General Rules
1. Official Results
All bets referring to the final result of an event or tournament will be settled on the official result published by the governing authority of the respective sport, league, or event, usually immediately after the conclusion of the event.
2. Tournament Outright Bets
Unless otherwise stated in the exceptions below, in the betting offer, or in the special rules of Volleyball, the principle of "all bets stand" applies to all Tournament Outright bets.
This means that if the team on which the bet has been placed fails to participate for any reason, the bet will be settled as a loser, provided that the tournament takes place.
Only in exceptional circumstances will bets be declared void.
Market Type | Settlement Rule |
Tournament takes place and selected team does not participate | Bet lost |
Exceptional circumstances | Bets may be declared void |
3. Unplayed or Postponed Matches
An unplayed or postponed match will be treated as a non-runner for settlement purposes unless it is played within 24 hours of the original scheduled start time.
Situation | Settlement |
Match played within 24 hours | Bets stand |
Match not played within 24 hours | Non-runner |
4. Interrupted Matches
If a match starts, is interrupted, and is completed after a delay of less than 4 hours, all bets will stand.
If the match has to be replayed because the delay exceeds 4 hours, all bets will be void, unless the outcome of the specific market has already been determined.
Situation | Settlement |
Match completed after less than 4 hours delay | Bets stand |
Match replayed after more than 4 hours delay | Bets void* |
* Unless the specific market outcome has already been determined.
5. Team Refusal or Incomplete Team
If a team refuses to play or complete a match, or is declared incomplete for either a set or the entire match, all bets will be void, regardless of the official result, unless the specific market outcome has already been determined.
6. Venue Changes
If the venue of a match is changed, bets already placed will stand, provided that the designated home team remains the home team.
If the home and away teams for a listed match are reversed, bets placed based on the original listing will be void, except where both venues are neutral.
Situation | Settlement |
Venue changed, home team unchanged | Bets stand |
Home and away teams reversed | Bets void |
Both venues neutral | Bets stand |

Will They Need to Play Golden Set?
Any market that specifically references the Golden Set in its description.
Volleyball - Pre Event and In Play
8. Match Result Markets
All markets are based on the result at the end of regulation play, unless otherwise stated, such as markets relating to qualification or lifting the trophy.
9. Match Completion
If a match is not completed, all bets will be void unless the outcome has already been determined and a result established.
Postponed matches will be void.
Situation | Settlement |
Match completed | Bets settled normally |
Match not completed | Bets void* |
Postponed match | Bets void |
* Unless the outcome has already been determined.
10. Total Points Markets
Total Points markets require customers to predict whether the total number of points scored will be over or under a specified line.
These markets are offered for:
The entire match
Individual teams
Individual sets
Two-way betting will always be quoted in half-points.
Example:
Market | Odds |
Under 45.5 Points – 1st Set | 5/6 |
Over 45.5 Points – 1st Set | 5/6 |
Total Points Odd/Even markets are also available.
11. Race to Points Markets
Race to 5, 10, 15, and 20 Points markets are offered for each set. These markets predict which team will reach the specified point total first.
Markets such as "To Win 5th Point", "To Win 10th Point", "To Win 15th Point", etc., should not be confused with Race to markets.
These markets are settled on the relevant point played. For example, if the score is 2-2, whichever team wins the next point will be deemed the winner of the 5th Point market.
12. Correct Score Betting
Correct Score betting is offered for each set and requires customers to predict the exact score of that set.
The market "Team X by Any Other Score" refers to the selected team winning by a score of 25-14 or less.
13. Non Completion
If a competition is not completed due to unforeseen circumstances, BetVictor will settle all bets in accordance with the decision made by the relevant governing body.
