1. How to make a bet?

First, log in with your username and password. Select one or several bets from our line-up and use the mouse to click on an estimated outcome. Your bet will then appear in the bet slip on the right-hand side of the page. Next, specify the amount you wish to stake and your preferred type of bet (single, system or chain). In the third and final phase, you can either confirm the bet or cancel it. Please note that our GTCs do not permit the cancelation of any bets once they have been placed.

2. What are the types of bets?

At OneBet you can choose different types of bets. Starting with one prediction, you can use the “Single” bet option (single), with two or more predictions you can place “Express” bets, and with three or more predictions you can place a “System” or “Chain” bet. And if you would prefer to place “Single” or “System” bets, you need to select the desired option.

3. What is a “Single” bet?

A “Single” bet is the simplest form of betting. You predict an outcome, specify the desired stake and place the bet. If your prediction is correct, you win the bet. The winnings are calculated by multiplying the odds by the stake.

4. What is an “Express” bet and how is it calculated?

“Express” is a bet consisting of two or more events in which a necessary condition is that none of the events should lose. “Express” bets’ total odds are calculated by multiplying the odds of all the individual predictions.

5. Which bets can be combined to form an “Express” bet?

The vast majority of the offered bets may be combined freely in an “Express” bet. There are a few exceptions, however, such as certain Formula – 1 bet that can only be placed as “Single” bets. The bookmakers decide which bets can be combined, and their decision is based on various factors, such as the respective game or the event. You will be informed of their decision by the time the bets are placed. Please note: several bets on the same event/outcome cannot be placed as an “Express” or “System” bet.

6. What is the ”Chain” bet and how is it calculated?

A “Chain” bet is a combination of “Single” bets independent from each other. A necessary condition is winning the first event. The procedure of chain calculation depends on the order of bets mentioned in the given ticket. From the winning of the first event the sum equal to the bet for the second event is removed and the added sum makes the “Chain account”. If the next event is lost, the sum of the “Chain account” is used. Each next event is calculated by this principle. If the sum on the chain account is less than the sum of the first single bet – in the following event the single bet is counted proceeding from what is left in the account. If there isn’t any money left in the chain account, the chain is interrupted and the bet is lost. In the case of a win, the amount depends on the number of the events won and what their coefficients are.

Let’s consider this example:

Leg	Event	Stake	Odds	Outcome
1	event	R3	2odd.	Win
2	event		1.5	Win
3	event		2	Lose
4	event		3	Win
5	event		1.5	Lose

As a result of the first event ~ R6 is generated, from which ~ R3 is transferred to the next event as the sum of the bet. And ~ R3 is transferred to the “chain account”. From the second event being won ~R4.50 is generated, from which ~ R3 is transferred as a bet sum for the next event, and the remaining ~R1.50 is transferred to the “chain account” and the sum is ~ R4.50. As the third event is lost, ~ R3 is taken from the chain account for the fourth event, and only ~ R1.5 remains in the account. After the win fourth event is won ~ R9 is generated , ~ R3 of this sum is transferred as the bet sum for the fifth event and ~ R6 is added to the “chain account”, and the sum of the chain account becomes ~ R7.50. The fifth event is lost; this means that the winnings of this chain are ~ R7.50, the same amount as in the “chain account”.

7. What is the “System” bet? How is it calculated and how much is the minimum sum of each bet?

“System” is a bet which consists of at least three events. The program forms variants of the events you have selected. For example, if you select a 2/5 system, it means that at least 2 events from 5 must win for the bet to win. The minimum sum of each bet depends on the selection of the system.

8. What is a “Handicap”?

A handicap is a head start given to a selection expressed in goals/points/sets/frames etc. depending on the type of the competition. The handicap is offered by the bookmaking company and it can be “positive” (1), “negative” (-1) and “zero”. For example, if you made a bet on “Handicap 1(2)” on a football match, this means you allowed Team 1 a 2 - goal ‘head start’.
• If the match ends 1-1, then adding the handicap will produce a score of 3-1 and the bet will win.
• If the match ends 0-3, then adding the handicap will produce a score of 2-3 and the bet will lose.
• If the match ends 0-2, then adding the handicap will produce a score of 2-2 and the bet will result in a
push.
• If the handicap is “negative”, you need to subtract rather than add.

This kind of stakes are counted equally.

Let us consider a few other options of a handicap.

Bet W1 Handicap (-1) can win only when the first team wins the match by two goals.

Bet W2 Handicap (1) can win only when the second team does not lose the match (draw or victory of the second team).

Bet X Handicap (1) can win only when the first team wins the match by one goal (or when the second team loses by one goal).

Bet X Handicap (-1) can win only when the first team loses the match by one goal (if the second team wins by one goal).

Bet W1 Handicap (-2) can win only when the first team wins the match by three goals.

Bet W2 Handicap (2) can win only in the following result of the match:

A draw

The victory of the first team by one goal

The victory of the weak team.

Bet X Handicap (2) can win only when the first team wins by two goals.

Bet X Handicap (-2) can win only when the first team loses by two goals (or the second team wins by two goals).

9. What is a “Double”?

A “Double” bet means that one of the players of the two teams should score two or more goals during the given match.

10. What is a “Hattrick”?

A “Hattrick” bet means that one of the players of the two teams should score three or more goals during the given match.

11. What is “Poker”?

A “Poker” bet means that one of the players of two teams should score four or more goals during the given match.

12. What do W1W2 / W1X /X W2 and other bets mean?

In this kind of bet the first symbol shows the result of the first half, and the second symbol shows the result of the game. For example, W1W2 bet means that the first team has won in the first half but the second team has won in the total game. W1 X bet means that the first team has won in the first half, and the overall game has ended in a draw.

13. What goal betting tips do you offer?

The following ways of scoring can be distinguished: direct free kick, penalty kick, header, own goal, etc.

Please note that winnings limits may also be lowered for a short time when our bookmakers update the odds. It is usually possible to place the same bet with higher stakes shortly thereafter. In the meantime, however, the odds may also have been changed.

15. What is the minimum/maximum size of the bet?

The maximum amount of one bet is defined by the maximum amount of the winnings specified above. If when choosing a bet you have received a message that the amount of your bet exceeds the maximum amount, reduce the amount of the bet accordingly. The minimum amount of a bet is ~R 0.10.
