General betting rules
The bookmaker accepts bets based on a list of betting markets with odds that reflect the perceived probability of each outcome.
- The minimum stake on any single selection is $0.30/€0.20.
- The maximum stake is determined by the bookmaker for each selection separately. Maximum stake limits vary by sport and event. Whenever an accumulator (system) bet comprises several legs with different stake limits, the lowest maximum stake limit shall apply. Maximum odds for a single bet is 200, for an accumulator bet is 500.
- The bookmaker reserves the right to limit the maximum stake or odds on certain selections as well as to limit or raise the maximum stake or odds for certain customers without any notification or giving reasons.
- The bookmaker reserves the right to declare correctly predicted multiple bets (bets on the same outcome or combination of outcomes though with different odds) void. Such bets shall be settled at odds of 1.00 if the total amount of these stakes exceeds the maximum stake limits set by the bookmaker.
- A bet is considered to be accepted after its registration on the server and its online confirmation. Registered bets may not be altered or revoked.
- Bets are only accepted in amounts not exceeding the current balance on the customer’s account. Once a bet has been registered, the stake is debited from the account. After bets have been settled, the return is credited to the customer’s account.
- Bets are accepted before the start of the event; the relevant date, starting time, and commentary shown in the Sports section are indicative. Any bet placed after the event has started for any reason will be deemed void, except for in-play (live) bets, which are bets made while an event is taking place. Such bets shall be deemed valid until the end of the match.
- SPORTS and LIVE bets may not be changed or deleted except for the certain cases described in paragraphs 10-14.
- If a single bet is canceled, the relevant stake is refunded. In accumulators and system bets, when any leg or legs are canceled, such legs shall be excluded from the bet settlement.
- If bets are settled incorrectly (e.g. the results were entered by mistake), such bets shall be recalculated. However, bets placed in the period between the erroneous settlement and recalculation shall be deemed valid. In the event the bettor’s account proves to be negative after such recalculation, no bets may be placed until the bettor has made a sufficient deposit.
- No sports event shall be deemed rescheduled or canceled unless the same is announced in official documents issued by the event organizer, on official websites of sports federations, on websites of sports clubs, or by other sources of sports information. Events indicated in the Sports section shall be adjusted accordingly.
- A bet shall be canceled should the customer deliberately mislead the staff (bookmaker employees) by submitting false data and requests pertaining to betting, payouts, results of the event, or any other details or requests of such nature. This rule shall also apply to minors (individuals under 18 years of age) and their parents.
- A bet shall be canceled if it has been placed on a known outcome (an event has finished, but the results have not been updated).
- The “Simultaneous finish” rule is the outcome in which there is more than one winner of the event, tournament, championship etc. Should two winners be announced then stake amount is divided into 2 while calculating bets. Should three or more winners be announced then bets will be settled with odds equal to “1”. This rule does not apply to the markets “To be higher”.
- SP (Starting Price) – starting odds. This term refers to the odds at the start of a race, which are calculated by averaging the odds offered by the organizers of a competition before the race
begins. If a competitor is withdrawn before the start of an event or does not take part in a race (in accordance with the relevant official tournament protocol) and a new SP market isn’t formed, all bets placed on this competitor will be void (settled at odds of 1.00).
- Bets on regional championships (football, futsal, hockey, etc.) are settled within 10 days from the publication of the results on official websites thereof. You can find the list of official websites in the section “Main Sources of Information”. If one of the teams does not show up, all bets shall be settled at odds of 1 (refund).

BET SLIP SALE
The Company offers a “Bet slip sale” feature. If customer does not want to wait until their bet has been settled, they can sell the bet slip back to the company in part or in full and get money in their account immediately. The service is available in “My Account – Bet History” or in the “My Bets” tab on the bet slip.
The customer can choose between a full or a partial sale in the bet slip sale dialog window. In this window, the customer can choose the part of their stake they want returned to their gaming account. The remaining part of the stake will stay on their bet slip and will be taken into account when the bet is settled. The amounts are confirmed by pressing the “Sell” button.
The minimum and maximum amounts the customer can get back into their account are determined on a case-by- case basis, dependent on the specific bet placed. In some cases the customer can only sell the bet slip in full. In other cases, depending on the bet, the customer might be able to sell the
bet slip in parts, and in several transactions, within the stake amount.
The more time a customer spends on the bet slip sale dialog window once it has been opened, the greater the chance that the amount offered to sell the bet slip for will change. If the situation around the event changes, the price offered for the sale of the bet slip could change too.
Bet slip sale is possible for single, accumulator bets and system bets. A bet slip sale is impossible if:
- The bet has been settled;
- One or more outcomes on the bet slip have been blocked;
- The bet slip contains outcomes which cannot be sold;
- The bet slip has already been sold;
- The price offered to the customer for the bet slip has changed. In this case the customer should choose new amounts in the bet slip sale dialog window.
- A bet slip sale can also be blocked at the discretion of the Betting Company.
The Company is not liable in cases where the service is not available due to technical failure. The Company reserves the right to suspend the service at any time in regard to any betting event without stating a reason. The bet slip sale transaction can be canceled if technical problems have been detected at any stage of the sale. In all such cases, bets are settled as normal based on the event outcome.
The Company does not guarantee that any bet placed on the website can be sold. The customer can only find out whether the bet can be sold after the bet has been accepted. The price of selling the bet slip offered by the Company is not up for negotiation. The customer has the right to accept the terms of sale or refuse to sell the bet slip at the specified price.
An “Auto sell” function is also available. The Customer indicates the amount that he would like to sell the bet slip for. The bet slip sale price will be continuously adjusted in accordance with the odds, and the bet slip will be sold automatically when the price reaches the desired amount.
Before the bet is sold automatically, a customer can themself sell the bet slip in whole or in part. In this case the “Auto sell” function will be deactivated.
“Auto sell” terms fully correspond with “Bet slip sale” rules and its restrictions.
Powerbet
- Bettors are offered the “Powerbet” feature on a live or pre-match single bet. The feature can be used while Bet Slip Sale is available.
- The “Powerbet” feature allows you to boost a bet you have already placed on a particular market and, if things turn out in your favor, you could end up winning even more, without having to increase your initial stake.
- “Powerbet” can be used on a bet you have already placed. For example, if you have placed a bet on a Total Over market, you can use a Powerbet to boost the value of Total Over. This gives you the chance to increase your potential winnings from the bet slip in question before your initial bet is settled.
Types of bets
The bookmaker offers the following types of bets:
Single bet
A single bet is a bet on a particular outcome. To calculate the return on a single bet, the stake is multiplied by the odds of your selection.
Accumulator bet
An accumulator bet is a bet consisting of several selections on unrelated events. To calculate the return on an accumulator, the stake is multiplied by the corresponding odds of all selections within the accumulator. Should at least one leg fail, the whole bet is lost.
System bet
A system bet is a bet consisting of several accumulators of the same size on a pre-determined number of outcomes.
The maximum number of accumulators within a system is 184756. The maximum number of outcomes within a system is 20.
To calculate the payout, the returns on all accumulators included in the system are added up.

Chain
A chain consists of several single bets on unrelated outcomes. The stake in each single bet is equal to the stake placed on the very first selection which rolls over with each bet won. The bettor determines the order of bets being settled within a chain and places a bet on the first selection in the chain. For bet settlement purposes, a concept of a “chain account” is used. As each single bet in the chain is settled, the balance on the “chain account” is adjusted accordingly. Initially, the balance equates to the first stake.
As the chain progresses, should the balance on the chain account be less than the pre-determined stake, this remaining balance will be placed on the next selection.
The chain is settled based on the order of bets on the bet slip rather than chronologically. The balance remaining on the “chain account” after all bets have been settled shall be paid. If the balance on the “chain account” drops to zero at any point, the chain is terminated and the bet is deemed lost.

Example
Your account balance is €260. You have made the following bets:
€100 at odds of 1.5 — potential returns are €150.
€150 at odds of 2 — potential returns are €300. Now your available balance is €10.
888starz offers you an Advancebet of €100. Now you are able to place bets to a total stake value of
€110.
You then place a bet of €30 (€10 off your available balance and €20 of the Advancebet amount) at odds of 1.5.
Potential returns are €45.
You also place a bet of €50 (from your Advancebet balance) at odds of 2. Potential returns are €100. Let’s consider the potential outcomes
- Bets made using Advancebets have won. Expected payouts are €45 and €100. Bets made with your own funds have lost. Bets made with Advancebets will therefore be deemed void. Your own €10 that formed part of your Advancebet stake will be refunded to your account.
- Bets made with Advancebets have lost. Bets made with your own funds have won. The payout is (150+300) = €450. €50 and €20 were used as Advancebets (plus €10 of your own funds). The amount of the Advancebets will be deducted from the payout (150+300)-50- 20 = €380. Therefore, €380 will be credited to your account.
- Bets made using Advancebets have lost. Bets made with your own funds have lost. In this case, bets made as Advancebets will be nullified. Your own €10 that formed part of your Advancebet stake will be lost.

Multibet
A Multibet is a set of accumulators and single bets. A Multibet may include a Lobby bet or it may not. A Multibet with a Lobby can be described as an accumulator which includes two bets: a Lobby bet and a system bet consisting of several selections.
A Lobby is an outcome upon which the win of a Multibet depends. A Lobby may be placed as a single bet or as an accumulator.
To create a Multibet, there must be at least three selections on a bet slip (apart from any Lobby). Should the Lobby lose, the whole bet loses. Should the system bet lose, the whole bet loses.
Should the Lobby and one or more legs of the system bet win, the odds of the Lobby shall be multiplied by the odds of the system (depending on how many legs of the system won) and the stake on one leg within the system. If a Lobby is not included in a Multibet, the bet slip shall be treated as a system bet. A Multibet without a Lobby and comprising only of single bets shall be treated as a system bet.
Example. Let’s consider settlement of the following Multibet (a Lobby, two single bets and one accumulator)
Lobby – odds 1.8 Block 1 – odds 1.39
Block 2 – odds 1.78
Block 3 – odds 2.44 Stake – €300
The stake on one leg in the system bet amounts to 300/3 = €100
1st Option
The Lobby loses. The bet slip loses.
2nd Option
The system of 2 single bets and the accumulator loses. The bet slip loses.
3rd Option
The Lobby wins.
One leg of the system consisting of 2 single bets wins: Block 1 + Block 3. The stake on one leg in the system amounts to €100. (1.39 х 2.44) х 1.8 = 6.1 х €100 = €610.
4th Option
The Lobby wins.
All legs in the system win. The stake on one leg in the system amounts to €100. (1.39 х 2.44 + 1.39 х 1.78 + 1.78 х 2.44) х 1.8 = 18.36 х €100 = €1,836.
Conditional bet
A conditional bet is a combination of bets (single bets and accumulators) on unrelated outcomes. The bettor may determine at their own discretion the order of the outcomes involved in a conditional bet. All outcomes shall be settled in the order specified on the bet slip. The bettor may determine at their own discretion the stake on each outcome. The stake on each subsequent outcome may not exceed the return from the preceding outcomes. The bettor may also specify only the initial stake. In this event, the stake on each subsequent outcome in the conditional bet will equal the maximum (100%) return from the preceding selection. Should the first selection lose, the conditional bet loses. The settlement of a conditional bet shall be terminated if one of the selections loses and there are no funds left for subsequent stakes.
Example. The conditional bet consists of three blocks.
Block 1 – odds 1.15, stake €100 (the stake paid by the Customer when the bet is accepted).
Block 2 – a double at odds of 1.39 and 1.13 respectively. The stake amount is set as the maximum. Block 3 – odds 1.13, stake €100
1st option
Block 1 loses. The whole bet loses as there is no stake available for the subsequent blocks.
2nd option
Block 1 wins. The return amounts to €115.
Block 2 (a double), the stake is set as the maximum (€115). This wins and so the return is (1.39 x 1.13) x 115 = 1.57 x 115 = €180.63.
The stake for Block 3 is deducted from the return. The stake for Block 3 amounts to €100. 180.63 – 100 = €80.63. The sum of €80.63 is credited to the conditional bet account.
Block 3 loses.
The balance on the conditional bet account amounts to €80.63. The return is €80.63.
3rd option
Block 1 wins. The return amounts to €115.
Block 2 (a double), the stake is set as the maximum (€115). The return is (1.39 х 1.13) х 115 = 1.57 х
115 = €180.63.
The stake for Block 3 is deducted from the return. The stake for Block 3 is €100. 180.63 – 100 =
€80.63. The sum of
€80.63 is credited to the conditional bet account. Block 3 wins – 100 х 1.13 = €113
The return amounts to 80.63 + 113 = €193.63
4th option
Block 1 wins. The return amounts to €115.
Block 2 (a double) loses. The stake of Block 2 is set as the maximum, therefore the sum of €115 is lost.
Block 3 wins. The stake is €100. As Block 2 lost, there is no stake. The bet slip loses.
Lucky
A Lucky bet is a combination of single bets and all associated available accumulators for a specific number of selections. The minimum number of selections is 2, the maximum number of selections is 8.
To get a payout, at least one selection needs to be predicted correctly.
Example. The bet slip includes 4 selections. Selection 1 – odds 2
Selection 2 – odds 3.5
Selection 3 – odds 4
Selection 4 – odds 1.5 The stake is €150
The Lucky bet will include the following bets:
4 single bets
6 permed doubles
4 permed trebles
1 fourfold accumulator
You have 15 bets in total. The stake shall be calculated as follows: €150/15 bets = €10 per bet.

Should all single bets win, all other options on the bet slip shall be deemed won. All returns will add up to €1,677.50.
Should only one selection win, for example Selection 4, the return will be 1.5 x €10 = €15. All the remaining 14 options will lose.
