Each winning tip score equals the price of the team at the time the tip is submitted as appearing on your tipping screen.
If no prices are available, the score for a winning tip will equal the starting price of the winning team at Sportsbetting.com.au
For NRL tipping - If the match is a draw at full time, tip score equals the price of the team awarded for selecting the winner of the golden point play off. If it is still a draw after golden point no points are awarded for the game.
For AFL, Super Rugby and Mitre 10 Rugby competitions - No points are awarded for drawn games.
For A-League/EPL you must select the 'Draw' to receive the price when the match results in a draw. If you select a team in a drawn match you will receive no points for the match.
A score margin is required to be entered for 1 game within the round.
Margin Games
For one match in each round you will be required to enter a margin. The margin represents the amount that you predict your selected team will win by. Your margin score will be used to determine the winner of a round or the entire competition if the tipping scores are equal. The lower your margin score the better.
Calculating margins
If the team you tip wins the match, your margin score is the difference between the actual margin in the Full Time Score that the team you tipped won by, and the margin your entered. For example if you tipped Australia
Full time score
Australia 54 vs Italy 6
Margin entered
36
Actual Margin
48
Margin Score
48 - 36 = 12
If the team you tipped loses the match, your margin score is the actual margin plus the margin entered. For example if you tipped Italy:
Full time score
Australia 54 vs Italy 6
Margin entered
6
Actual Margin
48
Margin Score
48 + 6 = 54
If a tipper does not submit a tip for a game they are awarded the away team.
If a tipper does not submit any tips for a round then they do not receive points for the first winning tip in that round.
Tips can be entered up to advertised start time for the game.
After the advertised start time has passed tips for the game cannot be entered.
Tips cannot be changed after they are submitted.
For competitions where tippers enter a margin, the margin score will be used to determine the winner of a round or the overall competition if the tip scores are equal. For example if two tippers share 1st place on 100 points, the tipper with the lowest margin score will be the winner.
If the margin feature is not turned on and tippers have equal tipping scores, or if tippers have equal tipping scores and equal margins, the winner will be awarded using a count back system where the tipper who led most recently will be awarded the prize.
If tippers cannot be split using these methods then the prize will be shared.

Full time score
New Zealand 54 vs Australia 6
Margin entered
36
Actual Margin
48
Margin Score
48 - 36 = 12

Full time score
New Zealand 54 vs Australia 6
Margin entered
6
Actual Margin
48
Margin Score
48 + 6 = 54

For competitions where entrants enter a margin, the margin score will be used to determine the winner of a round or the overall competition if the pick scores are equal. For example if two entrants share 1st place on 100 points, the entrant with the lowest margin score will be the winner.
If there is tip score and margin score tie-break, the winner of the round or the overall competition will be the entrant who was first to enter their picks.
If entrants cannot be split using these methods then the prize will be shared.
