e. Bet Settlements
BetKing will only credit a User with the value of a winning ticket. In the case of a cash out, BetKing will only pay the amount accepted by the User.
The “possible winnings” section is for information only and all bets will be settled upon the basis of the stake at the accepted odds.
Where a bet slip contains a non-runner or a void selection in a multiple bet, then the bet will be settled based on the remaining selections.
Unless otherwise stated in these special Rules, the result of a sports event or race will be declared by the relevant sport's governing body immediately upon the event's end. If a subsequent enquiry results in an alteration to the previously declared result, then notwithstanding this outcome, the original settlement of bets will stand. For example, horseracing bets will be settled based on the official result at the weigh-in and will not be affected by subsequent enquiries.
If the venue for any sporting event is changed, all bets placed prior to the announcement will be void.
The times of the events cited on the website are only indicative and subject to change by various sports federations. Consequently, bets inadvertently placed after the start of an event will be considered invalid, without prejudice to the other events which may be included in a multiple bet.
BetKing reserves the right to delay a winning to validate if the bet was placed after the game had started. Where the instructions to be ambiguous and the ambiguity cannot be resolved before the start of the event then we reserve the right to void the bet, win or lose.
The live timer is used to ascertain that a bet cannot be placed before a goal or an important event during the match (e.g., a player being sent off).
For display purposes, the odds are reported to two decimal places. When multiplied they often generate a number beyond the cent. In this case, the following rule of rounding is used: 0.0 to 0.4 is rounded to 0.0; 0.5 to 0.9 is rounded up to 1.0.
The system calculates the winnings with high precision and then rounds the values. For instance, if the total odds are 101.2987, it will be displayed as 101.3.
Winnings are however calculated on the original odds and not the rounded figure. An instance is depicted below:
Stake: 10
Total odd: 101.2987
Winning: 1012.98
Actual winnings: 1012.99
All bets placed with BetKing will constitute a gambling agreement between the User and BetKing. Up to the time of suspension of bets accepted by BetKing, all bets previously placed must be considered as a registered contract and therefore cannot be deleted.
If a bet needs to be evaluated by the trader, BetKing reserves the right to reject the bet if the stake is deemed excessive or the bet placed is not aligned with the market.
f. Bet Cashout
BetKing offers a Cash Outs option on single and multiple bets. System bets do not have the cash out option.
Cash Outs are available when the events are pre-match. Where one event on the bet slip has started, the Cash Out option will no longer be available until the results of that event are concluded.
Cash Outs are not available where the odds of an event have been suspended.
BetKing reserves the right to withdraw the Cash Out option on selected events, fixtures and events, on single and multiple bets.
Cash Outs requests are subject to verification as such Users may experience a time delay in ascertaining the amount to be cashed out and the validity of the bet slip. During this delay, any price changes, suspension of markets, and any other system errors that are detected may cause the cash out to be rejected.
On successful Cash Out request, the bet is settled and the User’s wallet credited immediately. The actual final result of the original bet will have no impact on the Cash Out amount.
The Cash Out amount offered at any time is the total amount that will be returned to the User’s account if the Cash Out request is successful.
Any bets that are settled using Cash Out will not count towards the wagering contributions of a first deposit bonus.
Cash Out may be available any hour of the day.
BetKing reserves the right to disable the Cash Out option for any User, shop or group of Users where it has reasonable grounds to believe there is a misuse of the option.
BetKing will not be responsible for any losses due to the Cash Out option not being available for any event or technical reasons.
BetKing can reverse the settlement of a Cash Out if the bet or a market is wrongly settled.
14.Winnings
a. Maximum Winnings
The maximum winnings for any one User per bet slip in any one day in-shop and online shall be Seventy-Five Million Naira (N75,000,000).
The maximum winnings limit of Seventy-Five Million Naira (N75,000,000) shall also apply to a User or group of Users who play duplicate or similar selections over multiple bet slips, (where the selections in such multiple bet slips have a similarity ratio of at least sixty five per cent (65%)) even if carried out on different days or at different locations. BetKing reserves the right to treat the duplicate or similar bet slips as a single bet slip and shall apply the maximum winning of Seventy Five Million Naira (N75,000,000) to the duplicate or similar bet slips within any seven (7) day period. If BetKing suspects that one or more bets have been made following this procedure, BetKing reserves the right to withdraw from these contracts considered abnormal and the total payment will be limited to the maximum payout as above listed.
BetKing reserves the right to publish the information of any winner that wins above One Million Naira (1,000,000) on Sports and or Two Hundred Thousand Naira (N200,000) on Virtual for marketing purposes.
b. Aequo Rule
An "ex aequo” occurs when two or more participants in an event come in a tie for first and second place.
In the event of two selections that end in an "ex aequo", the User’s bet is divided, with half of the stake applied to the winning selection and the other half lost. With more than two selections, the stake is divided proportionally.
The presence or absence of specific information on any event being bet on, such as events played on "neutral fields" or any changes to the playing surface, will not be cause for cancellation or refund of the bet. It is the User’s responsibility to be informed on such updates regarding the event being bet on.
c. Winnings From N500,000
In compliance to EFCC KYC (Know Your Customer) Policy, BetKing will require a valid means of identification to enable us to process a withdrawal request for such winnings. For the purpose of verification, the acceptable valid means of identification are:
- driver's license,
- international passport,
- national identity card,
- voter's card.
In the event that BetKing does not receive the required document, BetKing reserves the right to hold the winnings till validation is complete.
d. Retirements and Reductions
The rule of "non-runner" concerns the revision of odds on bets placed that result won in the case that one or more competitors in the market do not participate, retire, or should be excluded from the event. In this case, a reduction factor may be applied to the odds of the remaining participants of the event. The reduction factor will be calculated taking into account the winning probability which will then be applied to the winning bets.
The reductions may be applied to placed bets.
Example:
If the final reduction factor of a non-runner is equal to 25% of the value of the average odd placed (fixed odd equal to 4), the bets placed will be reduced by 25%, therefore a placed bet with odd at 8.00 will become of 6.00 and so on and so forth. If another player does not participate, retires or is excluded from the event, such values can be further reduced.
The reduction factor established may be applied at BetKing’s discretion.
For any event where a specific rule is not specified on the BetKing site, all decisions on such event will be at BetKing’s discretion.
e. Maximum Cumulative Winnings Payout Rule
Subject to the Sports Daily Winnings limit below, the maximum cumulative winnings for any one User in one day shall be Three hundred million (N300,000,000). Where a User wins multiple bet slips within twenty-four (24) hours period, such that the cumulative winnings exceed three hundred million (N300,000,000), BetKing shall cap all the winnings irrespective of their value to be Three hundred Million (N300,000,000). This does not apply to casino events, for the maximum winnings cap for Casino Events kindly visit BetKing Casino's "how to" | Casino T& C - BetKing Mobile.
f. Sports Daily Winnings Limit:
The sports daily winning limit applies to each User or group of Users who have placed bets containing the same selections. Where bets have been placed through different channels (including online, mobile and land-based retail), at different prices, at different times on one or multiple accounts it will still be deemed to be a single group of Users. By reviewing the commonality of selections if BetKing deem (at its sole discretion) that the bets are placed as a group all the bets combined will be treated with one maximum sport daily winnings limit. Where the sports daily winnings limits are exceeded, bets will be paid out proportionally based on the pro rata amount of the stake within the User betting group. All bets are deemed settled when the final selection finishes, in the case of system bets partial winnings will be deemed to have settled on the day of the final selection. Cashed out bets will count towards the aggregate winnings total. Stakes are not affected and will not be subject to reduction. Notwithstanding the above, all winnings also remain subject to the Maximum Cumulative Winnings Payout Rule set out above.
