Sport Betting Rules
1. General Rules
- 1.1 Settlement is based on official results. If the outcome of a market cannot be verified, Drippybet may delay settlement until the official confirmation is published by the relevant governing body.
- 1.2 If an official result is not published, Drippybet may settle bets using commonly sourced data at its discretion. Settlement decisions based on such data are final unless contradicted by an official result.
- 1.3 If a market or price is published with incorrect information or pricing, Drippybet reserves the right to void the affected bets, wholly or partially, at its discretion.
- 1.4 Drippybet is not obliged to accept bets on selections offered at advertised prices or prices displayed on third-party sites that differ from Drippybet’s live published prices.
- 1.5 Bets may be voided if outcomes are related but not accounted for by the system or price, or if there is a manifest mispricing that affects a market.
- 1.6 Drippybet reserves the right to void bets placed in a manner intended to defraud or when results are already known by the bettor prior to placing the bet.
- 1.7 Settlement or account activity may be suspended where concerns of fraud or integrity in an event arise, withholding payments pending investigation by Drippybet or competent authorities.
- 1.8 Bets may not be canceled or changed once placed and confirmed by Drippybet. Any attempt to modify a bet after acceptance may render the bet void.
- 1.9 Bets deemed incorrectly settled are subject to resettlement within 48 hours. Drippybet reserves the right to reclaim incorrect payouts.
- 1.10 All markets are for regular time unless the market description expressly states otherwise.
- 1.11 If a match is not played to its standard format or is altered (rules, points systems, length, or format), Drippybet may void affected markets.
- 1.12 If a match is not completed due to withdrawal, injury, or other withdrawal of participants, Drippybet may void all bets on open or unsettled markets.
- 1.13 If team names or participant identifiers are displayed inaccurately or reversed from home/away configuration, Drippybet may void all affected bets.
- 1.14 If an event is abandoned or postponed, bets will stand if the event resumes and is completed within 48 hours; if the lineup changes, all open bets are void.
- 1.15 If event coverage is dropped or the official result cannot be verified, bets on the affected markets are void and settled on the official result when available.
- 1.16 If an incorrect score or market data creates a significant price error, Drippybet reserves the right to void the affected bets and, where appropriate, to reprice and resettle at the correct price.
- 1.17 Outright markets are settled for all listed selections; non-participating selections are treated as losers for purposes of settlement.
- 1.18 Dead heat rules apply to tied selections; stakes are split pro rata among tied selections and the remaining stake is treated as a loss, unless stated otherwise in the market description.
- 1.19 Onsite or live data (scores, stats, streams) is provided for reference only and may be delayed; settlement is not based on onsite data unless specified in the market terms.
- 1.20 Bets are settled in decimal odds regardless of the odds format chosen by the bettor.
- 1.21 Drippybet reserves the right, on a bet-by-bet basis, to decide on settlement where circumstances fall outside the scope of the general rules or individual sport rules.
- 1.22 Sporting rules may be amended at any time and notified online. The English version of the rules remains official.
2. Sports-Specific Rules
- 2.1 Football (Soccer)
- All markets settle on the official result at the end of regular time, unless the market specifies inclusion of extra time or penalties. If a result is not available, bets may be voided after a defined objection period or settled on official data as published.
- Unplayed or abandoned matches resolve in accordance with the official decision; bets open prior to the decision may remain open if the match resumes within the stated period and a winner is declared; otherwise, affected markets may be voided.
- Outright markets settle based on the winner of the competition or season; if a participant does not take part, they are treated as a loser for those markets.
- 2.2 American Football
- All markets settle on the official result at the end of the scheduled regular time, unless stated. Overtime is counted only where the market explicitly includes it.
- If a game is postponed or abandoned and not resumed within the applicable period, bets may be voided unless an official winner is declared.
- For payout purposes, a minimum portion of the game must be completed (as specified per market) to determine the result; player and team-specific markets settle on official statistics unless otherwise noted.
- Yardage, downs, or other play-by-play metrics affected by penalties are settled according to the official result after penalties and adjustments; subsequent plays may be used for settlement unless a drive ends prior to the next play.
- 2.3 Athletics
- Events settle on the official result provided by the governing body. Outright selections are runners unless they participate; disqualification or non-participation results in a loss for the applicable markets.
- Abandoned events with no official winner are void; dead-heat rules apply where stated.
- 2.4 Australian Rules Football
- 2.4.1 Markets settle on the official result at the end of regular time (80 minutes), including stoppage time but excluding extra time unless stated.
- 2.4.2 Abandoned or postponed fixtures are void unless resumed within 48 hours with an official result.
- 2.4.3 Half and quarter markets are determined by the score at the end of the specified period.
- 2.4.4 Finals and associated player awards follow official governing body outcomes; dead-heat rules apply where indicated.
- 2.4.5 Outright and special markets may be unsettled in the event of changed competition formats; where applicable, play-through rules apply.
- Markets settle on the official result published by the governing body. If live coverage is interrupted and no result is published, undecided markets are void.
- Postponed or abandoned fixtures void undecided markets if not resumed within 48 hours; official winner declarations govern settlement.
- If markets remain open with a significant scoring misprint affecting prices, bets may be voided.
- If a player retires or defaults, undecided markets are void unless defined otherwise in the market description.
Drippybet’s sport-specific rules reflect the official results and standard industry practice to preserve fair settlement. Where a market description provides a different method of settlement, that description governs.
3. Additional Settlement Principles
- 3.1 Dead heat and tie rules apply where specified. When a tie is possible and a draw option exists, bets settle accordingly; otherwise, settled outcomes reflect the official result.
- 3.2 In the event of a discrepancy between live data and official results, settlement follows the official result as published by the relevant governing authority.
- 3.3 Drippybet reserves the right to suspend or alter settlement timelines in the event of regulatory requirements, system maintenance, or security considerations.
- 3.4 Any changes to the settlement rules are published online; the English-language version remains the authoritative text.
