accordance with dead heat rules:

(a) Full face value of the ticket (stake + payout) divided by the number of the dead heat count. For

example, a Bet on Australia vs. New Zealand in Rugby Union, $100 on Australia @ 1.90 would

return $95.

(b) Dead heats or Draws in Baseball, American Football, Basketball, Ice Hockey, Golfing Head to

Heads and Boxing and MMA/UFC will be deemed to be a "push" (full refund of stake).

2.15.4 In the event of a Dead Heat or Draw, where such an option was not offered for Betting purposes, the

ticket will be paid out at face value divided by the number of dead heating competitors of the event

(The Dead Heat Rule).

2.15.5 For multiple Bets, if any leg/legs are void, the multiple Bet will be recalculated excluding the voided

leg/legs.

2.15.6 Unless otherwise agreed by a duly authorised NEDS Sports Betting Officer and the customer at the time

of making the Bet, Bets on sporting events will be settled on the official or podium positions as per the

adjudication of the relevant, recognised governing body. Subsequent disqualification, promotion of

competitors, or any other change is irrelevant for the purposes of determining the result of the

approved sporting event.

2.16 Transfers, Abandonments, withdrawals

2.16.1 Subject to specific Betting Rules set out in Clause 3 below:

(a) Where a race meeting is transferred from one racecourse to another, all Betting Rules will apply

as if the meeting was not transferred.

(b) If a race is abandoned then all live Bets on that race will be cancelled and monies refunded,

subject to NEDS Betting Rules for specific Bet types.

(c) If a race is postponed then all Bets placed after the final field has been declared for that race are

cancelled and monies refunded, subject to NEDS Betting Rules for specific Bet types. All Bets

placed before final field stage will stand.

(d) In the event of a horse being withdrawn late by order of the Stewards, all Bets will be paid as

directed by the officiating Stewards from that meeting direct including Deductions on remaining

runners.

2.17 Cancellation of a Bet

2.17.1 No Bet may be cancelled, changed, or modified by you, in any way or form, once it is has been received

and accepted by us.

2.17.2 In the event that a line or price is put up in obvious error due to a human error by an employee, any

customer Bets entered to take advantage of such error will be void.

2.17.3 In the event of a system malfunction, all Bets are void.

2.17.4 We reserve the right to refuse any Bet prior to its acceptance.

2.17.5 We shall keep a record of all point-spreads, odds, final scores, and related Betting proposition statistics

for the protection of both the Client and us in case of obvious mechanical or human error.

2.17.6 We reserve the right to void any or all Bet(s) made by any individual or group of people acting together

(or on behalf of another individual or group of people) in an attempt to gain financial benefit through

the manipulation of Tote based dividends or official starting prices. This can include persons, relatives,

organisations, bookmakers and their employees.

2.17.7 Where we suspect there has been any form of pool manipulation on any of the Totes we reserve the

right to limit the total payout to any individual account holder across all Bet types to $500 in full

settlement of Bets on that event.

2.18 Cash Out Facility

2.18.1 ‘Cash Out’ is a function which allows you to take a return on your Bet prior to the market(s) in which you

placed the Bet finalising.

2.18.2 Cash Out may be available to customers via our Betting Platforms on selected races, sporting events and

multiple Bets (i.e. accumulators). It is not available to all customers, Bet types or racing and sporting

events.

2.18.3 In order to avoid the abuse of promotions offered by us from time to time, Cash Out may not be

available in respect of bonus Bets, Bets placed using non-withdrawable funds or any Bets placed which

would qualify customers to receive a bonus Bet, bonus or promotion.

2.18.4 Whilst we will endeavour to make the Cash Out functionality available wherever possible, they may be

unavailable from time to time. We provide no guarantee as to their availability and shall not be liable for

any losses incurred due to the unavailability of the Cash Out function. We therefore recommend that

you do not place Bets with the intention of using the Cash Out function as a way of mitigating the

liability of your Bet. All Bets will stand regardless of the availability of the Cash Out features.

2.18.5 Following any request to Cash Out your Bet, we will notify you whether such request was successful.

Cash Out requests are not guaranteed and may be unsuccessful if for example there is a change in the

market odds or the market suspends prior to the request being processed.

2.18.6 In the event that a Cash Out request is unsuccessful, a message will be shown advising this and a new

Cash Out offer may be offered to you.

2.18.7 In the event that a Cash Out request is successful, a ‘success’ message will be displayed and your Bet will

be settled immediately and the Cash Out value returned to your account. Following a successful request,

the value returned to your account will be the higher of

(i) the amount shown on the Cash Out button; or

(ii) in circumstances where the Cash Out Value increases during the period Between your initial request

to use the Cash Out functionality and your subsequent Cash Out confirmation, the increased sum. The

Cash Out value returned is inclusive of the original stake.

2.18.8 When customers successfully Cash Out this shall constitute a settlement (for a Cash Out) of the original

Bet and any subsequent events will have no impact on the amount returned to your Account. All Cash

Out transactions remain subject to our standard settlement and Bet acceptance rules set out in our

Terms and Conditions.

2.18.9 In the unlikely scenario that a Cash Out value (or a price relating to a Cash Out) has been incorrectly

offered, we reserve the right to take corrective measures to rectify such errors, including, where

applicable, settling the Cash Out request for an amount equivalent to the Cash Out value which would

have been available in the absence of such error.

2.18.10 NEDS reserve the right to amend, suspend or remove Cash Out availability at any time on any market or

to any customer.

2.19 Price Boost Odds Enhancer

2.19.2 Price Boost Feature (if available) will allow Clients to place a Bet at the specified enhanced odds, being

better odds than the standard odds displayed for that particular event/betting contingency.

2.19.3 When you, the Client selects the Price Boost option, the enhanced odds which may be available to place your Bet at will appear. If you wish to place your Bet at these enhanced odds, you must ensure that the Price Boost option is selected before proceeding with your Bet. If you do not wish to place your Bet at the odds using the that appear, you must deselect the Price Boost option, before proceeding to place your Bet.

purposes. Any subsequent alterations to that result will not be taken into account unless the alteration

was made due to human error when announcing the result. If the official announcer does not declare a

result at the end of a fight, the market will be settled on the result displayed on the applicable

organisation's official site. If a fight results in a draw, the Fight Result will be deemed void and all stakes

returned, this includes a fight which ends in a “majority draw”.

type. These fights have been set up before the exact date is known and will be reclassified under the

correct event and date, once an official announcement has been made. These fights will only be voided

if either fighter is scheduled to fight another opponent instead. Once a fight has been reclassified, it is

respective round will define the ‘half’ to determine under or over. Should the round end exactly on this

time then affected Bets will be made void.

markets should two or more fights or fighters be awarded the honours.

4.12.9 Stoppages. If the fight is stopped due to an injury or disqualification, either by the referee or the doctor,

then this will be considered a technical knockout (TKO). If the fight is stopped early due to damage

sustained from an illegal attack, or an accidental clash of heads etc, then a technical decision may be

awarded. In this instance, the time of the stoppage would be used to settle all round markets, but the

result of the decision would be used to settle the ‘Decision Victories’ market. If the judges aren’t able to

award a technical decision then the fight may be declared a ‘No Contents’, and all Bets will be void. ‘No

Contests’ awarded after the fight due to a failed drug test will not be resettled, and will stand as

originally declared after the fight. A technical submission may occur when the referee stops the fight

because a fighter has sustained an injury, or become unconscious, while in a submission hold. For

Betting purposes, all technical submissions will be settled as submissions.

World Championships is postponed Bets will stand providing the match is rescheduled to take place

before the closing ceremony.

4.28.3 If the match is no longer playing at the venue advertised, your Bet will still stand. This applies as long as

the venue has not been changed to the opponent's ground (or in the case of international matches, as

long as the venue remains in the same country).

4.28.4 In the event of a match not taking place or if a player/team is given a walkover, Bets on that match are

void.

4.29 WINTER SPORTS

4.28.1 These rules cover winter sports such as cross country skiing, alpine skiing, ski jumping and bi-athlon.

Podium positions will count as official results, regardless of any subsequent disqualifications. If there is

no podium ceremony, settlement will be determined in accordance with the official result declared by

the governing body at the end of the event. If a competitor or team does not start a race or tournament

then Bets placed on that competitor or team are considered to be losing Bets. Stakes will not be

refunded on selections in this case. The dead heat rule applies to Bets on an event where there is more

than one winner, or the result is a draw or tie when no draw or tie price has been available.

4.28.2 Postponed or abandoned events. If, for any reason, an event (other than an Olympic or World

Championship event) is postponed or abandoned all Bets on that event will be void unless the event is

completed within 48 hours of the original start time, or an official result is declared within 48 hours by

the governing body. If, for any reason, an Olympic or World Championship event is postponed or

abandoned then all Bets on that event will be void unless the event is completed before the closing

ceremony of the games.

Party.
