Betting Rules

1. General information

These Betting Rules apply to betting activity made through Spinline Casino where the relevant service is available to you. They are intended to explain the general principles that apply to wagers, game play and the settlement of results. A particular sport, event, market, casino game or promotion may also have additional rules. If a specific rule conflicts with a general rule, the specific rule for that product or market will normally apply.

You are responsible for reading the applicable rules before placing a bet. By submitting a wager, you confirm that you understand the relevant market, odds, selection, stake and any conditions displayed on the website. If you do not understand how a bet works, do not place it until you have obtained enough information to make an informed decision.

These rules do not change any applicable law, regulatory requirement, privacy notice, general terms and conditions or responsible gambling information that may apply to your use of Spinline Casino. Players in Australia should make sure that online gambling is lawful for them in their location and should consider any local restrictions before using a betting service.

Definitions

• A bet or wager is an instruction to risk funds on the outcome of a market, game or event.
• A selection is the outcome or option chosen by the player.
• Odds are the displayed price or return calculation associated with a selection.
• A market is a group of selections relating to a particular event, game or outcome.
• Settlement is the process of determining the result of a bet and applying any resulting win, loss, refund or void status.

2. Accounts and placing bets

You must use your own account when placing bets. Account details, payment credentials and login information must be kept secure and must not be shared with another person. You are responsible for activity carried out through your account unless you notify Spinline Casino promptly that your account may have been accessed without permission.

You must meet the applicable minimum age requirement and provide accurate information when creating or using an account. Spinline Casino may need to verify your identity, age, location, source of funds or other account information. Betting activity, withdrawals or access to some services may be restricted while verification is incomplete.

A bet is generally treated as accepted only when it has been successfully submitted and recorded by the betting system. An amount shown in a bet slip or on a confirmation screen may not mean that the wager has been accepted. You should check your account history or bet receipt after placing a bet and keep records of important transactions.

Before confirming a wager, check the selection, market, stake, odds, bet type and any displayed terms. Once accepted, a bet will generally remain active and cannot be changed or withdrawn unless the website specifically provides a cash-out, cancellation or other adjustment feature. Any such feature may be unavailable, delayed or subject to separate conditions.

• Do not place a bet if the information on the bet slip appears incorrect or incomplete.
• Do not repeatedly submit the same bet when a page is slow or a transaction appears delayed.
• Do not attempt to place bets through technical methods, automated tools or other means that interfere with the normal operation of the website.
• Do not use another person’s account, payment method or identity information.
• Do not place a bet on behalf of another person or allow another person to control your account.

The minimum and maximum stake for a bet may depend on the product, market, account, payment method, applicable law or risk controls. Any available limits should be checked before confirmation. A displayed maximum payout, stake restriction or other limit may apply even if the potential return shown on an earlier screen is different.

3. Odds, bet types and game outcomes

The odds displayed when a bet is accepted are normally used to calculate the potential return. Odds can change before acceptance because of market activity, new information, trading decisions or system updates. The odds shown at the time a wager is actually accepted may therefore differ from the odds first viewed by the player.

Different bet types have different conditions. A single bet normally relates to one selection. A multiple or combination bet normally requires more than one selection to be successful, subject to the rules of that bet type. Each-way, handicap, totals, first or last result, outright, live and special markets may have additional definitions. Always read the market description before confirming a wager.

For casino games, the game rules, paytable, displayed instructions and outcome-generation process for the particular game apply. A result is determined by the game system and is not changed by a player’s previous wins, losses, stake size or playing pattern. Unless the specific game rules state otherwise, previous results do not predict or influence the next result.

For sports and other real-world events, settlement is generally based on the official result or official data source used for the relevant market. The applicable rules may specify whether a result is taken at the end of normal time, after extra time, after a particular stage or according to another stated definition. A result may be amended if the original result is later corrected by the relevant authority.

Live and in-play betting

Live betting involves placing a wager while an event is in progress. Information, odds and market availability can change quickly. Delays may occur between an event happening, being displayed and being reflected in the betting system. A bet may be rejected, suspended or accepted at changed odds where the market has moved before acceptance.

You are responsible for considering the risks of live betting, including incomplete information, delayed coverage and rapidly changing prices. A live market may be suspended during or after a significant event, and a bet placed close to a suspension may be reviewed under the applicable market rules.

4. Settlement, cancellations and technical issues

A bet is settled according to the result and rules applying to the relevant market or game. Winning returns, losing bets, refunds and void bets are recorded in the account history. Settlement may not be immediate where an official result, verification process or other information is still pending.

If an event is abandoned, postponed, interrupted, rescheduled or changed, the market may be settled, suspended, cancelled or voided according to the rules displayed for that market. Different markets connected to the same event may be treated differently. For example, a market that has already been unambiguously determined may be settled even if the wider event does not continue.

A bet may be declared void where a market is offered in error, an event does not take place, the market cannot be settled fairly, a material change affects the event, or the relevant rules require a refund. Where a bet is void, the stake is normally returned, subject to any applicable combination-bet rules and the specific terms displayed for the market.

Spinline Casino may correct obvious errors in odds, results, balances, bet descriptions or settlement records. An obvious error can include a clearly incorrect price, duplicate market, incorrectly labelled selection, technical display error or other mistake that a reasonable player would recognise. If a bet was accepted or settled because of such an error, it may be corrected, cancelled or re-settled in accordance with the applicable rules.

Technical interruptions, communication failures, device problems, browser errors, payment delays and internet outages may affect access to the website or the processing of a bet. A bet is not necessarily accepted simply because you clicked a confirmation button. The account record and system transaction information are used to determine whether a wager was received and accepted.

If you notice a possible error, duplicate transaction, missing bet or incorrect settlement, stop placing further bets relating to the issue and review your account history. Keep any relevant information, such as the date, market, stake and bet reference, so the matter can be assessed under the applicable support and dispute process. Do not assume that a displayed balance is final if a transaction is still being reviewed.

5. Fair play, responsible gambling and complaints

Betting should be treated as entertainment, not as a way to earn income or recover financial losses. Only use money that you can afford to lose. Set a personal budget before you play and consider setting time or deposit controls where those tools are available. Never borrow money, use essential household funds or chase losses to continue betting.

• Take regular breaks and avoid betting when you are upset, tired, intoxicated or under pressure.
• Keep track of both your time and spending rather than relying on memory.
• Do not increase your stake to recover a loss or treat a win as money that must be wagered again.
• Use available account controls, cooling-off options or self-exclusion tools if betting is becoming difficult to manage.
• Seek independent support if gambling is affecting your finances, relationships, work, health or wellbeing.

Fraud, collusion, manipulation of events, misuse of payment methods, identity abuse, account sharing and attempts to interfere with the website are not permitted. Spinline Casino may suspend or restrict an account, withhold a transaction while it is reviewed, or take other action allowed by applicable terms and law where suspicious or prohibited activity is identified.

If you believe a bet has been accepted or settled incorrectly, raise the issue through the available support or complaints process. Provide a clear description of the concern and relevant account or bet information, without sending unnecessary sensitive information. A review may include transaction records, market rules, system logs, official results and verification checks.

These Betting Rules may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to products, systems, legal requirements or operational practices. The version available when you place a bet will generally apply to that wager, unless a correction is required by law or to address an obvious error. You should review the current rules before using the service.
