- Bets placed in error by you, if such bets were accepted under the posted rules.
- Interruptions or delays caused by internet or mobile network issues outside the operator’s control.

General Betting Rules
1. Eligibility to place bets
Only registered users who have an active account and meet the eligibility conditions may place bets on the platform. Before placing any bet you must:
- Complete the registration process and agree to the terms.
- Ensure you are at least 18 years of age.
- Confirm that betting on the type of event chosen is allowed in your location.
The operator may require additional identity verification before accepting bets above certain limits or for particular events.
2. Betting account balance and currency
- Bets may only be placed using funds that are already credited and available in your account balance.
- You are not allowed to place bets on credit or use unpaid bonuses beyond the stated terms.
- The account currency and any conversions, if applicable, will be stated in your profile or in the banking section.
It is your responsibility to check your available balance before placing any bet.
3. Bet acceptance and confirmation
A bet is considered placed and valid only when:
- It has been received by the operator’s servers.
- It appears in the betting history section of your account.
- A confirmation message or reference number has been generated.
If technical issues prevent confirmation, the operator may:
- Consider the bet not accepted, or
- Confirm acceptance later, based on transaction logs.
You are responsible for checking that your bets, stakes, and selected events are correct before pressing the confirmation button. Once accepted, bets cannot be changed by you.
4. Minimum and maximum stake limits
For each bet type or event, the platform sets minimum and maximum stake amounts, which may vary depending on:
- Sport or game category.
- Type of market (single, multiple, system, live betting).
- Risk level or exposure for the operator.
The applicable limits are displayed in the bet slip or relevant betting page. The operator may:
- Reject part of a stake that exceeds allowed limits.
- Reduce or increase limits for individual users based on risk management.
5. Odds, event information, and obvious errors
Odds and event details are intended to be accurate, but mistakes can occur. If an obvious error takes place in relation to odds, event name, market, or result entry, the operator may:
- Correct the error and settle bets based on the corrected odds or information, or
- Void affected bets and return the stake to your account.
An obvious error exists when a reasonable user would recognise that the posted odds or event details are significantly incorrect compared to the general market or to the real situation at the time the bet was placed.
6. Settlement of bets and calculation of winnings
Bets are settled based on the official result of the event, as confirmed by the relevant governing body or official source at the time of settlement.
- Winnings are calculated by multiplying the accepted stake by the confirmed odds.
- If a bet is partially cashed out (if this feature is available), settlement follows the specific rules for that feature.
- Any applicable bonus adjustments, such as enhanced odds or accumulator boosts, are applied according to the promotion rules.
After settlement, the result of each bet will appear in your account history. If you believe a bet has been settled incorrectly, you must contact support promptly and not later than 30 days after settlement, providing full details of the bet and event.
7. Void bets, cancellations, and abandoned events
A bet may be declared void and the stake refunded to your account in situations including, but not limited to:
- The event is cancelled and not played at all.
- The event is postponed for an extended period and not rescheduled according to the rules for that competition category.
- The participant or team you bet on withdraws before the start, in markets where starting participation is required.
- Technical issues or errors in markets make fair settlement impossible.
Specific rules on postponed or abandoned events may be provided in sport-specific betting rules. Where no special rule applies, the general principle is that bets stand if the event is completed within a reasonable period and an official result is declared.
8. In-play and live betting
For live betting markets, odds and available bets change in real time.
- A delay may apply between your bet request and acceptance, to protect against time delays in broadcasting.
- Bets placed after a decisive event (such as a goal, penalty, wicket, or red card) may be rejected or may be settled according to corrected odds or voided, depending on the risk assessment.
The operator’s system logs are decisive in determining the time a bet was placed and whether it was accepted before or after any critical event.
9. Multiple, system, and bonus-related bets
Multiple or accumulator bets, system bets, and any special bonus bets are subject to additional rules, including:
- Minimum and maximum number of selections.
- Restrictions on combining certain markets or events in one bet slip.
- Specific conditions for promotion-based bets or enhanced odds offers.
If one selection in a multiple bet is void, settlement will follow the posted rules for that bet type, usually by reducing the multiple to the remaining valid selections.
10. Restrictions on betting and account limits
The operator may impose individual limits on:
- Total stakes for a defined period.
- Maximum wins per bet or per day.
- Access to certain betting markets or event categories.
These measures may be introduced for legal, regulatory, responsible gambling, or risk management reasons. You may also request personal betting limits to manage your activity.
Payment Rules
1. General principles for deposits and withdrawals
All payment operations relating to your betting account are subject to these rules and to any additional conditions of the chosen payment provider.
By initiating a deposit or withdrawal you confirm that:
- You are the lawful holder of the payment method used.
- The funds originate from legal sources.
- You comply with all local legal and tax obligations in Bangladesh or in your country of residence.
The operator reserves the right to apply checks and to refuse or delay payments where required under anti-money laundering or risk policies.
2. Deposit methods, limits, and fees
Available deposit methods for users in Bangladesh may include:
- Local bank transfers.
- Mobile financial services (MFS) such as popular Bangladeshi providers.
- International payment systems and e-wallets, subject to availability.
For each method, the platform will indicate:
- Minimum and maximum deposit amounts per transaction.
- Any applicable fees or currency conversion charges.
- Expected processing times for crediting your account.
Deposits are usually credited once the payment provider confirms the transaction. However, delays may occur due to banking processes, service interruptions, or additional verification requirements.
3. Withdrawal rules and procedures
Before a withdrawal request can be processed:
- Your account must be fully verified as required under KYC and AML standards.
- All deposited funds may need to be wagered at least once, or more frequently where required by specific bonus rules.
- Any open investigations regarding suspicious betting or payment activity must be resolved.
Withdrawal requests are generally processed using the same method used for deposit, where possible. If this is not possible, an alternative method may be selected in coordination with you, subject to regulatory and technical constraints.
The platform will display minimum and maximum withdrawal amounts and indicate expected processing times, which can vary depending on the method used and your verification status.
4. Identity verification and proof of funds
To comply with legal and regulatory requirements, you may be required to provide:
- Proof of identity, such as a passport, national ID, or driving licence.
- Proof of address, such as a utility bill or bank statement.
- Proof of payment method ownership, such as a bank statement or screenshot.
- Proof of funds source, where required by AML regulations.
The operator may suspend deposits, bets, and withdrawals until requested documents have been received and reviewed. Any falsified or altered document may lead to account closure and reporting to competent authorities.
5. Transaction monitoring and restrictions
The operator monitors payment operations to detect unusual or risky behaviour, including:
- Rapid cycles of deposits and withdrawals without betting activity.
- Use of multiple unrelated payment instruments.
- Attempts to bypass geographic or account restrictions.
Where concerns arise, the operator may:
- Request further information or documents.
- Restrict deposit and withdrawal limits.
- Temporarily freeze funds while checks are completed.
6. Currency, conversion, and rounding
Account currency for users in Bangladesh is indicated during registration or in the banking section.
- If a transaction involves currency conversion, exchange rates are based on current market rates or rates of the payment provider.
- Any minor differences due to rounding will be treated fairly and in line with the operator’s internal policies.
7. Chargebacks, refunds, and cancellation of operations
In case of a chargeback or dispute raised through a bank, card issuer, or payment institution:
- The operator may suspend your account and any related accounts until the matter is resolved.
- All bets and bonuses linked to disputed funds may be cancelled.
Refunds of deposits are made at the operator’s discretion and only in justified cases. Where a refund is granted, it may be processed using the same payment method and subject to confirmation of the original transaction.
You cannot cancel a completed deposit or withdrawal request once it has reached a stage where processing has started. If technical issues cause duplication or errors in payments, you must inform customer support immediately and cooperate in reversing mistaken credits.
8. Inactive and dormant accounts
If your account remains inactive for a prolonged period, the operator may classify it as dormant. In line with legal requirements and internal policy, the operator may:
- Attempt to contact you using the latest contact details provided.
- Apply reasonable administrative fees, if allowed by applicable law, which will be stated in advance.
- Take steps required by law regarding unclaimed balances.
You retain the right to request reactivation or withdrawal of remaining funds, subject to verification.
Responsible Gambling
1. Responsible use of betting services
The platform promotes responsible gambling and expects users from Bangladesh to treat betting as a form of entertainment, not as a source of income or a solution for financial difficulties.
By using the services you agree to:
- Monitor your betting behaviour and spending.
- Avoid chasing losses or increasing stakes in a way that creates financial pressure.
- Keep betting separate from other financial responsibilities, such as family and household expenses.
2. Tools for control and self-management
To help you manage your activity, the platform may offer tools that include:
- Deposit limits: You can set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much money you can add to your account.
- Loss limits: Where available, you can define how much you are prepared to lose over a defined period.
- Session limits: You may be able to restrict how long you can be logged in or active.
- Reality checks: Pop-up notifications reminding you of time spent and amounts staked on bets or games.
Changes to limits may not take effect immediately. Decreases usually apply at once, while requests to increase limits may be subject to a cooling-off period.
3. Self-exclusion and time-out options
If you feel that your betting behaviour is becoming problematic, you should consider using self-exclusion or time-out features:
- Time-out: Temporary suspension of access for a short period, such as 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
- Self-exclusion: Longer-term or indefinite exclusion, during which you cannot log in, place bets, claim bonuses, or deposit funds.
During self-exclusion the operator will take reasonable steps to prevent you from opening new accounts. You must not attempt to bypass self-exclusion by changing details or using another person’s account.
4. Recognising signs of gambling problems
You should regularly review your behaviour and ask yourself questions such as:
- Are you betting larger amounts to achieve the same excitement?
- Are you spending more time and money on betting than you originally planned?
- Are you hiding your betting from family or friends?
- Are you borrowing money to cover betting-related expenses or losses?
If the answer to several of these questions is yes, you may be at risk of gambling-related harm.
5. Support and help resources in Bangladesh
If you are concerned about your gambling or that of someone close to you, professional help is available. Depending on your location, you may contact:
- Local healthcare providers or counselling services.
- Mental health professionals who can assist with addiction-related issues.
- International organisations that offer online information and support for problem gambling.
You may also find online self-assessment tests and educational content that explain how betting addiction develops and how to control it. The operator supports efforts to reduce harm and may cooperate with relevant organisations to improve awareness among users in Bangladesh.
6. Protection of minors
Betting services are not intended for anyone under 18 years of age.
To protect minors you should:
- Keep login details and account information confidential.
- Avoid using the platform on shared devices without proper logout.
- Use parental control software where minors have access to your devices.
If the operator discovers or reasonably suspects that an account is used by a minor, the account will be closed, bets may be voided, and any funds will be handled in line with regulatory obligations.
Anti-Money Laundering
1. Legal obligations and policy
The operator is committed to preventing money laundering and the financing of terrorism in line with international standards and applicable legal requirements. Users in Bangladesh must cooperate fully with these obligations.
The platform applies a risk-based approach to identify and reduce the risk that betting accounts are used to disguise the origin of funds or to support unlawful activities.

- Repeated deposits and immediate withdrawals with no significant betting or losses.
- Use of multiple unrelated payment instruments or third-party cards.

- Sudden large changes in betting stakes or event selection without clear reason.
Monitoring is performed using automated systems and manual review. Where needed, the operator may ask you to explain the source and purpose of funds.
4. Suspicious activity and reporting
If activity on an account appears suspicious, the operator may:
- Temporarily block deposits, bets, withdrawals, or bonuses.
- Request detailed explanations and supporting documents.
- Freeze funds until the investigation is completed.
