At Gamdom, you can place bets on a huge variety of traditional sports! From football (soccer), basketball, and tennis to ice hockey, MMA, baseball, cricket, and more - we cover dozens of sports with plenty of markets to explore.

The experience is designed to be simple for beginners while offering depth for more advanced bettors.

How to Place a Bet at Gamdom

1. Go to the Sports Section

  • Navigate to Sports in the main menu to see available events.

2. Choose a Sport and Event

  • Browse through sports like football, basketball, tennis, esports, or horse racing.

  • Select the event you want to bet on.

3. Pick a Market / Bet Type

  • Choose from markets like Match Result (1X2), Over/Under (Totals), Handicap Betting, Both Teams to Score (BTTS), Correct Score, and more.

4. Pick Your Odds

Odds show you two key things:

  1. How likely an outcome is to happen

  2. How much you’ll win if your bet is correct

Check the Odds

  • Gamdom displays odds in decimal, fractional, or American format.

  • Evaluate the potential payout and probability:

    • Favourites → lower odds, higher chance of winning

    • Underdogs → higher odds, bigger payout, lower probability

Gamdom supports multiple formats: decimal, fractional, American, and more.

Understanding Odds:

  • Favourites are expected to win → lower odds.

  • Underdogs are less likely to win → higher odds.

  • Higher odds = higher potential profit, but lower probability.

Simply click on the odds you want, and the bet will be added to your Bet Slip.

5. Pick Your Type of Bet

  • On Gamdom, you can choose from three types of bets: Single, Combo, or System.

7. Place a Bet and Check Your Bet Slip

Your Bet Slip is your virtual ticket for a bet. It shows your selections, odds, stake, and potential winnings.

This is also where you can cash out your bet if the option is available.



Overtime

As per our Terms & Conditions, NOT all markets include overtime unless otherwise stated. If overtime is included, it will be clearly stated in the heading of the match before the player places a bet.

Bet Features

Cashout

The Cashout feature allows you to settle your bet before the event concludes. This can help you:

  • Secure winnings early if your bet is performing well

  • Minimise losses if the outcome looks unfavourable

Important details:

  • Cashout is not available for all events.

  • The cash-out amount is always lower than the predicted win.

  • If cashed out pre-match, the cashout amount will always be lower than your initial stake.

🚀 Quick Bet

Quick Bet lets you place a bet instantly with one tap, skipping the usual two-step confirmation process.

How It Works:

  • Activate Quick Bet by setting a default betting amount.

  • Once enabled, simply click on the odds you want, and your bet will be placed immediately - without being added to the Bet Slip or needing further confirmation.

💥 Bet Boost

Bet Boost lets you place bets on selected events with increased odds, giving you the chance to enhance your potential payout on specific selections.

Sports Coverage:

  • Currently Available: Each single soccer event and all major basketball events.

  • Coming Soon: All major tennis events will feature Bet Boost options.

Pushes & Resettlements

Pushes:

  • A push happens when the outcome of your bet matches the line or total exactly (common with Over/Under or Handicap bets).

  • In this case, your stake is returned, and no win or loss is recorded.

Resettlements:

  • Sometimes, bets need to be adjusted after the event due to errors, rule clarifications, or technical issues.

  • Resettled bets may result in adjusted winnings or refunded stakes.

  • Gamdom follows its Terms & Conditions to ensure fair outcomes for all affected bets.

Bet Limits and Maximum Payouts

Gamdom sets minimum and maximum stakes for each market and event. These limits help ensure fair play and manage risk for high-value bets. You can see the allowed stake range when placing a bet in your Bet Slip.

Each event and market also has a maximum payout, which is the highest amount you can win from a single bet. If your potential winnings exceed this limit, your payout will be capped at the maximum amount. Max payouts may vary depending on the sport, market, or type of bet.

FAQs

Why is the Cashout Amount different from the win amount?

The Cashout amount shows what you can get right now, not the full win if everything goes perfectly. It changes because odds move as the game goes on, the closer the event is to finishing, the more predictable it becomes, and how your bet is doing - if it’s not going well, the cashout will be lower to match the risk.

When is Cashout available?

The Cashout option at Gamdom is available only for certain events and markets. You can use it once the event has started (live/in-play) or for some pre-match bets, depending on the event rules. Keep in mind that not all bets offer cashout, so check your Bet Slip to see if the option is available.

Why was my bet voided?

A bet can be voided for several reasons, including:

  • The event was postponed or cancelled.

  • Incorrect or unavailable odds at the time of settlement.

  • Technical issues or errors during bet placement.

  • The market does not include overtime, and the outcome was decided in overtime.

When a bet is voided, your stake will be returned to your account. Always check the market rules and event details before placing a bet.

Where can I find my Sports Bet ID at Gamdom?

Your Sports Bet ID can be found in your Bet Slip or under Open Bets / Bet History. It’s a unique number assigned to each bet for tracking and reference purposes.

Example: 5853daa-1641-11f0-847a-22d64d8a219a

Can my bet limits be increased?

Bet limits cannot be increased upon individual requests. However, our team continuously monitors account activity, and limits may be increased automatically in the future based on responsible play and account behaviour.

Can I cancel my bet at Gamdom?

No, once a bet is placed at Gamdom, it cannot be cancelled or reversed. Make sure to double-check your selections, stake, and bet type before confirming. Some bets may offer a Cashout option during the event if you want to settle early.
