Betting Rules

General betting rules

These rules apply to bets placed through the F1 Casino website or any other authorised betting interface made available to eligible customers. They are intended to explain the general operation of betting services. Additional rules may apply to a particular sport, competition, market, game, promotion or betting format. Where a specific rule applies, that rule will be read together with these general Betting Rules.

You are responsible for reading the information displayed before confirming a bet. This may include the event, selection, market, odds, stake, potential return, applicable conditions and whether the bet is placed before an event or while it is in progress. If you do not understand a market or condition, do not place the bet until you have obtained enough information to make an informed decision.

F1 Casino may only accept bets from people who are legally permitted to use betting services in their location. You must provide accurate information, comply with applicable Australian laws and follow any age, identity, location or account requirements that apply to you. Access may be restricted where betting is not permitted or where the available service is not intended for a particular customer.

• Only one personal account may be used unless an exception has been expressly approved under the applicable account terms.
• You must keep your login details private and take reasonable steps to prevent another person from using your account.
• You must not place bets for another person, allow another person to control your account or use payment details that you are not authorised to use.
• You must not use the service for unlawful activity, market manipulation, fraud, money laundering or any other prohibited purpose.
• You must check that the details of a bet are correct before submitting it.

Changes and availability

Betting markets, odds and event information may change or become unavailable at any time before a bet is accepted. Technical interruptions, delays, data errors, integrity concerns or other operational issues may affect the availability of a market. F1 Casino does not guarantee that every event, selection or betting option will remain available until the scheduled start or conclusion.

Placing and confirming a bet

To place a bet, select the available market and selection, enter the intended stake and review the bet slip carefully. The bet slip may show the selected outcome, applicable odds, estimated return and other relevant information. You should check the event name, date, competition, market wording and any special conditions before confirming.

A bet is not accepted merely because a selection has been added to a bet slip or because a request has been sent to the website. A bet is accepted only when the system confirms acceptance and records the bet in the account history or other confirmation area. If no confirmation is shown, you should check the account before attempting to place the bet again.

Once accepted, a bet normally cannot be changed by the customer. This includes changing the selection, stake, odds, market or event. Requests to cancel or amend an accepted bet are not automatically available and may only be considered where the applicable rules or the available product expressly allow it.

The odds shown at the time of acceptance are used for settlement, subject to any clearly stated rules for the relevant product. A displayed price may change before acceptance. If the system identifies an obvious error, technical problem or incorrect price, the bet may be reviewed and handled under the applicable error or integrity rules.

1. Review the market and event details.
2. Check the stake and the possible return shown on the bet slip.
3. Confirm that you are permitted to place the bet and that sufficient funds are available.
4. Submit the bet only after checking all details.
5. Keep the confirmation or account record for your own reference.

Pre-event and in-play betting

Some markets may be available before an event starts, while others may be available during the event. In-play information can be delayed, and markets may be suspended while an important moment is being reviewed. A bet submitted during a suspension may not be accepted. The event status, market availability and any in-play conditions shown on the website should be checked before confirmation.

Results, settlement and abandoned events

Bets are settled using the official result or other recognised result source relevant to the event and market. The result used will depend on the rules of that market. For example, a market may be based on the final result, a specified stage of an event, an official classification, a published statistic or another clearly described outcome. The market wording should always be read before placing a bet.

If an official result is changed after initial settlement, the bet may be reviewed where the relevant rules permit a correction. A correction may also be made where a settlement was affected by a manifest error, incorrect event information, a technical issue or a failure to apply the applicable market rules. Any adjustment will be handled in accordance with the relevant terms.

If an event is postponed, abandoned, interrupted, shortened or rescheduled, the outcome will depend on the rules for the particular market. Some markets may remain valid if enough of the event has taken place or if the result has already been determined. Other markets may be cancelled and returned in accordance with the applicable rules. A change to the scheduled time does not automatically produce the same result for every market.

Where a selection does not participate, starts in an event or is removed from a competition, the relevant rules may determine whether the bet stands, is cancelled, is settled on another basis or is treated as a non-runner. These outcomes can vary between sports, markets and betting formats. You should review any special conditions displayed with the market.

• The official result is generally used rather than informal reports or personal opinions.
• A market may be settled differently from the overall result of an event.
• A result can be corrected if reliable information shows that the first settlement was wrong.
• Postponed or abandoned events are handled under the rules applying to the relevant market.
• Dead heats, ties, draws and equal results may be subject to a specific dead-heat or tie rule.
• If a market is cancelled, the associated stake may be returned according to the applicable conditions.

Multiples and combined bets

A multiple or combined bet depends on more than one selection. The result of the bet may depend on the status of every selection and on the rules for non-runners, cancelled markets, void selections, ties and related outcomes. If one selection is cancelled, the remaining selections may be settled under the applicable multiple-bet conditions. The details displayed for the bet type should be reviewed before confirmation.

Accounts, payments and customer responsibilities

Your account history is the main record of accepted bets, transactions, adjustments and settlements. You should review it regularly and report any apparent error as soon as possible through the customer support channel made available on the website. Keep copies of relevant confirmation messages, bet references and screenshots where appropriate, but do not share passwords or security codes.

Deposits and withdrawals are subject to the available payment methods, verification checks, account terms and applicable laws. You must use a payment method that you are authorised to use. F1 Casino may require information or documents to verify identity, ownership of a payment method, source of funds, location or other account details. Processing can be delayed while a review is completed.

F1 Casino may refuse, limit, suspend or review a transaction or account where there is a legal, security, responsible gambling, integrity, fraud or compliance concern. This may also apply where account information is incomplete, inconsistent or cannot be verified. Any action taken will be managed under the relevant account terms and applicable requirements.

Errors, disputes and complaints

If you believe a bet has been recorded or settled incorrectly, first compare the bet confirmation with the market rules and account history. If the issue remains, raise it through the customer support option available on the website and provide the relevant bet reference, event details and a clear description of the concern. Do not provide your password or unnecessary sensitive information.

Complaints are reviewed using the records available for the account, the accepted bet, the relevant market and the result source. A technical log, timestamp, confirmation record or other system information may be used when assessing what occurred. The decision will be based on the applicable rules and the information reasonably available at the time.

Responsible gambling

Betting should be treated as entertainment, not as a way to make money or recover losses. Set a budget before you begin and only use money you can afford to lose. Consider setting account limits, taking a break or using available self-exclusion tools if betting is becoming difficult to control. Do not chase losses, borrow money to bet or bet when upset, tired or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.

• Decide how much time and money you can spend before betting.
• Keep betting separate from essential household spending.
• Take regular breaks and monitor how often you use the service.
• Do not increase stakes to recover previous losses.
• Ask for help if betting is affecting your finances, relationships, work or wellbeing.
• Use the responsible gambling tools and support information made available on the website.

These Betting Rules provide general information and do not replace the full account terms, product rules, promotional conditions or any legal requirements that apply to your use of the service. If there is a conflict between general information and a specific rule displayed for a product or market, the applicable specific rule will generally govern. Please read all relevant information before placing a bet.
