Adjusting Odds Settings on Your Betting Coupon

When you’re ready to place a bet, you’ll find an icon on your bet coupon — often resembling a gear or cog. Tapping this icon opens up your betting odds settings options, where you can tailor how your bet responds to odds changes:

1. Accept Any Odds: Select this for the quickest live betting experience. Your bet will be placed immediately, regardless of any odds changes.

2. Accept Higher Odds Only: Choose this to ensure your bet only goes through if the odds get better, giving you a chance at higher returns.

3. Do Not Accept Odds Changes: Opt for this if you want your bet to remain unchanged. If the odds shift, your bet won’t be placed.

BetSlip Online vs Offline
