WHAT IS POINTS BETTING?
Points Betting is a new, more exciting way to bet where your winnings or losses from a bet are not determined until the very end of a game. Points Betting allows you to win big if your sports predictions are correct.

Market caps
All markets have max win and max loss levels displayed in the bet slip at time of bet placement so you will always know what your potential winnings will be, as well as what your losses could equate to if your bet goes against you.
Market info
All betting markets have information boxes that explain how each market works, including examples and any other information relevant to a particular betting type.
Withheld Levels
We withhold an amount at time of bet placement to cover a proportion of the risk from a particular bet. This withheld amount is displayed in the bet slip when placing a bet.
Stop losses
For certain markets we offer the ability for you to reduce your potential losses from a bet. This will also reduce your potential winnings.
For example, if you backed the Timberwolves -5 and you set a stop loss at 12pts. If they lost by 20pts at the line you wouldn’t lose 20 times stake. You would lose only 12 times stake. If they happen to win easily at the line, the winnings will also be reduced.
