You agree that any amendments published on our Website will be taken to be effective immediately. Where amendments are material, we will provide you with reasonable notice of these amendments (on Dabble Sports’ Applications or via email) prior to the amendments taking effect. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are aware of the current Rules and Privacy Policy.

2.7 You, as the account holder, are solely responsible for ensuring all Account details and including your payment information (such as your card or bank details) are accurate, complete, and kept up to date. You must notify us immediately if any of your account details or payment information are, or become, incorrect. You must notify us of changes to these details or payment information by logging in to your Account and changing the existing details or payment information accordingly.

2.8 In the event of incorrect payment information on your Account, Dabble will not be held responsible for any financial transactions or payments to this Account arising from you recording incorrect bank account or payment information on your Account. This includes but is not limited to instances where funds are transferred to the wrong bank account due to erroneous details provided by you either intentionally or unintentionally.

2.10 If any of your Account details are incorrect or you have not kept your Account details up to date, we reserve the right to suspend your Account while we investigate the matter.

2.12 You may only have one Account. If you have additional Account(s), then Dabble Sports has the right to consolidate those Accounts into a single Account. While multiple Accounts are in breach of our Rules, you are responsible for all transactions on Accounts which you hold or which we suspect, on reasonable grounds, that you opened.

2.13 In accordance with its NTRWC Licence conditions, Dabble Sports maintains a separate bank account which contains sufficient funds to match Customer balances and future bets. This serves to protect Customer funds in the event of insolvency.

2.14 In this Section 2, and elsewhere in the Rules, Dabble Sports has reserved the right to close and/or suspend an Account in certain circumstances. For the purposes of these Rules, and before closing or suspending your Account, Dabble Sports will endeavour to provide you with prior notice of its intention to close or suspend your Account and provide you with an opportunity to provide reasons as to why your Account should not be closed or suspended. However, in certain circumstances, it may not be possible for Dabble Sports to provide you with prior notice or an opportunity to provide reasons due to our legal, regulatory and contractual obligations. This includes contravening the Dabble's Community Guidelines and Banter channels.

3. Restricted Locations

3.1 Dabble Sports does not permit Accounts to be opened by, or used by, persons who reside outside Australia. You agree that you shall not open an Account, nor attempt to use an Account, if you are outside Australia.

3.2 You accept that if we detect activity which indicates to us that you are, or may be, outside Australia when opening or betting on your Account, we may, at our discretion, suspend or close your Account. Winnings may be forfeited for bets placed while outside Australia.

4. Customer Identification

4.1 To open an Account with Dabble Sports, you must comply with our Customer Identification requirements to enable us to verify your identity and confirm you are over 18.

4.2 You are required to provide Dabble Sports with certain identification information including your full legal name, residential address, date of birth, and details about your income. We need this to comply with legal obligations, such as the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth).

4.3 As part of our account opening process, you accept and consent to Dabble Sports supplying your identification information to a third-party service (e.g., Edentiti, GreenID etc.) for the purpose of verifying your identity and re-verification (as applicable), against third party databases and/or credit headers. This electronic verification process is reliable; however, it cannot verify all customers in this way. This is not a fault of individual customers. None of your personal financial information is passed between third party ID verification providers and Dabble Sports. We may also use other public information and third party databases services to verify your source of wealth/source of funds.

4.4 If we can’t verify your identification information during account opening because you have not provided the relevant information to Dabble Sports, your Account will be temporarily suspended, without notice, pending an investigation. During this time, you won’t be able to deposit funds or place a bet until you are verified.

4.5 To meet our legal and regulatory obligations, we may also ask for additional documents for example proof of your current address and source of wealth/source of funds. Acting reasonably, Dabble Sports may at any time request these documents and/or information to ensure that all information supplied by you is up to date. Acceptable proof of current address in such circumstances may include, at our discretion, a certified copy of one or more of the following documents (which must be dated no more than 3 months prior to the date that the customer provides the document to Dabble Sports):

a) a rates notice;

b) a utility bill.

4.6 In some cases we may need official certified copies of your identification documents and source of wealth/source of funds documents by a permitted certifier. All certified documents must be produced in English or they will be rejected. Upon our request Dabble Sports reserves the right to carry out checks on or contact the individual certifying the documents.

4.7 If you deliberately provide false documents or refuse to provide them, we reserve the right, acting reasonably and in good faith, to suspend or close your Account. Additionally, your Account may be closed if you intentionally or unintentionally submit documents with inaccurate details or, in our reasonable opinion, fail to satisfy our source of wealth and source of funds requirements, including but not limited to situations where the provided information does not meet our regulatory requirements.

4.8 If you use a debit card to fund your Account, we may request clear copies (of the front and back of the card, with card number partly redacted) for verification purposes. Please note that we have the discretion to reject a debit card for various reasons, including situations where the debit card is declined or not valid. Debit cards used to fund your Account must match the registered name on your Account. If the name on the debit card differs from the registered Account holder's name, we may refuse the transaction until we receive consent from the third-party Cardholder. We also reserve the right to request a copy of the front and back of the card linked to your Account at any time. Please be aware that receipt of a card doesn't guarantee the activation or reactivation of your account.

5. Account Security

5.1 You are responsible for ensuring that your username and password (‘Secure Customer Details’) are kept confidential. If you suspect that your Secure Customer Details may no longer be confidential or that there may have been unauthorised use of your Account, you must notify us immediately via email at [email protected] or by calling us on 1800 322 253.

5.2 You will be responsible for all bets on your Account.

5.3 If minors have access to a laptop or computer that you use to log into your Account, Dabble Sports strongly recommends that a child protection software package (e.g. Cyber Patrol and Net Nanny) is installed onto that equipment.

5.4 Dabble Sports app contains adult content and is intended for use by persons over the age of 18.

5.5 In order to use the Dabble Sports app we advise that location data and the DeviceID from your device while using the app will be accessed and used by our integrated security systems to alert us to suspicious activity, for the purpose of protecting your account security and preventing fraud.​

5.6 Account Security Measures: We prioritise the security of your Dabble Sports account. To safeguard against unauthorised access and account takeover, we strongly recommend that you employ the following security measures:

a. Strong Passwords: Please ensure that you use a strong and unique password for your Dabble Sports account. A strong password typically includes a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.

b. Face ID/Fingerprint login: Consider using Face ID or Fingerprint to login to your Account. This technology provides an extra layer of security if your iPhone is lost or stolen.

c. Account Recovery Information: Maintain accurate and up-to-date account recovery information, such as a valid email address and phone number, to assist in account recovery in case of any unforeseen issues.

6. Inactive Accounts

6.1 Your Account will become an ‘Inactive Account’ if you have not made a deposit or placed a bet on your Account for a period of more than 24 months. To keep an Inactive Account open you must pay an Administration Fee of $10 per month ('Administration Cost') which will be deducted from your Inactive Account until your Account balance is $0. To avoid the Administration Cost, you can either place a bet or withdraw your funds into your bank account, at which point your Account will no longer be deemed an Inactive Account.

7. Self-Exclusion

For information on problem gambling generally, please view the What is Responsible Gambling? page on our Website.

7.1 Self-exclusion, in the context of online wagering, refers to a voluntary program or mechanism that allows an individual to restrict their ability to access online wagering services either temporarily or permanently. It is a proactive step taken by individuals who recognise that they want to take a break from online wagering to regain control over their wagering behaviour.

7.2 Dabble Sports provides the ability for Customers to exclude themselves from being able to deposit or bet with their Dabble Sports account either permanently or for a set period of time (options include 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, 1 month, 90 days, 1 year, 2 years)

7.3 Having taken the steps to self-exclude from an online wagering operator, the person who has self-excluded has made a commitment to refrain from wagering with that operator. It is their responsibility to adhere to the self-exclusion agreement and avoid opening a new account or an attempt to bypass the self-exclusion restrictions that have been put in place.

7.4 Dabble Sports makes every reasonable effort to prevent self-excluded Customers from returning and using our service including systems to verify the identity of customers and cross-referencing these details with BetStop - the National Self-Exclusion Register to ensure a self-excluded customer cannot open or re-open an account.

7.5 We may retain such personal information as is necessary and for as long as is necessary to implement the self-exclusion facility as effectively as possible, including your name, address, date of birth and payment details.

7.6 Dabble Sports provides pre-commitment facilities to help you control your spend which can be accessed via the Account section of Dabble Sports’ Applications. This restricts the total level of deposits to a set amount for a specified rolling period (1 day, 7 days, 30 days).

7.7 If Dabble Sports acting reasonably considers that you have deliberately circumvented responsible gambling controls (e.g. by opening a duplicate Account) and placed bets while you are self-excluded, or while registered with Betstop - the National Self-Exclusion Register the following will occur.

  • open/pending bets will be voided and the original stake will be returned to your Account;

  • any bonus bets will be forfeited;

  • the balance of your Account will be returned to you; and

  • you will be fully liable for your actions, and for all activity and bets placed on your Account.

7.8 In addition to 7.7., if Dabble Sports acting reasonably discovers that your Dabble Sports account has been accessed while subject to a Self Exclusion restriction, all resulted or pending bets made during the Self Exclusion period will become void and stakes returned to the relevant bank account.

7.9 Dabble reserves the right to place enforced actions on your account in response to red flag behaviours detected on your account and/or in response to a Responsible Gambling review of your Account. These actions may include, but are not limited to, the application of deposit limits, breaks or permanent self-exclusion applied to your Account.

7.10 If you register your name and details with BetStop - the National Self-Exclusion Register, you are responsible for ensuring all your Account details including your full legal name, address, email address, and mobile phone number are truthful, and accurately match those that you registered with BetStop- the National Self-Exclusion Register.

7.10 Dabble will take all reasonable steps to give effect to your self-exclusion, however this is dependent on the accuracy and completeness of the information you provide us matching with the information you have provided BetStop - the National Self-Exclusion Register.

7.11 We will take steps to match your Account details with those registered on Betstop - the National Self-Exclusion Register and ensure your Account is closed so you can no longer access your Account or place a bet.

7.12 If the personal details you registered with BetStop- the National Self-Exclusion Register are different to the personal details you registered with Dabble to set up an Account, you must notify us immediately so we can update our records and close your Account in accordance with your BetStop- the National Self-Exclusion Register self-exclusion.

7.13 Dabble will not be held responsible for any financial transactions, or bets placed, after you have registered with BetStop - the National Self-Exclusion Register arising from, and due to you intentionally or unintentionally recording personal details (e.g. full name, address, email addresses or phone numbers) with BetStop- the National Self-Exclusion Register that do not match those that are registered on your Account. This includes but is not limited to instances where you access your Account, deposit funds and place bets after you have registered with BetStop- the National Self-Exclusion Register.

7.14 Dabble disclaims any liability for losses incurred by you due to your Account details mismatching with the personal information intentionally or unintentionally provided by you to BetStop - the National Self-Exclusion Register.

15.6 When you make a bet on your Account via the telephone, you are responsible for providing the correct Account details. When you make a bet via the telephone, it will be repeated back to you. A bet is accepted when you either indicate agreement with a bet after it has been read-back to you or, when speaking with a Dabble Sports representative, if you do not disagree with the bet details, when read-back to you before the telephone call ends.

15.7 In the event a telephone call by a Customer in which a bet is being placed is interrupted for any reason (including a mobile phone dropping out) prior to the conclusion of the call, any unconfirmed bet will be deemed not to have been entered into.

15.10 The minimum bet on the Internet is $0.01c and via the telephone is a total of $20.

15.11 in-play betting is where you place a bet after an event has begun (e.g. betting on the outcome of an AFL football match at quarter time). In compliance with the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth), we do not accept in-play betting over the Internet but may accept in-play betting via the telephone.

15.12 In-play betting markets are subject to the same rules as those that apply pre-match. While reasonable effort is made to ensure the accuracy of live scores and the status of games displayed on Dabble Sports Applications in connection with live betting, we accept no liability for the incorrect display of this information.

16. Bet Settlement General Rules

16.1 To the extent there is any inconsistency between these Bet Settlement General Rules and rules applying to a specific event or race, the specific event or race rules will prevail.

16.2 If an event or events occurs beyond the reasonable control of Dabble Sports including an epidemic, pandemic, natural disaster, act of war, terrorism, riot, labour disruption or other cause that materially impacts any sporting or racing fixture which is the subject of a betting market offered by Dabble Sports, Dabble Sports may (acting reasonably) refund, restrict or otherwise alter any affected bet or adjust the payout (in whole or in part) of the affected bet(s) placed on the relevant betting market.

16.3 Where a governing body makes a material change to the structure of a fixture or season and Dabble Sports considers that such a change will have a material impact on a betting market on or related to that fixture or season (including where the venue or a fixture has been changed), all bets on affected markets may be refunded, restricted or have their payout adjusted (in whole or in part) by Dabble Sports at its discretion. All affected bets (including legs of Multi Bets) will be recalculated accordingly.

16.4 Clauses 16.4.1, 16.4.2 and 16.4.3 together are known as the “Dead Heat Rule” and are used to determine payouts in certain circumstances where more than one winner is declared in a betting market.

16.4.1 In the event of a tie, draw or dead heat where no ‘tie’, 'draw' or ‘dead heat’ option was offered by Dabble Sports within a betting market, wagers will be paid at face value of the ticket (odds multiplied by the stake) divided by the number of competitors drawing for that placing, unless otherwise stated in the rules of that market.

16.4.2 In the event for which Each Way betting is available, place ties will be paid such that the Place portion of the face value of the ticket is multiplied by the remaining number of places available and divided by the number of competitors tying for those available number of placings.

16.4.3 In the event of a tie or dead heat where ‘tie’, 'draw' or ‘dead heat’ options (or equivalent) were offered by Dabble Sports, then all bets on the ‘tie’, 'draw' or ‘dead heat’ option will be paid out as winning bets and all bets on other options will be settled as losing bets. Where a draw option is offered, the bet is decided on the result at the end of normal time for all sports unless stated otherwise.

16.5. 'All-In' means that regardless whether or not a particular competitor or team or member of a team starts or completes the event on which a bet is placed, all bets stand and no refunds will be payable for non-participants.

16.6 The maximum payout by Dabble Sports to any one individual or entity (or group deemed by Dabble Sports to be acting on behalf of any one individual or entity) on a fixed odds single or Multi Bet on any of the sports or other events listed in these Rules, Racing Rules, General Sport Rules and Individual Sport Rules is limited to $100,000. Should you place Multi Bets that are similar to each other with respect to the legs in them, that would result in the total payout of those bets exceeding $100,000, Dabble Sports may at its discretion void, refund or amend the payout of the Multi Bets to bring the total payout $100,000.

16.7 If official results are adjusted after a sporting or racing event ends, Dabble reserves the right to adjust resulted outcomes accordingly to ensure accuracy in resulting based on the updated official outcomes of the sporting or racing event.

16.8 Dabble Sports aims to ensure that bets are settled accurately for all sports and racing events. Dabble Sports has the authority to correct errors that may occur during the settlement of a bet. These errors could result from technical issues, human mistakes, or other factors. In cases where a significant error has occurred during the settlement of a betting market, Dabble Sports reserves the right to make necessary adjustments to the results of bets to maintain accuracy. This might include modifying the outcomes based on updated and official results from the sports or racing event. In making adjustments to affected markets and results, it may affect the payouts on bets placed on affected markets and results. This means that if an error is identified and corrected, the amount you receive may be different from the original settled amount.

17. Account Correction

17.1 In the event of a significant error as outlined in 16.8 , whether due to human or other factors, pertaining to any of our betting products or an event within a betting product, we reserve the right to declare the erroneous transaction void and withhold any winning payments. Should we mistakenly pay you an amount exceeding what you are rightfully entitled to, you are required to promptly reimburse us upon our request for the amount incorrectly paid or overpaid.
17.2 By using our services, you grant us permission to adjust your Account, to rectify the error, reflect the true outcome, and recover any funds that were erroneously paid to you.
17.3 You also agree to promptly inform us of any situation that may come to your attention, indicating an incorrect balance in your Account, or where incorrect winnings or dividends have been applied to your Account, including instances where funds have been credited to your Account in error. Unless we notify you otherwise, any bets or transactions related to funds in your Account due to errors will be declared void.

18. Errors

18.1 Dabble Sports endeavours to ensure that no errors are made in setting markets, including but not limited to errors in prices offered, available selections offered, bets accepted on an Account or any errors in exclusions for certain selections. Dabble Sports reserves the right to correct errors and to void any bets prior to or after an event in circumstances where a bet has been accepted and where there has been a material technical, human or other error in setting a market and/or in accepting a bet.

18.2 Where a bet is voided by Dabble Sports prior to an event commencing, Dabble Sports will endeavour to contact you promptly to inform you that the bet has been voided.

18.3 For the purposes of this section, an error in setting a market or accepting a bet will be material in any of the following circumstances:

  • the price struck for a bet is materially greater than a price historically offered on the same or a similar market by Dabble Sports or a competitor bookmaker;

  • there is an error in the price of at least one selection which forms part of a multiple bet, the combined effect of which results in a materially erroneous price;

  • the available selection(s) on a market are so different from the selection(s) historically offered on the same or a similar market by Dabble Sports or a competitor bookmaker; or

  • a person with a good understanding of wagering would reasonably understand that there was an error in a relevant market or in the acceptance of the bet.

18.4 For the purpose of this Section 18:

  • a bet includes a single bet or a multiple bet; and

  • if the erroneous price or selection is part of a multiple bet placed by a Customer, the multiple bet will be either re-calculated at adjusted prices or by excluding the event to which the error relates, at Dabble Sports’ absolute discretion.

19. Dispute Resolution

19.1 If you wish to make a complaint, or if you have a dispute with Dabble Sports, please contact us via email at [email protected].

19.2 If any dispute between you and Dabble Sports cannot be resolved, you can refer the dispute to a representative of the NTRWC via the online 'gambling dispute form' found at  Complain about a sports bookmaker or betting exchange operator for final determination. A dispute must be lodged with the NTRC within 14 days of the date the relevant bet was placed. If a dispute is lodged outside of this period, an application for “out of time” consideration should accompany lodgement of the dispute. Pursuant to section 239 of the Act, determinations by the Commission, in certain situations, can be reviewed by the Northern Territory Civil and Administrative Tribunal (NTCAT).

20. Multi Bets

20.1 A Multi Bet (Multi) is a bet that combines multiple selections (also called a ‘leg’) into the Multi. Standard Multis are calculated by multiplying the odds/price of each leg of the Multi to determine to total dividend. To be considered a winning Multi, each leg of the Multi must win.

For Example:

Leg 1: AFL H2H @ $3

Leg 2: NRL H2H @ $5

Leg 3: A golfer in the British Open to win @ $6

Leg 4: Horse to win the Melbourne Cup @ $4

Total dividend= $360 ($3 x $5 x $6 x $4)

A total stake of $2 x total dividend ($360) placed on this four leg Multi would result in a potential payout of $720.00.

20.2 Multis that include a Same Game Multi (SGM) as one of the legs are treated like a standard Multi and are subject to the same Rules, Terms and Conditions below.

20.3 For clarity, any Multi that contains a SGM as one of the legs of the Multi will operate in the same way as a standard Multi. The SGM bet becomes one of the Multi "legs".

The legs within the SGM all need to win for the SGM "leg" to be marked as a winner.

SGM Multi example:

NBA SGM – Leg 1 @$6

Selection 1: Player A to score 20+ points

Selection 2: Player B to have 10+ rebounds

NRL SGM - Leg 2: @$4
Selection 1: NRL H2H
Selection 2: Match Totals Under

AFL SGM - Leg 3: @$12
Selection 1: AFL H2H
Selection 2: Player C to score 2+ Goals

Total dividend: $6 x $4 x $12 = $288

A total stake of $10 x total dividend ($288) placed on this Multi would result in a potential payout of $2880. The Multi price is determined by multiplying the odds of each SGM in the Multi. If any of the SGM "legs" lose, the Multi loses.

20.4 If one leg within an SGM is void/refunded, we treat that SGM "leg" as void, and recalculate the overall Multi price by removing that voided "leg" price, as soon as practicable.

20.5 Should one leg in a Multi be refunded due to the rules that apply to that leg’s market, the total odds are recalculated excluding that leg. The revised Multi will be displayed in the betslip with the new total dividend (price) and potential payout. If all legs of the Multi are voided/refunded, then the entire Multi will be refunded.

20.6 Multis are not accepted where the outcome of one part of the bet contributes or is related to the outcome of another (related multis). If such bets are inadvertently accepted, Dabble Sports reserves the right to declare the whole Multi void and will refund the bet.

20.7 Multis are not accepted where one leg contains a Same Race Multi (SRM). If a Multi is inadvertently accepted that contains an SRM, Dabble Sports reserves the right to declare the whole Multi void and will refund the bet.

20.8 In the event of a dead heat in one or more Multi legs, standard Dead Heat rules apply.

20.9 Dabble Multis are subject to Dabble’s Maximum Win Limits section outlined in the General Sport Rules.
