House Rules
, whichever is the lesser. The minimum and
maximum bet per selection is determined
exclusively by BIU and is detailed on screen.
BIU reserves the right to accept or decline the
whole or part of any proposed Bet.
Bets placed by debit card or any other means do
not become valid until we have received payment.
If payment has not been received before an event
commences, then that bet is automatically void
unless we communicate otherwise to you at the
time of the attempted placing of the Bet.
Each Bet will be given an individual number as
confirmation of the Bet. Bets will be valid
(subject to meeting the criteria for placing a
bet laid down in the Terms) if accepted by the
FanDuel Sportsbook Bet Server, whether or not
the customer receives the bet code. We are not
liable for the settlement of any bets where we
have not issued a written confirmation of
acceptance of the Bet or where we are unable to
display that Bet in the ‘My Account’
pages of the Services. It is the
customer’s responsibility to ensure that
all of the details of their bets are correct.
Once a Bet has been confirmed by FanDuel
Sportsbook, that bet cannot be cancelled by the
customer. If you have any concern as to whether
your Bet has been accepted, please log in and go
to the ‘My Account’ pages of the
Services where details of all live bets entered
into by you will be displayed.
You must exercise your own judgement in placing
a Bet and you hereby confirm that you have not
relied on the advice of any BIU employee
relating to any Bet.
You agree to pay us for all Bets that are placed
with us using your Account.
Bets must be made via the Websites or via the
Betting Apps.
Please familiarize yourself with betting and
gaming terminology and how the various bets and
games are operated. If you have any questions
relating to the foregoing, please
contact us
. BIU cannot accept any responsibility if you
place a bet in circumstances where you do not
fully understand any of the terms involved or
how the Bet or game is operated.
On occasion the prices available across the
various Services may not be the same - for
example, a price on the FanDuel Sportsbook
Website may not be the same as those prices
available on other Services. BIU accepts no
liability for the fact that a customer could
have obtained a different price through some
other medium.
Guaranteed prices and other special offers or
promotions are available at the discretion of
BIU and can be restricted on an individual
Account basis at any time.
BIU is not responsible for any taxes that may be
payable by you whether on any Bets, on any
winnings or otherwise.
With the exception of “Live Betting”
events (see Section 10 below for Live Betting
rules), Bets are accepted up to the off-time of
the event or a pre-determined time, whichever is
earlier. However, FanDuel Sportsbook may allow a
grace period for some sporting events during
which bets will be accepted but we reserve the
right to void any or all Bets should we think
there has been a significant development in the
event prior to placement or purported placement.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to void
any Bet if accepted in error after the betting
has closed or where the event was resolved or at
a stage where the customer could have an
indication of the outcome. In such
circumstances, we will normally return your
stake.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to void
any or all Bets made by, any group of people
acting in conjunction with each other, or any
individual acting alone, in an attempt to
defraud FanDuel Sportsbook.
Not all participants are quoted in every event.
However, a price is available for almost all
entries or outcomes in any event. If you wish to
bet on an unnamed selection, please contact one
of our Customer Support agents and we will try
to add this selection to the market.
BIU may, at its sole discretion and without any
requirement to give reasons, exclude any
customer from the Services generally or from
receiving selected promotions (e.g., guaranteed
best price; bonuses; free bets; enhanced prices;
and money-back specials) and any other
promotions and offers introduced by us from time
to time.
In the event of there being a dispute over the
time at which a bet was placed or whether a Bet
has been placed, then the time at which it was
recorded (if recorded) on the transactional log
will govern settlement. If an attempted bet was
not recorded on the transactional log, no Bet
shall be deemed to have been placed. You should
check your Account balance each time you visit
the Services.
It is a condition of our acceptance of Bets from
you, and by offering to place a Bet with us you
represent and warrant, that:
You are not prohibited from entering
into the Bet by any term of your
contract of employment, these Terms or
any rule of a sport governing body or
other professional body of which you are
a member, which applies to you;
Where the Bet is placed on the outcome
of a race, competition or other event or
process or on the likelihood of anything
occurring or not occurring (“the
event”), you do not know the
outcome of the event;
You are not misusing Inside Information
(as defined in Clause 8.22) to place a
Bet; and
You are not a Prohibited Sports Betting
Participant.
In the event of any representation made by you
in Section 8.17 proving to be false, BIU
reserves the right to void bets, suspend your
Account, and we shall not be obliged to pay any
winnings which might otherwise have been payable
in respect of the Bet.
In the event of a warning being received by
FanDuel Sportsbook in relation to suspicious or
irregular betting patterns and possible
instances of event manipulation FanDuel
Sportsbook reserves the right, in its absolute
discretion, to:
Suspend its offering on any event or
series of events in any of its markets;
and

event or series of events until the
integrity of such event or series of
events has been confirmed:

federation or governing body
(where applicable); or
by FanDuel Sportsbook using its
reasonable discretion.
Further, in the case of active event
manipulation being confirmed as having taken
place on any event or series of events (by the
appropriate sports governing bodies or by any
other means), FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the
right, in its absolute discretion, to suspend
any Bets placed on such events, either by any
individual identified as having misused Inside
Information (defined in Section 8.22) or by any
other individual who in the reasonable opinion
of FanDuel Sportsbook is connected to, acting in
conjunction with, or in any way involved with
such individual or the event manipulation.
We reserve the right to refuse or limit any Bets
or bonuses (for example by setting minimum and
maximum amounts which will be set out in the
Sportsbook Rules
, or by setting wagering requirements), or
change such limits, at our sole discretion for
any reason whatsoever without any obligation to
provide you with notice.
“Inside Information” means any
information which has not been made public and,
if it were made public, would be likely to have
a material effect on the relevant market
relating to the event.

remedies that may be available to us, we may

obtaining credit, have become
bankrupt, may not be gaming
responsibly or that you may have
self-excluded; or
We are required to do so by law.
Irrespective of whether we suspend or terminate
an Account and notwithstanding any other
provisions in these Terms, we may decide to
cancel or void any Bets at our absolute
discretion where:
There is a technological failure; or
Where in our judgment, acting
reasonably, there is a manifest error in
the terms of a bet offered to, or placed
by, any party.
If you have a question relating to your Account,
it is your responsibility to notify BIU at the
earliest opportunity, providing as much
information as BIU may require.
Following termination or suspension of your
Account, we may, in the normal course of
business, return any funds in your account.
Please contact
Customer Service
to request any funds held in suspended or closed
accounts. However, we reserve the right to
withhold the funds in your Account from you
pending the determination of any investigation
(including any relevant external investigation)
where:
We suspect you have acted in breach of
these Terms or any other agreement
relevant to your activities on our site,
including where we suspect the Account
has been linked with fraudulent or
‘suspicious betting’
activity (explained in
Clause 9 ); and/or
We have to withhold the funds in your
Account by law or to comply with any
advice, request or instruction from any
governmental, regulatory or enforcement
authority.
If an internal or external investigation
reasonably demonstrates that you have acted in
breach of these Term, any other agreement
relevant to your activities on the Website or
Betting Apps, or that your Account has been
linked with fraudulent and/or ‘suspicious
betting’ activity, we reserve the right to
seize some or all of the funds in your Account.
The disposition of any funds obtained by us in
this manner will be at our sole and absolute
discretion and/or in accordance with any advice,
request, or instruction from any governmental,
regulatory or law enforcement authority. In
addition, if formally requested by law
enforcement, gaming regulators, or taxation or
other authorities, or in the event that you fail
to provide us with sufficient information to
identify yourself in accordance with our
internal procedures or those procedures imposed
on us by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission
and/or other authorities, we may suspend your
Account and all functionality relating to the
use of your Account (e.g. bet management and
withdrawal of funds) and withhold from you any
funds in your Account pending the final
determination of any criminal or other legal
proceedings or investigation to which such a
request may relate or until you provide the
necessary 'know your client' or
'age verification' information as
appropriate.
For the avoidance of doubt, at no point during
any such suspension or termination period will
interest accrue to you on any funds in your
Account.

Suspicious Betting
For the purpose of this Section 9,
“suspicious betting” shall refer to
where we have reasonable grounds to believe that
a bet or a number of Bets have been placed under
suspicious circumstances. Suspicious betting
shall include, but not be limited to:
Where there is an inordinate frequency
and/or highly unusual pattern of Bets
(by comparison with betting norms)
placed on the same selection(s) in a
short space of time;
Where there is an inordinate frequency
and/or highly unusual pattern of Bets
placed on the same selection(s) and
where the theoretical probability of
said selection(s) winning at the time of
Bet(s) placement, based on the odds
offered on the selection(s) at the time
of bet placement, is largely
inconsistent with the theoretical
probability of the same selection(s)
winning calculated using their starting
prices;
Where the integrity of an event (or
events) has been called into question,
including, for example, but not limited
to where one (or more) of the
participants in an event displays
exceptional form which we reasonably
believe was known to you or someone
connected to you at the time of bet
placement but was concealed from the
public generally in order to gain an
unfair advantage in any bets placed on
that event (or those events);
Where we have reasonable grounds to
suspect that a Bet or a string of
connected Bets were placed robotically,
by automated means, or otherwise than
through the Account holder placing each
Bet manually via their Account;
Where we reasonably believe that you
have used unfair external factors or
influences connected with the event(s)
the subject of any Bet(s);
Where we reasonably suspect that you
have opened duplicate Accounts or where
we reasonably suspect that second or
subsequent Accounts are under common
control with your Account with a view to
concealing the true worth, nature or
pattern of Bets placed by you or on your
behalf, even if second or subsequent
Accounts are opened under different
names;
Where we otherwise believe, acting
reasonably, that you are acting in
concert with others or that you are
acting other than on your own behalf; or
Where we reasonably believe that bets
have been placed from a location or
Device other than the location or Device
which you claim to have used to place a
Bet.
In the case of any of the activities
contemplated by Section 9.1, and without
restricting our ability to rely on other
remedies that may be available to us, we may,
acting reasonably, and depending on the
circumstances:
Request such further information from
you as may reasonably be required by us
to investigate whether the Bet or Bets
constitute suspicious betting for the
purpose of Section 9.1;
Suspend or withhold payment of any
amounts (or any parts thereof) pending
the receipt by us of satisfactory
evidence from you in order for us to
determine (acting reasonably) that a bet
does not constitute a suspicious Bet as
such term is referred to in Section 9.1.
For example, but without limitation,
where we suspect that a Bet or a string
of connected Bets may have been placed
robotically or by automated means, we
may require you to provide reasonable
evidence that each Bet was placed
manually by you via your Account. You
further acknowledge and accept that we
reserve the right, at our sole
discretion, to collect and process any
information in connection with your
betting patterns, personal data,
depositing of funds and any other
related information and inquiries that
will help us to investigate any
suspected breach of these Terms;
Suspend or withhold payment of any
amounts (or any parts thereof), usually
for no longer than thirty (30) days but
where relevant for such longer period of
time as may reasonably be required (for
example, pending any investigations by
BIU, any sports governing body, a
gambling regulator, a law enforcement
authority or any other third party);
Void a Bet or a string of connected Bets
(including for example multiples) prior
to the event. Where possible, we shall
communicate to you in advance that the
Bet(s) has (or have) been voided prior
to the (first) event the subject of the
Bet(s);
Calculate any winnings based on the
starting price of the event(s) the
subject of the Bet(s). Where possible,
we shall communicate to you in advance
that any Bet(s) will be settled at the
starting price; or
Where there is an inordinate frequency
and/or unusual pattern of Bets placed on
the same selection(s) in a short space
of time and where we have reasonable
grounds to suspect that the Bets are
connected Bets, limit the payment of
winnings in respect of those Bets (and
where necessary with such limitation
applied across multiple accounts) to the
maximum payout for individual Bets on
any particular market or markets as set
out in the
House Rules
.
Where we have reasonable grounds to believe that
you have participated in, or have been connected
with, any type of suspicious betting, we shall
use our reasonable efforts to investigate such
matter, including, but not limited to, through
the use of various collusion, suspicious
betting, fraud and cheating detection practices
which are used in the gambling industry.
We reserve the right to terminate an Account if
we reasonably suspect any of the activities
described in Section 9.1 in connection with that
Account.
Where a Bet is deemed to be, or is declared,
void by us prior to an event, any sum deducted
from your Account with respect to that Bet shall
be credited to your Account.
We reserve the right to seek to recover from you
any losses we suffer that are directly or
indirectly connected to any of the activities
contemplated in Section 9.1. This right is
without prejudice to any other rights (including
common law rights) that we may have against you,
whether under these Terms or otherwise.
We will not be liable under any circumstances
whatsoever for any loss you or any other person
may incur as a result of the collusive or other
behavior in breach of this Section 9. Further,
we reserve the right, but shall not be obliged,
to take any other actions in the case of any of
the activities contemplated in Section 9.
In exercising any of our rights under this
Section 9, we shall ensure that we exercise such
rights in a manner which is fair to you and to
our customers generally. If you have any
comments or questions in respect of this Section
9, please do not hesitate to contact
Customer Service
.
Live Betting & Cash Out
Live Betting (or In-Play Betting) means betting
that takes place while an event is in progress.
In addition to the rest of these Terms, the
following rules apply to Live Betting:
We reserve the right to void any part of
any, or all, Bets on any Live Betting
event that is not completed (i.e.,
abandoned, postponed);
Where a blatant or palpable error is
made in offers made, prices offered or
bets accepted or in the in transmission
of any event on which we have purported
to offer Live Betting, Bets may be
settled at the correct price at the time
at which the Bet was placed, as
determined by FanDuel Sportsbook; or
Where we have reasonable grounds to
believe that a Bet is placed after the
outcome of an event is known, we reserve
the right to void the Bet.
Please note that in the case of Live Betting,
you may not at any time be able to see or
otherwise be provided with the most up-to-date
information in relation to the relevant event,
including for example (but without limitation),
through delayed coverage, a slow connection or
equipment, or other system flaws, faults, errors
or service interruption. FanDuel Sportsbook
shall not be liable for any delay in relaying
up-to-date information.
In addition to the rest of these terms relating
to Live Betting (which apply equally to our Cash
Out functionality), the rules relating to the
Cash Out feature are further described
here
. Please note in particular that for a variety
of reasons (including for example technical
issues, human error, suspicions of fraud or
other improprieties and/or other issues outside
of our control), FanDuel Sportsbook cannot
guarantee the availability at all times of the
Cash Out functionality, even where the
functionality has been advertised in connection
with a particular event. Please be aware and
accept, therefore, that unless Cash Out is
available and successfully exercised in
connection with a particular Bet, your initial
Bet will, unless otherwise provided in
accordance with these Terms, stand as originally
placed.
Gaming
Certain games involve peer-to-peer events via
the Services where you will be playing against
other customers. Please note that we cannot
control certain actions of those customers, who
may be for example undertaking fraudulent
activities such as colluding with other third
parties or using unfair external factors or
influences. If you suspect a third party is
colluding, cheating or undertaking a fraudulent
activity, please let us know as soon as
possible. We will take reasonable steps to
prevent such unacceptable behavior. However, we
will not be liable for any loss or damage which
you may incur as a result of such third party
collusion, fraud, cheating or otherwise illegal
activity.
Betting Apps
In addition to the rest of these Terms, and all
other terms and conditions that apply (such as
rules relating to bonuses or particular games
and/or functionalities or any other terms
relating to any other Betting App), the
following terms and conditions apply to the
Betting Apps.
You accept that using the Betting Apps outside
of a WiFi network may result in data charges
from your mobile network provider. BIU will not
be responsible for any data charges incurred as
a result of your using the Betting Apps.

customer’s Account. Please see Section 7.2
for details on withdrawal methods.

the lesser sum. Currency equivalent maximum
payouts will apply for any currency not listed

circumstances pay any amounts in excess of those
limits to a customer for any purported winnings
exceeding these limits.

no later than six months after the last event in
the Bet has been settled. We cannot guarantee
that we will be able to respond to your question
if it is not raised within this time.

and/or initials and state and any winnings you
may have had for advertising or promotional
purposes without additional compensation.
We report winnings to the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) and the Massachusetts Department
of Revenue, for any bet which results in
proceeds of $600.00 or more where the winnings
are at least 300 times the amount of the wager.
For bets which result in net proceeds greater
than $5,000.00 where the winnings are at least
300 times the amount of the wager, we withhold
24% of the net proceeds and remit such amount to
the IRS. For bets that meet the legally required
threshold in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,
we also withhold the percentage of the net
proceeds required by law in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts and remit such amount to the
Massachusetts Department of Revenue. If you are
subject to IRS reporting requirements, we will
send you Form W2-G summarizing the information
for tax purposes by January 31st of the year

Errors & Suspected Errors
FanDuel Sportsbook makes every effort to ensure
that no errors are made in prices offered or
Bets accepted. However, human and/or
systems’ error may occasionally result in
errors.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to
correct any obvious errors and to void
any Bets placed where such errors have
occurred.
In the case of any blatant errors in prices
transmitted (including for example where the
price being displayed is materially different
from those available in the general market
and/or the price is clearly incorrect, depending
on all of the circumstances), bets will be
settled at the correct price at the time of
acceptance. If a bet is accepted by us on an
event where offering a price on the event itself
(rather than the price) was in error, the bet
will be void and your stake will be returned.
Should funds be credited to a customer’s
Account in error, it is the customer’s
responsibility to notify us of the error without
delay. Any winnings subsequent to the error and
prior to the notification to us, whether linked
to the error or not, shall be deemed invalid and
returned to, or otherwise be reclaimable by,
BIU.
Any monies which are credited to your Account,
or paid to you as a result of an error shall be
deemed, pending resolution under Clause 14.1.1
to be held by you on trust for us and shall be
immediately repaid to us when a demand for
payment is made by us to you. Where such
circumstances exist, if you have funds in your
Account we may reclaim these funds from your
Account pursuant to Section 18.2. We agree that
we shall use reasonable efforts to detect any
errors and inform you of any such errors
relating to you, your engagement with us, or
your Account, as soon as reasonably practicable.
As soon as you suspect or become aware of an
error you shall:
Immediately cease play; and
Inform us as soon as reasonably
practicable of any such error or
suspected error.
Where you have used funds which have been
credited to your Account or awarded to you as a
result of an error to place subsequent Bets, we
may cancel such Bets and/or withhold any
winnings which you may have won with such
monies, and if we have paid out on any such
Bets, such amounts shall be deemed to be held by
you on trust for us and shall be immediately
repaid to us when a demand for payment is made
by us to you.
If you are incorrectly awarded any winnings as a
result of (a) any human error; or (b) any bug,
defect or error in the Software, then FanDuel
Sportsbook will not be liable to pay you any
such winnings and you agree to refund any such
winnings that may have been paid to you as a
result of such error or mistake.
By using our Services, you understand that we
reserve the right to change or remove any of
these Services at any time.
Chargebacks and Cancellation
You hereby agree, warrant and represent that no
chargebacks or other cancelation of deposits
will be made relating to your Account without
our consent. In the event of any of the
foregoing occurring, you agree to indemnify us

damages and expenses arising in connection
therewith and to refund and compensate us for
any losses we would otherwise incur arising from

that is detrimental to the conduct of
our business or which may result in
legal liability for you, us or third
parties;

usage could represent ‘business
usage’ (‘business
usage’ includes any use by a

individual or organization supplying
data or services to a betting operator);
We suspect that you may be having
difficulties obtaining credit;
We have the right to do so as set out in
any of our other policies;
You are prohibited from entering into a
Bet by any term of your contract of
employment or any rule of a sport
governing body or other professional
body which applies to you; or
You place a bet on any sporting match or
event in which you take part
In relation to any cancelled or void
Bets, we reserve the right to hold any
money in your Account relating to these
Bets to be paid to us or, if there are
insufficient funds in your Account,
demand that you pay us the relevant
outstanding amount relating to these
Bets.
Void Bets & Right of Set-Off
BIU may be required by law to conduct certain
checks on customers or those applying to open a
new Account. Where we are required by law or
otherwise determine to close an Account for a
breach of these Terms, your attention is brought
to the following terms:
All previous Bets will be voidable at
the option of BIU and any winnings which
you have accrued will be forfeited by
you and you will return to us on demand

from your Account; and

Bets made but for which the event is not
yet completed will be returned to you

outstanding chargebacks or any other
amounts owed to us at that time.

deposit in your Account against any amounts owed
by you to the Sportsbook.
Fraud

sanctions against you if we suspect you have
engaged in fraudulent, dishonest or criminal
acts and we will disclose such information to
the relevant authorities or other relevant third
parties (for example, payment service providers)
as may be necessary in this regard.
BIU reserves the right to suspend or terminate
any Account it believes to be involved in fraud,
money laundering and/or any other form of
illegal or suspicious activities and to report
such details as it reasonably considers are
necessary to relevant authorities.
You undertake that all money that you deposit in
your Account is untainted with any illegality
and, in particular, does not originate from any
illegal activity or source.

unless you have opted into location
verification. In order to receive this
opt-in text message, you must have a
supported carrier. If you opt out of
Location Services, you will no longer be
able to access the Services or sports
wagering menus as BIU will no longer be
able to verify that you are physically
located in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts. For further details
regarding location or SMS services,
please contact
Customer Service
.
If you wish to enable two-factor
authentication on your Account in order
to log in to the Websites or Betting
Apps, you may do so in your Account
settings (“Two-Factor
Authentication”). When Two-Factor
Authentication is enabled, BIU will send
a randomly generated code via text
message to your registered cell phone
number each time your Account username
and password are correctly entered. You
must enter this code on the Website or
Betting App in order to successfully
access the Services or the games or
sports wagering menus. In order to opt
in to Two-Factor Authentication you must
have a supported carrier. Should you
wish to opt-out of Two-Factor
Authentication, you can do so at any
point by responding “STOP”
to the original opt-in text message or
by texting “STOP” to the
short code.
Supported carriers for Location Services
and Two-Factor Authentication include
major US carriers such as AT&T,
Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon Wireless.
Additional carriers such as Boost,
Cricket, U.S. Cellular, and Virgin
Mobile are also supported where
available. Message and data rates may
apply; please check with your carrier
for further details.

(ii) to use certain Content that we may
from time to time make available on the

such purposes as may be explicitly
stated at the time that the FanDuel
Licensed Elements are made available on
the Services; but we and our licensors
and certain other third parties, as the
case may be, retain ownership of such
FanDuel Licensed Elements. The foregoing
limited license: (i) does not give you
any ownership of, or any other
intellectual property interest in, any
Content, and (ii) may be immediately
suspended or terminated for any reason,
in BIU’s sole discretion, and
without advance notice or liability. In
some instances, we may permit you to

transmit, reuse, re-post, or use the
Content on the Services for public or
commercial purposes, including the text,
images, audio, and video without
BIU’s written permission.

use the data available from the Website
and the other Services (including for
example odds, both live and historical)
only as strictly required for your
permitted personal, non-exclusive,
non-sublicenseable, non-commercial
purpose of availing of the Services. Any
other use and/or reproduction of the
data without prior written consent of
BIU is prohibited and will constitute a
breach of these Terms. BIU reserves its
right to take such action as it
considers necessary, including issuing
legal proceedings without further notice
to you, in relation to any unauthorized
use of its data or of the Website or
Services.
General
Third Party Linking.
At BIU’s discretion, the Website
or other Services may contain links to
third party websites. These links are
provided solely as a convenience to you
and not as an endorsement by BIU of the
contents on such third party websites.
BIU is not responsible for the content
of linked third party sites and does not
make any representations regarding the
content or accuracy of materials on such
third party sites. LINKS TO ANY SERVICES
PROVIDED BY A THIRD PARTY ARE NOT
INTENDED FOR TRADING OR INVESTING
PURPOSES AND BIU WILL ACCEPT NO
LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL,
INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE OR ANY
OTHER LOSSES OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF
YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE
INFORMATION PROVIDED. IF YOU DECIDE TO
ACCESS LINKED THIRD PARTY WEBSITES, YOU
DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK.
BIU generally welcomes the hyper-linking
to our Website from other appropriate
websites provided such links are to our
homepage (and no deeper within the
Website) and provided BIU gives its
written consent to the establishment of
such links. BIU reserves the absolute
right to refuse to consent to such links
without giving reasons. Any links to
either Website from another website must
be presented in such a manner that the
viewing of the Website is not impaired
by framing or similar techniques that
may impair a browser’s experience.
BIU does not permit linking from its
Website or its Services to third party
websites or services or the display of
third party content on top of, or in
addition or as an alternative to, our
Website or Services without our express
written consent. In particular, BIU
expressly prohibits third parties from
framing, similar techniques or other
acts of impairment of a user’s
experience when they visit our Website
or engage with our Services. To this
end, and by your acceptance of these
Terms whether as registered member or
otherwise, you hereby acknowledge that
where you engage in any of the foregoing
prohibited actions:
Damages may not be an adequate
remedy for any infringement and
that we are entitled to the
remedies of injunction, specific
performance, an order to deliver
up materials which infringe our
intellectual property rights and
any other statutory or equitable
relief and that no proof of
special damages is necessary for
reliance on such remedies; and
You shall indemnify us for any
liabilities, losses or damages
(including reasonable legal
fees), however caused, that may
arise as a result of or in
connection with your
non-compliance with this
Section.
Transfer and Assignment.
On occasion, we may require the ability
to transfer, assign or sublicense these
Terms to a third party, for example (but
without limitation) in the case of our
engaging new third party service
providers or in the case of a merger or
acquisition. You hereby consent, and we
reserve the right to, transfer, assign
or sublicense these Terms, in whole or
in part, to any person without requiring
any additional consent and without
notice, provided that any such
assignment will be on the same terms or
terms that are no less advantageous to
you.
You may not assign, sublicense or
otherwise transfer in any manner
whatsoever any of your rights or
obligations under these Terms without
our prior written consent.
Severability.
If any provision of these Terms is held
to be invalid, void or unenforceable by
reason of any law, rule, administrative
order or judicial decision, that
provision will be, to the extent
strictly necessary, severed from the
remaining terms and conditions and that
determination shall not affect the
validity of the remaining provisions of
these Terms. In the case of the
severance of any terms, the part deemed
invalid or unenforceable shall be
amended in a manner consistent with the
applicable law to reflect, as closely as
possible, the original intent in these
Terms.
Waiver.
Failure by BIU to insist upon strict
performance of any of your obligations
or to exercise any of the rights or
remedies to which we are entitled shall
not constitute a waiver of such rights
or remedies and shall not relieve you
from compliance with such obligations
and a waiver by us of any default shall
not constitute a waiver of any
subsequent default.
Notices.
Notices and other communications
delivered or mailed to the postal
address or to the electronic-mail
address provided by you shall, until we
have received notice in writing of any
different address, be deemed to have
been personally delivered once sent
whether actually received or not
Interpretation.
In the event of there being any conflict
or inconsistency between the terms and
conditions comprising these Terms as
identified in Section 2, the order of
precedence shall be as follows:
Any other of our terms and
conditions, rules or policies as
they relate to promotions,
bonuses, special offers or any
other aspect of your use of the
Services from time to time.
Entire Agreement.
These Terms and any documents referred
to herein represent the entire agreement
between BIU and you and supersede any
prior agreement, understanding or
arrangement, whether oral or in writing.
We each acknowledge that we have not
relied on any representation,
undertaking or promise given by the
other or implied from anything said or
written in negotiations between us
except as expressly stated in these
Terms.
Communications.
When you communicate with us
electronically, such as via e-mail and
text message, you consent to receive
communications from us electronically.
Please note that, except as set forth in
these Terms or otherwise required by
applicable regulations, we are not
obligated to respond to inquiries that
we receive. You agree that all
agreements, notices, disclosures, and
other communications that we provide to
you electronically satisfy any legal
requirement that such communications be

Investigations; Cooperation with Law
Enforcement; Termination; Survival
.
We reserve the right, without any
limitation, to: (i) investigate any
suspected breaches of the
Services’ security or its
information technology or other systems
or networks; (ii) investigate any
suspected breaches of these Terms; (iii)
investigate any information obtained by
us in connection with reviewing law
enforcement databases or complying with
criminal laws; (iv) involve and
cooperate with law enforcement
authorities in investigating any of the
foregoing matters; (v) prosecute

or terminate your access to it, in whole
or in part, including any Accounts or
registrations, at any time, without
notice, for any reason and without any
obligation to you or any third party.
Any suspension or termination will not
affect your obligations to us under
these Terms. Upon suspension or
termination of your access to the
Services, or upon notice from us, all
rights granted to you under these Terms
will cease immediately, and you agree
that you will immediately discontinue
use of the Services. The provisions of
these Terms, which by their nature
should survive your suspension or
termination will survive, including the
rights and licenses you grant to us in
these Terms, as well as the indemnities,
releases, disclaimers, and limitations
on liability and the provisions
regarding jurisdiction, choice of law,
no class action, and mandatory
arbitration.
Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY - IT MAY
SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING
YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
Initial Dispute Resolution.
Our
Customer Service
department is available to address any
concerns you may have regarding the
Services. Our Customer Service
department is able to resolve most
concerns quickly to our patrons’
satisfaction. The parties shall use
their best efforts through this Customer
Service process to settle any dispute,
claim, question, or disagreement and
engage in good faith negotiations which
shall be a condition to either party
initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
Failure to engage in this process could
result in the award of fees against you
in arbitration.
Binding Arbitration.
If the parties do not reach an agreed
upon solution within a period of 30 days
from the time informal dispute
resolution begins under the Initial
Dispute Resolution provision set forth
above, then either party may initiate
binding arbitration as the sole means to
resolve claims, subject to the terms set
forth below. Specifically, all claims
arising out of or relating to these
Terms (including their formation,
performance and breach), the
parties’ relationship with each
other, and/or your use of the Services
(including the Site, the App, and any
wagering transactions) shall be finally
settled by binding arbitration
administered by JAMS in accordance with
the provisions of its Streamlined
Arbitration Rules and Procedures,
excluding any rules or procedures
governing or permitting class or
representative actions.
Except as set forth in Section 30.4, the
arbitrator, and not any federal, state
or local court or agency, shall have
exclusive authority to resolve all
disputes arising out of or relating to
the interpretation, applicability,
enforceability or formation of these
Terms, including, but not limited to any
claim that all or any part of these
Terms are void or voidable, whether a
claim is subject to arbitration, and any
dispute regarding the payment of JAMS
administrative or arbitrator fees
(including the timing of such payments
and remedies for nonpayment). The
arbitrator shall be empowered to grant
whatever relief would be available in a
court under law or in equity. The
parties agree that the arbitrator may
allow the filing of dispositive motions
if they are likely to efficiently
resolve or narrow issues in dispute. The
arbitrator’s award shall be
written, and binding on the parties and
may be entered as a judgment in any
court of competent jurisdiction. No
arbitration award or decision will have
any preclusive effect as to issues or
claims in any dispute with anyone who is
not a named party to the arbitration.
The Streamlined Arbitration Rules
governing the arbitration may be
accessed at www.jamsadr.com or by
calling JAMS at (800) 352-5267. If you
commence arbitration in accordance with
these Terms, you will be required to pay
$250 to initiate the arbitration. To the
extent the filing fee for the
arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a
lawsuit, the arbitrator may require BIU
to pay the additional cost. You are
responsible for your own
attorneys’ fees unless the
arbitration rules and/or applicable law
provide otherwise. If the arbitrator
finds the arbitration to be
non-frivolous, BIU will pay all of the
actual filing and arbitrator fees for
the arbitration, provided your claim
does not exceed $75,000. For claims
above $75,000, fees and costs will be
determined in accordance with applicable
JAMS rules. The arbitration rules permit
you to recover attorney’s fees in
certain cases.
Arbitration will take place at any
reasonable location within the United
States convenient for you.
Any arbitration demand or counterclaim
asserted by either party must contain
sufficient information to provide fair
notice to the other party of the
asserting party’s identity, the
claims being asserted, and the factual
allegations on which they are based. The
arbitrator and/or JAMS may require
amendment of any demand or counterclaim
that does not satisfy these
requirements. The arbitrator has the
right to impose sanctions in accordance
with JAMS Rule 24 for any claims the
arbitrator determines to be frivolous or
improper (under the standard set forth
in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11).
The parties agree that JAMS has
discretion to modify the amount or
timing of any administrative or
arbitration fees due under JAMS’s
Rules where it deems appropriate,
provided that such modification does not
increase the costs to you, and you waive
any objection to such fee modification.
The parties also agree that a good-faith
challenge by either party to the fees
imposed by JAMS does not constitute a
default, waiver, or breach of this
Section 30 while such challenge remains
pending before JAMS, the arbitrator,
and/or a court of competent
jurisdiction.
The parties understand that, absent this
mandatory provision, they would have the
right to sue in court and have a jury
trial. They further understand that, in
some instances, the costs of arbitration
could exceed the costs of litigation and
the right to discovery may be more
limited in arbitration than in court.
Limited Time to File Claims.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR WE WANT TO
ASSERT ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION
AGAINST THE OTHER ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATED TO THE USE OF THE SERVICES OR
THE TERMS, THEN YOU OR WE MUST COMMENCE
IT WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM
OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE -- OR IT WILL
BE FOREVER BARRED.
Exception - Litigation of Intellectual
Property and Small Claims Court
Claims.
Notwithstanding the parties'
decision to resolve all disputes through
arbitration, either party may bring an
action in state or federal court to
protect its intellectual property rights
(“intellectual property
rights” means patents, copyrights,
moral rights, trademarks, and trade
secrets, but not privacy or publicity
rights). Either party may also elect to
have disputes or claims resolved in a
small claims court that are within the
scope of that court’s
jurisdiction. Either party may also seek
a declaratory judgment or other
equitable relief in a court of competent

the outcome of any arbitrable claims and
remedies.

Wager Type Calculations
Calculations for wager types are as follows:
Moneyline payoff: The money line is expressed as
a 3-digit number. For example, -120 means a
player must bet $120 for every $100 they wish to
win, and multiples thereof. Or, +150 means a
player will win $150 for every $100 bet.
Point spread payoff: The point spread is
expressed as a 3-digit number. For example, -110
means a player must bet $110 for every $100 they
wish to win. Or, +225 means a player will win
$225 for every $100 bet.
Parlay payoff - Odds will be calculated based on
the prices of the individual selections.
Teaser payoff - Odds are derived from a fixed
payout chart.

in the following manner:
Posted odds will be changed automatically on the
electronic boards.
Posted odds will be changed manually on all
handwritten boards.

The FanDuel Sportsbook will accept wagers on
currently posted terms unless otherwise posted
or noted on printed media.
Funding of Wagers
Customers may fund their FanDuel Sportsbook Account
as described in Sections 7 and 8 of Part A - General
Terms and Conditions.
In-Play Betting
General
If a market is not scheduled to be
turned in-playbut FanDuel Sportsbook fails to suspend
the market at the relevant time, then:
if the event has a scheduled
'off' time, all bets
matched after that scheduled off
time will be void; and
if the event does not have a
scheduled 'off' time,
FanDuel Sportsbook will use its
reasonable efforts to ascertain
the time of the actual
'off' and all bets
after the time of the
'off' determined by
FanDuel Sportsbook will be void.
FanDuel Sportsbook aims to use its
reasonable efforts to suspend in-play
markets at the start of and at the end
of the event. However, FanDuel
Sportsbook does not guarantee that such
markets will be suspended at the
relevant time.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right at
its absolute discretion to part-suspend
or fully suspend outcomes/selections in
a market that has been turned in-play.
FanDuel Sportsbook customers are
responsible for managing their in-play
bets at all times.
For the purposes of in-play betting,
customers should be aware that
transmissions described as
“live” by some broadcasters
may actually be delayed or pre-recorded.
The extent of any delay may vary
depending on the set-up through which
they are receiving pictures or data.
Please also be aware that, for
operational reasons, bet requests made
in-play may take slightly longer to
process.
If FanDuel Sportsbook accepts a bet on a
market for which the outcome has already
been determined, then that bet shall be
deemed void (and no winnings shall be
payable in respect of it) regardless of
the bet being a win, lose or push.
FanDuel cannot guarantee the
accuracy or timeliness of live
scores, time remaining and the
status of games displayed on the
FanDuel Sportsbook Website and the
FanDuel Sportsbook Betting Apps in
connection with live betting, which
may come from third parties not
controlled by FanDuel. We accept no
liability for the incorrect display
of this information. If you rely on
this data to place bets, you do so
entirely at your own risk.
Results and market settlement
General
Where the Specific Sports Rules do not
specify how and on what basis a market
will be settled, markets will be settled
on the official result of the relevant
governing body regardless of any
subsequent disqualification or amendment
to the result.
If no official result of a relevant
governing body is available, the result
will be determined by FanDuel Sportsbook
(acting reasonably) using information
from independent sources. In such cases,
if any new information comes into the
public domain within 48 hours of
settlement, then FanDuel Sportsbook
shall (acting reasonably) determine
either:
Whether the market should be
reinstated or resettled in light
of this new information; or
Whether or not to wait for
further information before
deciding whether to reinstate or
resettle the market. Except
where FanDuel Sportsbook has
announced that it is waiting for
further information, any
information that comes into the
public domain more than 48 hours
after a market has been settled
shall not be considered by
FanDuel Sportsbook (regardless
of whether or not such
information may have led to a
different result).
In the event of any uncertainty about
any result or potential result, FanDuel
Sportsbook reserves the right to suspend
settlement of any market for an
unlimited period until the uncertainty
can be resolved to the reasonable
satisfaction of FanDuel Sportsbook.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to
void any market if the uncertainty
regarding settlement cannot be resolved
to FanDuel Sportsbook’s reasonable
satisfaction.
In the event of a withdrawal of a
selection after the start of an event
due to such selection testing positive
for a virus or other disease, all wagers
on that selection shall be void.
All-In Betting - All-In' means that
regardless of whether or not a
particular competitor or team or member
of a team starts or completes the event
on which a bet is placed, all bets stand
and no refunds will be payable. Clients
will be notified if a market is All-In
via Blurbs, Market title and/or
Selection name.
In the event a player, team or selection
are deemed the winner of a specified
Outright market with one winner (e.g.
NCAA Men’s Basketball
Championship) but were not offered for
betting due to state regulations
forbidding betting on that player, team
or selection then all bets placed on
that market will be void. This does not
include cashed out bets, which will be
settled at the specified cash out offer
received by the customer. For markets
with multiple winners (e.g. To Make
Final Four), if a non-listed player,
team or selection wins, then all bets
are action.
Weekly/Daily specials: All relevant
games must be played to a natural
completion for wagers to stand. In the
event one or more game(s) are postponed
and/or have a venue change, all wagers
in the relevant market will be refunded.
Regarding player markets. Additional to
the rules above, all listed players must
be active for wagers to stand. If one or
more player(s) listed do not play, all
wagers will be refunded.
Resettlements
Markets are generally settled shortly
after the end of the event in question.
FanDuel Sportsbook may settle (or
part-settle) some markets before the
official result is declared purely as a
customer service benefit. However,
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to
amend the settlement of the market if:
The official result is different
to the result on which FanDuel
Sportsbook initially settled the
market; or
If the whole market is
eventually voided (e.g. for an
abandoned event).
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to
reverse the settlement of a market if a
market is settled in error (for example,
a human or technical error).
If FanDuel Sportsbook resettles a
market, this may lead to amendments
being made to a customer's balance
and/or the deduction of funds from a
customer’s Account to reflect
changes in market settlement.
FanDuel Sportsbook will settle markets
on the basis that it obtains the
relevant information once the outcome
has been determined. If this information
is not obtained, or if there is an
obvious error in the information, the
settlement of the bet offer will be
based on other public information/
official sources at the reasonable
discretion of FanDuel Sportsbook.
FanDuel Sportsbook may be required by
law to seek approval with the relevant
regulatory body before making any
amendments to a price or bet status.
Non-Runners
Unless stated otherwise, sports bets are
accepted on a “non-runner, no
bet” basis. This means that stakes
will be refunded on a player, team or
other competitor that is withdrawn prior
to the start of an event. If you have
placed a bet on a sporting event run on
a “non-runner, no bet” basis
and a player, team or other competitor
(on which you did not place your bet) is
withdrawn, suspended or disqualified
from that event, we may apply relevant
deductions to your winnings (based on
the price of the player, team or other
competitor that is withdrawn) referenced
in the table below.
Where specified, certain markets will be
offered on an “all-in compete or
not” basis. This means that, if a
player, team or other competitor is
withdrawn from an event (whether he, she
or it pulls out of the event, is
suspended or disqualified from it or
otherwise) before he, she or it has
taken part in the event, then any bet
placed on that player, team or
competitor (as applicable) will be
deemed a losing bet.
If an event is specified as “fixed
draw” and a team, player or other
competitor is withdrawn, suspended or
disqualified from that event, we reserve
the right to settle any bets on the
subsequent prices once the market has
been revised without the withdrawn
team/player.
If a player, team or other competitor
has taken any part in a sporting event
once it has officially started and then
fails to complete that event for any
reason, any bet placed on that player,
team or other competitor will be deemed
live (i.e. bets on that player, team or
other competitor will not be voided).

Unexpected events and other changes
To the extent there is any inconsistency between the
general rules contained in this Part B, Section 8
and the Specific Sports Rules applying to a specific
event, the following general rules will prevail:
If an event or events occur beyond the
reasonable control of the FanDuel Sportsbook
such as an epidemic, pandemic, flood, fire,
earthquake, element of nature or act of God, act
of war, terrorism, riot, rebellion, strike,
blockade, labor disruption or other cause, that
materially impact any sporting or other event
(or a series of events in a season), which is
the subject of a contingency or outcome of a
market offered by the FanDuel Sportsbook, the
FanDuel Sportsbook may, acting in good faith,
exercise its discretion to void, cancel,
restrict or otherwise alter or adjust the payout
(in whole or in part) of the affected wager(s)
placed on the relevant market (including,
without limitation, retrospectively take any of
the actions contemplated once a bet has been
placed and before or after it has been
resolved). For the avoidance of doubt,
“impact” on any sporting or other
event includes, without limitation:
Any reduction in the number of games or
matches in a season;
Any material change in the length of a
game or match or when the matches are
played;
A material change to the format or rules
of the relevant event(s), series or
competitions as determined by the
relevant sports body; or
A change in the location of any match,
game or event.
Futures Settlement
Some markets have different rules and these are
listed in the Specific Sports Rules. However,
where a market has no rules in the Specific
Sports Rules in relation to how and on what
basis a futures market will be settled the
following shall apply.
Where a season or tournament is unexpectedly
shortened all futures markets/bets will be
settled in accordance with the official ruling
of the relevant governing body after the
postponement, subject to i. and ii. below, so
long as the ruling is made within 90 days after
the scheduled completion date:
unless the outcome has unequivocally
been determined prior to the
interruption of the season - example
Team A were prior to the postponement
unable to win more than x regular season
games, bets on over x games will be
settled as a loser and bets on under x
wins settled as winners;
Where the competition format has
materially changed after the
postponement and any outcome that was
prior to the postponement possible is no
longer made possible due to the format
change - example Team B were
mathematically able to make playoffs
prior to the postponement however a new
playoff format announced after the
postponement prevented any opportunity
to make playoffs, all bets on Team B to
make and miss playoffs will be void.
Where a league/ governing body
officially suspends a season and rules
for recording purposes that all stats
are final on the shortened season,
futures will be settled in accordance
with the official ruling. If deemed
completed by the relevant governing
body, winners will be settled as so, and
remaining selections void unless the
outcome has unequivocally been
determined prior to the suspension of
the season or stated by the relevant
governing body:
Example: 2019/20 NHL Regular
season points: Detroit Red Wings
Over/Under 74.5 points settled
as Under 74.5 as the winning
selection. Result fully
determined prior to season
suspension ( Detroit Red Wings
on 39 points prior to
suspension. Only 24 points on
offer if season was to resume
thus result fully determined as
Under 74.5).
Example: 2019/20 NHL Regular
season points: Boston Bruins
Over/Under 100.5 points. Boston
Bruins had recorded 100 points
prior to season suspension.
Result undetermined if season
wasn’t to resume and thus
voided.
Example: 2019/20 Rocket Richard
Trophy. Ovechkin/Pastrnak
settled as winners and all other
selections settled as losers.
Both players leading prior to
season suspension and ruled as
winners and deemed completed as
per governing body.
Bets on markets that don’t reach
completion before the interruption but have
already been unconditionally determined will be
settled as such. For example, if a team is
mathematically eliminated from playoffs prior to
the interruption then bets on them to miss the
playoffs are winners whereas bets on them to
make the playoffs or win the Championship are
losers.
If the ruling governing body announces within 90
days of the original scheduled completion date,
the rescheduling of a tournament or competition
all bets on the original competition will remain
active. At the customer’s request, the
FanDuel Sportsbook will void bets made on the
originally scheduled tournament or competition
but only before the start of the rescheduled
competition. In the event that no official
ruling is made postponing the competition or
tournament within 90 days of the original
scheduled completion date all bets will be void.
Example: Euro 2020 Soccer Tournament has
been rescheduled to take place in 2021
all bets prior to the postponing will
remain active unless a customer contacts
to void the bet prior to the start of
the tournament in 2021.
Example: There is no announcement from
the International Tennis Federation by
September 5, 2020 on the rescheduling of
the 2020 French Open, all futures bets
on the French Open 2020 will be void.
Some markets have different rules and these are
listed in the Specific Sports Rules. However,
where a market has no rules in the Specific
Sports Rules in relation to an abandonment,
cancellation and/or postponement the following
shall apply.
In relation to any
match, fixture, game, individual event,
race or similar
: If the event is not completed within 48 hours
after the scheduled completion date, then all
bets on markets for this event will be void,
except for bets on any markets that have been
unconditionally determined. All bets on an event
that is officially deemed a forfeit will be
void.
In relation to any
tournament, competition or similar: If
the event is not completed within 24 hours
following the scheduled completion date of the
event, then any markets relating to the event
will be settled in accordance with the official
ruling of the relevant governing body, providing
such a decision is given within 90 days after
the scheduled completion date. If no official
ruling is announced in this 90-day period, then
bets on any market relating to this event will
be void, except for bets on any markets which
have been unconditionally determined. If a
market is to be voided but has been part-settled
as a courtesy to the FanDuel Sportsbook
customers, then such part-settled bets will be
reversed and all bets on the market will be
void.
If there is no further sporting action in any
market that does not contain the selection
‘draw’ or ‘tie’, all
bets placed after this conclusion of action will
be voided (e.g. If the game ends in a draw and
the two selections that are named in the market
are “Team A” and “Team
B” without a “Draw” or
“Tie” selection - the bet on either
Team A or B will be Voided).
The FanDuel Sportsbook will decide (acting
reasonably) whether a market relates to a match
(or similar) or a tournament (or similar).
However, by way of example, the following shall
apply:
Major League Soccer Cup = tournament;
NFL AFC West = tournament;
Ryder Cup outright = tournament;
Golf tournament outright = tournament;
Tennis Tournament outright = tournament;
Motor Race (e.g. Indianapolis 500) =
match;
NBA Finals = match;
NBA Championship = tournament.
Change of venue
Some markets have different rules and these are
listed in the Specific Sports Rules. However, if
change of venue is not dealt with in the
Specific Sports Rules then the following shall
apply:
For any team sport: if the scheduled
venue is changed after a bet is placed,
all bets will be void only if the new
venue is a home ground of the original
away team (or in the case of
international matches, only if the venue
changes to a venue in a different
country).
For all categories or markets other than
team sports: if the scheduled venue is
changed after a bet is placed, all bets
will stand.
If there is a change in the type of
scheduled surface (e.g. a hockey match
switching from grass to astro-turf)
after a bet is placed, all bets will
stand.
Periods of time
Some markets have different rules and these are
listed in the Specific Sports Rules. However, if
not dealt with in the Specific Sports Rules then
the following shall apply.
If the scheduled duration of an event is changed
after a bet is placed but before the start of
the event, then all bets will be void.
Some markets refer to the length of time until
an occurrence in the event (e.g. time of first
goal). If an event happens in stoppage or injury
time after any regular time period then it will
be deemed to have occurred at the end of the
regular time period. For example, if a goal is
scored in first half stoppage-time in a soccer
match it will be deemed to have occurred on 45
minutes.
All bets apply to the relevant full
‘regular time’ period including
stoppage time. Any extra-time and/or penalty
shoot-out is not included.
References within these Rules and Regulations to
a particular number of ‘days’ shall
mean the end of the day local time after the
expiry of the specified number of days. For
example, if a rugby match is scheduled for the
1st of December, then the rule that allows the
match to be completed within 48 hours after the
scheduled completion date (see Paragraph 3
above) would mean that the deadline for
completion of that match would be 11:59:59 p.m.
on the 4th of December.
To qualify markets
Some markets have different rules and these are
listed in the Specific Sports Rules. However, if
not dealt with in the Specific Sports Rules then
the following shall apply.
Any 'to qualify' market (e.g. "to
reach the final" markets) will be
determined by the competitor or team that
progresses, whether or not they take part in the
next round or event for which they have
qualified. Markets will be settled after the
qualifying stage and any subsequent
disqualification or amendment to the result will
not count.
Dead heats
Unless stated otherwise in the Specific Sports
Rules the Dead Heat Rule applies to bets on a
market where there are more winners than
expected.
If a “dead-heat” between two
selections is declared on any event, half the
stake is applied to the selection at full odds
and the other half is lost. If more than two
“dead-heats” are declared, the stake
is proportioned accordingly.
If not otherwise stated as a push settlement, In
the event of a tie, where no 'draw'
option was offered by FanDuel on such outcome,
wagers will be paid at face value of the ticket
(total payout figure including the initial
stake) divided by the number of competitors tied
for that placing. The stake is proportioned
according to the number of competitors tied for
that placing.
For example, $100 placed on Tiger Woods @ +200
to finish top 10. If Tiger ties with four other
competitors for 10th position your wager will be
calculated by dividing your $100 stake five
times as per Rules. Calculation: $20*+200 = $60.
Errors
FanDuel Sportsbook makes every effort to ensure
that it does not make any errors when accepting
bets. However, if as a result of technical or
system problems or human error, a bet is
accepted that is at odds (which includes
handicap provisions or similar) and/or is on
terms that are either:
materially different from those
available in the general betting market
at the time the bet was made; or
clearly incorrect given the chance of
the event occurring at the time the bet
was made including, in either case,
because the bet was placed after the
start of an event, because the market
was not displaying or reflecting in-play
status, or because of any other reason,
then the FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the
right to either (i) correct any obvious
errors by settling winning bets at the
‘correct price,’ as
reasonably determined by FanDuel
Sportsbook, or (ii) void any bet placed
where such errors have occurred.
If FanDuel Sportsbook accepts a bet on a market
for which the outcome has already been
determined, then that bet shall be deemed void
(and no winnings shall be payable in respect of
it).
If FanDuel Sportsbook accepts a bet on a market
where the incorrect teams are listed and/or
listed in the incorrect order (i.e. Home Team
listed as Away) FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the
right to void such wagers, regardless of the
outcome of the event.
Duplicate Events
In the event that odds for the same exact game
are displayed on the FanDuel Sportsbook more
than once (regardless of whether the markets are
related and/or displayed odds are different),
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to cancel
any correlated parlay bets placed on
both/multiple events, regardless of whether the
markets and/or displayed odds are different.
Single Bets placed individually on the above
markets will be settled in accordance with
official results.
Maximum winnings
For all events listed below, the maximum payout
limits apply on a per day basis. If you place a
bet that exceeds the applicable limits for a
particular event, the relevant maximum payouts
will still apply.
The maximum payout limits refer to the total
returns on your bets, excluding your original
stake.
The maximum payout limits apply to any one
customer or group of customers acting together,
backing the same combination of selections,
regardless of whether or not such bets are
struck separately, at a range of different
prices, on different days and through a number
of different accounts. If the FanDuel Sportsbook
believes that a number of bets have been placed
in this way, the total payment of all those bets
combined will be limited to one single maximum
payout.
The maximum payouts shown below are shown in
U.S. Dollars. If bets are placed in another
currency, the maximum payout will be converted
using the applicable exchange rate on the day of
settlement of the bets.
The following maximum payout limits will apply
to the events shown (please note, if a
multiple/parlay bet has been placed which
involves events with different maximum payout
limits, the lowest applicable maximum payout
limit will apply to the whole of your parlay bet
- for example, if you place a parlay bet on
English Premier League football matches and on a
PGA Tour golf tournament, your winnings will be
capped at $500,000 and not $1,000,000).
For games in which we offer Same Game Parlay,
the maximum payout will be equal to the overall
maximum payout of the event involved, outlined
in each sport’s subsection below:

Overall Maximum Daily Payout Limit: Subject
to any lower limits that may apply in
respect of any particular event (as set out
above), the overall maximum daily payout
limit to any customer for all winning bets
placed on the Sportsbook products combined
is $1,000,000. If you place winning bets on
those products that exceed this daily limit,
your winnings will be reduced to $1,000,000
and the remainder of your winnings in excess
of $1,000,000 will be forfeited by you.
Parlays
A parlay bet consists of a number of legs. A leg
is defined as one or more chosen selections in
any individual event market.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right in its
sole discretion not to accept certain multiple
bets or to scale back stakes.
All parlay bets placed are subject to the
Sportsbook Rules that apply to each individual
sport that relates to any leg of any parlay bet.
If any selection in any leg is a non-runner or
otherwise void under the Sportsbook Rules (e.g.
an abandoned match) then all bets on that
individual leg will be void and the parlay bet
shall be adjusted accordingly. For example a
treble including one void leg will become a
double. If that voided leg means that an
individual bet within a parlay becomes a single
bet, then this single bet will stand.
Odds Boosts that include parlay bets are subject
to the Odds Boost settlement rules set forth in
Section 21 below.
Parlay bets combining different selections
within the same event are not accepted when
there are related contingencies (i.e. where the
outcome of one event is likely to affect the
odds on the outcome of another event). The
rejection of related contingency bets may happen
automatically at the bet placement stage.
However, if such a bet is taken in error,
FanDuel Sportsbook may settle the individual bet
combinations which include two or more of the
related contingency selections, as single bets.
Teasers
In the event one teaser leg resulting in a push
or void, the following settlement will take
place:
Two Team Teaser: the entire teaser is
voided and the bet will be refunded.
Any other Teaser: the teaser has action
and the teaser payout will be
recalculated removing the voided or push
legs.
Cash Out
Cash Out is a feature which is offered on
various singles and multiples FanDuel Sportsbook
bets. Cash Out allows you to amend your original
bet and lock in a profit or a loss by settling
your bet (or a portion of your bet) early,
without having to wait for the event to finish.
If you make a Cash Out request, you will be
notified whether or not your request has been
successful. Your request to Cash Out is not
guaranteed to be accepted and may be
unsuccessful if, for example, the market
suspends or the odds move before your request
has been processed.
If your Cash Out request is successful, a
‘success’ message will be shown and
your bet (or the relevant portion of your bet)
will be settled immediately and any winnings
returned to your account equal to the amount
shown on the Cash Out button. Note that this
includes the original stake (or portion of your
stake) and the total amount returned to your
account will be the amount shown on the Cash Out
button. For a full Cash Out, the bet is settled
and any subsequent events will have no impact on
the amount returned to your account. For a
partial Cash Out, part of your bet is settled
and any subsequent events will only impact on
the portion of your bet which you have not
Cashed Out.
If your Cash Out request is unsuccessful, a
message will be shown which gives the reason why
and a new Cash Out offer may be offered to you.
Cash Out requests made in-play may take longer
to process because of the in-play bet delay.
Cash Out is not currently available on all
FanDuel Sportsbook markets - a Cash Out icon
will be displayed for the markets that support
Cash Out. See the Help page for more details on
when Cash Out may not be available. FanDuel
Sportsbook will not be liable for any losses
that may arise from the cash out feature being
unavailable for any reason.
Using Cash Out may mean you will opt out of and
no longer be eligible for a particular
promotion. See the terms and conditions of the
promotion for further details.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to reverse
the settlement of a Cash Out if the bet or a
market is settled in error (for example, a human
or technical error). If FanDuel Sportsbook
resettles a bet, this may lead to amendments
being made to a customer's balance to
reflect changes in bet settlement. If an
incorrect Cash Out offer is presented to a
customer and then accepted due to a technical
fault, FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right to
resettle the bet using the correct Cash Out
offer.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserve the right to suspend
or disable the Cash Out feature at any time.
Odds Boosts
Any bets for which we offer Odds Boosts will be
settled on the basis of normal time and injury
time (i.e. excluding any extra time, penalties
or similar) unless otherwise specified in the
relevant bet or bet rules
Unless otherwise stated, bets for which Odds
Boosts are offered will be governed by FanDuel
Sportsbook’s usual settlement rules.
We reserve the right to void any bet with an
Odds Boosts if: (i) the enhanced price was
intended to apply to pre-match bets only and
(ii) we erroneously accepted the bet, at its
enhanced price, after the relevant event
started.
For Odds Boost parlays, if any selection in any
leg is a non-runner or otherwise void under the
Sportsbook House Rules then the entire Odds
Boost bet will be void regardless of the outcome
of other selections in the parlay.
In the event of a clear and obvious wording or
pricing error for an enhanced bet, we will (in
accordance with our usual settlement rules) aim
to settle the bet at the price at which we
intended to offer, and/or pursuant to the
wording which was clearly intended to relate to,
the relevant bet
We reserve the right to withdraw any Odds Boosts
and edit the respective odds on the enhanced
price.
Unless stated in the Odds Boost, the bets refer
to the next official event that the listed
team/participant(s) are scheduled to participate
in.
Markets can tend to fluctuate in price quite
often which can sometimes lead to the Odds Boost
price not representing any enhanced value in
comparison to its original markets.
Miscellaneous
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right in its
sole discretion not to accept certain Sportsbook
bets, or to scale back the stakes (on a per user
or aggregate basis).
All references to time periods in the Sportsbook
Rules relate to the time zone in which the event
takes place. For example, a reference to the
start time of a football game, relates to the
local kick-off time.
All information supplied by FanDuel Sportsbook
is done so in good faith. However, FanDuel
Sportsbook cannot accept liability for any
errors or omissions in respect of any
information, such as the posting of prices,
runners, times, scores, results or general
statistics.
Any results or scores of which you may be
advised by a FanDuel Sportsbook employee or
agent (for example during betting in-play) are
provided for guidance purposes only.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that they
satisfy themselves that the selection on which
they place a bet is their intended selection.
For example, in the case of a competitor bearing
the same name as another individual not
competing in the relevant event, the onus is on
the customer to ensure that they know which
competitor is being referred to in the relevant
market and to ensure that they are placing their
bet on their chosen competitor.
Please be aware that if you place related or
corresponding bets on a combination of FanDuel
Sportsbook’s platforms (and/ or the
betting products of other third parties), it is
possible for bets on one product to be voided in
accordance with FanDuel Sportsbook’s terms
and conditions, while bets on another product
may stand. You should note that FanDuel
Sportsbook will have no liability to you in the
event that one or more of your bets on FanDuel
Sportsbook’s products are amended or
voided in accordance with FanDuel
Sportsbook’s terms and conditions, even if
your other related bets stand (and even if you
have specifically relied on bets you have placed
on one product in order to place related bets on
another product).
FanDuel Sportsbook may, in its sole and absolute
discretion, decide to suspend betting on a
market at any time (even if such suspension is
earlier than anticipated by the Sportsbook
Rules). In the interests of maintaining
integrity and fairness in the markets, FanDuel
Sportsbook may also void certain bets in a
market or void a whole market in its entirety.
FanDuel Sportsbook promotions are available at
the discretion of FanDuel Sportsbook and FanDuel
Sportsbook reserves the right to restrict the
availability of a promotion to any person at its
absolute discretion.
FanDuel Sportsbook reserves the right, at our
discretion, to perform any and all reasonable
investigations on customers for the purpose of
verifying information about customers such as
source of funds, background history, and
creditworthiness.

the draft position that comes
after the last drafted player.
For over/under draft position
markets under means the player
is chosen with a pick that is
less than the designated number
and over would be after that
designated number, for example a

lineman for settlement purposes.

independent and not belonging to
any conference for settlement
purposes.
Futures/Season Prop Bets:
Bets will be settled based on
official results provided by the

unequivocally determined. Any
forfeited game that is
considered an official result
will count towards season long
bets.
For season long player prop bets
and player award bets, the
nominated player must be
involved in at least one snap
during the regular season game

the entire period must be played
for bets to stand.
Match betting:
Overtime counts. In the event of
a tie following overtime, all
stakes are refunded.

being exactly the nominated
line, all stakes are refunded
unless a price for the exact
amount is quoted.
For quarter and half betting,
the entire period must be played
for bets to stand.
First offensive play yard line:
The result is determined by
where the first offensive play
from scrimmage takes place.
In the event of the kick off
being returned for a touchdown,
bets stand for the first
offensive play following the
subsequent kick off.
In the event of a turnover, the
result is determined on where
the first offensive play takes
place with respect to the
receiving team’s yard
line.
Next Drive Result:
“Other” includes
turnovers, defensive touchdowns
and safeties.
If the clock runs out, the
winning bet is
“Other”
First Play Attempt of Drive:

the league’s governing
body.
Bets will be void if there is
neither a pass or rush attempt.

attempt.
Ball Cross 50 Yard Line on Drive:

the league’s governing
body.

specified period. Quarter and
half markets are settled as per
our standard settlement
practices.
First Penalty:
This is settled on the first
accepted penalty in the game
First turnover and first team to commit
a turnover:
For grading purposes, only an
interception or a fumble counts.
A punt or 'turnover on
downs' does not qualify as
a turnover for settlement
purposes.
In the event of an abandoned
game, stakes are returned unless
a turnover has already taken
place.
First offensive play:
In the event of a false start
penalty on the first offensive
play, bets stand for the next
offensive play that takes place
without a false start penalty
First team/last team to score and
touchdown scorer markets:
In the event of an abandoned
game, bets stand on scores that
have taken place already (and
overtime counts for these
markets).
Touchdown scorers are offered
with the option of others on
request. Markets are considered
All-In.
Only when a player does not play
a snap in that game are the
selections voided.
For touchdown scorer markets,
the winning selection is the
player who possesses the ball in
the endzone. For example - on a
pass TD play, the receiver in
the endzone is graded as the
winner, not the QB.
For settlement purposes,
"Team Defense"
selections do not include
Special Teams.
Athletics
Where there is a presentation ceremony, markets
will be settled on the official result of the
relevant governing body at the time of the
ceremony, regardless of any subsequent
disqualification or amendment to the result.
Should markets be settled prior to the official
presentation ceremony, FanDuel Sportsbook
reserves the right to resettle markets in
accordance with the presentation ceremony.
If there is no presentation ceremony, outcomes
will be determined in accordance with the
official result of the relevant governing body,
regardless of any subsequent disqualification or
amendment to the result (except if an amendment
is announced within 24 hours of the initial
settlement of the relevant market in order to
correct an error in reporting the result).
If a track or field event is abandoned,
cancelled or postponed and not completed within
7 days of the scheduled completion date, all
bets will be void except for those on markets
which have been unconditionally determined.
Overall winner markets relate to the winner of
the overall event and not for individual
qualifiers or heats. As 'Any Other
Athlete' is NOT quoted, non-featured
athletes will be added to this market on
request. Once 'Any Other Athlete' is
listed, no further athletes will be added.
Australian Rules
Payouts will be based on the official declared
result. Regular season Home and Away matches are
settled at 'Normal Time' with no extra
time played. In the event of a 'draw'
where no draw option is offered the Sportsbook
will apply the 'dead heat rule' and
all wagers will be paid at half face value of
the ticket. For any Finals matches or any other
Competition which includes extra time, markets
will be settled on the completion of extra time,
unless the draw is offered in the market.
Where the draw option is offered, the bet is
decided on the result at the end of normal time
(i.e. extra time - an extension of normal time
is not included.) For Margin betting, the Draw
option is always offered, although in other
betting options where the draw option is not
offered, The Dead Heat Rule applies. In Quarter
by Quarter markets for the purposes of betting
the 'Draw at the end of any Quarter'
market is one competitor only. Tribets are
settled as any team under in the case of a draw
when no extra time is played.
Where a match is postponed from its original
scheduled date, if the game is played within 48
hours of its original time, all bets will stand.
Otherwise, bets will be void.
If a game starts but is abandoned and not
completed within 24 hours, the following rules
will apply. Markets will be settled on the
official result if one is determined by the AFL.
In the case where no official result is
declared, bets unequivocally determined will be
settled accordingly, while all other bets will
be void
If the venue of a match is changed from the one
advertised, all bets on the match will still
have action (provided the match is not also
postponed by more than 48 hours)
For match winners and goal kicking options,
statistics used by the AFL website
(www.afl.com.au) will be the statistics used for
payout purposes. For 1st Goal Scorer (Game/1st
Quarter only), if the selected player is not in
the starting 22 all wagers on that selection
will be refunded. For bets on first goalscorer
of the match, goal doesn't need to be
scored in 1st quarter. For quarter first goal
scorer markets, if no goal in that quarter then
bets refunded.
Premiership/Minor Premiership/Make Grand Final:
All In Betting. Any team which has points
deducted due to breaches of rules and
regulations will be deemed a starter for
resulting purposes. Any loss of
Awards/Premierships after the completion of the
Grand Final will be deemed null and void and all
bets will stand.
Top 4/Top 8: For Betting purposes any team which
has points deducted due to breaches of rules and
regulations will be deemed a starter for
resulting purpose i.e. All In Any decision made
by the AFL regarding penalties is final.
Least Wins (Wooden Spoon): is paid on the team
which has the least wins for the season. A draw
is considered as half a win. In the event of
more than one team having the same number of
wins the position will be determined by the
worst % as per official AFL Ladder. Points
deducted because of breaches of rules and
regulations are excluded for resulting purposes.
All In. Win Only
Miss 4/Miss 8: For betting purposes any team
which has points deducted due to breaches of
rules and regulations will be deemed a starter.
If at the time a breach is announced, the loss
of points means only one outcome can occur (ie
Miss the 8 must occur) then all bets on that
competitor are void and monies refunded. All
decisions made by the AFL regarding penalties
are final.
Baseball
General Rules
These rules apply to Major League, all
levels of Minor League, NCAA and World
Baseball. World Baseball is defined as a
league which is governed outside of the
United States.
All wagers are graded based on the
official results published by the
relevant league’s governing body
(e.g. Major League Baseball).
In the event of a game not starting on
the officially scheduled day, as
published by the governing body, due to
a rain delay or other deferral, all
wagers shall be void. The day of the
event is defined as the day according to
the time zone in which the event was
scheduled to begin. If a game that has
started is suspended, due to a rain
delay or other deferral, and resumes
within 36 hours of the originally
scheduled start time (local time), then
all wagers will stand. If a game that
has started is suspended, and resumes
more than 36 hours after the originally
scheduled start time, all existing
wagers will be void unless they have
been unequivocally determined prior to
the game’s suspension.
Ex: A game is scheduled to be played on
Saturday evening. Here are how
settlement rules would be impacted by
different types of deferrals:
The game is postponed prior to first
pitch and is rescheduled to begin at a
future date. Since the game had not yet
started, all wagers on the game will be
void, regardless of when the game is
rescheduled to be played
In the event that a game is halted but
scheduled to be completed the following
day, all wagers will stand as the event
is due to resume within 36 hours of the
original start time.
In the event that a game is halted and
scheduled to resume more than 36 hours
after the original scheduled start time,
all wagers shall be void unless they had
unequivocally been determined prior to
the game’s suspension.
In the event of a shortened game,
results are official after (and, unless
otherwise stated, bets shall be settled
subject to the completion of) 5 innings
of play, or 4.5 innings should the home
team be leading at the commencement of
the bottom of the 5th innings (the
“4.5 Innings Rule”). Once
the visiting team has made 15 outs,
should a game be called early and the
home team is leading, the results of the
game will be determined by the score at
the time the game is called. Should a
game be called early while it is tied or
amid an inning in which the visiting
team has taken the lead, the game
becomes a “suspended game”
and is handled according to the
aforementioned rules surrounding
suspended games.
Notwithstanding the above, in certain
circumstances where we so specify,
results will only be official after (and
bets shall be settled subject to the
completion of) a minimum of 9
innings’ play, or 8.5 innings
should the home team be leading at the
commencement of the bottom of the 9th
innings (the “8.5 Innings
Rule”).
For the purposes of live betting, the
8.5 Innings Rule shall automatically
apply unless stated otherwise - e.g., in
the section below entitled
“Overview of Specific Baseball
Markets” (which shall take
precedence over this section). However,
should a game be shortened due to bad
weather or similar, live betting markets
which have been unequivocally determined
will stand (irrespective of the 8.5
Innings Rule or whether or not an
official league result has been
confirmed).
Extra innings, where applicable, count
for settlement purposes.
In the case of a suspended
playoff/post-season game, all bets will
stand until the game is completed within
90 days of suspension.
Should a mercy rule be applied, for
settlement purposes, markets (for both
pre-match and live betting) will be
settled according to the result as
determined by the application of the
mercy rule. For baseball games scheduled
to be 7 innings, normal baseball rules
will apply with all markets settled as
per the official result published by the
relevant league’s governing body
and in accordance with the below listed
rules:
Money Line bets will be settled
as per the “4.5 Innings
Rule”;
Bets on markets that are
unequivocally determined will
stand (example: bets on 1st
inning total runs scored will
remain settled as determined if
the game gets called in the 3rd
inning);
All other markets (including but
not limited to Run Line and
Total Runs) will be void if not
already unequivocally
determined, unless a minimum of
7 innings are played, or 6.5
innings should the home team be
leading at the commencement of
the bottom of the 7th inning.
The above listed rules will
govern settlement of all
scheduled 7 inning games,
including any that are shortened
after first pitch.
Action vs. Listed Pitchers
When wagering on baseball Money Lines,
you may choose to apply one of the
following methods to each wager:
Action: All Money Line wagers are
defaulted to “Action”
meaning all wagers struck will stand if
a pitcher change occurs. Wagers will be
honored at the odds at bet placement and
settled as normal.
One Specified Pitcher (Home Listed/Away
Listed): A wager on or against one
Listed Pitcher, regardless of the other
Listed Pitcher. In the event that the
Listed Pitcher does not start, the wager
is “No Action” and will be
refunded. Non-refunded wagers will be
honored at the odds at bet placement and
settled as normal.
Both Specified Pitchers: A wager in
which both Listed Pitchers must start
the game. If both actual starting
pitchers are not the ones listed on the
wagering ticket, the wager will be
deemed “No Action” and
refunded. Non-refunded wagers will be
honored at the odds at bet placement and
settled as normal.
All other game markets are considered
“Action” and wagers will
remain open regardless of any personnel
change. Wagers will be settled at the
odds at bet placement.
Listed Pitchers are not relevant to
World Baseball markets and bets on such
markets will stand regardless of whether
any Listed Pitchers do in fact start.
Should a game end in a tie, Money Line
wagers will be graded as a push with all
other markets settled as per the result.
Player Props
For all MLB player markets, wagers will
be void as per below (unless explicitly
stated in market specific rules):
Pitcher Markets: If the listed pitcher
does NOT start the game.
Batter Markets (Hits, Runs, etc.): if
the listed player does NOT record a
plate appearance.
To Hit a Home Run & Home Run / Game
Winner Parlay: Listed players must
record at least 1 plate appearance for
bets to stand (failing which, in each
case, bets on this market will be
voided). Listed pitchers have no bearing
on this market.
Result of Plate Appearance: Listed
players must record at least one plate
appearance for bets to stand (failing
which, in each case, bets on this market
will be voided). In the event that a
player is substituted out of the game
between plate appearances, bets on plate
appearances that have already occurred
will stand. However, bets on future
plate appearance markets will be voided.
For settlement purposes, a
fielder’s choice, catcher’s
interference and hit by pitch (HBP) will
all be ruled as an “other
outcome.”
To Hit First Home Run: Listed position
players must record at least one plate
appearance for bets to stand (failing
which, in each case, bets on this market
will be voided). If a non-listed player
is ruled the winner, bets on listed
qualified players are action. All bets
will be voided if no Home Runs are hit
in the game.
To Hit Next Home Run: Listed position
players must record at least one plate
appearance for bets to stand (failing
which, in each case, bets on this market
will be voided). Once a player has
recorded a plate appearance, wagers made
on that player for all subsequent
indices (Player to Hit 3rd Home Run, 4th
Home Run, etc.) will stand regardless of
the number of plate appearances that
player ultimately records in the game.
In the event there is no “Next
Home Run”, all bets placed on that
index will be void. Example: Wagers
placed on “Player to hit 4th Home
Run” market will be void in a game
where only 3 Home Runs are hit.
Player to Record a Hit Markets: Listed
players must record at least one plate
appearance for bets to stand (failing
which, in each case, bets on this market
will be voided). Once a player has
recorded a plate appearance, bets on all
subsequent hits markets (2+ hits, 3+
hits, etc.) will stand regardless of the
number of plate appearances that player
ultimately records in the game.
To Record Total Bases: Total Bases are
recorded through hits. They do not
include walks, HBPs, reach on errors, or
fielder's choices.
Player Total Strikeouts: Listed Pitcher
must start for bet to stand. If opposing
Listed Pitcher does not start, then bets
will still stand.
Player Performance Parlays: For
pitchers, the listed pitcher must start
for bets to stand. Bets will stand
regardless of a change in status to the
opposing listed pitcher. For batters,
the listed player must record at least 1
plate appearance for bets to stand
(failing which, in each case, bets on
this market will be voided). A change to
the status of either listed pitcher will
have no bearing on the settlement of any
batter-specific player parlay.
Result of First Pitch: Settled based on
the first pitch thrown in the listed
half inning. A change to the status of
either listed pitcher, or to either
line-up, will have no bearing on the
settlement of this market. For
settlement purposes, a reach on error,
catcher’s interference, or a foul
ball that results in an out will be
ruled as an “other outcome.”
Batted balls that result in the plate
appearance ending (ex. hits/outs) will
not be regarded as strikes for the
purposes of settlement.
Method of First Hit: Settled based on
the method by which the first hit of the
game (for either team) occurs. A change
to the status of either listed pitcher
will have no bearing on the settlement
of this market. Listed batters must be
included in the starting line-up for
bets to stand (failing which, in each
case, bets will be voided).
Futures Markets + Other Specials
Regular Season Win Totals: A team must
play at least 98% of games originally
scheduled (as of Opening Day of the
regular season) for bets to stand,
unless the outcome has previously been
unequivocally determined. For example,
in a shortened 60 game season, at least
59 games must be played for bets to
stand (unless previously unequivocally
determined). In a 162 game season, 159
games must be played for bets to stand
(unless previously unequivocally
determined).
Regular Season Specials: All other
regular season specials, unless
otherwise stated, will be settled should
teams play at least 50% of regular
season games originally scheduled (as of
Opening Day of the regular season).
Dead-heat rules apply if multiple
players tie for the league lead. In the
event that less than 50% of regular
season games are played (as scheduled on
Opening Day of the regular season), all
regular season specials bets (unless
otherwise stated) will be void
regardless of if they have been
determined or not. Where a specified
player is listed under a market
pertaining to a certain league/team, he
will be deemed a player in that
league/team for the purpose of the
result regardless of any
inter-league/team trade which may occur.
Daily Strikeout Specials: For
head-to-head strikeout matchups, both
listed pitchers must start the game for
bets on the matchup to stand. If the two
listed pitchers record the same number
of strikeouts, bets on the matchup will
be voided. For daily specials about
which listed pitcher will record the
most strikeouts on a given day, bets on
any listed pitcher that does not start
will be voided, and dead-heat rules will
apply if multiple starting pitchers tie
for the daily lead.
Regular Season Series Winner: Games must
be played within the originally
scheduled series dates to be counted
towards series settlement. Series bets
will be void if affected by
postponed/rescheduled games that take
place after the originally scheduled
series end date unless the outcome has
been unequivocally determined prior to
the interruption of the series. For
series’ scheduled to be an even
number of games (e.g. a four game
series), either two-way betting or
three-way betting (with “Series
Tied” as a third possible
selection) may be available. If two-way
betting is available, bets on that
market will be void if the teams split
the series. If three-way betting is
available, bets on the “Series
Tied” option will be ruled as
winners if the teams split the series.
Playoff Series Specials: Dead-heat rules
apply if multiple players tie for lead.
Applies to outright markets such as
“Player to Record Most
Hits”, “Player to Record
Most Home Runs” etc.
Live Specials: An official no-hit game
occurs when a pitcher (or pitchers)
allows no hits during the entire course
of a game, which consists of at least
nine innings (minimum 27 outs) thrown by
the pitcher(s). For a perfect game, the
pitcher(s) must comply with all
requirements of the no-hitter, but also
not allow any baserunners to reach via
walk, HBP, uncaught third strikes,
catcher’s or fielder’s
interference, or fielding errors.
No-hitters and perfect games will be
settled regardless of the number of
pitchers used by the relevant team. For
live pitcher specials, all bets will
stand if the listed pitcher starts the
game. For live batter specials, all bets
will stand if the listed player records
at least one plate appearance in the
game.
World Series, League and Division
Winners markets will all be settled in
accordance with the official MLB ruling
regardless of season length.
All outright markets include playoffs
where applicable.
Home Run Derby
All wagers are graded based on
the official results published
by mlb.com.
Wagers relating to home run
distances will be resulted
according to the figures
provided by MLB’s
Statcast.
Player Match Bets: If two
contestants are eliminated in
the same stage of the
competition, bets on which
player will advance further will
be void.
MLB Draft
The official draft results on
mlb.com will be used for
settlement purposes.
For “over/under draft
position” markets,
undrafted players are assigned
the draft position that comes
after the last drafted player.
For over/under draft position
markets under means the player
is chosen with a pick that is
less than the designated number
and over would be after that
designated number, for example a
market of ‘Player A
over/under draft position
3.5’, if Player A is
picked with the second pick of
the draft than under bets would
win and over bets lose.

the final score as per the 8.5 Innings
rule.
Tri-Bet Markets: Settled as per the 8.5

completed). When packaged in a parlay,
the 8.5 Innings Rule applies. Includes
extra innings.
Team to Score Last Markets: Settled as
per the 8.5 Innings Rule. Includes extra
innings.
Highest Scoring Half of Game: Inclusive
of extra innings, settled as per the 8.5

innings). For example, if 11 innings are
played, the first “half” of
the game shall be deemed to be the first
5 innings and the second
“half” of the game shall be
deemed to be the last 6 innings.
Highest Scoring Inning: Settled as per
the 8.5 Innings Rule. Dead heat rules
apply in the event of a tie. Should the
highest scoring inning occur in extra

only on runs scored in that specific
inning. For example, if entering the 5th

“0-0” would be correctly
settled as the winning selection.
3 / 5 / 7 Inning Markets: The specified
number of innings must be completed for
bets to stand (unless the home team
holds the lead and the bottom of the
inning would not change the result for
team specific markets).
1st Half Markets: Settled following the
completion of 5 Innings. The 4.5 Innings
Rule applies for shortened games where
the results of markets have already been
fully determined. If a game has extra

based on the score at the end of the
specified period or once the required
number of runs have been scored (as
applicable).

winning selection should the two teams
combine to record 2 or more hits in the
first inning of play.
For settlement purposes, the team listed
second in the event name is considered
to be the home team (even if the game
takes place at a neutral venue).

or “Team A at Team B”, Team
B is the home team.

Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts
Boxing
General Boxing Rules:
Results will be based on the
official result at ringside with
the exception of a technical
draw (the rules for which are
set out in the “Technical
Decision / Draw” section
below).
Results are not official for
betting purposes until verified
by officials at the fighting
venue. If for some reason
official verification does not
occur at the fighting venue,
then (and only then) will
reference will be made to
www.boxrec.com for settlement
purposes. Should an official or
unofficial sanctioning body
overturn a fight decision based
on an appeal, suspension,
lawsuit, drug testing result or
any other fighter sanction, this
will not be recognized for
betting purposes.
Should a contest be postponed,
bets will stand if the
rescheduled event occurs within
48 hours. Otherwise, all bets in
relation to the contest will be
void.
In the event of a 'no
contest' being declared,
all bets will be made void, with
the exception of selections
where the outcome has already
been unequivocally determined.
Should there be a substitution
for one of the boxers, bets on
the original contest will be
void, except in a tournament
based competition where the
equivalent of a Tattersalls Rule
4 deduction may apply (see Prize
Fighter below)
Should there be a change in the
manner in which a contest is
advertised (e.g. a contest
changes from a title fight to a
non-title fight) bets will
stand.
Match Betting markets where no
draw selection is offered will
be made void if the match ends
in a draw.
In fights where the scheduled
number of rounds changes, all
bets will stand unless the
result would be automatically
determined by the change in the
number of rounds (in which case,
such bets will be voided). For
example, if a fight gets changed
from a 12 to a 10 round fight,
bets on rounds 11 and 12 will be
void.
All fights timed for December
31st are potential unconfirmed
fights, if the fight
doesn't take place by this
date then all bets will be void.
Round Betting
Where a boxer fails to answer
the bell for the next round, his
opponent shall be deemed to have
won the contest in the previous
round.
Subject to the following rule,
should, for any reason, the
scheduled number of rounds be
changed before the commencement
of the contest, all round by
round bets will stand.
Notwithstanding the above rule,
should, for any reason, the
scheduled number of rounds be
decreased before the
commencement of the contest, all
round by round bets on the
dropped rounds will be void.
Bets on all the remaining rounds
will stand.
Where a contest finishes before
the completion of the scheduled
number of rounds and, for any
reason, the winner is decided by
the judges' scorecards
(technical decision/technical
draw) then all round bets will
be deemed losers.
If the contest goes to the
scorecards, then all round bets
will be deemed losers.
Where a contest finishes before
the scheduled number of rounds
due to an accidental injury and
the winner is not determined by
the judges’ scorecards,
all bets will be void.
For “Total Rounds”
settlement purposes, 1 minute
and 30 seconds will represent
half a round. For example, for a
bet on “Over 10.5
rounds” to be a winner,
the fight must last beyond 1
minute and 30 seconds in round
11. If the number of rounds for
a fight is changed after this
market has been set then all
bets on this market will be
void.
For “Will the Fight Go the
Distance” (or similarly
titled) markets, should the
scheduled number of rounds
change, this market will be made
void. In the event of a
technical decision, for
settlement purposes, the fight
will have been deemed NOT to
have gone the distance (i.e. the
scheduled number of rounds).
Method of victory
A knockout (KO) occurs when the
boxer does not stand up after a
ten count. Technical knockouts
(TKO) occur when a boxer is
knocked down three times within
the same round and the fight is
stopped or where the referee
steps in to stop the fight when
it is decided that a fighter
cannot safely continue. If a
fighter fails to answer a bell
for the next round then this
will also be deemed a TKO. For
betting purposes, KO/TKO options
also include disqualification
and retirement.
Technical Decision/Draw
If a fight is scheduled for more
than four rounds and, after four
rounds, an accidental foul
occurs which causes an injury
(further to which the referee
stops the fight), the fight will
be deemed to have resulted in a
technical decision in favour of
the boxer who is ahead on the
scorecards at the time the fight
is stopped (and all markets on
the fight will stand).
If the accidental injury /
technical decision occurs during
the first 4 rounds, all bets
will be made void UNLESS the
result of the relevant market
has already been unequivocally
determined or if the
judges’ scorecards are
used to determine an official
winner at ringside.
If an intentional foul causes an
injury and the injury results in
the fight being stopped in a
later round: (i) the injured
boxer will be deemed to have won
by technical decision if he is
ahead on the scorecards and (ii)
the fight will result in a
'technical draw' if
the injured boxer is behind or
even on the score cards (and,
for settlement purposes, the
result of the fight will be
deemed to be a draw).
For betting purposes, betting on
rounds or a group of rounds is
for a fighter to win by KO, TKO,
disqualification or due to the
other fighter retiring during
that round or group of rounds.
In the event of a technical
decision before the end of the
fight, all round bets will be
deemed to be losers.
To Score a Knockdown
For settlement purposes, a
knockdown is defined as a
fighter being KO'd or
receiving a mandatory eight
count (anything deemed a slip by
the referee will not count).
Prizefighter Rules
Match bets will be settled on
the result announced in the
ring. If any result is announced
incorrectly at ringside but is
subsequently corrected then bets
will be settled based on the
corrected winner.
Outright bets will be settled
based on the winning boxer who
lifts the trophy. If a
substitute is introduced during
the tournament, all outright
bets will stand and an outright
price will be quoted for the new
boxer. All outright bets on
boxers who withdraw during the
tournament due to injury or cuts
(having fought on the card) will
be deemed to be losing bets.
Outright bets will be void on
any named boxer who does not
start the tournament. This rule
does not apply to the reserve
fighters.
“Either reserve” (or
similar) may be listed as a
selection for any Prizefighter
tournaments. These selections
are priced on a compete or not
basis and, accordingly, all bets
on these selections will stand
whether or not a reserve fighter
competes.
The equivalent of a
Tattersall’s rule 4
deduction may be applied to any
outright bet where a named
fighter is withdrawn before the
start of the tournament (and an
additional contender added).
Mixed Martial Arts
General
Bets will be settled on the
official result announced in the
ring. Subsequent
appeals/amendments do not affect
settlement (unless the amendment
was made due to human error when
announcing the result).
Should a contest be postponed,
bets will stand if the
rescheduled event occurs within
48 hours. Otherwise, all bets in
relation to the contest will be
void.
Stakes may be refunded before
the original contest if
requested. In the event of a
'no contest', all bets
will be made void.
Should there be a substitution
for one of the fighters, bets on
the original contest will be
void.
All fights timed for December
31st are potential unconfirmed
fights, and if the fight
doesn't take place by this
date then all bets will be void.
Unless otherwise specified, a
Decision victory does not count
towards a winning selection on
bets including ‘Round
3’ (3 Round Fight) or
‘Round 5’ (5 Round
Fight).

disqualification or a ‘no
contest’ being declared on

void, regardless of any
amendments to the result
thereafter.
Round Betting / Total Rounds
If a fighter withdraws in the
period between rounds, the fight
will be deemed to have ended in
the previous round for the
purpose of “Round
Betting” settlement.
For “Total Rounds”
settlement purposes, 2 minutes
and 30 seconds will represent
half a round (if the round lasts
for 5 minutes). For example, for
a bet on “Over 1.5
rounds” to be a winner,
the fight must last beyond 2
minutes and 30 seconds in round
2. If the number of rounds in a
fight is changed after
“Total Rounds”
markets have been set, then all
bets on these markets will be
void.

rounds be changed before the
fight, all “Round
Betting“ bets will be made
void.
Fight of the Night / Submission of the
Night / Performance of the Night

fights finish after the same
amount of time.
Points Handicap

fight goes its scheduled
distance is declared the winner.

then the cumulative scores of
all the judges will be used to
determine the winner. If the
fight is declared a ‘no
contest’, this market will
be void.

determined based on the round in
which the fight ends and the
method of victory. Bets on this
market will be deemed losing
bets if the fight ends in a
decision.

Referee must signal the start of
the specified round in order for
winning settlement of
‘Yes’ selection.

not all scheduled rounds in the

fight is stopped before the end
of the last scheduled round and
a Technical Decision is
declared, the “no”
selection will be the winning
selection and bets on the
“yes” selection will
be losses.
Cricket
General Rules
If a match is curtailed through external
factors and there is no further play,
bets placed on any-in play market once
play has been curtailed will be void
(except bets placed on match betting).
If a match is cancelled before any play
has taken place, then all bets will be
void, unless the match is replayed
within 48 hours of its advertised start
time (in which case the bets will
stand).
If a match venue is changed then bets
already placed will stand providing the
home team is still designated as such.
If the home and away team for a listed
match are reversed then bets placed
based on the original listing will be
void.
General Settlement
All tournament and match markets will be
settled on the basis of the official
tournament results/match scorecards
which are included on the ICC’s
official website. If there is no result
available, then the website
www.cricinfo.com will be used for
settlement purposes.
A batsman that retires from an innings
will not be considered as a wicket for
settlement purposes.
The term "innings reaching its
natural conclusion" refers to an
innings which has not been closed due to
external factors such as rain or bad
light. A team being bowled out or
declaring is considered to constitute
the natural conclusion of an innings.
If the concussion rule is activated
while a player is batting, all markets
relating to that player will be settled
based on that player being 'retired
hurt'. If the concussion rule is
activated prior to that player batting
or bowling, they will be void from
relevant markets.
Limited Overs Matches
Match bets will be settled according to
the winner as determined by official
competition rules (including where
matches are shortened due to adverse
weather conditions or are decided by a
bowl off) unless the winner is
determined by the toss of a coin or the
drawing of lots (in which case all match
bets will be void).
If a match is tied and the official
competition rules do not determine a
winner, bets on the outright result will
be void unless the outcome is settled by
a bowl off or super over (in which case
the result of the bowl off or super over
will stand for match betting). If the
competition rules determine the winner
by the toss of a coin, drawing of lots
or higher seeding resulting from a
previous round then bets will be void.
Test Matches
If a match is abandoned due to weather
before a ball has been bowled then all
bets will be void.
If a match is tied or abandoned for any
reason other than weather then bets on
the outright result will be void.
If a match for which we did not offer a
price for the draw ends in a draw then
bets on the match result will be void.
If either side forfeits their first
innings then all bets specifically
relating to the first innings will be
void.
Series Betting
When the full number of scheduled
matches is not played then we reserve
the right to void any specialty markets
which relate to the series as a whole.
If a series for which we did not offer a
price for the draw ends in a draw then
bets on the series result will be void.
Team Total Runs
If a team's innings in a test match
or county championship match lasts less
than sixty overs due to external factors
then bets on this market will be void.
This does not apply if the innings has
reached its natural conclusion.
For limited overs matches, this market
will be settled on the final score
achieved by the batting side including
any extras or penalty runs awarded
during the innings. Should there be a
reduction in the scheduled overs then
settlement will still apply provided the
reduction is no more than 20% of the
entire innings allocation at the time
the bet was placed (including any overs
the team has already faced). Should the
reduction be greater than 20% then all
bets shall be void regardless of the
final total made by the team. If a team
is due to face less than 10 overs, then
all bets will be void should there be
any reduction in overs whatsoever.
In matches for which we offer betting on
the Team Total Runs for both teams, all
bets placed on the second innings runs
will stand regardless of the score
achieved by the side batting first,
provided neither team’s innings is
reduced by more than 20% of the entire
innings allocation (including any overs
already bowled when the bet was placed).

accordance with the official result of
the relevant governing body, regardless

relevant market in order to correct an
error in reporting the result).
Dead Heats apply for all golf markets in
the event of 2 or more players finishing
in the same position, except in the
following situations:
A tie/draw option is offered.
The position is decided by an
official playoff.
Upon a tie in the Tournament
Match Betting market, stakes
will be refunded
Dead heat is a term that describes when
two or more selections finish an event
tied. If a “dead-heat”
between two selections is declared on
any event, half the stake is applied to
the selection at full odds and the other
half is lost. If more than two
“dead-heats” are declared,
the stake is proportioned accordingly.
For example:
You bet $100 at odds of
+200 and 2 players tie
for the same position.
Half the stake
is lost -$50
The other half
wins and is paid
at the same
odds. So $50
wins at +200
If 3 players tie for the
same position then:
Two thirds of
the stake is
lost -$66.66
The remaining
third $33.33
wins at +200
If a player does not start a tournament
then all bets on that player will be
void.
A player must play 3 holes in a market
for bets to stand. If a player withdraws
before finishing the 3rd hole, they will
be considered as having not played and
all bets on the player will be voided.
If a tournament is shortened and FanDuel
Sportsbook settles the tournament
markets then all bets matched after the
last completed round will be void.
If a Tournament/Round is restarted from
the beginning, all bets placed after the
official off time will be void, except
on markets which have been
unconditionally determined, which will
stand. Bets on 2 or 3 balls will only be
void if matched after the tee time of
the relevant 2 or 3 ball.
In the event of a postponed event, bets
will stand provided the tournament takes
place in the same calendar year.
Outright Winner
In the event of a play-off the result of
the play-off will determine the winner
of the tournament.
When more than one player shares the
same lowest score in a tournament and
there is no play-off, bets are settled
by the normal dead heat method. See
Section 12.1 above for dead heat
example.
Any players who withdraw after they have
completed 3 holes or more are considered
as players and are therefore losers,
unless the player takes no more part in
the tournament after the bet is placed.
2/3 Balls
Players must complete 3 holes for bets
to stand.
In 2/3 ball betting the winner will be
the player in the pairing or group with
the lowest score over 18 holes.
Should a player in the 2/3 ball not
tee-off all bets in that 2/3 ball are
void. However should a player retire
during the round after more than 3
holes, he will be deemed to have played.
If a player posts a score but is later
disqualified, all bets will be settled
on the score that the player initially
signs for that round. Signing of the
card is deemed as the weigh-in and
subsequent disqualification or amendment
of result will be ignored for settlement
purposes.
Odds for a tie are offered in 2 ball
betting, therefore in the event of a tie
bets on both players are losers and bets
on the tie are winners. Dead heat rules
apply in the event of a tie in 3 ball
betting. See Section 12.1 for dead heat
example.
Any tournament that applies the
stableford scoring system, the highest
point scorer during the round will be
deemed the winner.
Should all players fail to complete the
round then all bets will be void.
Mythical 2-balls
In 'mythical 2 ball' betting
the player/group with the lowest score
over 18 holes is the winner.
Should a player in the 2 ball
not tee-off all bets in that 2
ball are void. However, if a
player starts his round but
withdraws or is disqualified
during any part of the round he
is deemed to be a loser.
If a player posts a score but is
later disqualified, all bets
will be settled on the score
that the player initially posts
for that round.
If odds for a tie are offered in
mythical 2 ball betting and in
the event of a subsequent tie,
then bets on both players/groups
are losers and bets on the tie
are winners
Any tournament that applies the
stableford scoring system, the
highest point scorer during the
round will be deemed the winner.
End of Round Leader
If 2 or more players tie for the lead
after the round, dead heat rules will
apply. See Section 12.1 above for dead
heat example.
Lead After X Round and Win
Settlement is based on a player
leading after the selected Round
(ties included) and winning the
tournament
All 72 holes must be completed.
In the event of a reduction in
the number of Rounds/Holes
played all bets will be made
void.
Wire to Wire Winner

leading after Rounds 1, 2 and 3
(ties included) and winning the
Tournament.

In the event of a reduction in
the number of Rounds/Holes
played all bets will be made
void.
Top X Finish (Top 5/10/20 etc.)
Dead heat rules apply for settlement of
all Top X markets:
For example:
You bet $100 at odds of
+150 for a player to
finish in the Top 20,
and 5 players finish in
a tie for 19th
Two fifths of
the bet has won
(19th &
20th) and three
fifths have lost
(21st, 22nd and
23rd)
Thus three
fifths of the
stake is lost
(-$60)
Two fifths of
the stake win
and is paid at
the same odds,
thus $40 wins at
+150.
Players must complete 3 holes or
more for bets to stand.
Finishing position is decided by
result posted by the governing
body of that tournament (i.e.
PGA Tour, DP World Tour).
If a player is disqualified,
retires injured or withdraws
they will be deemed to have
finished last.
Should 36 holes (or 54 holes in
the case of a 3 Round cut) not
be completed then all bets on
this market will be void.

disqualified or withdrawn player is
deemed the winner.
If a player withdraws or is disqualified
before the cut is made the other player
is deemed the winner.
In the event of a tie in tournament
match betting, stakes are refunded
Tournament Group Betting
In Tournament group betting the
winner will be the player with the

tournament. Players missing the cut

Players must complete 3 holes or
more for bets to stand.
In the event of a tie in tournament
groups, dead heat rules apply.

being withdrawn prior to the first
round, then the market will be void.
To make/miss the cut
Players who are disqualified or withdraw
before they complete 36 holes (or 54
holes in the case of a 3 Round cut) are
deemed to have missed the cut.
Players who are disqualified or withdraw
after the cut will be deemed to have
made the cut.
If there is more than one cut in a
tournament, settlement will be based on
whether the player has made or missed
the first cut.
Should 36 holes (or 54 holes in the case
of a 3 Round cut) not be completed then
all bets on this market will be void.

Odds Boosts

which involve a player to win a

there is no play-off, the relevant
part of the “Special”
will be settled according to our
normal dead heat rules.
In the event of a play-off, the
result of the play-off will
determine the winner of the
tournament. Even if three or more
contestants take part in a play-off,
such a play-off has, for the
purposes of any
“Oddsboost”, the sole
purpose of determining the winner of
the tournament (meaning that the
relative finishing positions, within
the tournament, of unsuccessful
play-off contestants is not affected
by their placing in the play-off).
Any players who withdraw from a
tournament after they have completed
3 holes or more are considered as
having played in the tournament and,
therefore, any
“Oddsboost” bets placed
on those players will be deemed to
be losing bets.

which involve a player that has
withdrawn before they have completed
3 holes, the bet in question will be
voided in its entirety

involving a player to finish in the
top 5/10/15/20 (or similar) will
(unless otherwise stated) be deemed
successful if the player finishes in
a tie for the last named place. For
example, if a
“Oddsboost” bet is
placed on a player to finish in the
top 10 and the player finishes in
tied 10th position, the
“Oddsboost” bet will be
settled as a winning bet.
Tourney Specials Bets
The rules in this sub-section apply
specifically to the settlement of
any golf bets which are placed via
Tourney Specials tab in Golf. All
other settlement rules which are
included in this "Golf
Rules" section or elsewhere on
this website (including in Fanduel
and Regulations) will also apply to
the settlement of Specials bets
unless they contradict, or conflict
with, those included in this
sub-section (in which case, the
rules in this sub-section shall take
precedence).
For any Specials bets which involve
a player to win a tournament, if
that player shares the same lowest
score in the tournament as another
player and there is no play-off, the
relevant part of the Special bet
will be settled according to our
normal dead heat rules.
In the event of a play-off, the
result of the play-off will
determine the winner of the
tournament. Even if three or more
contestants take part in a play-off,
such a play-off has, for the
purposes of any Specials bets, the
sole purpose of determining the
winner of the tournament (meaning
that the relative finishing
positions, within the tournament, of
unsuccessful play-off contestants is
not affected by their placing in the
play-off).
Any players who withdraw from a
tournament after they have completed
3 holes or more are considered as
having played in the tournament and,
therefore, any Specials bets placed
on those players will be deemed to
be losing bets.
For any Specials bets which involve
a player that has withdrawn before
they have completed 3 holes, the bet
in question will be voided in its
entirety
Where an obvious pricing error has
occurred, we reserve the right to
cancel any Specials bets placed at
the incorrect price (and, in such
circumstances, we will offer the
Special bet to be re-placed at the
correct price).
Any Special bets involving a player
to finish in the top 5/10/15/20 (or
similar) will (unless otherwise
stated) be deemed successful if the
player finishes in a tie for the
last named place. For example, if a
Special bet is placed on player to
finish in the top 10 and the player
finishes in tied 10th position, the
Special bet will be settled as a
winning bet.
For any obvious wording errors, we
reserve the right to cancel any
Special bets placed on that
selection (and, in such
circumstances, we will offer the
Special bet to be re-placed with the
correct wording).

between Norway and Brazil which is part of the
U20 World Cup.

otherwise stated, cumulative amounts of such
bets will include eventual prolongations (e.g.

Race Betting
The Field includes any driver
who is not listed
Any drivers who do not qualify
for the race will be deemed no
action
The race must be run within 24
hours of the scheduled start
time for bets to stand
The podium presentation will
count as the result and any
subsequent inquiries will not
affect settlement of bets
Race Driver Matchups
All match-ups will be settled as
per the official NASCAR result.
If one driver fails to complete
the race then the other driver
will be declared the winner.
Where both drivers fail to
complete the race then the
number of full laps completed
will determine the result. In
the event of both drivers
failing to complete on the same
lap, then the official placing
as assigned by the official
NASCAR result.
Both drivers must start the race
(e.g. cross the start line) for
bets to be action. If any driver
is replaced before the start of
the race then all match-ups will
be void.
Race Props
Race props will be settled on
official NASCAR results (e.g.
cautions, caution laps, lead
changes, number of leaders,
winning car etc.). If a race is
shortened and no official
results are posted then all bets
will be deemed no action.
Futures
All prop futures are deemed action when
drivers qualify for at least 27 races.
Outright Drivers Championship will be
deemed as action when driver has
qualified for at least 27 races.
Formula 1/IndyCar
Official Results
The race must be run within 24
hours of the scheduled start
time for bets to stand
All F1 race bets are settled on
the official FIA classification
at the time of the podium, with
subsequent disqualifications
disregarded
IndyCar results will be settled
on official classification at
the time of the podium
presentation, with subsequent
disqualifications disregarded.
F1 Sprint Weekends: Unless
otherwise stated, all F1 Grand
Prix markets will be settled on
results of the main weekend
race. Sprint Race markets will
be explicitly called out
All Drivers who complete 90% of
the race laps are deemed as
classified finishers in line
with the official FIA
Classification. However, all
drivers are given a ranking, and
for the purpose of match and
positional betting, this rank
shall apply.
In the event a selection does
not complete the designated
number of laps to be deemed a
classified finisher, for match,
and positional betting - the
winner will be determined by the
number of laps completed. Should
both selections complete same
number of laps, wagers will be
voided.
For Group Betting, the winner is
the driver achieving the highest
placing at the time of the
podium presentation. If all
drivers in the group fail to be
classified, then the driver
completing the most laps will be
deemed the winner. If all
drivers in the group fail to be
classified and two or more
drivers retired on the same lap
then dead-heat rules will apply.
All qualifying wagers are action
once a driver starts qualifying.
Drivers must start qualifying
for action on qualifying wagers.
Subsequent penalties or
demotions will not affect the
grading of wagers.
The Start of the race is deemed
to be the signal to start the
warmup lap. All drivers are
action from this point on.
For match and positional
betting, all drivers within the
specified market must start the
race (see above) for bets to be
action. If any driver is
replaced before the start of the
race then all match-ups will be
void.
Race Props will be settled on
official IndyCar & Formula
One results.
For “first retirement
markets” the following
rules shall apply. All bets
placed on drivers who do not
start the formation lap will be
deemed void. The first
retirement will be settled on
the number lap on which the
driver retired. If 2 or more
drivers retire on the same lap,
then dead heat rules will apply
regardless of the time that the
drivers retired.
Leader after the first lap, for
Settlement purposes the winner
is deemed to the driver leading
the race as they cross the
start/finish line after one
classified lap (warm up lap not
included). In the event of one
lap not being fully completed
all bets will be void. If the
race starts under the Safety
car, all bets will be void.
Bets on the Formula One
Championship and Constructors
Championship will be settled in
line with the official FIA
results immediately following
the podium presentation of the
final race of the season, with
subsequent disqualifications
disregarded. The drivers and
constructors championship titles
are awarded to the driver and
constructor who score the most
points over the course of the
season. In the case of a dead
heat for a championship place,
then the driver or constructor
with the higher number of
superior race results will be
awarded the place
Netball

reserve the right to apply a deduction
in returns relevant to the price of the

under FIBA rules. Therefore all bets
will be settled according to
‘European Basketball Rules’.

will be settled based on the result at
the end of 60 minutes. In the event of a
two-way match betting/to qualify market
being offered, then this will be settled
on whichever team progresses.
Olympic Rugby 7s - all bets will be
settled according to rugby 7s rules
within the ‘Rugby Union and Rugby
League’ section.

not complete it then they will be deemed a loser
providing at least one other crew or individual
completes the race. If no crew or individual
completes a race then all bets will be void.
If a regatta is cancelled for any reason, all
bets will be void, except those on markets which
have been unconditionally determined.
Where there is a presentation ceremony, markets
will be settled on the official result of the
relevant governing body at the time of the

disqualification or amendment to the result.
If there is no presentation ceremony, outcomes
will be determined in accordance with the
official result of the relevant governing body,
regardless of any subsequent disqualification or
amendment to the result (except if an amendment
is announced within 24 hours of the initial
settlement of the relevant market in order to
correct an error in reporting the result).
Rugby Union and Rugby League
Rugby Union Rules
Unless otherwise stated, all rugby union
bets are settled on 80 minutes’
play plus any injury time.
For Rugby 7s tournaments, all bets are
settled on the result at the end of
extra time unless the market has a
“Draw” or “Tie”
selection in which circumstances the
market is settled on the result after
the completion of normal time. Double
Result will be settled after extra time.
The “Any Draw” or
“Tie” selection will only be
a winner in the case of a half time draw
in games where extra time takes place.
If a match is postponed, bets will stand
until 48 hours from the original kick
off time, after which time they will be
void.
If the venue is changed from the one
advertised, all bets on that match are
void.
Any parlay bet reduced by an abandoned,
postponed or re-arranged match will
stand on the remaining selections.
If a match starts but is abandoned
before its completion, all bets will be
void unless an official result is
declared by the applicable governing
body. Where an official result has been
declared by the official governing body,
that official result will govern match
and point spread (handicap) market
settlement but all other markets will be
void unless their result has already
been determined at the point of
abandonment (i.e. at the point of
abandonment, it would not have been
possible for the outcome of the bet to
change had the match continued to its
natural conclusion). By way of example,
if 37 points have been scored at the
time a match is abandoned: (i) a bet
placed on 35 points or more to be scored
would be settled as a winning bet, (ii)
a bet placed on 30-35 points to be
scored would be settled as a losing bet
and (iii) a bet placed on 40-45 points
to be scored would be void. In such
circumstances, bets on last tryscorer /
team to score last / team to score last
try / last scoring play would all be
void.
Outright Bets: all bets placed on
outright markets will be settled on
official tournament results. For betting
purposes, any team which has points
deducted due to breaches of rules and
regulations will be deemed a starter.
If, at the time a deduction of points is
announced, the loss of points means that
only one eventuality can occur then all
bets on that competitor are void and
monies will be returned. Any bets placed
after a points deduction may have prices
adjusted accordingly.
All outright markets which state
“Regular Season” (or
similar) are deemed to mean the official
standings of teams after all matches of
the predetermined season are played and
before any playoff matches have
commenced.
Tournament Tries/Points: Bets will apply
to all playing time, including any extra
time in any match where an official
result is declared.
To Miss Top 2 / Top 4 / Top 8: For
betting purposes, any team which has
points deducted due to breaches of rules
and regulations will be deemed a
starter. If, at the time a deduction of
points is announced, the loss of points
means that only one eventuality can
occur, then all bets on that competitor
are void.
Tryscorers: All bets will be refunded if
they were placed on players not included
the official match day 22 or 23
(depending on the competition). If a
substitute is not on the field before
the first try is scored then bets on
that player will be void in the
‘First Tryscorer’,
‘First Team Tryscorer’ and
‘First Tryscorer Insurebet’
markets. If a substitute comes on at any
stage during the game, they will be
considered ‘All In’ for all
other tryscorer markets. If they do not
take any part in the game, they will be
void in all tryscorer markets.
First/Last Tryscorer: In the event of a
penalty try being the first / last try
scored, we will pay out on the penalty
try option if offered. If the penalty
try option is not offered, we will pay
out, for “First Try”
markets, on the next tryscorer following
the penalty try (where the first try is
a penalty try) and, for “Last
Try” markets, on the tryscorer
immediately preceding the penalty try
(where the last try is a penalty try).
For ‘Xth try scorer’
markets, if the penalty try option is
not offered, we will void any bets
placed on the Xth try to be scored by a
particular player if that try is in fact
a penalty try. If there is no try scored
after the penalty try then “First
Try” and “Last Try”
markets will be void.
First Tryscorer Insurebet: If the player
fails to score the first try but does
score a try in the match then the bet
stake will be returned. If a substitute
is not on the field before the first try
is scored then bets on that player will
be void.
Position to Score First Try: In the
event of a penalty try being the first
try scored, we will pay out on the
position of the next tryscorer for
“Position to Score First
Try” markets. For ‘Position
to score xth Try’ markets, in the
event of a penalty try, we will pay out
on the position which scores the next
try (e.g. if the first try scored in a
match is a penalty try and the second
try is scored by a
‘forward’, then a
‘forward’ will be deemed to
have scored both the first and second
tries). If there is no try scored after
the penalty try then this market will be
void.
To win in Extra Time: If there is no
winner following extra time, dead heat
rules will apply to bets on this market.
Tryscorer Matchbets / Kicker Matchbets /
To Score the Most Points Matchbets: Both
players must be in the starting 15 for
bets to stand. If there is no
‘Tie’ or ‘Draw’
selection offered and the result is a
tie then all bets will be void.

Kicker Matchbets / To Score the Most
Points Matchbets: Bets will be void if
both players do not attempt at least 1
placed kick at goal.

least 1 placed kick at goal.

Points Scorer: dead heat rules apply.

rules apply.
Head to Head: Any extra time will be
counted for settlement purposes. In the
result of a draw where no extra time is
played, this market will be settled
according to dead heat rules.
Line: Any extra time will be counted for
settlement purposes.
Man of the Match: for Rugby World Cup
Man of the Match markets, the market
will be settled based on the official
'Man of the Match' as
determined by the Rugby World Cup
official site. If the Rugby World Cup
official site fails to declare an
official Man of the Match for any
reason, all bets will be void.
Rugby League Rules
Unless otherwise stated, all rugby
league bets are settled on 80
minutes’ play plus any injury
time.
All bets on NRL matches will be settled
on the official declared result
including any extra time, except
‘Match Betting, ‘Point
Spread (Handicap) Betting, 'Will
There Be Extra Time?',
'Highest Scoring Half' and
'Half With Most Tries' markets
(which will be settled on the basis of
80 minutes’ play plus any injury
time). In Point Spread (Handicap)/Line
and Totals betting where the value
selected is a whole number (e.g. 6.0),
and the result lands on that number,
then all wagers related to that line
number will be refunded, and any such
bet will be deemed an excluded leg for
the purpose of any applicable parlay,
which will be recalculated excluding
that leg. The same rules apply for State
of Origin and any other Australian Rugby
League match where extra time is played.
If the result of an NRL match after
extra time is a draw, then the Dead Heat
Rule will apply to all bets where a
winner has not been officially declared.
All winning margin bets, including Dozen
Winning Margins, will be deemed
unsuccessful bets as neither team has
won the match.
If a match is postponed, bets will stand
until 48 hours from the original kick
off (local time of match), after which
time they will be void.
If the venue is changed from the one
advertised, all bets on that match will
still have action (unless it is also
postponed to over 48 hours from
scheduled kick off)
Any parlay bet reduced by an abandoned,
postponed or re-arranged match will
stand on the remaining selections.
If a match starts but is abandoned
before its completion, all bets will be
void unless an official result is
declared by the applicable governing
body. Where an official result has been
declared by the official governing body,
that official result will govern match
and point spread (handicap) market
settlement but all other markets will be
void unless their result has already
been determined at the point of
abandonment (i.e. at the point of
abandonment, it would not have been
possible for the outcome of the bet to
change had the match continued to its
natural conclusion). By way of example,
if 37 points have been scored at the
time a match is abandoned: (i) a bet
placed on 35 points or more to be scored
would be settled as a winning bet, (ii)
a bet placed on 30-35 points to be
scored would be settled as a losing bet
and (iii) a bet placed on 40-45 points
to be scored would be void. In such
circumstances, bets on last tryscorer /
team to score last / team to score last
try / last scoring play would all be
void.
Outright Bets: all bets placed on
outright markets will be settled on
official tournament results. For betting
purposes, any team which has points
deducted due to breaches of rules and
regulations will be deemed a starter.
If, at the time a deduction of points is
announced, the loss of points means that
only one eventuality can occur then all
bets on that competitor are void and
monies will be returned. Any bets placed
after a points deduction may have prices
adjusted accordingly.
NRL & Super League Outright /
Regular Season Outright / Top 2 / 4 / 8
Finish: All In Betting. Any Team which
has points deducted due to breaches of
rules and regulations will be deemed a
starter for resulting purposes. Any loss
of titles after the completion of the
Grand Final will be deemed null and void
and all bets will stand. All outright
markets which state “Regular
Season” (or similar) are deemed to
mean the official standings of teams
after all matches of the predetermined
season are played and before any playoff
matches have commenced.
NRL & Super League Wooden Spoon:
This market is settled on the team which
has the least wins for the season. A
draw is considered as half a win. In the
event of more than one team having the
same number of wins, the outcome will be
determined by the worst 'for and
against' points total. Points
deducted because of breaches of rules
and regulations are excluded for
resulting purposes. All In. Win Only.
To Miss Top 2 / 4 / 8: For betting
purposes, any team which has points
deducted due to breaches of rules and
regulations will be deemed a starter.

to all playing time (including any extra
time) in any match where an official
result is declared.
Tryscorers: All bets will be refunded if
they were placed on players not included
in the official match day 17. All
players that are named in the match day
17 will be considered ‘All
In’ for all tryscorer markets
(including "First Tryscorer"
and "First Team Tryscorer"
markets).
First/Last Tryscorer: In the event of a
penalty try being the first / last try
scored, we will pay out on the penalty
try option if offered. If the Penalty
Try option is not offered we pay on the
next tryscorer for first try or
preceding tryscorer for last try. For
xth Try betting if the Penalty Try
option is not offered we pay on the next
tryscorer i.e if the second try scored
in a match is a penalty try and the
third try is scored by Paul Smith, then
Paul Smith will be deemed the winner for
the second and third tries. If there is
no try scored after the penalty try then
this market will be void.
First 2nd Half Tryscorer: If a player is
included in his team's matchday 17

Soccer
General Information
General Information
For soccer betting, the team
listed first is the Home Team,
unless the game takes place in a
neutral venue. For settlement
purposes, the first team listed
will still be considered the
Home Team in this case.
All general soccer bets will be
settled in accordance with
official league data
For statistic related markets,
the definitions provided within
the “terminology”
section will be used to
determine the settlement of any
bets which are placed on:
Shots/Shots on Goal
Markets
Assists Markets
Tackles Markets
Offside/Foul Markets
Cross Markets
FanDuel reserves the right to
settle the above markets in
accordance with the definitions
if there are disputes on
official league data.
All bets on soccer are
automatically settled on the
basis of 90 minutes play unless
otherwise stated for that
particular market. 90 minutes
play includes time added on by
referee for stoppages. The only
exceptions are for matches that
are played for a lesser duration
(e.g. 60, 70 or 80) as agreed by
the laws of the competition in
which they are competing or
agreed by both sides prior to
kick-off. In such cases, if the
match is played in the
traditional format of two
halves, all bets will be settled
at the end of the agreed game
length which includes time added
on by the referee for stoppages
whether the game length is
advertised by Fanduel or not. If
the game is played in an unusual
format (e.g. 3 or 4 periods)
then all half-time markets will
be voided but all other markets
will be settled on the basis of
the score at the end of the
match (including any time added
on by the referee for
stoppages).
Where a bet is accepted on a
match where no prices are on
offer then that selection will
be treated as a non-runner, but
the remainder of any parlay bet
will stand provided there are
not fewer than the stipulated
minimum number of matches in the
bet.
Settlement will be at the price
prevailing at the time the bet
was placed and confirmed. Dates
and kick-off times of matches
shown on our website are for
guidance purposes only. Bets
will be accepted up until the
advertised kick-off time.
If a parlay is reduced by
non-runners the bet will stand
with the reduced number of legs.
Fanduel reserves the right to
void or stand any bet
inadvertently accepted after the
betting has closed or where the
event was resolved or at a stage
where the customer could have
any indication of the outcome.
There is a small possibility
that we will inadvertently offer
soccer bets in respect of which
it is impossible for the outcome
to occur (for example, we
continue to offer bets on a
player to be the first goal
scorer in a match after that
player has been substituted).
While we have implemented
systems which aim to prevent
this from occurring, in the
small number of circumstances
where it does, we will void the
bets in question (and return the
relevant stakes to customers
accordingly).
For head to head markets where
there is a draw/tie option
offered. If the market ends in a
tie, bets on all other
selections will be losers.
VAR
To the extent that a video
assistant referee
(“VAR”) is
consulted, the event which led
to the referral will, for the
purposes of these rules, be
deemed to have occurred at the
actual time of its occurrence
(rather than the time on which
the relevant referral, or
decision, was made).
Where we have settled a bet and,
due to a subsequent VAR
decision, it becomes apparent
that such settlement was
inaccurate, we reserve the right
to reverse such settlement
(provided that the VAR decision
occurred prior to the conclusion
of the match or other timeframe
relating to the bet).
Bets which are placed between
the occurrence of an incident
which leads to a VAR review and
the related VAR decision will be
deemed void unless: (i) the VAR
review (and subsequent decision)
did not ultimately alter the
decision made by the on-field
officials or (ii) the VAR review
(and subsequent decision)
altered the decision made by the
on-field officials but did not
have any material influence on
the bet(s) in question. All bets
which were not materially
influenced by the VAR review
(and subsequent decision) will
stand.
In order to eliminate any doubt,
we will consider the VAR as
having been used if this is
understood from the
referee's gestures (e.g.
hand gestures or stopping the
match to review the incident
themselves) and/or VAR usage is
confirmed by the match report
issued by the official governing
body who is ultimately
responsible for oversight of the
applicable match. In cases where
it is unclear whether the VAR
has been used due to missing TV
coverage and/or conflicting
reports, FanDuel will settle the
bets based on the information
acquired from feed providers and
generally reputable online
sources (acting reasonably).
Abandoned, Postponed, Venue Changed or
Unplayed Matches
If a match is postponed, all
undetermined bets will be voided
as long as the match does not
start before 23:59 local time
(or if Fanduel believes that a
match will not have started by
such time) on its scheduled
date.
Fixtures that are rearranged
before the scheduled kick off
date will not be regarded as
postponements and all bets will
stand, as long as the
rescheduled date is within 72
hours of the original kick off
time.
If the venue of a match is other
than what is indicated on our
website, the bet will stand
provided the match has not been
switched to the opponent's
ground, in which case the match
will be declared void.
Notwithstanding this rule, in
major international tournaments
(eg World Cup, European
Championships), all venues will
be deemed neutral. If the
scheduled venue of a match is
changed, including if the venue
changes to a new venue in a
different country, all bets will
stand.
If a match starts but is later
abandoned, all undetermined bets
will be voided as long as the
match is not played to a finish
before midnight local time on
its scheduled date.
Late Bets
In relation to soccer markets
that are scheduled to be turned
in-play, Fanduel aims to use its
reasonable endeavors to turn
such markets in-play at kick-off
and to suspend such markets on
the occurrence of a Material
Event (see definition of
"Material Event"
below). However, Fanduel does
not guarantee that markets will
be suspended and turned in-play
at kick-off.
If a market is scheduled to be
turned in-play but Fanduel fails
to suspend the market at
kick-off and the market is not
turned in-play at any time
during the match, all bets
placed after the scheduled time
of the kick-off will be void
UNLESS it can be established
that the bet was actually
placed before the actual time of
kick-off.
If a market is scheduled to be
turned in-play but Fanduel fails
to suspend the market at
kick-off, but the market is
turned in-play at a later
time during the match, all bets
placed after the scheduled time
of the kick-off will stand.
However, the price may be
adjusted by Fanduel and the bets
may be settled in accordance
with the correct price at the
time on which the relevant bet
was placed (such price to be
determined by Fanduel, acting
reasonably).
For the purpose of this rule,
a "Material
Event" shall mean a goal
being scored, a penalty being
awarded, a player being sent
off, or a VAR decision.
Terminology
“Normal Time” refers
to the full length of a game
(usually 90 mins, including time
added on by the referee for
stoppages) and excludes any
extra time or penalty shootout.
Offside is awarded to the player
deemed to be in an offside
position where a free kick is
awarded. If two or more players
are in an offside position when
the pass is played, the player
considered to be most active and
trying to play the ball is given
offside.
With respect to
"Tackles", a tackle is
defined as where a player
connects with the ball in a
ground challenge where he
successfully takes the ball away
from the player in possession.
The tackled player must clearly
be in possession of the ball
before the tackle is made.
A tackle won is deemed to be
where the tackler or one of his
team-mates regains possession as
a result of the challenge, or
that the ball goes out of play
and is "safe".
A tackle lost is where a tackle
is made but the ball goes to an
opposition player.
Both are deemed as successful
tackles, however the outcome of
the tackle (won or lost) is
different based on where the
ball goes after the tackle.
It is not a tackle, when a
player cuts out a pass by any
means.
Missed Tackles is where a player
attempts to challenge for the
ball and does not make it - it
is calculated by adding fouls
with an attempted tackle
qualifier to the number of times
a player is beaten by a dribble
(challenge lost).
Clearance is a defensive action
where a player kicks the ball
away from his own goal with no
intended recipient.
Interception is where a player
reads an opponent’s pass
and intercepts the ball by
moving into the line of the
intended pass.
Blocked pass is where a player
tries to cut out an opposition
pass by any means. Similar to an
interception except there is
much less reading of the pass.
Block is where a player blocks a
shot on target from an opposing
player.
Assists can be defined as the
final touch (pass, pass-cum-shot
or any other touch) leading to
the recipient of the ball
scoring a goal. If the final
touch (as defined in bold,
above) is deflected by an
opposition player, the initiator
is only given a goal assist if
the receiving player was likely
to receive the ball without the
deflection having taken place.
Own goals, directly taken free
kicks, direct corner goals and
penalties do not get an assist
awarded.
Cards are collected as yellow,
second yellow or red card. Where
possible, cards are cross
checked against official
(referee) reports to match the
official statistics, unless
these are clearly incorrect.
Crosses can be defined as any
Intentional played ball from a
wide position intending to reach
a teammate in a specific area in
front of the goal
A Shot is defined as any goal
attempt
A Shot on target is defined as
any goal attempt that a) goes
into the net regardless of
intent - for Goals only b) is a
clear attempt to score that
would have gone into the goal
but for being saved by
goalkeeper or is stopped by a
player who is the last man with
the goalkeeper having no chance
of preventing the goal (last
line block). Shots directly
hitting the frame of the goal
are not counted as shots on
target unless the ball goes in
and is awarded as a goal. Shots
blocked by another player, who
is not the last man, are not
counted as shots on target
Foul conceded: A foul conceded
is defined as any infringement
that is penalized as foul play
by a referee. Offsides are not
given as a foul conceded
Overview of Specific Markets
Goalscorer Markets
First/Last Goalscorer
Own goals do not count
for settlement of
first/last goalscorer
bets. If any goal is an
own goal, the result of
the following goalscorer
market will count for
the settlement of the
original one - e.g.
second goal of the game
is an own goal. The
scorer of the third goal
will be settled as the
winner for both the
second goalscorer and
third goalscorer
markets. If the last
goal of the game is an
own goal, then the
second last goal of the
game will be considered
the winner for the Last
Goalscorer market
Bets taken on first
goalscorer will be void
if that player does not
take part in the game or
if they come on after
the first goal is
scored.
Every effort is made to
quote first/last player
to score odds for all
possible players.
However, odds for other
players are available on
request and will count
as winners if they score
the first/last goal even
if they are not named in
our lists.
Bets on last goalscorer
will be void if that
player does not take
part in the game or does
not come on as a
substitute. In the event
of a dispute over the
award of a goal for
first/last goalscorer or
scorer special purposes,
settlement will be in
accordance with the
result given by
governing body of that
league within 24 hours
of the final whistle.
Any subsequent changes
to the result will be
ignored for settlement
purposes.
Anytime Goalscorer
A player will be
considered to be a
runner and bets will
stand should the player
play any part in the
match.
Goals scored in normal
time only count for this
market. Goals scored in
extra time or in a
penalty shoot-out do not
count.

Insurebet First Goalscorer
Price offered is for
the player to score
the first goal of
the match. If the
player fails to
score the first goal
of the match but
does score a goal in
the match then the
bet stake is
returned.
Assist Markets
First & Anytime assists
As determined by
FanDuel’s
settlement guidelines,
Goal assist means the
final touch leading to
the recipient of the
ball scoring a goal. If
the final touch is
deflected by an
opposition player, the
initiator is only given
a goal assist if the
receiving player was
likely to receive the
ball without the
deflection having taken
place. Own goals,
directly taken free
kicks, direct corner
goals and penalties do
not get an assist
awarded. Only one player
can be awarded an assist
Where there is no result
for the assist of the
1st goal then the
betting will apply for
the 2nd goal and
continue to the 3rd goal
etc. until an assist is
awarded for a goal.
If a player wins a
penalty or a free kick
that leads to a goal it
does not count as an
assist.
Bets taken on first
assist will be void if
that player does not
take part in the game or
if he comes on after the
first goal is scored
(and where an assist is
awarded for that goal).
For the first assist
market only, if a player
enters the field of play
after the first goal is
scored (and where an
assist is awarded for
that goal), the bet will
be voided. If a player
is sent off or
substituted before the
first goal is scored
(and where an assist is
awarded for that goal)
bets on that selection
are deemed as losers.
Spread Betting (3-way)
For the purpose of deciding
results on spread betting, the
actual score of the match (Team
A v Team B) is adjusted for the
spread. If Team A or Team B are
selected, then the spread
adjustment applies to the goals
scored by that team. If the draw
is selected then the spread
adjustment applies to Team A.
For example, spread markets are
shown as:
Team A (-1)
7/2 Draw (-1) 3/1
Team B (+1) 8/15
If Team A win by 2 or
more goals then all bets
on Team A (-1) will be
winners. Bets on the
Draw (-1) and Team B
(+1) will be losers.
(e.g., Team A win 2-0 so
becomes Team A 1-0 after
the -1 adjustment so
Team A are the spread
winners.)
If Team A win by exactly
1 goal, then all bets on
Draw (-1) will be
winners. Bets on Team A
(-1) and Team B (+1)
will be losers (e.g.,
Team A 1-0 becomes 0-0
after the -1 adjustment
to the home team so
it’s a spread
draw)
If the match ends in a
draw or Team B win by
any number of goals,
then all bets on Team B
(+1) will be winners.
Bets on Draw(-1) and
Team A (-1) will be
losers. (e.g., Team A
1-1 Team B becomes Team
A 1-2 Team B after the
+1 adjustment to Team B
so Team B are the spread
winners).
Tie/Draw No Bet
A 2-way money line market where
bets are void if the game ends
in a tie after normal time.
Double Chance
A double chance bet allows you
to cover two of the three
possible outcomes in a soccer
game with one bet.
Home team and draw - Your bet is
a winner if the home team wins
or ties the game.
Away team and draw - Your bet is
a winner if the away team wins
or ties the game.
Home team and away team - Your
bet is a winner if the home team
or the away team wins the game.
Normal 90 minute betting rules
apply.
Scorecasts/Wincasts
Scorecasts
First player to
score/correct score
double.
To win you must
successfully forecast
both the player who will
score the first goal in
a selected match and
also the correct score
after 90 minutes play.
If a player is selected
who comes on after the
first goal has been
scored or does not take
part in the match, the
bet will be settled as a
correct score single.
In the event of a match
being abandoned, bets
will be void unless a
goal has been scored
prior to abandonment,
when bets will be
settled as singles on
the selected first
goalscorer at the
appropriate odds.
In the eventuality of
all goals in the match
being own goals, all
bets will be settled as
correct score singles at
the correct score odds
only.
Wincast
Player to score/match
result doubles
To win you must
successfully forecast
both a player to score
in a selected match and
also the match result
after normal time.
If a player is selected
who takes no part in the
match then all bets will
be void regardless of
the match result.
A player will be
considered to be a
runner and bets will
stand should the player
play any part in the
match.
In the event of a match
being abandoned, all
bets will be void.
Time Markets
Time of X Markets
Bets on time of the
first/last goal, time of
first corner, time of
first booking and
interval bets will be
settled as the time
shown by the major TV
station broadcasting the
match.
For time of first corner
market, the time that
the corner is taken will
count.
For time of first
booking market, the time
that the player is shown
the card will count.
In the event of a
dispute, the decision of
the official league data
will be final.
The 1st minute is
defined as between 00:00
& 00:59 and so on
for every other minute
of the game.
Next Minute Markets
What will happen in the
next minute. Settlement
rules for these markets
are below:
Settlement in all cases
will use the time of the
event supplied to us by
our data provider.
If none of the stated
outcomes occur during
the stated period, all
bets will be settled as
losing bets.
For the
‘goal’
selection, a goal will
be deemed to have been
scored the moment the
ball completely crosses
the goal-line within the
confines of the goal
posts, provided that the
referee ultimately
awards the goal. For
example, if the ball
completely crosses the
goal-line but the goal
is not awarded because,
for example a foul
occurred before the ball
crossed the line or
because the referee did
not believe that the
ball did cross the line,
then a goal will not be
deemed to have been
scored. Own goals scored
will count towards
settlement of this
market.
For the ‘free
kick’ selection, a
free-kick will be deemed
to have been awarded the
moment the referee and
or assistant referee
signal any of the
following: A direct
free-kick following a
foul, an indirect
free-kick following a
foul or offside offence
but not a penalty kick,
corner or drop ball.
Direct Free Kick for
Goals / Shots - direct
free kick shots are any
attempts created
directly from the free
kick itself.
For the
‘corner’
selection, a corner will
be deemed to have been
awarded the moment the
referee and or assistant
referee signal for the
award of a corner.
For the ‘goal
kick’ selection, a
goal kick is awarded and
timed according to when
it was indicated by the
referee and/or assistant
referees. A kick out
from the hands of the
goalkeeper or a free
kick taken by the
goalkeeper is not a
goal-kick.
For the ‘throw
in’ selection, a
throw in will be deemed
to have been awarded the
moment the referee and
or assistant referee
signal the award of the
throw in.
X - Y Minute Markets
"Goal Scored X -
Y" markets are
defined as betting on
whether there will be a
goal scored by one of
the teams within the
time period X - Y
(inclusive) of the
event’s match
clock. Only goals scored
within that timeframe
will count for
settlement.
"Corner Awarded X -
Y" markets are
defined as betting on
whether there will be a
corner awarded to one of
the teams within the
time period X - Y
(inclusive) of the
event’s match

taken within that
timeframe will count for
settlement.
"Card Shown X -
Y" markets are
defined as betting on
whether there will be a
yellow or red card shown
to a player within the
time period X - Y
(inclusive) of the
event’s match
clock. Only cards shown
within that timeframe
will count for
settlement.
Number of Goals/Corners/Bookings
These are known as special
spreads.
Bets on number of goals include
own goals.
Bookings of managers, coaches or
players who are yet to
participate in the game (ie.
substitutes) do not count.
In the event of an abandoned
match all bets on special
spreads will be void unless the
maximum quote has been obtained.
For example, should a customer
back 12 or more corners in a
match and that match is
abandoned when 13 corners have
already been taken then that bet
is a winner with all other bets
on corners losers.
Bets on 'number of
corners' refers to corners
taken and not corners awarded.
Corner Markets
Bets on number of corners refers
to number of corners taken and
not corners awarded.
For time of corner markets, the
time that the corner is actually
taken will count and not the
time it was awarded.
For "Odd or Even"
corner markets, 0 is counted as
an even number.
Multi Corners refers to number
of 1st half corners multiplied
by number of 2nd half corners.
Team Multi Corners refers to
number of 1st half team corners
multiplied by number of 2nd half
team corners.
Markets for "Race to X
Corners" will be settled on
whatever team reaches
"X" corners first.
E.g. Race to 3 Corners will be
settled on the first team to
take 3 corners in the match.
Card/Booking Markets
Player to be Booked
Players will be
considered to be a
runner and bets will
stand should he play any
part in the match.
Only bookings in normal
time (90 mins play)
count.
Any bookings made during
half time will count;
however, bookings made
after the final whistle
do not count.
Bookings of players yet
to participate in the
game (ie. substitutes)
do not count.
Card Index / Total Cards
For Over/Under Total
Card markets, the
maximum number of cards
awarded to one player is
two. Yellow Card = 1.
Red Card = 1. Yellow
Card + Yellow Card
(Sending Off) = 2 Cards.
Bets on 'card
index' are settled
as follows: Yellow card
= 10 points; Red card =
25 points.
If a player is shown a
yellow card and
subsequently sent off
this counts as 35
points.
Maximum booking points a
single player can
receive in one match is
35 points.
Bookings will only count
for players taking part
in the match. Bookings
of managers, coaches or
off the field of play
will not count.
Any bookings made during
half-time will count,
however bookings made
after the final whistle
do not count.
Restrictions apply as to
what special spread
selections can be
combined with in parlay
bets.
For first booking if
more than one player
being booked in the same
incident the first
player to be shown a
card by the match
referee shall be deemed
the winner.
Both yellow and red
cards count for this
market.
Booking times will be
settled on the match
time when the yellow or
red card is shown and
not when the foul or
offence took place.
Bookings during
half-time (before the
2nd half kicks off) will
be counted as cards
awarded in the 1st half
for settlement purposes
with regards to all
relevant markets.
Card Index Match Bet
refers to which teams
gets the most Card Index
points during the match.
For any bets placed on
the total number of
cards to be awarded
(e.g. in total, to a
team or to a single
player / group of
players), a player who
has been shown two
yellow cards (and is
therefore ultimately
shown a red card) or a
player who is shown a
yellow card followed by
a straight red card
will, for settlement
purposes, be deemed in
each case to have been
shown two (rather than
three) cards. For the
avoidance of a doubt,
the award of a straight
red card will, for
settlement purposes, be
deemed to amount to the
award of a single card.
Shots on Target
For any bets involving a given
player to achieve a number of
shots on target, the final
determination of the number of
shots on target will be made by
FanDuel, using the definitions
below. A shot on target is
defined as any goal attempt
that:
Goes into the net regardless of
intent; or
Is a clear attempt to
score that would have
gone into the net but
for being saved by the
goalkeeper or is stopped
by a player who is the
last-man with the
goalkeeper having no
chance of preventing the
goal (last line block).
Shots directly hitting
the frame of the goal
are not counted as shots
on target, unless the
ball goes in and is
awarded as a goal.
Shots blocked by another player,
who is not the last-man, are not
counted as shots on target.
All shots on target bets are
settled on the basis of 90
minutes’ play (plus injury
time) unless otherwise stated.
For any player shots/shots on
target bets, all bets placed on
players that do not take part in
the match will be void. Players
will be deemed a participant
should they enter the game at
any point in 90 minutes play
plus injury time.
For combined shots on target
markets, the bet will be void if
any player named in the
selection plays no part in the
match, regardless of the overall
outcome.
Player in Each Half Rules
You are betting on a nominated
player to achieve the stated
stipulation in both the first
half and second half.
If the nominated player achieves
the stated stipulation in the
selection, then the selection
will be settled as a winner
(e.g. if the selection Is Harry
Kane to have 1 or more assists
in each half and he has an
assist in the first half and an
assist in the second half, this
would be settled as a winner).
If the nominated player plays no
part in the first half of the
match, or indeed any part of the
match, then the selection is
void (e.g. if the selection is
Harry Kane to score 1 or more
goals in both halves and Harry
Kane is a substitute, but comes
on during or after half time, or
plays no part whatsoever, the
selection would be void).
If the nominated player plays
any part of the first half, and
fails to achieve the stated
first half stipulation, then the
selection is a loser regardless
of the duration of their
participation in either the
first or second half (e.g. if
the selection is Harry Kane to
have 1 or more shots on target
in each half, and he starts the
match/comes on during the first
half and fails to register a
shot on target during the first
half, this selection will be a
loser regardless of his
participation in the second
half).
If the nominated player plays
any part of the first half, and
does achieve the stated
stipulation but is subsequently
withdrawn before or during half
time and plays no part in the
second half, then this selection
will be void (e.g. if the
selection is Harry Kane to score
1 or more goals in each half
& assist 1 or more goals in
each half, and he scores AND
assists in the first half but is
withdrawn before or during half
time i.e. plays no part in the
second half, then the selection
is void. In this instance
however, if he scored but
didn’t assist in the first
half, the selection would be a
loser, as it marries up with the
point above).
Extra Time Markets
Extra time markets refer only to
the 30 minute period of extra
time plus any time added by the
referee for stoppages. For
settlement purposes, this is
essentially treated as a new
game, and stats (goals, corners
etc.) start at zero here. Goals
scored in Penalty shootout do
not count for settlement
purposes.
Match Penalty Markets
Refers only to Penalties scored
in Normal Time. Penalties scored
in extra time or penalty
shootouts do not count here.
Penalty Shootout Markets
Refers to results of penalty
shootout only. Penalties scored
in normal time or extra time do
not count here.
Top X Finish
Refers to team finishing in top
X positions of league table in
regular season play, excluding
any subsequent playoff matches.
Multiple Trophies
Refers to trophies won be a
specific team in a given season.
Must win all listed trophies in
selection to win.
Relegation
If a team is relegated from a
league because, at the end of a
season, it has finished within
the relegation positions which
are relevant to that league,
bets on that team to be
relegated will be settled as
winning bets. If a team is
otherwise disqualified, thrown
out or removed from a league
(i.e. in circumstances other
than those where it has finished
the season within the relevant
relegation positions): (i) if
such team is disqualified,
thrown out or removed from the
league before the relevant
season has started, all bets on
the affected market will be void
(and a new market will
subsequently be loaded) and (ii)
if such team is disqualified,
thrown out or removed from the
league after the relevant season
has started (or a determination
is made by the applicable
governing body, during the
season, that the team will be
thrown out or removed from the
league following the
season’s conclusion), all
bets on the affected team will
be void. For the avoidance of
doubt, if a points deduction is
imposed on a team such that it
finishes the season within the
relegation places which are
relevant to the applicable
league, bets on that team to be
relegated will be settled as
winning bets.
Stages of Elimination
Stage of Elimination refers to
the round of the tournament at
which a team is eliminated. E.g
if a team is defeated in the
quarter final, the
“Quarter Final”
selection would be the winner.
Asian Handicaps
Asian Handicaps
An Asian handicap is a
market where a handicap
is applied to the match
in order to make the
prices more equal.
The favourite in a match
will have a negative
handicap represented
with a (-) symbol and
will have to win by more
goals than the handicap
in order to be a winner.
The outsider in the
match will receive a
positive handicap
represented with a (+)
symbol which will be
added to the final
score.
The handicap will be
added to one side only.
Half-time Asian handicap
markets will be settled
on the half-time result.
There are three types of Asian
handicap:
(i) Whole ball handicap
(e.g. Team A -0, Team A
-1.0, Team A -2.0)
The handicap is
applied to the
final result of
the match and
the team with
the most goals
after the
handicap has
been applied
will be the
winner. If the
number of goals
for each team
are level after
the handicap has
been applied, it
will result in a
push with the
stake being
returned.
Example: Team A
-2.0, Team B
+2.0
If Team
A win by
three or
more
goals
then all
bets on
Team A
will be
winners
and bets
on Team
B will
be
losers
If Team
A win by
exactly
two
goals
then all
bets on
the
market
will be
pushed
and the
bet
stake
returned
on both
sides
If Team
A win by
exactly
one
goal,
the
match
ends in
a draw
or Team
B win
the
match
then all
bets on
Team B
will be
winners
and bets
on Team
A will
be
losers
(ii) Half ball handicaps
(e.g. Team A -0.5, Team
A -1.5, Team A -2.5)
The handicap is
applied to the
final result of
the match and
the team with
the most goals
after the
handicap has
been applied
will be the
winner.
Example: Team A
-1.5, Team B
+1.5
If Team
A win by
two or
more
goals
then all
bets on
Team A
will be
winners
and bets
on Team
B will
be
losers.
If Team
A win by
exactly
one
goal,
the
match
ends in
a draw
or Team
B win
the
match
then all
bets on
Team B
will be
winners
and bets
on Team
A will
be
losers.
(iii) Split ball
handicaps (e.g. Team A
-0 & -0.5, Team A
-0.5 & -1.0, Team A
-1.0 & -1.5)
A split ball
handicap is
where the level
of favouritism
is between a
half ball and a
whole ball. In
this case, your
stake is being
split equally
between the
whole ball and
half ball
handicaps.
Example: Team A
-1.0 & -1.5,
Team B +1.0
& +1.5
If you
place a
$100 bet
on Team
A -1.0
&
-1.5
then
your bet
is split
into two
$50
bets.
The
first
bet is
on the
Whole
Ball
Handicap
(Team A
-1.0)

Pre-Match Combos/Specials
The rules in this sub-section
apply specifically to the
settlement of any soccer bets
which are placed via Pre Match
Combo markets. All other
settlement rules which are
included in this "Soccer
Rules" section or elsewhere
on this website (including in
Fanduel’s Rules and
Regulations) will also apply to
the settlement of Pre Match
Combo bets unless they
contradict, or conflict with,
those included in this
sub-section (in which case, the
rules in this sub-section shall
take precedence).
All Pre Match Combo bets are
settled on the basis of 90
minutes’ play (plus injury
time) unless otherwise stated on
our website or below. Extra time
and penalties will not count,
except when the phrases 'To
Qualify', 'Lift The
Trophy' or 'Win The
Tie' are quoted. For all
parlay bets which involve one or
more bets including such
phrases, the remaining bets
(i.e. which do not include such
phrases) will be settled on the
basis of 90 minutes’ play
(plus injury time) unless stated
otherwise.
If any player who forms part of
a Pre Match Combo bet does not
take any part in the relevant
match (or does not fulfil the
conditions of the bet), then the
whole Pre Match Combo bet shall
be voided. This will apply in
all cases regardless if any/all
of the remaining components win
or lose.
Any dubious goals will be
awarded according to the final
determination of the Press
Association.
Own goals do not count towards
any player totals. If an own
goal is scored by a player on
Team A, the goal will be added
to Team B’s total goals as
per normal rules.
For Pre Match Combo bets which
have been placed on the method
of the first (or any other) goal
(e.g. header, shot from outside
the penalty area etc), any own
goals will be disregarded (i.e.
for the purposes of such any
such bets, own goals will be
deemed not to have occurred).
For example, if you have placed
a Pre Match Combo bet on the
first goal to be scored via a
header, your bet will be
successful if: (i) the first
goal was an own goal which came
off a player’s knee and
(ii) the second goal was an
ordinary goal scored via a
header.
Any Pre Match Combo bets
involving woodwork to be hit
require that the ball hits the
frame of the goal. Any shot that
hits the frame multiple times
(e.g. bar and left post) only
count as hitting the woodwork
once. Hit woodwork is always
collected for the attacking team
(and the player, who performed
the last action), even when the
ball hits the frame coming from
a defensive back pass.
For Pre Match Combo bets on a
player NOT to score or NOT to be
carded, the player in question
MUST start the match or the
applicable bet(s) shall be
voided.
Any Pre Match Combo Bets on the
last goalscorer of a match will
be void if that match is
abandoned.
For Pre Match Combo bets
involving goal kicks, only goal
kicks which are actually taken
will count towards the
cumulative goal kick count (i.e.
any goal kicks which are awarded
but not taken will not count).
For Pre Match Combo bets
involving two or more
occurrences, those occurrences
must take place at separate
times for the Pre Match Combo
bet to be successful. For
example, a Pre Match Combo bet
on a header to be scored and a
goal to be scored from outside
the penalty area will only be
successful if a goal is scored
via a header and separate goal
is scored from outside the
penalty area.
Any Pre Match Combo bets
involving free-kick goals must
be scored directly from a
free-kick. For the avoidance of
doubt, a goal will be deemed to
have been scored directly from a
free kick if the individual who
takes the free kick is awarded
the applicable goal (even if the
ball touched another player
before it crossed the goal
line). Penalties do not count as
free kicks.
For any bets involving a penalty
to be scored and/or missed
(including Pre Match Combo
bets), if there is a retake of
the first penalty we will settle
this market on the result of the
retaken penalty. This may
include several retakes until
the sequence is finished.
For any Pre Match Combo bets
involving a given player to
achieve a number of shots on
target, the final determination
of the number of shots on target
will be made by FanDuel, using
official data (where applicable)
and the definitions within the
terminology section.
Any Pre Match Combo bets
involving total passes, total
player passes or total
possession will be determined in
accordance with the final
determination of the official
website of the relevant
competition’s governing
body.
Pass shall mean any intentional
played ball from one player to
another. Passes include open
play passes, goal kicks, corners
and free kicks played as pass -
but exclude crosses, keeper
throws and throw-ins.
For any Pre Match Combo bets
involving players to be carded,
only cards awarded once the
player is active in the match
will count. Any cards shown
after the final whistle will not
count.
For any Pre Match Combo bets
involving booking points: a
yellow card will be worth 10
points and a red card will be
worth 25 points. However, if a
player receives two yellow cards
and is consequently shown a red
card, the player will receive a
total of 35 booking points for
the relevant game. Extra-time
does not count nor do cards
shown after the final whistle
count towards the total. Only
cards shown to players currently
on the field of play will count.
Cards shown to managers or
substitutes will not count
towards any total.
For any Pre Match Combo bets
placed on the total number of
cards to be awarded (e.g. in
total, to a team or to a single
player / group of players), a
player who has been shown two
yellow cards (and is therefore
ultimately shown a red card)
will be deemed, for settlement
purposes, to have been shown two
(rather than three) cards.
For any Pre Match Combo bets
involving corners, only corners
that are actually taken will
count. If a corner is re-taken,
it will only count as one
corner.
For any Pre Match Combo bets
relating to any competition long
specials, in the event of one or
more matches not being played,
any selections that require an
event (goal, corner etc.) to
occur in each match will be
settled at a reduced price in
line with the actual number of
matches that were played.
For any Pre-Match Combo bets
relating to any specials
involving players who play no
part in the competition, these
will be void.
Where an obvious pricing error
has occurred, we reserve the
right to cancel any Pre Match
Combo bets placed at the
incorrect price (and, in such
circumstances, we will offer the
Pre Match Combo bet to be
re-placed at the correct price).
For any obvious wording errors,
we reserve the right to cancel
any Pre Match Combo bets placed
on that selection (and, in such
circumstances, we will offer the
Pre Match Combo bet to be
re-placed with the correct
wording).
Any Pre Match Combo Bets
requiring 2 teams to score in
each half or to score 2+ or 3+
goals require each named team to
score 2+, 3+ or in each half as
appropriate.
Surfing
Stakes will be refunded on surfers withdrawn
prior to the start of an event. All wagers void
if there's a venue change or delay of 10+
days. Wagers are paid on official result stated
by the governing body. Tournament cancellation
will result in all wagers being void and wagers
will be refunded. Affected parlays will be
recalculated excluding that event or leg.
Swimming
Where there is a presentation ceremony, markets
will be settled on the official result of the
relevant governing body at the time of the
ceremony, regardless of any subsequent
disqualification or amendment to the result.
If there is no presentation ceremony, outcomes
will be determined in accordance with the
official result of the relevant governing body,
regardless of any subsequent disqualification or
amendment to the result.
Overall winner markets relate to the winner of
the overall event and not for individual
qualifiers or heats. If there is a presentation
ceremony, markets will be settled on the
official result of the relevant governing body
at the time of the ceremony, regardless of any
subsequent disqualification or amendment to the
result. However, as a customer courtesy we may
choose to settle prior to official publication
of results.
Table Tennis
In the event of a table tennis game not taking
place or begins and does not finish, bets on the
game which have not already been unconditionally
determined are declared void.
In the event a game is not decided
competitively, for example a player is given a
walkover, bets on this game are declared void.
If a player or team withdraw prior to the start
of an event, stakes will be refunded. Payouts on
events where participants have withdrawn are
subject to deductions to reflect the reduced
number of participants.
Bets are declared void in the event of a stated
player being replaced.
Official score sheets are used for the
settlement of all bets. Where it is found that
the official score sheet is clearly incorrect,
FanDuel may use its own recorded statistics for
settlement purposes.
Players who are awarded at the podium are
declared the event winner for settlement
purposes. Any subsequent disqualifications will
not overturn the original settlement.
Tennis
If a player or pairing retires or is
disqualified in an ATP/WTA/Challenger Tour/Grand
Slam/Davis Cup/Fed Cup/ATP Cup Match: (i) all
match bets (i.e. bets placed on the winner of a
given match) will be voided if the
retirement/disqualification occurs prior to the
conclusion of the first set and (ii) if the
retirement/disqualification occurs following the
conclusion of the first set, the player or
pairing progressing to the next round (or
winning the tournament in the case of a final)
will, for the purpose of any match bets, be
deemed the winner but match bets placed on the
retiring player or pairing will be voided (and
stakes in respect of those bets refunded
accordingly). Bets on all other tournaments or
matches (such as ITF or exhibition matches) and
bets on other markets (i.e. other than match
betting markets) will be voided where a player
or pairing retires or is disqualified
(regardless of whether the retirement occurs
during or following the first set) unless, in
the case of bets on other markets, the outcome
of the bet had been unequivocally determined
prior to the time of the
retirement/disqualification (in which case, the
bet shall stand and shall be settled
accordingly).
All tennis bets (including any specials or
statistics-based bets) will be settled in
accordance with the official website of each
tournament's governing body. Please note
that some tennis matches will have differing
match formats (i.e. 4 Game Sets, Championship
Tie Break etc.). It is solely the
customer’s responsibility to understand
the formatting of a match before placing a bet.
FanDuel Sportsbook will not be liable for any
erroneous bets made under the assumption that a
match would use a certain format.
In the case of any settlement disputes, FanDuel
Sportsbook’s decision is final.
In the event of a change in the number of sets
(or games per set) to be played, bets for match
betting markets and “To Win First
Set” markets will stand (save where the
number of sets is reduced to one from a higher
number of sets, in which case such markets will
be voided). All other markets will be void.
Where the format of the final set is changed
(e.g. the number of games to be played in that
set is changed) but the number of sets to be
played remains the same, bets for match betting
markets will stand.
In the event of a tennis event not taking place
or if a player is given a walkover, bets on the
event are deemed void (in this context,
“event” refers to a single match-up
between players, rather than the tournament
itself).
In the event of a change to any of the
following, all bets will stand:
a change in court type (indoor to
outdoor or vice versa)
a change of playing surface (either
before or during a match)
a change of venue
a change to the scheduling which affects
the time or date of a match.
Where a player, pairing or team does not
participate in a tournament (i.e. they are
withdrawn prior to the start of their first
match), all bets (including outright, quarter or
special bets) involving that player, pairing or
team will be voided and stakes will be refunded
accordingly.
A tournament must be completed in full for all
markets relating to the outcome to stand. This
includes: Name The Finalists, To Reach/Not to
Reach Xth Round, Big Guns, Stage of Elimination
or any tournament specials. For the Stage of
Elimination and Not to Reach the Final markets,
a player must play at least one point during the
tournament for bets to stand.
Total Games/Point Spread (Handicap) related
markets: For the purposes of such markets, a
tie-break is counted as one game. Forfeited
points or games will count for final settlement
purposes.
Champions Tie Breaks: In some competitions,
matches that reach one set all are decided by a
Champions tie-break.
If a match is decided by a Champions
tie-break then the Champions tie-break
will be considered to be the third set.
Where, for a match involving a
champions’ tie break, we
erroneously accept bets on the winner of
a specified game in the final set, on
the total number of games in such set or
on handicap markets relating to such set
(or similar), the bets in question will
be void.
For the purpose of bets taken relating
to Total Games market or Game Handicaps
market for the match, the champions
tie-break will be considered to be one
game.
A Champions tie-break will not count
towards any 'Will there be a
Tie-Break' markets and will not be
treated as a tie-break for any markets
involving the occurrence of a number of
tie-breaks.
Game or Point related markets: If the wrong
player has been set as the server for any
individual game (Current or Next Game) then all
markets relating to the outcome of that specific
game will be void, regardless of the result. In
the event of a game not being completed, all
bets on the game will be void with the exception
of Game to Deuce if the result has already been
determined.
Games / Alternative Games / Exact Games Won
Margin: These markets are resulted on the
absolute difference in total games won by player
A and total games won by player B. For example,
if Player A wins 17 games and Player B wins 19
games during the match, the market will be
settled based on the absolute difference (which
is 2).
Aces / Double Fault related markets: The match
must be completed for bets to stand, except in
the case of the first ace or first double fault
markets. These markets will be settled on the
basis of official scoring providers or official
tournament websites (and in the event of any
discrepancies between data of official scoring
providers and that of tournament websites, the
data of tournament websites will take
precedence). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for
ace/double fault related markets:
ITF matches will be settled on the basis
of data from Sportradar and the
tournament website of the ITF (and, in
the event of any discrepancy, the data
of the tournament website of the ITF
will take precedence); and
ATP and WTA matches will be settled on
the basis of data from IMG and the
tournament websites of ATP/WTA (and, in
the event of any discrepancy, the data
of the tournament websites of the
ATP/WTA, as applicable, will take
precedence).
Where a handicap is attributed to an entire
market (e.g. the market is entitled “To
Win - 1.5 sets)” and there is no handicap
attributed to any individual selection within
that market, the relevant handicap will be
applied to each first named selection. For
example, if a market is entitled “To Win -
1.5 sets” and one of the selections within
the market is “Federer V Nadal”, if
the final score of the match is “Federer 3
sets, Nadal 2 sets”, that selection will
be settled as if it the final score had been
“Federer 1.5 sets, Nadal 2 sets”
(i.e. any bets on Federer will be settled as
losing bets and any bets on Nadal will be
settled as winning bets). Unless otherwise
stated in the name/heading of a market or
selection, totals/handicaps apply to the overall
match (rather than to sets or games).
Due to possible delays or inaccuracies, the
FanDuel LIVE scoreboard may not be reflective of
actual LIVE scores and therefore should not be
solely relied upon in determining whether to
place a bet or not
Volleyball
In the event of a match starting but not being
completed then all markets will be void, unless
an official result is declared, in which case
all bets will stand.
The name/heading of a competition amounts to
evidence of what a bet refers to. For example,
if you place a bet on “Italy vs
Brazil” under the competition name/heading
U20 World Cup, the bet will apply to the match
between Italy and Brazil which is part of the
U20 World Cup.
In case of a match being cancelled or postponed
to after midnight (local time) on the scheduled
start date, all bets will be voided.
All markets will be settled with the final
result by volleyball rules. The only exceptions
are for matches that are agreed by the laws of
the competition in which they are competing or
agreed by both sides prior to kick-off. In such
cases, all bets will be settled at the end of
the agreed rules.
For competitions whereby a golden set is played
to determine which team/player progresses, the
golden set will not count towards settlement of
an individual match. Golden Set will only apply
to tournament/Outright Betting.
Winter sports (which may include, amongst others,
Alpine Skiing, Biathlon, Cross-Country Skiing and
Ski-Jumping)
Participants must pass the starting line/gate in
order for bets to stand otherwise bets will be
voided and stakes returned.
Where there is a presentation ceremony, markets
will be settled on the official result of the
relevant governing body at the time of the
ceremony, regardless of any subsequent
disqualification or amendment to the result.
If there is no presentation ceremony, outcomes
will be determined in accordance with the
official result of the relevant governing body,
regardless of any subsequent disqualification or
amendment to the result.
If an event is abandoned, postponed or
cancelled, all bets will be void unless the
event is completed at the same venue within 48
hours of the official scheduled completion date;
or a result is 'called' by the
relevant governing body.
FanDuel Sportsbook General Rules will apply for
'match bets'. However in respect of
"Nordic Combined" if all competitors
involved in the match bet do not start both
sections of the event (ski jumping and cross
country) then bets will be void.
Part C - Master Offer and Promotions Terms
These “Master Offer and Promotions Terms”
(“Master Promotional Terms”) apply to all
FanDuel Sportsbook promotions (each, a
“Promotion”). Each promotion may have additional
terms and/or rules of participation (“Promotion
Terms”), which will be posted or otherwise made
available to you at or near the place of the Promotion
announcement. The Promotion Term for each Promotion in which
you participate will be deemed incorporated into and form a
part of these Standard Promotional Terms. In the event of
any discrepancy or conflict between these Master Promotional
Terms and any Promotion Terms, then the specific Promotion
Terms shall govern and prevail. The Promotion Terms for each
Promotion in which you participate will be deemed
incorporated into and form a part of these Master
Promotional Terms. It is your responsibility to read the
Promotion Terms to determine whether or not your
participation, registration, or entry in the Promotion will
be valid or restricted, and to determine your participation
requirements.
Eligibility: Each Promotion is open
only to individuals who at the time and date of entry
are: (i) not an Excluded Person (as such term is defined
in Section 4.1 in Part A - General Terms and
Conditions); (ii) Account (as such term is defined in
Section 4.3 in Part A - General Terms and Conditions)
holders; (iii) physically located in the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts; (iv) are twenty-one (21) years of age or
older; and (v) meet any eligibility requirements
specifically set forth in the Promotion Terms.
Employees, officers and directors of BIU, its parent
company, and each of their respective affiliates,
subsidiaries, advertising and promotion agencies,
retailers, distributors, and each of such
employees’, officers’ and directors’
immediate family members and/or those living in the same
household (whether legally related or not) of each are
not eligible to participate in any Promotion or receive
the advertised Bonus (defined below). Additionally, BIU
reserves the right to refuse or otherwise restrict your
eligibility to participate in any Promotion for any
reason, in our sole discretion, including based on your
wagering patterns or wagering history or if you failed
to take advantage of any previous Promotions in good
faith. Void where prohibited by law. If BIU becomes
aware of a participant who, in the course of
participating in a Promotion, has become able to
guarantee wins and/or profits with no or only minimal
risk, and/or benefits from a Promotion by participating
through more than one (1) Account, and/or displays
irregular or unusual playing or betting patterns which
BIU deems to be abusive, BIU may elect to do any one or
more of the following: (i) close the customer’s
Account(s); (ii) invalidate the transactions or game
play which was in contravention of this term; and/or
(iii) withhold the customer’s Bonus, including
winnings from such transactions or game play.
How to Qualify: To qualify for a
Promotion, during the offer period set forth in the
Promotion Terms (the “
Promotion Period”), eligible
individuals must visit your Account and follow the
instructions in the Promotion Terms on how to
participate. All Promotions are limited to one (1) entry
per person. To ensure that the Promotion is limited to
one (1) entry per person, we reserve the right to only
permit one (1) customer to participate from each
household address, IP address, email address, telephone
number, same payment account (e.g., debit card) or
shared computer (e.g., public library or workplace).
Multiple Accounts: Multiple entries in
any Promotion will not be accepted; neither will entries
made in breach of these Master Promotional Terms or the
specific Promotion Terms. BIU reserves the right to
exclude any participant from Promotions if BIU believes
that a participant has tried to enter a Promotion by
using more than one username, Account or is otherwise
engaging in any fraudulent or illegal activity
(including participation that would be in breach of the
law in Massachusetts), whether or not that participant
would or might have won any Bonus but for such activity.
Where multiple entries/Accounts have been used, BIU
reserves the right to cancel these Accounts and withhold
payment of the Bonus or any other Promotion benefits.
Bonus: After you take the required
action as described in the Promotion Terms, you may
qualify to receive a bonus or reward (each a
“Bonus”), as explained in
the Promotion Terms or in the advertising for the
Promotion. Whether you are entitled to receive your
Bonus will be determined by BIU in BIU’s sole and
absolute discretion. Unless otherwise set forth in the
Promotion Terms, Bonus recipient(s) will receive their
Bonus within seven (7) days from the end of the
Promotion Period, which will be credited to
recipient’s Account. Bonus recipients will be
solely responsible for all federal, state, and local
taxes, and for any other fees or costs associated with
the Bonus they receive, regardless of whether the Bonus,
in whole or in part, is used. The Bonus value may be
reported for tax purposes as required by law. Limit one
(1) Bonus per person. Any Bonus issued and that is
useable for a stated limited time period shall be valid
for a period of seven (7) days from the date of issuance
unless otherwise stated in the specific Promotion Terms.
Any remaining/unused Bonus at the end of the stated
period will be removed from the player’s Account.
Bonuses may be awarded as site credit, bonus
bets/free bets, or enhanced pricing tokens. If you
receive a bonus in site credit, for any wager you
place using site credit you will receive as
withdrawable cash both the winnings and the stake of
such wager. If you receive a bonus in bonus
bets/free bets, for any wager you place using bonus
bets/free bets you will receive as withdrawable cash
only the winnings of such wager (you will not
receive the stake). For any Bonuses awarded in the
form of a physical prize, prizes are
non-transferable, with no cash redemptions,
equivalents or substitutions, except at BIU’s
sole and absolute discretion. All prize details not
specified in these Master Promotional Terms will be
determined in BIU’s sole and absolute
discretion. Prize details and availability are
subject to change and prize provider’s rules
and restrictions, and in the event that BIU is
unable to provide the winner with his or her
prize(s), BIU may elect to provide winners with the
approximate value of such item in cash or award an
alternate prize of comparable or greater value. All
prize(s) are awarded “AS IS” and without
warranty of any kind, express or implied (including,
without limitation, any implied warranty of
merchantability or fitness for a particular
purpose). The approximate retail value
(“ARV”) of a prize is based on available
information provided to BIU and the value of any
prize awarded to a winner may be reported for tax
purposes as required by law. Unclaimed prizes will
be forfeited. Prizes, if legitimately claimed, will
be awarded. The BIU Parties (defined below) are not
responsible for and will not replace any lost,
mutilated or stolen prize(s) or any prize that is
undeliverable or does not reach the winner because
of an incorrect or changed address. If a winner does
not accept or use the entire prize, the unaccepted
or unused part of the prize will be forfeited and
the BIU Parties will have no further obligation with
respect to that prize or portion of the prize. No
more than the stated prizes will be awarded. The BIU
Parties are not responsible for and winner will not
receive the difference, in any, between the actual
value of the prizes at the time of award and the
stated ARV in these Official Rules or in any
Promotion-related correspondence or material.
Administration: The BIU Parties
expressly reserve the right to amend, suspend or
terminate any Promotion at any time without prior notice
or consent. Administration of a Promotion is at the sole
discretion of the BIU Parties. Any questions relating to
eligibility, these Master Promotional Terms and
Conditions or any other questions concerning a Promotion
will be resolved at the sole discretion of the BIU
Parties and their decisions will be final and binding
with respect thereto. No groups, clubs, corporations,
companies, partnerships, or organizations may
participate in any Promotion or reproduce or distribute

Part D - Privacy Policy
Welcome! This privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”)
governs your use of the website
ma.sportsbook.fanduel.com
(including both mobile and online versions) (the
“Website”), the FanDuel Sportsbook mobile apps
(the “Betting Apps”), and your use of any
interactive features, services, widgets, plug-ins,
applications, content, downloads and/or other online
services that we own and control and that post a link to
this Privacy Policy (collectively with the Websites and the
Betting Apps, the “Services”), which are made
available by Betfair Interactive US LLC (“BIU”,
“FanDuel Sportsbook”, “we”
“our” or “us”). This Privacy Policy
does not apply to data we receive from third parties, unless
we combine such data with Personal Information (defined
below) that we have ourselves collected under this Privacy
Policy. This Privacy Policy does not apply to our data
collection activities offline or otherwise outside of our
Services (unless otherwise stated below), and does not
govern the data practices of third parties that may interact
with our Services. To the extent we provide you notice
on our Services of different or additional privacy policies
or practices (e.g., at the point of our collection), those
additional terms shall govern such data collection and
use. In addition, please review the Services’
Terms and Conditions, which governs
your use of the Services. By using our Services you consent
to our Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions and our
collection, use and sharing of your information and data,
and other activities, as described below. If you do not
agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not
provide us with any Personal Information and do not use this
Services.

The Full Detailed Privacy Policy
What Information Do the Services Collect?
Information You Provide to Us
On the Services, we may ask you to provide us,
or our service providers, with certain
categories of information, such as: (1)
personally identifiable information, which is
information that identifies you personally, such
as your first and last your name, e-mail
address, mailing address, telephone numbers,
social security number, birth date, debit card
or bank account information (“
Personal Information”);
and (2) demographic information, such as
information about your gender (“Demographic Information”). We may collect this information
through various forms and in various places on
the Services, including if you register for an
account, through “contact us” forms,
or when you otherwise interact with the
Services. If we combine Demographic Information
with the Personal Information we collect
directly from you on the Services, we will treat
the combined data as Personal Information under
this Privacy Policy.
Information Collected and Stored As You
Access and Use the Services
In addition to any Personal Information or other
information that you choose to submit to us via
our Services, we and our third-party service
providers may use a variety of technologies that
automatically (or passively) store or collect
certain information whenever you visit or
interact with the Services (“
Usage Information”). This
Usage Information may be stored or accessed
using a variety of technologies that may be
downloaded to your personal computer, browser,
laptop, tablet, mobile phone or other device (a
“Device”) whenever
you visit or interact with our Services. When
your Device contacts our web servers (for
example, when you visit this Services or view an
HTML e-mail), our web servers automatically
collect Usage Information. We also may determine
the applicable technology available in order to
serve you the most appropriate version of a web
page, e-mail, advertising or promotional
announcement or similar service. To the extent
we associate Usage Information with your
Personal Information we collect directly from
you on the Services, we will treat it as
Personal Information.
This Usage Information may include:
your IP address, UDID or other unique
identifier (“Device
Identifier”). A Device Identifier
is a number that is automatically
assigned to your Device used to access
the Services, and our computers identify
your Device by its Device Identifier;
your Device functionality (including
browser type, operating system,
hardware, mobile network information);
the areas within our Services that you
visit and your activities there,
including remembering you and your
preferences;
your Device location;
your Device characteristics; and
certain other Device data, including the
time of day, referrer data that
identifies the web page visited prior
and subsequent to visiting our Services
among other information.
We may use various methods and
technologies to store or collect Usage
Information (“Tracking
Technologies”). Tracking
Technologies may set, change, alter or
modify settings or configurations on
your Device. A few of the Tracking
Technologies used on the Services,
include, without limitation, the
following (and subsequent technology and
methods later developed):
Browser Cookies. Like
many websites, we use browser
“cookies”. Cookies are a
website’s way of remembering who
you are. A cookie is a small text file
that is stored on your computer’s
hard drive or stored temporarily in your
computer’s memory. There are two
kinds of cookies: those that are
“session” oriented and those
that are “persistent”.
Session cookies delete from your
computer when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies retain information
for later use tomorrow, next week, next
month, or whenever they are set to
expire. We use cookies to help us to
identify account holders and to optimize
their experience on our Services. Also,
we will use cookies to monitor and
maintain information about your use of
the Services. Most web browsers accept
cookies automatically. You can delete
cookies manually or set your browser to
automatically delete cookies on a
pre-determined schedule. If you decline
to accept cookies, you may not be able
to take advantage of or participate in
certain features of the Services and
when you revisit our Services your
ability to limit cookies is subject to
your browser settings and limitations.
Regular cookies may generally be
disabled or removed by tools that are
available as part of most commercial
browsers, and in some but not all
instances can be blocked in the future
by selecting certain settings. Each
browser you use will need to be set
separately and different browsers offer
different functionality and options in
this regard.
Flash Cookies. Our
Services enable the use of the Adobe
Flash Player. Adobe’s Flash Player
is a commonly used software use by
websites that offer video and other
interactive content. By default, your
use of the Adobe Flash Player generates
“flash cookies” (also known
as “persistent identification
elements” or “local shared
objects”). Adobe provides a short
disclosure about Flash Cookies in its
End User License Agreement, stating:
“Use of the web players,
specifically the Flash Player, will
enable the software to store certain
user settings as a local shared object
on our computer. These settings are not
associated with you, but allow you to
configure certain settings within the
Flash Player.” The Adobe Flash
Player (and similar applications) use
flash cookies to remember user settings,
preferences and usage similar to the
browser cookies referenced above, but
flash cookies can store more information
than browser cookies and are managed
through a different interface than the
one provided by your web browser. You
can control the degree to which you
accept flash cookies by accessing your
Adobe Flash Player management tools
directly through the settings manager
for Adobe Flash, located at
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager.html.
If you do not allow flash cookies to
take any disc space on your computer,
you may not be able to take advantage of
or participate in certain features on
the Services. Users with a computer
running the Windows operating system can
view flash cookie files in this folder:
\Documents and
Settings\[username]\Application
Data\Macromedia\Flash Player. Users with
a computer running the Apple operating
system can view flash cookie files in
this folder:
/users/[username]/Library/Preferences/macromedia/Flash
Player. Flash cookies, or LSO files are
stored typically with an
“.SOL” extension. Although
the Adobe Flash Player is a commonly
used software used by websites that
offer video content and/or games, it is
not the only technology being used in
the ever-shifting online and mobile
content environment. HTML5 is an
increasingly popular web standard used
for presenting content, especially
content delivered to mobile devices.
HTML is the mark-up language used for
the World Wide Web. Almost all web pages
you visit on the internet are based
around HTML code. HTML5 is simply the
fifth and latest iteration of this
mark-up language that allows for more
interactive web pages. One of the real
benefits of HTML5 is its potential to
standardize the highly fragmented
rich-media universe. Some HTML5 code may
allow your response to advertising and
other activities to be monitored across
websites and such information to be
stored on your computer or mobile
device..
Web Beacons. Our web
pages, online services and e-mail
messages may contain a small graphic
image called a web beacon, which is
sometimes also called a “clear
gif”, that allows us to monitor
and collect certain limited information
about our users, such as the type of
browser requesting the web beacon, the
IP address of the computer that the web
beacon is sent to and the time the web
beacon was viewed. Web beacons can be
very small or invisible to the user,
but, in general, any electronic image
viewed as part of a web page or e-mail,
including HTML based content, can act as
a web beacon. We may use web beacons to
count visitors to our web pages or to
monitor how our users navigate our
Services, and we may include web beacons
in e-mail messages in order to count how
many of the messages we sent were
actually opened or acted upon. We use
web beacons to compile aggregate
statistics about our Services and our
marketing campaigns.
Embedded Scripts. An
embedded script is programming code that
is designed to collect information about
your interactions with the Services,
such as the links you click on. The code
is temporarily downloaded onto your
Device from our web server or a third
party service provider, is active only
while you are connected to the Services,
and is deactivated or deleted
thereafter.
Browser Fingerprinting.
Collection and analysis of information
from your Device, such as, without
limitation, your operating system,
plug-ins, system fonts and other data,
for purposes of identification.
ETag, or entity tag. A
feature of the cache in browsers. It is
an opaque identifier assigned by a web
server to a specific version of a
resource found at a URL. If the resource
content at that URL ever changes, a new
and different ETag is assigned. Used in
this manner ETags are a form of Device
Identifier. ETag tracking may generate
unique tracking values even where the
consumer blocks HTTP, Flash, and/or
HTML5 cookies.
Recognition Technologies.
Technologies, including application of
statistical probability to data sets,
which attempt to recognize or make
assumptions about users and devices
(e.g., that a user of multiple devices
is the same user).
We may use Tracking Technologies for a
variety of purposes, including:
Strictly Necessary. We
may use cookies or other Tracking
Technologies that we consider are
strictly necessary to allow you to use
and access our Services, including
cookies required to prevent fraudulent
activity, improve security or allow you
to make use of Services’
functionality.
Performance Related. We
may use cookies or other Tracking
Technologies that are useful in order to
assess the performance of the Services,
including as part of our analytic
practices or otherwise to improve the
content, ads, products or services
offered through the Services.
Functionality Related.
We may use cookies or other Tracking
Technologies that are required to offer
you enhanced functionality when
accessing the Services, including
identifying you when you use our
Services or keeping track of your
specified preferences.
Targeting Related. We
may use Tracking Technologies to deliver
content, including ads relevant to your
interests on our Services and thirdparty
services based on how you interact with
our advertisements and/or content. This
includes using Tracking Technologies to
understand the usefulness to you of the
content and ads that have been delivered
to you.
There may be other Tracking Technologies
now and later devised and used by us in
connection with the Services. Further,
third parties may use Tracking
Technologies in connection with our
Services, which may include the
collection of information about your
online activities over time and across
third-party websites or online services
as well as across your Devices. We may
not control those Tracking Technologies
and we are not responsible for them.
However, you consent to potentially
encountering third-party Tracking
Technologies in connection with use of
our Services and accept that our
statements under this Privacy Policy do
not apply to the Tracking Technologies
or practices of such third parties.
Location-Based Information
Our Services use location-based services in
order to locate you so we may verify your
location, deliver you relevant content and ads
based on your location as well as to share your
location with our vendors as part of the
location-based services we offer. Unless you
provide consent, this location data is collected
anonymously in a form that does not personally
identify you and is used by us and our partners
and licensees to provide and improve
location-based products and services. You should
consider the risks involved in disclosing your
location information to other people.
Information Third Parties Provide About You
We may receive information about you from your
friends and others that use the Services.
Additionally, we may, from time to time,
supplement the information we collect directly
from you on our Services with outside records
from third parties for various purposes,
including to enhance our ability to serve you,
to tailor our content to you and to offer you
opportunities that may be of interest to you. To
the extent we combine information we receive
from those sources with Personal Information we
collect on the Services, it will be treated as
Personal Information and we will apply this
Privacy Policy to such combined information,
unless we have disclosed otherwise. In no other
circumstances do our statements under this
Privacy Policy apply to information we receive
about you from third parties, even if they have
used our technology to collect it and share it
with us.
Interactions with Third-Party Services
The Service may include functionality that
allows certain kinds of interactions between the
Services and a third-party website or
application. The use of this functionality may
involve the third-party operator providing
certain information, including Personal
Information, to us. For example, we may provide
third-party sites’ interfaces or links on
the Services to facilitate your sending a
communication from the Services such as
facilitating emails, tweets or Facebook
postings. These third parties may share
information with us and they may also retain any
information used or provided in any such
communications or other activities and these
third parties’ practices are not subject
to our Privacy Policy. We may not control or
have access to your communications through these
third parties. Further, when you use third-party
sites or services, you are using their services
and not our services and they, not we, are
responsible for their practices. You should
review the applicable third-party privacy
policies before using such third-party tools on
our Services.
Information You Provide About a Third Party
You may send someone else a communication from
the Services, such as sending an invitation to a
friend. If so, the information you provide
(names, email addresses, etc.) is used to
facilitate the communication and is not used by
us for any other marketing purpose unless we
obtain consent from that person or we explicitly
say otherwise. Please be aware that when you use
any send-to-a-friend functionality on our
Services, your contact information, name or
username and message may be included in the
communication sent to your addressee(s). Some of
these tools may be third-party tools subject to
third-party privacy policies.
Do Not Track Disclosures
Various third parties are developing or have
developed signals or other mechanisms for the
expression of consumer choice regarding the
collection of information about an individual
consumer’s online activities over time and
across third-party websites or online services
(e.g., browser do not track signals). Currently,
we do not monitor or take any action with
respect to these signals or other mechanisms.
How Do We Use the Information Collected?
We may use your Personal Information, Demographic
Information or Usage Information that is subject to this
Privacy Policy:
to provide you with information such as to send
you electronic newsletters or to provide you
with special offers or promotional and marketing
materials on behalf of us or third parties,
including to let you know about new products,
services or upcoming contests, promotions or
events;
to protect and administer your Services account;
to process and track the results of your
gambling and other transactions you enter into
using the Services;
to verify your identity, including your accounts
on the Services;
manage risk, or to detect, prevent, and/or
remediate fraud or other potentially prohibited
or illegal activities;
manage and protect our information technology
infrastructure;
to provide the Services, including the gaming
opportunities available on the Services;
to improve the Services, marketing endeavors or
our offerings;
to customize your experience on the Services or
to serve you specific content or ads that are
relevant to you, including using your location
information to display advertisements for
businesses in your close vicinity;
to provide customer support, including to
resolve disputes, collect fees and troubleshoot
problems;
to contact you with regard to your use of the
Services and, in our discretion, changes to the
Services and/or Services’ policies;
to identify your product and Services
preferences so that you can be informed of new
or additional products, services and promotions;
to enable you to participate in a variety of the
Services’ features;
to improve the overall experience at the
Services;
to comply with our legal and regulatory
obligations;
for internal business purposes; and
for purposes disclosed at the time you provide
your information or as otherwise set forth in
this Privacy Policy.
How and When Do We Share Information With Third
Parties?
We may share non-Personal Information, including Usage
Information, such as aggregated user statistics, with
third parties. Further, we may share your Device
Identifiers with third parties along with data related
to you and your activities. Also, we may share your
Personal Information with third parties with whom we
have marketing or other relationships for the third
parties’ direct marketing purposes. Additionally,
in our continuous effort to provide services that we
believe you may find useful or of value, we may make
your Personal Information available to third parties
better facilitate your requests, provide more
personalized services and communicate separately with
you. BIU does not sell customer information to
advertisers or third party marketers. In addition, we
may share the information we have collected about you,
including Personal Information, as disclosed at the time
you provide your information and as described below or
otherwise in this Privacy Policy. BIU may additionally
disclose your information as follows:
When You Request Information From or Provide
Information to Third Parties
You may be presented with an option on our
Services to receive certain information and/or
marketing offers directly from third parties or
to have us send certain information to third
parties or give them access to it. If you choose
to do so, your Personal Information and other
information may be disclosed to such third
parties and all information you disclose will be
subject to the third-party privacy policies and
practices of such third parties. In addition,
third parties may store, collect or otherwise
have access to your information when you
interact with their Tracking Technologies,
content, tools, apps or ads on our Service or
link to them from our Service. This may include
using third-party tools such as Facebook,
Twitter, Pinterest or other third-party posting
or content sharing tools and by so interacting
you consent to such third party practices. We
are not responsible for the privacy policies and
practices of such third parties and, therefore,
you should review such third-party privacy
policies and practices of such third parties
prior to requesting information from or
otherwise interacting with them.
Third Parties Providing Services on our
Behalf
We may use third-party vendors to perform
certain services on behalf of us or the
Services, such as: (i) to assist us in Services
operations; (ii) to manage a database of
customer information; (iii) hosting the
Services; (iv) designing and/or operating the
Services’ features; (v) tracking the
Services’ activities and analytics; (vi)
enabling us to send you special offers or
perform other administrative services; (vii) to
process payments and deliver prizes; and (viii)
other services designed to assist us in
maximizing our business potential. For example,
from time to time, we will use the information
we collect to coordinate data entry and payments
with the company that provides you with
handicapping information, to coordinate
marketing/rewards programs with partner
racetracks, and to offer other enhancements to
the Services. We may provide these vendors with
access to user information, including Device
Identifiers and Personal Information, to carry
out the services they are performing for you or
for us. Third-party analytics and other service
providers may set and access their own Tracking
Technologies on your Device and they may
otherwise collect or have access to information
about you, potentially including Personal
Information, about you. We are not responsible
for those third party technologies or activities
arising out of them. However, some may offer you
certain choices regarding their practices, and
information we have been informed of regarding
such choices is available
here. We are not
responsible for the effectiveness of or
compliance with any third parties’ opt-out
options.
To Protect the Rights of BIU and Others
We may access, use, preserve, transfer and
disclose your information (including Device
Identifiers and Personal Information) to third
parties: (i) to satisfy any applicable law,
regulation, subpoenas, governmental requests or
legal process if in our good faith opinion such
is required or permitted by law; (ii) to protect
and/or defend the Services’
Terms and Conditions or
other policies applicable to the Services,
including investigation of potential violations
thereof; (iii) to protect the safety, rights,
property or security of the Services or any
third party; and/or (iv) to detect, prevent or
otherwise address fraud, security or technical
issues. Further, we may use IP address or other
Device Identifiers to identify users, and may do
so in cooperation with third parties such as
copyright owners, internet service providers,
wireless service providers and/or law
enforcement agencies, including disclosing such
information to third parties, all in our
discretion, subject to applicable law. Such
disclosures may be carried out without notice to
you. In circumstances where we inadvertently
obtain information that appears to pertain to
the commission of a crime or where we reasonably
believe that an emergency involving immediate
danger of death or serious physical injury to
any person exists, BIU may voluntarily disclose
the record or the contents of your
communications or other information about you to
law enforcement agencies and governmental
entities without providing you advance notice.
Upon receipt of an applicable search warrant or
administrative, grand jury or trial subpoena,
BIU may be required to disclose to the
government or law enforcement agencies, without
advance notice to you, the content of your
communications and other records relating to
your electronic communications, as well as the
following records: your name and address;
records of your online communication (including
session times and duration); how long you have
subscribed to our service(s) (including start
date) and the type(s) of service(s) utilized;
your telephone number or other subscriber
account identifying number(s), including any
Internet or network address(es) assigned to you
by our network; and the means and source of your
payment(s) (including any debit card or bank
account number).
Affiliates and Business Transfer
We may share your information, including your
Device Identifiers and Personal Information,
Demographic Information and Usage Information
with our parent, subsidiaries and affiliates,
including for their marketing or other purposes.
We also reserve the right to disclose and
transfer all such information: (i) to a
subsequent owner, co-owner or operator of the
Services or applicable database; or (ii) in
connection with a merger, consolidation,
restructuring, the sale of substantially all of
our interests and/or assets or other corporate
change, including, during the course of any due
diligence process.
What About Information I Disclose Publicly or to
Others?
User Content and Public Information
The Services may permit you to submit ideas,
photographs, video, audio recordings, computer
graphics, pictures, data, information about your
location, questions, comments, suggestions or
other content, including Personal Information
(collectively, “User Content”). We or others may store, display,
reproduce, publish, distribute or otherwise use
User Content online or offline in any media or
format (currently existing or hereafter
developed) and may or may not attribute it to
you. Others may have access to this User Content
and may have the ability to share it with third
parties. Please think carefully before deciding
what information you share, including Personal
Information, in connection with your User
Content. Please note that BIU does not control
who will have access to the information that you
choose to make public, and cannot ensure that
parties who have access to such publicly
available information will respect your privacy
or keep it secure. We are not responsible for
the privacy or security of any information that
you make publicly available on the Services or
what others do with information you share with
them on the Services. We are not responsible for
the accuracy, use or misuse of any User Content
that you disclose or receive from third parties
through the Services.
Name and Likeness
We may also publish your name, voice, likeness
and other Personal Information that is part of
your User Content, and we may use the content,
or any portion of the content, for advertising,
marketing, publicity and promotional activities.
For full terms and conditions regarding User
Content you submit to the Services, please
review our Services’
Terms and Conditions.
Ads and Information About You
We and third parties such as network advertisers and
ad exchanges may serve advertisements on the
Services or across the Internet and may use third
party analytics service providers to evaluate and
provide us and/or third parties with information
about the use of these ads on third party sites and
viewing of ads and of our content. Network
advertisers are third parties that display
advertisements, which may be based on your
activities across the Internet and mobile media
(“ Behavioral Ads”).
Behavioral Ads enable us to target advertisements to
you for products and services in which we believe
you might be interested. If you object to receiving
Behavioral Ads from us on third party sites, you can
learn more about your ability to limit Behavioral
Ads below.
Our third party ad network and exchange providers,
the advertisers and/or traffic measurement services
may themselves set and access their own Tracking
Technologies on your Device and track certain
behavioral Usage Information via a Device
Identifier. These third party Tracking Technologies
may be set to, among other things: (a) help deliver
advertisements to you that you might be interested
in; (b) prevent you from seeing the same
advertisements; and (c) understand the usefulness of
the advertisements that have been delivered to you.
You acknowledge and agree that associated technology
may access and use your Device and may set or change
settings on your Device in connection with the
associated operations. Note that any images (or any
other parts of content) served by third parties in
association with third-party ads or other content
may serve as web beacons, which enable third parties
to carry out the previously described activities.
Third-party Tracking Technologies are not controlled
by us, even if they use our technology to help store
or collect data. Statements regarding our practices
do not apply to the methods for collecting
information used by these third parties or the use
of the information that such third parties collect.
We do however work with third parties to make
efforts to have you provided with information on
their practices and any available opportunity to
exercise choice. The relevant third party’s
terms of service, privacy policy, permissions,
notices and choices should be reviewed regarding
their collection, storage and sharing practices. We
make no representations regarding the policies or
practices of third party advertisers or advertising
networks or exchanges or related third parties.
We may use third-party advertising companies to
target advertisements to you on our Services, across
the web, on your mobile Device and on any of your
other Devices, based on the information we have
collected from and about you, as well as information
relating to your and other users’ visits to
this and other websites and online services. To do
so, these companies may place or recognize a unique
cookie on your browser (including through the use of
pixel tags) or recognize an identifier associated
with your mobile device. These companies may also
use these Tracking Technologies, along with personal
information they or we collect on the different
devices you use, to recognize you across the Devices
you use, such as a mobile device and a laptop or
other computer. Some third parties may offer you
certain choices regarding their practices, and
information we have been informed of regarding such
choices is available here.
Further, while sites use a variety of companies to
serve advertisements, you may wish to visit
http://www.networkadvertising.org/optout_nonppii.asp,
which provides information regarding this practice
by Network Advertising Initiative
(“NAI”) members, and
your choices regarding having this information used
by these companies, including the
“opt-out” procedures of NAI members.
Opting out of one or more NAI members only means
that those NAI members no longer will be allowed
under their own rules to deliver Behavioral Ads to
you, but does not mean you will no longer receive
any targeted content and/or ads. Also, if your
browsers are configured to reject cookies when you
visit this opt-out page, or you subsequently erase
your cookies, use a different Device or change web
browsers, your NAI opt-out may not, or may no
longer, be effective. You may also opt-out of
receiving Behavioral Ads on participating sites and
services by visiting the Digital Advertising
Alliance (“DAA”)
website at http://www.aboutads.info/choices. You may
download the AppChoices app at
www.aboutads.info/appchoices to opt out in mobile
apps. Similar limitations may apply to the DAA
opt-out. We are not responsible for effectiveness of
or compliance with any third parties’ opt-out
options or programs.
Does Third-Party Content, Links to Third-Party Sites
and/or Third-Party Apps Appear on the Services?
When you are on the Services you may be directed to
other sites and apps that are operated and controlled by
third parties that we do not control such as merchants
who directly sell products and services to you. We are
not responsible for the data collection and privacy
practices employed by any of these third parties or
their sites or apps and they may be tracking you across
multiple online services and may be sharing the results
of that tracking with us and/or others. These third
parties may have their own terms of service, privacy
policies or other policies and ask you to agree to the
same. For example, if you “click” on a link,
the “click” may take you off the Services
onto a different location. These other online services
may associate their Tracking Technologies with you,
independently collect information about you, including
Personal Information, and may or may not have their own
published privacy policies. We are not responsible for
these third-party privacy policies or the practices of
third-party owners. Be sure to review any available
policies before submitting any personally identifiable
information to a third-party online service or otherwise
interacting with it and exercise caution in connection
with these services. We also encourage you to note when
you leave our Services and to review the third-party
privacy policies of all third-party locations and
exercise caution in connection with them.
How Do I Change My Information and Communications
Preferences?
You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the
information you submit to us, such as your contact
information provided as part of registration. The
Services may allow you to review, correct or update
Personal Information you have provided through the
Services’ registration forms or otherwise by
updating your account, and you may provide registration
updates and changes by contacting us by email at:
sportsbook@fanduel.com
. If so, we will make good faith efforts to make
requested changes in our then active databases as soon
as reasonably practicable (but we may retain prior
information as business records). Please note that it is
not always possible to completely remove or delete all
of your information from our databases and that residual
data may remain on backup media or for other reasons.
When you edit your Personal Information or change your
preferences on the Services, information that you remove
may persist internally for BIU’s administrative
purposes. You may cancel or modify our email marketing
communications you receive from us by following the
instructions contained within our promotional emails.
This will not affect subsequent subscriptions and if
your opt-out is limited to certain types of emails the
opt-out will be so limited. Please note that we reserve
the right to send you certain communications relating to
your account or use of our Services, such as
administrative and Service announcements and these
transactional account messages may be unaffected if you
choose to opt-out from receiving our marketing
communications.

What About Data Retention?
BIU is committed to only retaining Personal Information
for a period of time that is necessary to fulfill a
legitimate business purpose and deleting or
de-identifying the Personal Information thereafter. The
legitimate business purposes for which we retain
Personal Information are described in Section 2 above
and throughout this Privacy Policy but may additionally
include, without limitation: to provide, develop and
improve the products and the services we make available
through the Services, to maintain the security,
integrity and operation of the Services, to comply with
our legal and regulatory obligations and other third
party requirements, to resolve disputes, and to enforce
our agreements, to prevent fraud or criminal activity,
to maintain business records and for other purposes we
determine in our sole discretion. We destroy or
de-identify Personal Information that is no longer
necessary for the legitimate business purpose for which
it was originally collected unless there is a legitimate
request or order to inspect the information still
outstanding or the information remains in routine
records that are periodically discarded under our
document retention policies. The Personal Information
that you have provided us is maintained in our
management information system and billing systems, and
is updated as new information is added. Accounting and
billing records are retained for ten (10) years for tax
and accounting purposes or until the relevant income tax
years for which the document was created have been
closed for income tax purposes and/or all appeals have
been exhausted. Records may remain on file even after
you have terminated your account on our Services.
Subject to applicable law, we may also keep records to
facilitate collection and to evaluate credit worthiness.
What Should Parents Know About Children?
We understand the importance of protecting
children’s privacy in the interactive world. We
are a general audience service and do not use the
Services to knowingly collect personal information from
children under the age of thirteen (13) that requires
parental notice and consent under the Children’s
Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”)
without such parental consent. If you are under
twenty-one (21) years of age, you are not permitted to
use the Service and should not send any information
about yourself to us through the Service.
In the event that we become aware that we have
collected personal information from anyone under the
age of twenty-one (21), we will dispose of that
information in accordance with COPPA and other
applicable laws and regulations. If you are a parent
or guardian and you believe that your child under
the age of thirteen (13) has provided us with
personal information without COPPA-required consent,
please contact us at:
sportsbook@fanduel.com.
What About Security?
We endeavor to incorporate commercially reasonable
safeguards to help protect and secure your Personal
Information. However, no data transmission over the
Internet, mobile networks, wireless transmission or
electronic storage of information can be guaranteed to
be 100% secure. Please note that we cannot ensure the
security of any information you transmit to us, and you
use our Service and provide us with your information at
your own risk. We utilize the industry standard, Secure
Socket Layer (SSL)-capable web browsers support
encryption technology that helps prevent unauthorized
users from viewing or manipulating your Personal
Information as it travels over the Internet.

information); internet or other
network or device activity (such as

recording); inference data about

you to make certain requests about
your personal information.
Specifically, the CCPA allows you to

of personal information we
collect or disclose about you;
the categories of sources of
such information; the business
or commercial purpose for
collecting your personal

We will consider all requests and
provide our response within the time
period stated by applicable law.
Please note, however, that certain
information may be exempt from such
requests in some circumstances,
which may include if we need to keep
processing your information or to
comply with a legal obligation. We
will let you know where this is the
case or if certain rights
don’t apply in your country or
state of residence. We also will
take reasonable steps to verify your
identity before responding to a
request, which might include, at a
minimum, depending on the
sensitivity of the information you
are requesting and the type of
request you are making, verifying
your name, email address, and date

such request or a power of attorney.
We may also follow up with you to
verify your identity before
processing the authorized
agent’s request.
Additionally, exercising your
deletion right may mean that you may
no longer be able to use the
Service.

information regarding your legal
rights under California law or would
like to exercise any of them, please

Notice of Right to Opt Out of Sale
of Personal Information
California residents may opt out of
the “sale” of their
personal information. California law
broadly defines “sale”
in a way that includes when we share
your information with third parties
to provide you with offers and
promotions that we believe may be of
interest to you. It also may include
allowing third parties to receive
certain information, such as cookies
IP address and/or browsing behavior,
to deliver targeted advertising on
the Services or other services.
Advertising, including targeted
advertising, enables us to provide
you certain content for free and
allows us to provide you offers
relevant to you.
Depending on what Services you use,
we may provide the following
categories of information to third
parties for these purposes:
For online targeted advertising
purposes: demographic and
statistical information, device
information and identifiers,
connection and usage data,
geolocation, and social media
information.
For sharing with third parties
to send you relevant offers and
promotions: contact and account
registration information;
demographic and statistical
information, and geolocation.
If you would like to opt out of
our use of your information for
such purposes that are
considered a “sale”
under California law, you may do
so as outlined on the following
page:
Do Not Sell My Personal
Information. You can also submit a sale
opt-out request by emailing us
at
sportsbook@fanduel.com. Please note that we do not
knowingly sell the personal
information of minors under 16
years of age without
legally-required affirmative
authorization.
Privacy Information for Nevada Residents
Under Nevada law, certain Nevada consumers
may opt out of the sale of “covered
information” for monetary
consideration to a person for that person to
license or sell such information to
additional persons. “Covered
information” includes first and last
name, address, email address, phone number,
Social Security Number, or an identifier
that allows a specific person to be
contacted either physically or online.
We do not engage in such activity; however,
if you are a Nevada resident who has
purchased services from us, you may submit a
request to opt out of any potential future
sales under Nevada law by contacting
sportsbook@fanduel.com. Please note we will take reasonable steps
to verify your identity and the authenticity
of the request. Once verified, we will
maintain your request in the event our
practices change.
What About Changes to the Privacy Policy?
We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy at
any time. Any changes will be effective immediately upon
the posting of the revised Privacy Policy and your use
of our Service indicates your consent to the privacy
policy posted at the time of use. However, we will not
use your previously collected Personal Information in a
manner materially different than represented at the time
it was collected without your consent. To the extent any
provision of this Privacy Policy is found by a competent
tribunal to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision
shall be severed to the extent necessary for the
remainder to be valid and enforceable.
