Betting Rules

1. General betting requirements

You must have a valid account and be legally permitted to gamble before placing a bet with F1 Casino. You are responsible for ensuring that online betting is lawful for you in the place where you are located. We may apply location, identity, age and account verification checks before accepting bets, processing withdrawals or providing access to particular products.

Your account must be registered in your own name and used only by you. You must keep your login details secure and must not allow another person to access or use your account. Bets placed through your account may be treated as authorised by you unless you notify us promptly of suspected unauthorised access. You should contact the relevant support channel through the website if you believe your account or login information has been compromised.

A bet is generally accepted only when it has been successfully submitted through the website and a confirmation is displayed or recorded in your account. Adding a selection to a bet slip does not mean that a bet has been placed. You should check your account history and bet confirmation before leaving the page. If a bet does not appear as accepted, you should not assume that it has been placed.

• Check the event, market, selection, odds, stake and potential return before confirming a bet.
• Only place a bet when you understand the market and the conditions that apply to it.
• Do not place a bet using funds that you cannot afford to lose.
• Keep your account details, devices and payment information secure.
• Review your open and settled bets regularly and raise any concern as soon as possible.

Displayed odds, prices and available markets may change before a bet is accepted. A bet is normally governed by the price and market terms confirmed at the time of acceptance, not by a price that was displayed earlier or that appears after acceptance. We may refuse, restrict or suspend betting where permitted by the applicable Terms and Conditions, including where there is a technical, operational, integrity or legal reason.

3. Settlement of bets

Bets are settled using the official result or another authorised result source applicable to the market. The time at which a result is announced may not be the same as the time at which a bet is settled. A market can remain open while results are checked, official records are updated or relevant information is reviewed.

Unless a market rule states otherwise, later amendments to an official result may not change a bet that has already been settled. However, a settlement may be reviewed where the original result was incorrect, where a material error affected settlement, or where the applicable rules allow a correction. We may correct account records where a bet has been settled incorrectly.

Postponed, abandoned and shortened events

If an event is postponed or abandoned, the result will depend on the rules for the relevant sport, competition and market. Some markets may remain valid if the required part of the event has taken place, while others may be void if the event is not completed within the period or conditions specified in the market rules. A date change alone does not necessarily determine whether a bet remains valid.

Draws, dead heats and ties

A draw or tie is settled according to the market selected. Some markets include a draw as a separate outcome, while others are designed to produce a winner. Where two or more participants share a result, dead-heat or tie rules may apply. These rules can reduce the amount used for settlement and may differ between sports and bet types, so you should read the displayed market conditions before confirming a bet.

Void bets and unavailable selections

A bet or selection may be declared void where the event or market cannot be settled fairly, where the terms of the market require it, or where a legal, integrity or technical issue affects acceptance or settlement. A void bet is generally returned or removed from a multiple in line with the applicable rules. This does not necessarily apply where the bet has already been determined, where part of the event has satisfied the market conditions, or where a specific rule provides a different outcome.

Cash-out, early settlement and similar features may be offered for some bets, but availability is not guaranteed. Such features may be suspended, withdrawn or changed without notice. A request is effective only when the website confirms it. If the feature is interrupted or a value changes before confirmation, the original bet may remain open.

5. Account conduct and responsible betting

Betting should be treated as entertainment, not as a way to earn income or recover losses. Results are uncertain, and no strategy can guarantee a win. Set a budget before you start and consider the amount you spend as entertainment expenditure. Never chase losses by increasing stakes or continuing to bet for longer than planned.

• Set personal deposit, spending or time limits where those tools are available.
• Take regular breaks and avoid betting when upset, tired, intoxicated or under pressure.
• Do not borrow money, use essential household funds or sell belongings to fund betting.
• Keep betting separate from rent, bills, savings and other financial commitments.
• Ask for help if betting is affecting your finances, relationships, work, study or wellbeing.
• Use available account controls, including cooling-off, self-exclusion or account restriction options, where appropriate.

You must not use the service for unlawful activity, fraud, money laundering, account sharing, market manipulation or any other prohibited conduct. We may ask for information to verify your identity, source of funds, payment method or account activity. Access to betting or account transactions may be limited while checks are completed, as permitted by applicable law and the Terms and Conditions.

If you are concerned about your betting, stop and use the responsible gambling tools available on the website. You can also seek independent support from an appropriate Australian gambling-help service or a qualified financial or health professional. If gambling is causing immediate distress or risk, seek urgent assistance from emergency or crisis services in your area.

These Betting Rules are general information and do not replace the full Terms and Conditions or the specific rules attached to an individual market. By placing a bet, you confirm that you have reviewed the relevant information and agree to the rules that apply at the time the bet is accepted. F1 Casino may update these rules when necessary, and the current version published on the website will apply to future betting activity.
