LIVE BET HELP

Help When a Live Bet Goes Sideways

Disputed Settlement If a live bet settles differently than you expected, open a live chat from your account and our team will pull the market log and official score data to review it with you.
Voided Bet Questions A voided live bet returns your stake to your account balance. If the credit hasn't shown after a few minutes, contact account help and reference the bet ID from your history tab.
Suspended Market Issues Markets suspend automatically when official reviews or game stoppages occur. If your screen shows a pending bet during a suspension, refresh — the status updates once the market reopens or the event resumes.
HOW WE OPERATE

How eachway Runs Its Live Sportsbook

Our live betting rules are applied uniformly across every market, every sport, and every device. Here is what that looks like in practice.

Official Score Sources We settle all live bets using verified official score feeds. NFL and NBA outcomes reference league-official data; MLB results use the official scorekeeper record, not broadcast estimates.
Transparent Market Rules Every live market displays its settlement method before you confirm a wager. Point spreads, moneylines and totals each carry a visible rules note in the bet slip screen.
Consistent Void Policy Our void policy applies the same way for a $5 player prop as it does for a same-game parlay. No market gets special treatment — if the trigger is met, the rule runs automatically.
Same-Game Parlay Integrity Live same-game parlays are checked for correlated-market conflicts at the time of placement. Any leg flagged by our system is rejected before the parlay confirms, not after.
eachway What Our Live Betting Rules Actually Cover

What Our Live Betting Rules Actually Cover

Live betting at eachway operates under a specific set of rules that differ from pre-game wagering. Once a market goes live, odds shift with every play — a first-down conversion or a timeout can move a point spread by two or three points in seconds. If a market suspends mid-wager due to a scoring play or official review, any bet not yet

confirmed is voided and your stake is returned to your account wallet. Settled bets stand regardless of what happens after the fact. Player prop markets — like NFL receiving yards or NBA points — close when the player exits the game, and any wager placed after that point is canceled. We apply these rules consistently across all supported sports.

Live Betting Terms You Should Know

01
What does 'market suspension' mean in live betting?

A market suspension is a temporary halt to betting on a specific live market, triggered automatically by a scoring play, timeout, official review, or data-feed interruption. Unconfirmed bets placed during a suspension are voided.

02
What is a 'live moneyline' bet?

A live moneyline is a wager on which team wins outright, placed after the game has started. Odds shift continuously based on score, time remaining, and in-game momentum, making them different from pre-game moneylines.

03
What does 'bet void' mean on a live wager?

A voided bet is one that is canceled and has no result. Your original stake is returned to your account balance. Voids occur when a market suspends before your bet confirms or when a player prop closes mid-action.

04
What is a 'live same-game parlay'?

A live same-game parlay combines two or more in-game legs from the same event into one wager. All legs must settle as wins for the parlay to pay out. One push or void typically reduces the parlay to the remaining legs.

05
What does 'in-game point spread' mean?

An in-game point spread is a handicap market updated in real time during a live event. The favored team must win by more than the spread, and the number changes with every score and game situation.

06
What is 'bet confirmation latency' in live wagering?

Confirmation latency is the brief processing window between when you submit a live bet and when it is accepted. During that window, odds may shift; the platform will either accept at the new price or return the bet for your review.

Live Betting Rules: What Comes Up Most

These are the questions we hear most from people placing live bets for the first time or dealing with an unexpected result.

Cash-out is available on select live markets when the option appears on your bet slip. The offered amount reflects current market conditions. If the market suspends before you confirm the cash-out, it will not process and your original bet remains active.

If an in-progress game is suspended or postponed before reaching the minimum official time required for settlement, all live bets on that game are voided and stakes are returned to your account balance automatically.

The core rules — void policy, suspension triggers, settlement sources — are consistent across sports. However, the minimum official time before a game is deemed complete differs by sport and league. NFL markets require completion of the regulation period; NBA markets follow a similar standard set by official league rules.

A live player prop closes when the player it covers is confirmed inactive for the remainder of the game — whether through injury, ejection, or a coaching decision. Any bet accepted before the close is settled on the player's final recorded statistic.

When a leg within a live same-game parlay is voided — for example, a player prop that closes early — that leg is removed and the parlay recalculates using the remaining active legs. If only one leg remains, it settles as a straight single.

Yes. Live in-game wagering is only available in states where online sports betting is permitted under local law. Availability at eachway depends entirely on your state's current regulations. If live betting is not offered in your area, certain markets may not appear in your account.
