Our Sportsbook Settlement Process, Step by Step

When an event ends, our sportsbook engine reads the official result from the league's verified data feed and grades each bet automatically. NFL point spreads settle against the final score, including overtime. NBA player props — like points scored or assists — settle on official box scores posted by the league. MLB run lines use the official final score, and extra innings

count. Same-game parlays require every leg to settle before the combined result posts to your account. If a game is postponed and not replayed within the window defined in our rules, the bet is voided and your stake is returned in full.

SETTLEMENT HELP PATHS

Need Help With a Settled Bet?

If a settlement result looks off or a result hasn't posted when you expect it, here are the three ways to get it sorted fast. We keep settlement disputes moving so your account balance stays accurate and your next wager isn't held up.

Live Chat Support Open the live chat tab in your account and reference your bet slip ID. Our team checks the official result feed and can flag a manual review on the spot.
Bet Slip History Every wager you place lives in your bet slip history. Check the status column — Pending, Won, Lost, Void, or Push — before reaching out so you have the exact details ready.
Account Wallet Check Winning payouts post to your account wallet automatically after settlement. If the amount looks wrong, screenshot the bet slip and send it through the support ticket form for a recorded review.
FAIR SETTLEMENT STANDARDS

How We Keep Settlement Consistent and Fair

Settlement accuracy isn't just a policy — it's how we keep your account moving without friction. Every rule below reflects how we actually grade bets, not boilerplate language borrowed from somewhere else.

Official Data Feeds Only

We pull results from verified league data sources — NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL — not third-party scores. That means settlement reflects what the league actually recorded, not what a box score aggregator says.

Overtime and Extra Innings Included

For NFL and NBA bets, overtime counts toward the final result. MLB run lines and totals include extra innings unless your bet slip explicitly states regulation time only.

Push and Void Handled Cleanly

A push returns your original stake in full — no deductions, no fees. A voided leg inside a parlay is removed, and the parlay pays at the odds of the remaining legs.

Same-Game Parlay Integrity

Same-game parlay legs that are correlated in ways that breach our rules are flagged before acceptance, not voided after the game. What you confirm is what we honor.

Sportsbook Settlement Terms You Should Know

These are the terms that show up on your bet slip and in settlement emails. Plain definitions, no filler.

What does 'Push' mean in sports betting?

A push happens when the final result lands exactly on the point spread or total you wagered. Your stake is returned in full and the bet is graded as a tie — no win, no loss.

What is a 'Void' bet?

A voided bet is one that cannot be settled — usually because the event was canceled, postponed beyond the replay window, or a market was listed in error. Your stake is refunded automatically.

What does 'Action' mean for a postponed game?

Action means your bet stands even if tip-off or kickoff is delayed, as long as the game is played within the window our rules specify. Check the bet slip for the action window on each wager.

What is a 'Moneyline' settlement?

Moneyline bets settle purely on which team wins. Overtime and playoff periods count. There is no spread — the final score just needs your picked team on the winning side.

What does 'Graded' mean on a bet slip?

Graded means settlement is complete. A bet marked Graded has been reviewed against the official result and recorded as Won, Lost, Void, or Push in your account.

What is 'Result Pending' on my bet slip?

Result Pending appears when the game has ended but official stats or a league confirmation are still processing. Most bets clear within minutes of the final buzzer or whistle.

Common Questions About How Bets Settle

Real questions from people who want to know where their money stands after the game. We keep our answers direct.

Most bets settle within a few minutes of the official result posting. Same-game parlays may take slightly longer because every leg must grade before the combined payout is calculated and credited.

Yes. NFL point spread and moneyline bets include overtime unless your bet slip explicitly states 'regulation time only.' Check the market description on your slip before confirming the wager.

The voided leg is removed from the parlay and the remaining legs stay active. Your payout is recalculated at the odds of the legs that settled, and the voided leg's contribution is stripped out.

Yes. Open live chat and share your bet slip ID. Our team compares the grade against the official data feed and escalates a manual review if there is a discrepancy worth correcting.

Player props — passing yards, points scored, assists, home runs — settle on stats from the league's official box score. If a stat is corrected by the league after settlement, we follow the updated official record.

If a game does not reach the official completion threshold defined in our rules — typically five innings for MLB or halftime for NFL — the bet is voided and your stake is returned to your account wallet.
