A System Bet allows you to combine multiple selections into several smaller bets, rather than requiring all selections to win like a traditional accumulator.
This means you can still receive a return even if not all of your selections are successful.
How does a System Bet work?
With a System Bet, your selections are grouped into different combinations. For example, if you select 4 events, you may be able to place:
- Doubles (2 selections per bet)
- Trebles (3 selections per bet)
- 4-Fold Accumulator (all 4 selections)
Because your stake is spread across multiple combinations, not every selection has to win for you to receive a return. Example: You choose 4 selections:
- Team A to win
- Team B to win
- Team C to win
- Team D to lose
With a traditional accumulator, the entire bet would lose because one selection was unsuccessful.
With a System Bet, some of the winning combinations may still pay out because they do not include the losing selection.
Why place a System Bet?
A System Bet can:
- Reduce the risk of a single losing selection ruining your entire bet.
- Provide a greater chance of receiving a return.
- Allow you to combine multiple selections in different ways.
Important information
System Bets generally require a higher total stake than a standard accumulator because multiple bets are placed at the same time.
The total cost of the bet will depend on the number of selections and the type of system chosen.
Returns are based on the number of winning combinations and the odds of each selection.
You can view the available System Bet options directly in the bet slip when you add multiple selections.
