7. In the event that a given market continues to be displayed on the PuntZone Platform after the commencement of said event, PuntZone reserves the right to void any bets placed on said event it has commenced.

PuntZone Promotions & Promotional Products

Eligibility & Fair Use Policy
1. PuntZone Management reserves the right to, at any time and at its sole and absolute discretion, determine and/or revoke a Customer's eligibility to receive any PuntZone Promotion or Promotional Product for any reason whatsoever. This includes (without limitation) where a Customer is deemed by PuntZone (at its sole and absolute discretion):
  1. To be abusing a PuntZone Promotion or Promotional Product;
  2. To be a non-recreational punter; or
  3. To otherwise be in breach of any of the terms and conditions relating to Promotions and/or Promotional Products contained in the PuntZone Wagering Rules.
2. Owing to the increased prevalence of syndicates taking unfair advantage of wagering promotions, PuntZone Customers will not be eligible to receive the benefit of Promotions or Promotional Products until such time as PuntZone Management has deemed - at its sole and absolute discretion - that the PuntZone Customer's wagering activity is both genuinely recreational and legitimate (in the sense that the nominal PuntZone Account Holder is in fact solely responsible for the opening, funding, use and control of their PuntZone Customer Account).
3. Without limitation, the following shall constitute an abuse of a PuntZone Promotion or Promotional Products by a Customer:
  1. Allowing a third party direct or indirect access to the Member's PuntZone Customer Account.
  2. Where the Customer's total bets on promotional events or markets (either in terms of turnover or number of bets placed) equals or exceeds the Customer's total bets on non-promotional events or markets (excluding markets provided by third party providers such as playerbets). For the purposes of calculating turnover or the number of bets on non-promotional events and markets, only bets placed at a dividend of $1.90 or higher will be taken into consideration.
  3. Where, in the reasonable opinion of PuntZone, a Customer is creating multiple Customer Accounts, or otherwise colluding with multiple account holders, in order to 'stockpile' promotions or acquire the benefit of more than their prescribed allotment of promotional products.
  4. If a Customer places a wager on two or more of the competitors in a sporting event (either in 'real' cash, Bonus Bets, or a combination of both).
4. Turnover Requirements
  1. If you receive a bonus bet, the deposit must be turned over at odds of $1.90 or greater before you can withdraw. Bonus winnings do not need to be turned over.
  2. Only first bet on a given race or event shall count towards turnover.
  3. Bonus Bets do not count towards turnover
  4. If we believe you are match betting/promotional abuse with bonus bets/promotions, we reserve the right to close your account or void all pending bonus bets or winnings at the discretion of the bookmaker. This includes but not limited to placing bets on all likely outcomes of an event, equal or zero margin bets, hedge betting, arbitrage betting. We reservice the right to restrict the use of Bonus Bets to racing products only.
5. 1. Bonus Bets can be placed in any amount on Racing Products or Fixed odds Sports Events (singles only, not multis or exotics) Bonus Bets expires 30 days after their application unless otherwise stated. Bonus Bets are provided at our discretion and can be held back or withdrawn at any time. One Bonus per IP address, per person, account, household, internet connection, computer, mobile device.
6. Only one PuntZone Customer per household is eligible for Promotional Products.
7. If PuntZone Management suspects that PuntZone Account Holder is part of a syndicate, or otherwise using their PuntZone Customer Account primarily to generate bonuses or abuse promotional products, PuntZone Management may, prior to allowing any funds to be withdrawn by that account holder, request evidence to support the fact the account was solely used and funded by the PuntZone Account Holder, and that there was no interaction with a third party at any time in connection with the opening or funding of the account or the placement of any relevant transactions.
8. PuntZone reserves the rights to cancel any or suspend any promotional offers at any time, including any previously accrued bonuses or other benefit and make promotional offers unavailable to any customer at any time without providing any reasons or notice.
9. To the extent that circumstances arise for which no provision is made in these the rules regarding PuntZone Promotions & Promotional Products, PuntZone reserves the right to make a ruling to resolve said circumstances in its sole and absolute discretion, with said ruling to be final and binding.

Protest Payout (& Racing Protests Generally)

PuntZone Protest Payout will be applied when a horse on which the Customer has placed a bet is first past-the-post but is ultimately relegated due to an upheld protest or enquiry by the Racing Stewards.
In the event of an upheld protest on eligible events, PuntZone will pay out in respect of both the first past-the-post and the runner ultimately declared as the official winner.
PuntZone Protest Payout applies to every Australian Thoroughbred and Harness race. PuntZone does not offer Protest Payout on any international race in any racing code.
For the avoidance of doubt, Protest Payout shall only apply in respect of:
1. Bets on horses that are first past-the-post but later relegated as a result of a protest or other Stewards' inquiry;
2. Fixed Odds and Tote (Win) bets (and the 'win' portion of Fixed Odds (Each-Way) bets) that are placed by the Customer after the declaration of the final field;
3. The Customer's first accepted, qualfiying bet on a given runner; and
4. Official protests and Stewards' inquiries.
Protest Payout shall not apply in respect of:
1. Bets on horses that originally finished second or third past-the-post but are relegated out of the placings as a result of a 'minor protest';
2. Bets placed on 'All-In' or futures markets;
3. Special markets, products or bet types including, without limitation, multi-leg bets, exotic bets, bonus bets, head-to-head betting, 'Odds v Evens' markets, 'Favourite v Field' markets, or 'Box/Jockey Challenge markets; or
4. Disqualifications including, without limitation, where a horse is disqualified as a result of weighing in 'light' after the completion of the race.
In the event that an official protest is upheld, any wagers in a 'Run Second to the Favourite' market (and wagers into similar markets/promotions connected to the relevant event) will be void.
Subject to the PuntZone betting rules, the amount of the Protest Payout will be equal to the full return the Customer would have received had the horse been declared the official winner except that the maximum amount paid out to a Customer on account of Protest Payout shall be limited to:
1. Two thousand dollars ($2,000) per Customer per race; and
2. Five thousand dollars ($5,000) per Customer per day.
This product is available for recreational customers only and PuntZone reserves the right to, at its sole and absolute discretion, exclude or limit the eligibility of certain Customers from receiving the benefit of the PuntZone Protest Payout.
If a Customer who is not eligible for Protest Payout is credited winnings based on interim results and the runner on which they placed their bet is subsequently demoted as a result of an upheld protest, PuntZone reserves the right to adjust said Customer's Account Balance upon the re-settlement of the relevant event to reflect the official results. In the event that the re-settlement of the event results in a Customer's available balance being negative (owing to withdrawals or other transactions in the intervening period), the amount required to return the Customer's Account Balance to zero is immediately due and payable.

PuntZone 'Boost'

With PuntZone's 'Boost', Customers can spend 'Boost' Tokens to get an increased dividend on their bet.
PuntZone's Wagering Rules apply in respect of 'Boosted' bets, including (without limitation):
1. Trading & event payout limits and other restrictions;
2. Rules regarding the application of deductions as a result of scratchings in racing events; and
3. The 'Dead Heat Rule (Racing)'.
The number or type of PuntZone 'Boost' Tokens which may be made available to a Customer on any given day may vary and will be issued at the absolute discretion of PuntZone Management. PuntZone Management will not enter into any communications regarding the issuance of, or failure to issue, PuntZone 'Boost' Tokens.
PuntZone 'Boost' Tokens will only be able to be used on 'Fixed Odds (Win)' products (in both Sport and Racing), and only where the 'Boost Token' button appears on a given betting leg within the Betslip.
The dividend available to you when you apply your PuntZone 'Boost' Token will depend upon a range of factors and will be calculated and applied at the absolute discretion of PuntZone Management.
PuntZone 'Boost' tokens cannot be used in conjunction with any other promotions offered by PuntZone from time to time including Bonus Bets or any bets placed which would qualify members to receive a Bonus Bet. For example, a 'Boosted' bet would not be eligible to be refunded as part of any 'Money-Back' promotion.
In the event that a 'Cash-Out' offer is advanced to a Customer in respect of a bet, the 'Cash-Out' settlement will be based on the original dividend rather than the 'Boosted' dividend.
Fair Use Policy
1. PuntZone reserves the right to, at any time and at its sole and absolute discretion:
  1. Change, suspend or terminate the availability of PuntZone 'Boost' Tokens on any sport or market; and
  2. Exclude any Customer from receiving PuntZone 'Boost' Tokens if PuntZone Management determines that the Customer is abusing or has abused the promotion.
2. In addition to, and without limiting, the provisions detailed above in 'Section 2A - Eligibility & Fair Use Policy', the following actions shall also constitute abuse of the PuntZone 'Boost' promotion:
  1. Allowing a third party direct or indirect access to the Customer's PuntZone Customer Account; and
  2. Where the Customer's 'Boosted' wagers exceed the value (both in terms of turnover, and number of bets placed) of non-promotional wagers. (For the purposes of calculating non-promotional turnover in the context of this rule, only bets placed at a dividend of $1.80 or higher will be taken into consideration.)
  3. Where, in the reasonable opinion of PuntZone, a Customer is creating multiple PuntZone Customer Accounts, or otherwise colluding with other Customers, in order to accrue more than their allottment of 'Boost' Tokens.

PuntZone 'Money Back' Promotions

PuntZone offer 'Money Back' promotions on selected racing and sporting events as displayed from time-to-time on our Promotions page for logged in Customers.
Where a 'Money Back' Promotion is being run on a given Thoroughbred Racing event, Customers will receive a Bonus Bet matching the stake of their FIRST (Win) bet on the event (up to a maximum of $50.00) if their selection runs 2^nd or 3^rd.
In addition to, and without limiting, the provisions detailed above in 'Section 2A - Eligibility & Fair Use Policy', the following rules apply to specifically PuntZone's 'Money Back' Promotions:
1. The determination as to a Customer's eligibility for a refund, and the amount of that refund, will be based on that Customer's FIRST (Win) bet placed on the relevant race.
2. Notwithstanding the amount of the Customer's qualifying bet, the amount of any 'Money Back' Bonus Bet will be limited to $50.00.
3. 'Money Back' Bonuses will only be awarded in respect of single bets (and not multi-leg bets).

Abandonments, Relocations & Changes in Race Conditions

If, after the placement of a wager, a race meeting is abandoned or postponed to another date, PuntZone may, at its sole and absolute discretion and without regard to the actions or announcements of any TAB, racing authority or other wagering operator, void any standing single and exotic wagers on the abandoned or postponed meeting.
If a race meeting is:
1. Transferred to a venue other than the listed venue at the time of bet placement;
2. Scheduled to be run on a track surface other than the listed track surface at the time of bet placement; or
3. Scheduled to be run over a distance other than the listed distance at the time of bet placement,
any outstanding wagers on the meeting will stand, and the original wagering rules and limits will apply, as if that meeting were never relocated, or the race conditions were never changed, provided that:
1. The meeting still takes place on the same day; and
2. Any runners scratched at the time of bet placement remain scratched.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Customer contacts PuntZone prior to the commencement of the relevant race PuntZone may (on a case-by-case basis and at its discretion) agree to void the Customer's wager.
If there is a relocation or change of race conditions of the kind mentioned in the preceding Clause, and any scratched runners are reinstated, all standing single and exotic wagers on the meeting will, without regard to the actions or announcements of any TAB, racing authority or other wagering operator, be cancelled/voided.
Regardless of whether a 'Futures' event (i.e. an event designated for 'All-In' betting) has been abandoned, postponed or transferred from the original date, all bets placed prior to the barrier draw shall stand until the completion of the event. All bets placed after the final field is announced will be subject to refund and members must re-submit new wagers on the event.

Scratchings

A 'scratching' refers to the withdrawal of a runner from a race in which it is nominated.
If a runner is scratched following final acceptances and/or the declaration of the final field of a given race:
1. All wagers that were placed on the scratched runner prior to the declaration of the final field will be deemed to have been taken on an 'All-In' basis and therefore be deemed losing bets;
2. All wagers that were placed on the scratched runner after the declaration of the final field will be voided;
3. All 'Fixed Odds', 'Top Fluctuation' and other fixed price wagers placed after the declaration of the final field on any runners remaining in the field will be subject to a Deduction (with said Deduction to be calculated in accordance with the PuntZone Schedule of Deductions (see below)).
'Favourite v Field' Markets
1. In the event that the 'Favourite' listed in the 'Favourite v Field' market is subsequently scratched, all wagers placed in that market (while that runner was the nominated 'Favourite') will be voided and the amount of those bets refunded to the Customer.
2. In the event that any runner other than the listed/nominated 'Favourite' is scratched after bet placement:
  1. Any wagers placed on the nominated 'Favourite' will be subject to a standard Deduction calculated in accordance with the PuntZone Schedule of Deductions; and
  2. Any wagers placed on the 'Field' will be subject to an inverse Deduction (i.e. the dividend will increase by the amount of the Deduction) to compensate the Customer for the reduced probability of the 'Field' bet being successful.
3. PuntZone may, at its discretion, agree to the cancellation or voiding of a 'Favourite v Field' wager if the Customer contacts PuntZone prior to the commencement of the relevant event.

'Dead Heat' Rule (Racing)

In the event of a 'Dead Heat' (i.e. where two or more runners in an event are declared to have finished tied), unless a 'Dead Heat' was an available betting option:
1. Any 'Fixed Odds', 'Top Fluctuation','Official Starting Price' or other fixed price wagers on the tied runners will be paid out at the face value of the relevant wagering ticket divided by the number of runners involved in the Dead Heat; and
2. Any wagers on 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' products will be paid out in accordance with the dividends declared by the TABs (which will have been adjusted to account for the 'Dead Heat').
For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of the 'Dead Heat Rule (Racing)':
1. Wagers on 'Top Fluctuation' and 'Official Starting Price' products are deemed to be 'Fixed Odds' wagers; and
2. Any 'Fixed Odds' component of a 'Tote-Derivative' Wagering Product such as, for example, the Official Starting Price component of a 'Best Tote + SP' wager, shall be calculated as if it were a 'Fixed Odds' wager.

'Fixed Odds' Betting

Where there are eight (8) or more runners in a given race, 'Fixed Odds (Place)' wagers (including where the place component of any fixed price 'Each-Way' bet is to be paid at the 'Fixed Odds (Place)' dividend) will be paid in respect of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd placegetters.
Where there are seven (7), six (6) or five (5) runners in a given race, 'Fixed Odds (Place)' wagers (including where the place component of any fixed price 'Each-Way' bet is to be paid at the 'Fixed Odds (Place)' dividend) will be paid only in respect of the 1st and 2nd placegetters.
Where there are less than five (5) runners in a given race (including where the field is reduced as a result of late scratchings), all 'Fixed Odds (Place)' wagers (including the place component of any fixed price 'Each-Way' if said component is to be paid at the 'Fixed Odds (Place)' dividend) will be voided.

'Tote' & 'Tote-Derivative' Betting

In the event that trading in one or more of the totalisator pools is suspended or interrupted, PuntZone reserves the right to (at its discretion) either:
1. Postpone the resulting of any wager contingent on any of said totalisator pools until such time as the suspension or interruption is resolved; or
2. Exclude or disregard the totalisator pool or pools that is/are suspended or interrupted, and result any contingent wagers solely on the basis of the totalisator pool or pools that have not experienced any interruption of trading. (For example, if the New South Wales Tote is experiencing an outage, PuntZone may elect to:
  1. Pay out successful 'Best Tote' wagers as the best of only the Victorian and Queensland totes; and/or
  2. Pay out successful 'Middle Tote' wagers as the average of the Victorian and Queensland totes.
Payout Limits / Adjustments on 'Tote' & 'Tote-Derivative' Betting
1. For the avoidance of doubt, any reference to a 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager in these wagering rules includes win, place and/or exotics wagers.
2. PuntZone may, at its discretion, place a limit on the payout in respect of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager where:
  1. Any of the Australian TABs has declared an irregular dividend relative to the Official Starting Price, the PuntZone 'Fixed Odds' dividend at the time of the jump, or any of the dividends declared by the other Australian TABs; or
  2. Where there is a reasonable suspicion of the totalisator pools having been manipulated.
3. In the event that one of the Australian TAB's returns an elevated dividend owing to their foregoing of their normal take out (whether for promotional reasons or otherwise), PuntZone reserves the right to exclude or ignore that elevated dividend for the purposes of calculating the payout of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager.
4. If the total amount of any totalisator pool for any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' product is less than five hundred dollars ($500.00), PuntZone may, at it sole and absolute discretion, disregard such totalisator pool in the calculation of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' dividend.
5. PuntZone may, at its discretion, place a limit on the payout in respect of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager such that the dividend at which a Customer's wager is paid will not be more than 50% greater than (i.e. 1.5 times) the amount of the lowest of the dividends declared by the three Australian TABs and the final PuntZone 'Fixed Odds' price.
6. In the event that any tote dividend is more than 50% higher than any of the Official Starting Price, the final PuntZone 'Fixed Odds' price, or any of the dividends declared by the other Australian TABs, PuntZone may exclude or disregard the irregular dividend for the purposes of calculating the payout of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager.
7. PuntZone reserves the right to cancel any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager of a Customer where that Customer or their associates have manipulated any of the totalisator pools.
8. If, pursuant to this Clause, any tote dividend/s has/have been excluded or disregarded for the purposes of calculating the payout of any 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wager the following rules shall apply:
  1. Successful 'Best Tote' wagers will be paid out on the basis of those tote dividends that have not been excluded or disregarded; and
  2. Successful 'Middle Tote' wagers will be paid out as the average of those tote dividends that have not been excluded or disregarded.
9. If it is reasonably believed that any of the totalisator pools have been manipulated, all 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' wagers will be paid out as 'Middle Tote' except where all three totalisator pools have been manipulated in which event PuntZone will be pay the closing fixed price dividend.
'Tote-Derivative (Place)' Betting
1. 'Tote-Derivative (Place)' dividends shall be paid in respect of any runner for which the Victorian TAB declares a place dividend.
2. Notwithstanding the dividends declared by any Australian TAB, PuntZone reserves the right to apply a cap on, and downwardly adjust, any 'Tote-Based (Place)' dividend such that the 'Tote-Based (Place)' dividend of a runner does not exceed the 'Tote-Based (Win)' dividend of said runner (as declared by any of the three TABs).
3. For the avoidance of doubt, the payout limits / adjustments referred to above apply equally in respect of 'Tote (Place)' and 'Tote-Derivative (Place)' wagers.

Racing Exotics

PuntZone accepts wagers on the following Racing Exotic bet types:
Quinella
A Quinella is when the Customer has predicted the two runners that placed first and second, irrespective of the specific order in which those runners finished.
Exacta
An exacta is when the Customer has predicted the two runners that placed first and second in the correct order.
Trifecta
A Trifecta is when the Customer has predicted the three runners that placed first, second and third in the correct order.
First Four
A First Four is when the Customer has predicted the four runners that placed first, second, third and fourth in the correct order.
Quadrella
A Quadrella (or 'Quaddie') is when the Customer has predicted the winners of the four races designated by the Victorian TAB as forming part of the Quadrella.
For all racing exotics, the Customer will receive the dividend declared by the Victorian TAB.
In the event of a 'jackpot':
1. If the Customer has a Unit Stake of greater than 1, the Customer will receive the dividend derived by dividing the amount of the Victorian TAB jackpot by the Customer's Unit Stake; or
2. If the Customer has a Unit Stake of less than 1, the Customer will receive the dividend derived by multiplying the amount of the Victorian TAB jackpot by the Customer's Unit Stake.
In the unlikely event that the Victorian TAB is not offering racing exotics in the location in which the Customer's exotic wager is struck, the Customer will receive the lowest of the dividends declared by the New South Wales TAB and Queensland TAB.
PuntZone reserves the right to limit the total payout to a Customer in respect of a successful racing exotics wager if the total amount to be paid out to a Customer would exceed the total amount held in the relevant Victorian TAB pool. In such an event, PuntZone may, acting in its sole and absolute discretion, limit the total payout to an affected Customer to the total amount held in said Victorian TAB pool.
The maximum amount that Puntzone will be obliged to payout to a Customer on any single wager shall be limited depending on the bet type as follows:
Gallops
Quinella $5,000
Exacta $2,000
Trifecta $20,000
First 4 $20,000
Quadrella $20,000
Greyhounds
Quinella $5,000
Exacta $2,000
Trifecta $10,000
First 4 $10,000
Quadrella $10,000
Harness
Quinella $5,000
Exacta $2,000
Trifecta $10,000
First 4 $10,000
Quadrella $10,000
Please Note: All amounts stated in the above table are references to the maximum amount of total payout (Including Stake) that a Customer can receive in connection with a racing event.
Except in the case of Quadrella bets, if a runner forming part of a Customer's exotics selections is either scratched or declared a 'non-runner' after the placement of the wager, the Customer will receive a refund in respect of every combination that includes the scratched runner.
In the case of Quadrella bets, if the Customer's Quadrella selections include a runner or runners that is/are later scratched, the 'substitute' (as nominated by the Victorian TAB) will be added to the Customer's selections in place of each of the Customer's selections that have been scratched.
PuntZone may place a limit on the payout (final odds) where there is an irregular dividend on one of the official 3 state totes. If PuntZone deem the pool has been been manipulated, an example of this may be where an Exacta pays more than a Trifecta etc- Management reserves the right to be able to pay the dividend at a pool different to the Vic TAB which is in line with the market.
Notwithstanding any of the above, PuntZone reserves the right to void any or all wagers where PuntZone reasonably suspects that they have been made by an individual or group of individuals acting together in an attempt to manipulate tote-based dividends

Jockey & Box Challenge wagers will be available only on selected meetings and on a 'Win Only' basis.
Jockeys / Boxes accrue points in a 'Jockey/Box Challenge' on the basis of three points for a win, two points for finishing second, and one point for finishing third. The jockey/box that accrues the most points will be declared the winner of the 'Jockey/Box Challenge'.
In the event that two or more jockeys/boxes tie for victory in the 'Jockey/Box Challenge', the 'Dead Heat Rule (Racing)' will apply.
If a listed jockey/box that does not take part in at least one (1) race in the relevant meeting all bets on the market will be voided and a new market re-created.
In the event that a race meeting, or any race comprising that meeting, is postponed, abandoned or declared a 'no-race' by stewards, all wagers in a 'Jockey/Box Challenge' market will be voided unless, at the time of the postponement, abandonment or the first declaration of a 'no-race', a jockey/box has a wholly unassailable lead in the Jockey/Box Challenge in which event all wagers (both successful and unsuccessful) will be settled as if the meeting had proceeded to completion. In the event of an abandonment, postponement or "no -race" and a jockey / box has a lead in which a tie is the worst-case-scenario, all relevant bets shall be voided regardless.
In the case of 'Box Challenge' markets, points are accrued on the basis of the runner's rug number regardless of which 'box' the runner actually starts from.
In the case of 'Jockey/Box Challenge - Exact Score' markets, if there is a tie for victory in the 'Jockey/Box Challenge' - and accordingly no winning score - all wagers placed in the market will be deemed to have lost.

Deductions

A 'Deduction' is a reduction in the fixed price dividend taken by a Customer owing to one or more of the other runners in the same event being withdrawn (i.e. scratched) after the placement of the relevant wager.
A Deduction may be applied to a 'Fixed Odds' wager where:
1. The wager was placed after the declaration of the final field for the relevant event; and
2. The relevant scratching occurs after the wager was placed.
Calculation of Payouts After Deductions
1. Your payout following the application of a Deduction can be calculated as follows:
  1. Stake x Odds (at time of bet placement) = Original Payout
  2. Original Payout x (1 - Deduction) = Final Payout
Amount of Applicable Deduction
1. The Deduction is the percentage by which the fixed price dividend taken by the Customer will be reduced. The amount of any applicable Deductions will be displayed adjacent to the scratched runner on the race screen on any PuntZone wagering channel.
2. The following table details the amount of the Deduction that will be applied to all eligible fixed price wagers (except those wagers placed on Victorian Thoroughbred Racing where Racing Victoria's Victorian Official Deductions will be applied). In the following table:
  1. Column A represents the dividend of the scratched runner at the time of its scratching;
  2. Column B is Deduction applicable to the Customer's 'Fixed Odds' dividend;
  3. Column C is the Deduction applicable to the Customer's 'Fixed Odds (Place)' dividend in a market where 'Place' bets are being paid in respect of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd placegetters;
  4. Column D is the Deduction applicable to the Customer's 'Fixed Odds (Place)' dividend in a market where 'Place' bets are being paid only in respect of the 1st and 2nd placegetters.

Minimum Bet Limits (Racing)

The amount that a Customer is able to stake on any wager will be determined on a case-by-case basis by PuntZone Management depending on the event on which the wager is placed and the prevailing market conditions.
PuntZone will attempt to satisfy all bet requests but may, at its sole and absolute discretion, reject or partially accept certain bet requests subject to any 'Minimum Bet Limits' applicable to the relevant event.
Minimum Bet Limits
1. A number of Australian wagering control bodies prescribe 'Minimum Bet Limits' for the benefit of punters.
2. For events to which a 'Minimum Bet Limit' applies, PuntZone are obliged to accept wagers in which a Customer's potential profit is below the specified threshold.
3. 'Minimum Bet Limits' apply only to Fixed Odds bets. They do not apply to bets on 'Top Fluctuation', 'Best of the Best', 'Tote' or 'Tote-Derivative' products, racing exotics, or multi-leg bets.
4. Click here to view detail of the currently prescribed 'Minimum Bet Limits'

Same-Race Multis (SRM)

Same-Race Multi bets are available on all Australian Thoroughbred and Greyhound races; and on select International Meetings. SRM bets are Multi Bets where the selections relate to a runner winning, finishing top 2, 3 or 4 in the same event. PuntZone Multi Bet rules apply. SRM odds are calculated based upon the relatedness of the selections in the wager and not a multiplication of odds for each selection.
Thoroughbred SRM's are available on race day from 9am local time (post scratchings) and once fixed odds win prices are available for the race.
Greyhound SRM's are available five minutes prior to scheduled race time.
SRM bets will be voided, and stake fully refunded if one or more selections are scratched.
If a voided SRM has been placed into a multi containing other Single/s or Same Game Multi/s, the SRM leg in the multi will be voided but the remainder of the multi will stand and odds will be revised, to take into account the voided leg.
Should a SRM wager be placed where all selections are completely related contingencies, the bet will be paid out at the highest odds of any single selection. E.g. Winx to finish top 2 ($2.25) into Winx to finish top 3 ($1.95.) will be paid at $2.25.
Standard deductions will apply to SRM bets where scratching(s) occur after the bet has been placed.
In the event a field is reduced to five or less runners, any SRM bets struck prior to the reduction in field size will be void.
In the event of a dead heat in one or more SRM legs, standard Dead Heat Rules apply.
SRM bets are subject to PuntZone Payout Limits outlined in 'Section 1F - General Wagering Management (Payout Limits)'.
In the event that one or more of the selections comprising a Same-Race Multi bet is scratched, the relevant bet will be voided and the amount of the stake refunded to the Customer.
If a Customer has placed a Same-Race Multi bet on a race in which a runner is scratched and the scratched runner or runners do not form part of the Customer's Same-Race Multi, standard Racing deductions will apply and the Customer's Same-Race Multi dividend will be recalculated to take account of the scratched runners.
In the event of a dead-heat in one or more of the legs comprising a Same-Race Multi, the 'Dead Heat Rule (Racing)' will apply.

Sports Betting (General Terms)

The following general rules shall apply to all sports betting via the PuntZone Platform except where they are inconsistent with any of the provisions applicable to a specific sport, in which event the sport-specific provisions shall prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

'Dead Heat' Rule (Sport)
1. In the event of a 'Dead Heat' (i.e. where two or more competitors/players in an event are declared to have finished tied), unless a 'Dead-Heat', 'Draw', 'Tie' or equivalent market was an available betting option, all fixed price wagers on the tied runners will be paid out at the face value of the relevant wagering ticket divided by the number of runners involved in the Dead Heat.
'Multi-Leg' Bets (Including Same-Game Multis)
1. In the case of 'Multi-Leg' Bets on sporting events, if any leg or legs forming part of the 'Multi-Leg' bet is voided pursuant to these Wagering Rules, the payout in respect of the affected 'Multi-Leg' bet will be recalculated to take account of the voided leg or legs.
2. For the avoidance of doubt, this rule is applicable to 'Multi-Leg' Bets on sporting events only. Different rules are/may be applicable to 'Multi-Leg' Bets on racing events (including 'Same-Race Multis'). For the rules applicable to 'Multi-Leg' Bets on racing events, please refer to Section 6 (Racing (Thoroughbreds / Harness / Greyhounds)) of these Wagering Rules.
'Player' Markets (Markets Based on Player Performance/Statistics)
In the case of 'Player' match markets and match markets based on player statistics:
1. All Customer bets will be resulted on the basis of the results and statistics published on the website of the relevant sports controlling body. If the results or statistics published on the website of a sports controlling body are modified at any time after the event is initially resulted, Punters Pal reserves the right to re-result any affected Customer bets in accordance with the modified results or statistics.
2. Any Customer bets that are placed on a player that is not in the roster of players as at the commencement of the relevant match shall be declared 'no-bets' and refunded in full. If a Customer's wager is voided in accordance with this Clause, it cannot/will not be reinstated. If a player is subsequently added/restored to the match-day roster, it is the responsibility of the Customer to submit another wager if they wish to bet on the player.
3. Subject to the specific rules relating to the relevant sport, where a player is in the roster of players as at the commencement of the relevant match but does not take the field/court, that player shall be deemed a non-starter and:
  1. All single Customer bets on the player shall be voided and the amount of those bets shall be refunded to the Customer; and
  2. The payout in respect of any affected Multi-Leg Bets (including Same-Game Multis) will be recalculated to take account of any voided leg or legs of that Multi-Leg Bet.

Athletics

Except in the case of 'Head-to-Head' markets, all Athletics win markets are conducted on an 'all-in' basis. In such markets, no refunds will be given in the event that your selection retires, withdraws or is disqualified during the course of a tournament or track meet, or is otherwise a non-starter.
All Customer bets will be resulted on the basis of the finishing order as per the podium presentation except in the event of an official protest being lodged and upheld within twenty-four (24) hours of the completion of an event in which case bets will be resulted on the basis of the finishing order declared by the arbiter of the protest.
For the avoidance of doubt, the finishing order as at the time which is twenty-four (24) hours after the completion of an Athletics event will be deemed the final result. This result will not be subsequently amended for any reason whatsoever including, without limitation, if the official result is changed by the sport's controlling body as a result of, for instance, subsequent protests or doping violations.
Any competitor that is disqualified from an event due to an infringement such as, for example, a false start or doping violation, will be deemed to have taken part in the event.
In the case of 'Head-to-Head' markets:
1. Both competitors involved in the market must take part in the event in order for bets to stand. If either of the competitors in a 'Head-to-Head' market fail to take part in the relevant event, all Customer bets in that market will be declared 'no-bets' and the amount of the stake will be refunded.
2. The competitor that finishes higher in the official finishing order will be declared the winner.
3. If both competitors take part in a multi-discipline or multi-leg event, the winner will be either:
  1. The competitor that completes the most disciplines/legs; or
  2. If the competitors complete the same number of disciplines/legs, the competitor that is higher in the event standings after completion of the last discipline/leg that the two competitors completed.

Australian Rules Football (AFL)

All Customer bets will be resulted on the basis of the result officially declared by the sports controlling body.
In the event of a tie at the end of 'normal' time:
1. Where 'extra-time' is required to be played, all Customer bets will be resulted on the basis of the result officially declared by the sports controlling body after the conclusion of 'extra-time'.
2. Where 'extra-time' is not required to be played:
  1. In the case of wagers into the 'Head-to-Head' market, all Customer bets will be resulted in accordance with the 'Dead-Heat Rule (Sport)' (i.e. affected Customers will receive an amount equal to half of the face value of their bet ticket); and
  2. In the case of wagers into a 'Margin' or 'Half-Time / Full-Time Double' market (or any other market where the 'Draw' is an outcome within the market), all Customer bets will be deemed losing bets.
3. Where a full match 'replay' is required to be played (such as in the Grand Final), all Customer bets on the tied match will be settled on the basis of the result of the tied match and not carried over to the subsequent replay.
If the duration of a match is changed by the relevant sports controlling body::
1. All Customer bets prior to the change in the duration of the match (other than those placed in the 'Head-to-Head' market) shall be voided and the amount of those bets refunded to the Customer.
2. All Customer bets placed in the 'Head-to-Head' market shall stand.
