Introduction

All information on the Website is provided by the Website service provider, Vavada B.V. Certain provisions of this Sports Betting Policy containing the pronouns ‘we’, ‘us’, “our” or the word ‘Company’ do not refer to the above-mentioned company with which the agreement is concluded.

Terms and Conditions for Accepting Bets

Placing bets — bets can only be placed through the official website of the Betting Platform. All bets must be placed before the start of the relevant event, with the exception of live bets. Bets placed after the start of the event are considered invalid, unless they fall into the category of Live bets.
Bet confirmation — after placing a bet, a confirmation message will appear on the Customer's screen. The bet is considered valid from the moment it is recorded in the bet history of the Customer's account.
Cash out and bet cancellation — once a bet has been confirmed, it cannot be cancelled or changed by the Customer. However, the Customer has the right to use the cash out option, which allows them to withdraw part of the bet amount before it is settled. The cash out amount is dynamic and may be less than the original bet amount. This option is not considered a cancellation of the bet, but is treated as a partial redemption of the bet. In the event of obvious errors, such as incorrect odds or incorrect event data, the Betting Platform reserves the right to declare the bet invalid and return the original bet amount to the Customer.
Minimum and maximum bets — The betting platform may set minimum and maximum bet sizes for each bet. These limits may vary depending on the event, bet type and the Customer's betting history.
Suspicious betting patterns — The betting platform monitors all bets for suspicious patterns. In the event of reasonable suspicion of fraudulent activity on the part of the Customer, such as match-fixing or collusion, the Platform reserves the right to declare such bets invalid, freeze the account and report the relevant information to the authorities.

Cash Out feature

Cash Out — the Cash Out feature allows the Customer to end a bet before its outcome is known. The Cash Out amount depends on the current odds and the course of the event.
Availability — the cash out function may not be available for certain bets or at certain times. The betting platform does not guarantee the availability of this function at all times. It may be suspended, in particular, during live betting, due to rapid changes in the market situation.
Partial cashout — in certain cases, the Customer may be offered the option of a partial cashout — withdrawal of part of the bet, with the remaining amount continuing to participate in the bet until it is settled.
Final settlement — after processing the cashout request, the corresponding bet is considered closed, and the outcome of the event will no longer affect the bet.

Winnings and payouts

Winnings calculation — winnings are credited to the Customer's account immediately after the official result of the event is confirmed. Payouts are made based on the odds that were in effect at the time the bet was placed.
Payout restrictions — The betting platform may set maximum payout limits for certain events or types of bets.
Suspension of payouts — The betting platform reserves the right to suspend payouts if there are reasonable grounds to suspect fraud, match-fixing or other violations. If fraud is confirmed, the relevant bets will be declared invalid and no payouts will be made.
