One of the great features bet365 offers is the ability to edit your bet before it settles. You can do this in-play and pre-match to increase your stake and add or swap selections. This is a great choice if extra funds become available from settled bets.
Add, swap or remove selections from your bet, increase your stake or change your bet type before your bet settles.
The edit bet function uses the Cash Out feature to cash out your current bet and places a new bet using the Cash Out amount as the new stake. You can edit your bets that haven't been decided yet as long as you can Cash Out. So, if you made a bet with several selections and some have already been decided, you can still change the ones that haven't.
When you use this feature, the prices for your bet will be updated to match the latest odds, not the ones you originally picked. So, make sure you review your choices and the current odds before you decide to make any changes.
You can change your bet type and amount. You can add selections to a single bet, or a treble bet could be changed to three doubles. You can also change your Win-Only bet to an Each-Way bet.
There is a slight time delay while validating an Edit Bet. If one of your selections is suspended or odds change during this delay, your Edit Bet request may be declined, so don’t rely on the feature always being available.
If you've taken advantage of one of bet365’s bonus code offers when placing your initial bet, check the specific Terms and Conditions to confirm that edited bets contribute toward the bonus qualifying/rollover criteria.
Steps:
You will see the Edit Bet option in the top right of your bet slip. Selecting this will allow you to edit your options.
Available Options |
How to edit |
---|---|
Add Selection |
Choose the Add Selection option. A pop-up will appear, allowing you to browse the site and add selections to a temporary bet slip. You can then review your new prices and select Add to Bet. |
Swap Selection |
Click on a selection on your bet slip. A pop-up will open, allowing you to choose another option on the same market. |
Remove Selection |
Click the X to the left of the selection you wish to remove. If you change your mind, you can click Undo. |
Change Your Bet Type |
Your bet type is shown at the top of the bet slip. Clicking on it will open a Change Bet Type pop-up where you can view all the available bet types and the new stake amount. You can also select or deselect the Each Way check box. |
Increase Your Stake |
At the bottom left of your bet slip, you will see your stake's current Cash Out value. When you tap this, a window will appear where you can put more money into your bet, which changes how much you can Cash Out. After you add the money, you'll see a new amount that shows how much you can Cash Out now, including the extra you put in. |
After editing your bet, you must ensure you save your changes. Tap the Save Changes button. It will then ask you to Confirm your changes. You have 5 seconds to confirm the changes to save your edited bet. Once saved, your bet will display as edited.
When a bet is edited using the Edit Bet function all prices will be updated to the current odds on that market, rather than the initial price taken.
There may be a number of reasons why your Edit Bet may be unsuccessful. If a price changes or a market is suspended before your changes are approved then your edit bet request may be unsuccessful. If your edited bet exceeds any bet limits on your account, this could also cause your request to be declined. If you are unsure why your request has been declined contact Bet365 customer services.
Edit Bet can only be used on an In-Play event if bet365 allow In-Play betting on the event. Otherwise the function will be unavailable once the event is underway.
