Betting Rules & Settlement Policy

This page will tell you exactly how each type of bet on CricBet99 is determined. These rules are made available in advance, are applicable to all users and are the final basis for any settlement question. Before you make your first bet, we highly recommend that you read the rules applicable to your preferred markets — it will save you from almost all disputes later on.

General Principles

The four principles are applicable to all markets on the platform.

  1. Firstly, a matched bet is a final bet. After your bet has been matched, you can no longer cancel or edit it, even if the match situation changes.
  2. Secondly, official results are the basis of settlement. All markets are settled based on the official result published by the appropriate governing body, official scorecard or, in the case of casino games, the result declared by the live dealer. The official record takes precedence over media reports, provisional scores and app glitches.
  3. No betting is allowed in suspended markets, third. If a market is suspended, e.g. if a wicket falls, then any bet placed after the suspension is cancelled and the stake is returned.
  4. Fourth, errors which are obvious are voidable. In the event of a technical error, if the odds are clearly incorrect (e.g. if the market is inverted), then the bets placed at such odds will be cancelled and the stakes will be returned. This protection is bidirectional and is fair to all.

Cricket — Match Odds

Match winner markets are based on the official result of the match. In the event that a match is abandoned or a match has no result, then the match odds market is cancelled and all stakes are returned in full. In the event of a match being won by a Super Over, the Super Over winner is determined as the match winner. In the event of a venue or scheduled date change, and the match is still played within the series window, bets remain in effect.

The session and fancy markets for cricket were held.

Session markets (e.g. runs scored in the first 10 overs) are only settled at the end of the session. If an innings ends before the session is over, or there is a rain break, then the bets on that session are cancelled (except in one important case: if the answer to the session was already mathematically decided before the break (such as a 6 over session market where the 6 overs had been bowled), then the market is settled on the result of the session).

Fancy markets (individual player runs, fall of next wicket, total match boundaries etc.) are determined from the official scorecard. For player runs markets: If a batsman gets hurt and is unable to continue his/her innings, the runs market will remain open and will settle when the batsman returns to the crease or when the innings ends, whichever is earlier. Markets on a batsman that do not become active are cancelled if the batsman is timed out or absent.

The basic rule of thumb in a rain affected or interrupted match is the following: Markets that were naturally finished before the rain are settled; markets that were genuinely undecided are void.

Cricket — Toss

Toss markets settle when the official toss result is made. If the match later has to be abandoned without a ball being bowled, the toss still stands.

Football

Match odds are determined on the score at the end of regulation (ninety minutes plus injury time as added by the referees). Extra time and penalty shootouts are not included in the match odds settlement unless the market specifically includes that (such as a “to lift the trophy” market). If a match is postponed and not played within 48 hours of the original start time, then bets are cancelled.

Tennis

A match winner market will be cancelled and winnings returned if a player drops out of the game at any time after the game has started, due to retirement or disqualification, whatever the score is. Completed set markets are based on actual results; uncompleted sets are null.

Live Casino — Teen Patti, Andar Bahar, Roulette, Dragon Tiger and more.

All bets are final based on the live dealer’s announcement at the table for each round in the live casino. That physical result is final. Any time a video stream freezes, lags or disconnects, the round will continue at the table and the actual table result will prevail (not a stream problem on the player’s end). In the event that a real dealer error or equipment malfunction occurs at the table (misdealt card is acknowledged by the studio), the round is voided by the studio and the stakes are automatically returned.

Casino disputes are to be made within 24 hours and must contain the round ID that will be shown on screen during each game. Our team can retrieve the actual recorded results of that round for review, using a round ID.

Settlement Disputes

In case you think that some bet has been settled wrongly, you can contact support on WhatsApp within 24 hours of the settlement with the following information: the market name, the match or table, the amount of your bet and the approximate time of the bet. Each dispute is heard by our settlement team, who will consider it in the light of the published rules and the official record and provide a clear explanation of the outcome. The outcome of this review is final.

Kabaddi

Kabaddi match markets are settled on the official final score at the end of regulation play, plus any additional raids required to determine the winner in a competition format. When a match is abandoned prior to completion, all match odds are withdrawn and markets which had been determined at the time of abandonment are settled.

Result Amendments

An official result may occasionally be changed after it is declared, such as a scorecard correction made by the governing body soon after a race. In the event of an official amendment being issued within 24 hours of the event, affected markets may be reset to the corrected result, and balances adjusted accordingly. No later amendments will be issued that will affect settled bets after 24 hours of the settlement.

Integrity

Any betting patterns that indicate match-fixing, spot-fixing, inside information or coordinated manipulation will lead to the cancellation of the corresponding bets and a comprehensive account analysis. We work with integrity monitoring at the platform level as a fair market is the only one worth playing on.

These rules are subject to change from time to time, the current version being the one published on this page, where material changes will be dated.
