Betting Rules

General betting conditions

These rules apply to bets placed through Highway Casino, together with the website terms and conditions, privacy policy, responsible gambling information and any specific rules displayed for a particular game, event, market or offer. If a specific betting rule conflicts with a general rule, the specific rule for that product or market will generally apply.

You are responsible for reading the available information before placing a bet. This includes the selection, market description, odds, stake, potential return, applicable restrictions and any settlement conditions. Rules may differ between products, and not every market or betting option will be available at all times.

• You must be legally permitted to gamble in your location and must meet the applicable minimum age requirement. In Australia, gambling services are generally restricted to people aged 18 years or over.
• You must use your own account and provide information that is accurate, complete and current.
• You must not place bets for another person, allow another person to use your account or operate more than one account where this is not permitted.
• You must keep your login details, payment information and account access secure.
• You must not use the service for unlawful activity, fraud, money laundering, collusion or any other prohibited purpose.
• You must comply with any location, identity, payment and verification requirements that apply to your account.

Highway Casino may restrict access, suspend an account, refuse a transaction or withhold a bet while information is checked where there is a security, integrity, legal or responsible gambling concern. Any action will be handled in line with the applicable website terms and relevant requirements.

Placing and accepting bets

A bet is not confirmed simply because you have selected an option or entered a stake. A bet becomes valid only when it has been accepted and a confirmation, bet reference or equivalent record is displayed in your account. You should check your betting history after each transaction and contact the relevant support channel through the website if a bet does not appear as expected.

Before confirming a bet

Before submitting a bet, check the event or game, selection, market type, odds, stake, currency, possible return and any displayed terms. You are responsible for confirming that the details are correct. Once accepted, a bet generally cannot be changed or cancelled at your request unless the specific rules expressly allow it.

Displayed odds, prices and information may change before a bet is accepted. This can occur because of changes to the market, event information, available liquidity, technical processing or other circumstances. The odds and terms that apply are those shown at the time the bet is accepted, subject to the applicable rules.

Bet acceptance and limits

Highway Casino may set, change or remove minimum and maximum stakes, market availability, account limits or other betting conditions. A bet may be accepted in full, accepted for a different amount, rejected or remain pending. Any applicable limit or restriction should be displayed where relevant.

A technical message, delayed screen or interrupted connection does not by itself confirm that a bet was accepted. Do not repeatedly submit the same bet while checking the status, as more than one bet may be recorded if the original request was processed. Your account history is the primary record of accepted bets.

Errors and irregular activity

If a clear error affects a price, market description, result, settlement or account balance, the relevant transaction may be reviewed and corrected in accordance with the applicable terms. This may include voiding a bet, correcting an incorrect settlement or restoring an amount that was credited in error. Where possible, affected customers will be given information about the correction.

Bets may also be reviewed where there is suspected fraud, manipulation, collusion, abuse of a technical fault, a breach of account terms or activity that may affect the integrity of a market. A review does not mean that any wrongdoing has been established.

Settlement, results and cancellations

Bets are settled using the result and settlement method stated in the relevant rules. Depending on the product, the result may be based on an official result, an approved data source, a game outcome or another clearly identified method. The result used for settlement may not be changed merely because a later update, appeal, correction or unofficial report becomes available, unless the specific rules provide for a correction.

You should read the market description carefully because words such as winner, place, total, handicap, first scorer, final result, over, under or similar terms can have a specific meaning. The selection shown on the bet confirmation and the rules for that market determine how the bet is settled.

Changes, postponements and abandoned events

Events can be delayed, postponed, abandoned, rescheduled or changed. The treatment of affected bets depends on the relevant market rules and the circumstances of the event. Some bets may remain active, some may be settled using the result already determined, and others may be cancelled or voided. No general outcome should be assumed without checking the specific rules.

Void bets and refunds

Where a bet is declared void under the applicable rules, the stake will normally be treated according to those rules. This may involve returning the stake, removing the affected selection from a multiple bet or applying another stated settlement method. A void outcome does not necessarily mean that every selection in a multiple bet is void.

If a bet is settled incorrectly, you should review the market rules and betting history first. Where a genuine settlement error is identified, the account may be adjusted to reflect the correct outcome. Account balances should not be treated as final until the relevant transaction has been properly settled.

Multiple and combined bets

For a multiple or combined bet, all included selections must be considered under the rules for that bet type. The outcome can be affected by a selection being void, cancelled, unavailable or settled under a different result. The displayed calculation and the applicable market rules determine the final settlement.

Account security and responsible betting

Betting should be treated as entertainment, not as a way to earn income or recover losses. Only use money that you can afford to lose, set a personal budget before playing and avoid increasing your stake because of frustration, excitement or previous losses. A result is not made more likely because you have lost, and a previous win does not guarantee another win.

• Set deposit, spending, time or session limits where those tools are available to you.
• Take regular breaks and avoid betting when tired, upset, under the influence of alcohol or otherwise unable to make clear decisions.
• Do not borrow money, use essential household funds or sell belongings to continue betting.
• Consider taking a break or using account exclusion tools if betting is no longer enjoyable or is becoming difficult to control.
• Seek independent financial or support assistance if gambling is affecting your wellbeing, relationships, work or finances.
• Keep your account and payment details private and report suspicious activity through the website as soon as possible.

Identity and account checks may be required before an account can be used fully or before certain transactions are processed. You must provide genuine documents and information when requested. Using false details, another person’s payment method or an account belonging to someone else may lead to restrictions, cancellation of transactions or further review.

These Betting Rules are intended to provide a clear general guide, but they cannot cover every possible product or situation. The specific rules displayed for the relevant bet, together with the website terms and applicable law, should always be read before betting. By placing a bet, you confirm that you have had an opportunity to review the applicable information and accept the conditions that apply.
