i)  You agree that Your Account is not a bank account and is therefore not to be insured, guaranteed, sponsored, or otherwise protected by any deposit or banking insurance or by another other similar insurance system.

3. Member Identification and Verification

3.1. For a Member to validly open an Account with Rivalry they must first successfully undertake Identification and Verification. This must be in compliance with the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth) (AML/CTF Act) and its associated rules (AML/CTF Rules and, together with the AML/CTF Act, the AML/CTF Legislation). Pursuant to Section 4.2.6 of the AML/CTF Rules an individual Member must provide a minimum proof of their full name, date of birth and their residential address (KYC). You accept and acknowledge that Rivalry must abide by the AML/CTF Legislation.

3.2.  You agree that the personal details which You provide to Rivalry to open an Account are true and correct, are not misleading (including by omission) and that they are Your own personal details and not the details of anyone else. You acknowledge that it is an offence under the AML/CTF Legislation to knowingly give information that is false and misleading to a reporting entity (such as Rivalry). Rivalry relies on the information that You provide being true and correct. If Rivalry has reasonable ground to suspect that the warranty set out in this clause is false, and/or any information You provide is untrue, incorrect, or misleading, then, without limiting any other provision of these Terms & Conditions:

a)  Rivalry may suspend or close Your Account; 

b)  Rivalry may cancel or void any transactions placed with it and Rivalry will not be obliged to pay any winnings which might otherwise have been payable to You;

c)  Rivalry may retain (or recover from You) the value of any cancelled or voided transactions and any winnings paid to You; and

d)  We may report the matter to law enforcement authorities and regulatory bodies. 

3.3.  Rivalry and a prospective Member must meet any Identification and Verification, as well as due diligence-based obligations, as specified in the AML/CTF Legislation prior to a Member opening an Account. A Member will not be able to use the website until such time as the Member successfully completes Identification and Verification. A failure to comply with Identification and Verification obligations may also result in an investigation of the Account and where a reasonable basis exists, a referral to the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) or another relevant authority.

3.4.  Following the Member establishing an Account, the Member accepts that We will provide that Member’s Personal Information (including KYC information) to Our choice of a third party credit based entity, for the purposes of independent Identification and Verification services (Third Party IDV). Third Party IDV may involve checking the provided identification across other third-party databases. Third Party IDV is an independent service, not under the control of Rivalry, and accordingly We cannot guarantee that 100% of Our Members will be successfully verified this way or the timeframes of Third Party IDV. Unfortunately, this may mean Your Identification and Verification may not be successful, or could be delayed. We are not responsible for any such delay or Identification and Verification failure. Rivalry will pass on only the bare minimum of Your Personal Information required to meet the Third Party IDV.

3.5.  In line with the minimum Identification and Verification requirements set under AML/CTF Rules, confirmation of Your residential address must occur. Where KYC documents are required to be provided to Rivalry and Your current address is not clearly on the front or back of the provided documents, You must provide an acceptable alternate proof of Your current residential address. An acceptable proof of address may include, at the discretion of Rivalry, 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 Member provides the document to Rivalry);

a) a rates notice of Your principal place of residence;

b) a utility bill; and/or;

c) a statement from a financial institution.

3.6.  All documents related to Identification and Verification which You are required to provide to Rivalry must be provided in English or they may be rejected. Rivalry may at its discretion elect to conduct further investigations into any documents provided. Further investigations may not be limited to instigating direct contact with the Member to confirm any provided documents, or its contents. Rivalry reserves its right to reject any certified KYC document provided to Rivalry. Further, Rivalry reserves the right to ask for additional information or documentation be supplied if the copies are illegible, unclear, We need further information to satisfy Ourselves of Your identity, or otherwise comply with AML/CTF Legislation. This includes, from time to time, where Rivalry may request proof that all KYC documents are up to date and to produce further documents if there has been a change. Any further request made documents in these circumstances will require newly provided documents to also be certified. If You do not provide, or if Rivalry is unable to verify, such additional information, Your Account will be suspended, and You will not be able to transact or withdraw any funds until such time as Your identity has been verified.

3.7.  Where a Member deliberately falsifies any KYC documents, related document or details for any purpose associated with their interactions with Rivalry, or with opening and/or transacting on an Account, Rivalry may suspend or cancel the Account without prior notice to the Member and void any pending or resulted Bets.

3.8.  Rivalry may, on request, require further and better copies of any debit, credit, virtual, prepaid, travel card, or it’s like (Card Payment), that is not legible and used to fund an Account. Rivalry may choose to reject any form of Card Payment submitted at their discretion, in circumstances not limited to, the rejection or dishonour of a card. A Card Payment must match the Member’s Account details, or otherwise be verified. Where a Card Payment is used which does not match Your Account details, or otherwise has been verified by Us, Rivalry may reject the transaction or suspend the Account until the consent, validity, or legality of the transaction is proven.

3.9.  Rivalry reserves the right, at any time, to:

a)  request a bank statement associated with an actual or proposed Card Payment; or

b)  request You confirm the exact value of a small authorisation amount We have charged the third-party account attached to the Card Payment method; or

c)  request a legible copy of the front of the relevant Card Payment method.

4. Account security

4.1. Rivalry takes account security seriously and expressly requires a Member to treat their Account in a secure and responsible manner. A Member is responsible for their own Account login credentials that include any; Personal Identification Number (PIN), password, login number or identifier (Login Credentials). A Member must keep their Login Credentials confidential. Where a Member believes their Account or Login Credentials, or device they have used to access the Website or their Account are lost, forgotten, or compromised they must immediately notify Us. We may choose to issue new Login Credentials, or, at Our sole discretion a new Account. In turn, We reserve Our rights to reject or invalidate any transactions that occur using a Member’s past Account or Login Credentials.

4.2.  Where a Member wishes to use a nominated person to access to their Account or use their Login Credentials they must first receive written approval from Us first. We may refuse such request at Our discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, a nominee includes, but is not limited to a family member, an authorised entity or company, business or group of people (Nominee). We may request certified documentation from any proposed Nominee, or a written endorsement of the Account holder for the proposed Nominee to access the Account. The Member remains solely responsible for their Account, including but not limited to transactions, Bets and Account changes made by any Nominee. We do not accept any liability, loss or otherwise that results from a Nominee using a Member’s Account.

4.3.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Member is responsible for all Bets and any losses on their Account, be that by way of use by a Nominee or otherwise, where their Login Credentials have been used. This also includes a situation where:

a)  Your device remembers or retains Your Login Credentials (or part of Your Login Credentials) for a certain period of time or indefinitely, either automatically or because You have selected an option to do so; 

b)  Your device keeps you logged into Your Account for a certain period, either automatically or because You have selected an option to do so; or

c)  You do not manually log out of Your Account. 

4.4.  A Member is responsible for ensuring that no person under the age of eighteen (18) (Minor) accesses or uses their Account. Where possible, a Member should be aware of the presence of any Minors while placing a Bet and seek to limit any exposure to a Minor of gambling and potential gambling harm. In circumstances where the Member shares a laptop or computer with a Minor, Rivalry strongly recommends the installation and use of parental/child protection software such as NetNanny or the like.

4.5.  A Member is solely responsible for the balance of their Account and should confirm and query immediately any suspect transaction. We recommend that a Member check the balance of their Account each time they log onto their Account or at any time they place a Bet. It is the responsibility of the Member to also immediately notify Us where any suspected Account discrepancy is discovered.

4.6.  Rivalry’s Website contains adult content and is intended for use by persons over the age of 18. 

4.7.  To use the Website (including via mobile application), We advise that location data from Your device whilst using the Website will be accessed and used by Our integrated security systems to alert Us to suspicious activity, for the purposes of protecting Your Account security and preventing fraud.

Current acceptable forms of deposit types are listed when payment is prompted for the ‘Wallet’ function.

5.2.  A Member may make a deposit into their Account using one of the following available currencies (the list may be subject to change);

a) Australian Dollar (AUD); and

5.3.  You acknowledge and agree that the Account or Wallet function is only available for the sole purpose of making Bets or gambling via Rivalry (Sole Purpose). Where Rivalry reasonably believes that funds deposited into an Account are for a purpose that deviates from the Sole Purpose, We reserve Our right to decline any deposited amounts, return the funds to the Funding Instrument used to fund the Account (where possible), and close the Account.

5.4.  You agree that when You deposit funds into Your Account via any approved deposit methods (as set out in clause 5.1), You are purchasing from Rivalry a top up to Your Account balance.

5.5.  You agree and acknowledge that any deposits and withdrawals from Your Account must be from/to a verified Funding Instrument unless otherwise determined by Rivalry in its absolute discretion. 

5.6.  If Rivalry discovers that an Account is not funded by a Funding Instrument held in the Member’s name, or they are not demonstrably and expressly authorised to use the Funding Instrument, Rivalry may return the funds to the same Funding Instrument used to make any such deposit. If this determination takes place after Bets have been placed, Rivalry reserves the right to void any resulted or pending Bets on the Member’s Account. If Rivalry determined that there is not enough information to prove the owner of a particular Funding Instrument, We reserve the right to request certified documentation as proof of ownership or a right to use a Funding Instrument prior to making any decision. You consent to allow Rivalry or its authorised representative to make direct contact with Your financial institution to confirm any transaction that requires clarification or confirmation of a right to make the payment, or its correctness. Rivalry will only use this right sparingly and whereby it is reasonable to do so.

5.7.  Rivalry requires a Member to “turnover” or Bet through their Account at least once before a withdrawal or withdrawal request is made by the Member. For example, if You deposit $100, You must place $100 in Bets before withdrawing any winnings.

5.8.  If a Member is innocently restricted, or an error takes place during their first Bet, or for any other reason as determined by Rivalry, Rivalry reserves its right to waive the obligation in clause 5.7 in its absolute and reasonable discretion. 

5.9.  Rivalry may also at its discretion require a Member to deposit funds back to its original Funding Instrument.

b)  direct contact with a financial institution as described in clause 5.6 above to establish whether the withdrawal is authorised and correct.

This fee will be deducted from the amount requested by the Member. Any other banking fees associated with funding or withdrawing monies associated with a Member’s Account is the sole responsibility of the Member. In the event that Rivalry is charged, or is notified of a potential charge, We reserve Our right to pass on any such charge to the Member. Rivalry reserves the right to pass on any incurred transaction fees to Members who We determine make deposits into their Account for purposes other than the Sole Purpose.

Third parties should not attempt to transact on a Member’s Account. Rivalry reserves its right to cancel any unauthorised or prohibited third party related transaction if it detects such transactions. Rivalry may also contact a third party to confirm if they have permission to use Your Account. Following any investigations by Rivalry, We may choose to suspend or cancel Your Account. Rivalry may also take any further action it deems necessary to fairly and reasonably remedy the third party situation. Members accept that Rivalry will review each situation on a case-by-case basis taking into account deposits, withdrawals, Bets and any other information available. 

5.14.  You agree that where, by determination of Rivalry, an Account has not been used in good faith (including where a person fails to disclose their identity or payment information), Rivalry may refuse future transactions on that Account.

6.2.  Where You dispute a transaction relating to a third party such as BPAY or a banking institution, We may elect to temporarily suspend Your Account and conduct an investigation into the transaction. We reserve Our rights to affect any suspension immediately, without notice and to further seek to recover any cost relating to that investigation from You.

6.3.  We reserve the right to request information in relation to the point of origin of funds in any transaction that We believe may be suspicious or require further investigation.

7.1.  Where We reasonably believe deposited funds or winnings associated with an Account are by an unauthorised or fraudulently used Funding Instrument, We reserve Our right to report the fraud or misuse and/or to close the Account.

7.3.  To detect fraudulent activity We may, from time to time, monitor one or more Accounts We deem to be displaying unusual activity. We reserve the right to close an Account, suspend Account (pending a full investigation), and void transactions and Bets as We see reasonably necessary where We believe there to be a risk of fraudulent activity involved.

7.4.  Where We detect or become aware of any system that is being used to exploit variation in odds for a particular event, esport or sport competition, between two or more bookmakers, in order to guarantee a profit irrespective of the outcome of the event (Arbitrage Betting), and that system is deemed by Us to have a harmful or negative affect on Us, We reserve Our right to suspend or cancel Your Account pending an investigation into the conduct that We believe constitutes the Arbitrage Betting. This may or may not involve voiding any or all Bets made by such persons reasonably determined to be involved in Arbitrage Betting.

10.1.  All Bets placed on any Account are considered to be placed and received in the NT, Australia.

10.2.  We are licensed to provide Betting and gambling services in Australia via the NT. Accordingly, We do not represent or warrant that placing or receiving Bets within Your Account will comply with the legal requirements of any other jurisdiction outside of the NT. As such, a Member must satisfy themselves of the legality of their Betting or transactions via Us. You accept full and final responsibility of the following actions:

a) application to Rivalry for an Account or its associated services;

b) remitting funds by a Funding Instrument or any other way to an Account; and c) placing Bets and receiving winnings from/with Rivalry

10.3. We reserve Our right to refuse any Bet, or part of a Bet, without prior notice or explanation, and also to restrict, suspend or cancel Your Account if any of the following apply:

a) where You are or may be a Minor or Betting on behalf of a Minor;

b)  where You structure Your Bets (including by placing those Bets as smaller Bets on the same event and for the same outcome in quick succession) in a manner which, in Rivalry’s reasonable opinion, appear to be for the purpose of ensuring that those Bets are accepted by Rivalry in circumstances where they otherwise might be rejected (for commercial and other reasons);  

c)  where You are or may be Betting in breach of these Terms & Conditions (including but not limited to, engaging in Masking or Arbitrage Betting) and any applicable Act or law; 

d)  You access or use the Website utilising any other type of automated, robotic, systematic, artificial, obscured, or computerised method(s). This includes, without limitation, the use of data extraction or scraping; and

e)  where, at the sole discretion of Us, any proposed Bet may present a risk that We consider to be unacceptable.

10.4. When You make a Bet via the Website, the Bet is deemed to be valid only when;

a)  the Bet has been paid in full by You;

b)  the Bet has been accepted by Us; and

c)  the Bet appears as an accepted Bet on Your Account.

10.5.  Irrespective of the appearance of the acceptance of a Bet it must actually be accepted by Us and We reserve the right to reject, void or stop any given Bet without notice. Placed Bets by a Funding Instrument must be paid in full before they are valid and where they are not they are void.

10.6.  You are solely responsible for entering and choosing the particulars of Your Bets. You acknowledge that, in placing Your Bet, You are not relying on any statement of any of Our employees or representatives relating to the subject matter of the Bet. We take no responsibility for Bets made in haste, error, carelessly or otherwise and You indemnify Us for any such error You make in such Betting on Your Account. We are under no obligation to cancel Bets that have been validly placed and accepted in accordance with these Rules.

10.7.  Notwithstanding clause 10.6, We may be able to cancel or change a Bet made in error, or otherwise, at Our sole discretion. In these circumstances, We may void the Bet and request that another Bet be made in its place. A pattern or suspected patter of behaviour of a Member that seeks to alter or avoid Bets by claim of error will be deemed to be inconsistent with these Terms & Conditions. We may take any such lawful action We deem reasonable to address this type of conduct, including limiting, suspending, or cancelling Your Account.

10.8.  We reserve the right to suspend or prohibit further Bets on any event at any time and without prior notice to You at Our sole discretion. Should an event be suspended or access to it prohibited, any attempted Bets placed via the Website that follows the suspension or access prohibition will be rejected.

10.9.  Bets will be accepted up to the announced official start time for any event. Where there is no official start time announced, Bets will be accepted up to the advertised start time of the event. Where there is any confusion between the start and advertised time, We reserve the right to set a reasonable start time on the basis of the information available on the event. Where a Bet is inadvertently accepted after the relevant start time, the Bet will be void.

10.10.  We accept no responsibility or liability for the failure of telecommunication or information technology-based systems not under Our control that prevent or impede the correct placing accepting, recording, confirmation or notification of transactions. We shall not, under any circumstance, be responsible or liable for damages or losses that are deemed or alleged to have resulted from or been caused by the Website, or any of its content, including but not limited to any errors or omissions in content.

10.11.  We do not provide a “cash out” service and will not allow a Member the option to cash their Bet out in the middle of an event, match, competition etc.

10.12.  We reserve Our right to keep a recording of any customer service or related telephone call between Us and a Member. Alternatively, in relation to Our “Chat Support” text service, We reserve Our right to retain and copy the history of transcripts that relate to any communication in text format. Please note that we retain records of all customer support conversations conducted through our AI-powered chat system, which is operated using large language models (LLM). Personal information shared during customer interactions with the AI-powered chatbot, may be disclosed or shared solely for the purpose of improving and refining the chatbot's functionality and enhancing the overall customer experience. Similarly, We may retain e-mail chain or text message history between Us and You. You agree to such recordings, transcripts, or email history being retained and/or copied by Us and at Our sole discretion (Recorded Material). Where a Dispute (as defined in clause 13) arises which remains unresolved between Us and You, You agree to allow Us to rely upon the Recorded Material as evidence and present that Material to an adjudicator. An adjudicator may determine the Dispute in accordance with these Terms & Conditions. All Recorded Materials will be retained by Us consistently with Our privacy obligations as described within Our Privacy Policy.

10.13.  The current minimum Bet is AU$0.50 and the maximum is AU$1,000.00 (Bet Thresholds). We reserve the right to alter the Bet Thresholds at Our sole discretion and without notice to You. We maintain Bet Thresholds to protect Our risk and that of Our Members.

10.14. We reserve Our right to provide any Personal Information, Betting data or information to ESIC and/or an Australian governing sporting authority, or to any other lawful regulator, including but not limited to AUSTRAC and other related law enforcement agencies (collectively, an Authority). You consent to any such information being provided when there is a reasonable and/or lawful basis to do so. An Authority may include bodies that oversee the rules and regulations of a sport and may possess sanctioning powers. Examples include but is not limited to ESIC, Cricket Australia or the National Basketball League. We may provide the following information to an Authority:

a) any record, Recorded Material, or data in Our possession or control that relates to Betting transactions of the Member; and

b) the name, contact details and similar identifying information in Our possession or control relating to that Member.

10.15. Any such information provided to an Authority under clause 10.14 will only be provided to assist a legitimate inquiry conducted by an Authority or where We reasonably believe that Our obligations under any relevant legislation or law requires Us to provide it to the Authority. For example under the AML/CTF Legislation.

10.16. “Odds Boosts” are a discretionary increase in the odds of a bet. The settlement of bets that have Odds Boosts will follow the rules outlined in these Terms and Conditions.

10.17 Odds Boosts are only available on select “Quick Combo”. Odds Boosts will be identified with a “Boosted” tag on a Quick Combo and the increased odds will be displayed and the original odds will be greyed out.

10.18 Once a bet is placed, the increased payout will be reflected directly on the betslip.

10.19 The addition or removal of any leg to a Quick Combo will result in the removal of the Odds Boost from the bet. If any leg of a Boosted Combo is cancelled or voided, the boost amount will be recalculated at revised odds, depending on the remaining valid legs still applied.

10.20 Rivalry reserves the right to cancel/void any bets with Odds Boosts in cases where bets were accepted in error or a violation of these Terms and Conditions and our Betting Rules.

11. Errors

11.1.  We endeavour 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 events. We reserve 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 (Material Error).

11.2.  Where a Bet is voided by way of an error made by Us prior to an event commencing, We will endeavour to contact You by e-mail promptly to inform You that the Bet has been voided.

11.3.  For the purposes of this clause 11, an error in setting a market or accepting a Bet will be a Material Error in the following circumstances:

a) the price struck for a Bet is materially greater than a price previously offered on the same or a similar market by Rivalry or any competing bookmaker;

b) there is an error in the price of at least one selection which forms part of a multi Bet (parlay); the combined effect of which results in a materially erroneous price;

c) the available selection(s) on a market are so different from the selection(s) previously offered on the same or a similar market by Rivalry or any competing bookmaker; or

d) a reasonable 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.

11.4. For the purposes of clause 11.3:

a) a Bet means either a single Bet or a multiple Bet known as a parlay (including same game parlays and Quick Combos); and

b) where the error in a multi Bet is in relation to a price or selection, the multi Bet will be either re-calculated at adjusted (corrected) prices or by excluding the event to which the error relates, but only at Our sole discretion.

11.5.  A Material Error may, depending on the circumstances, mean that We wrongly pay an amount to You or We may pay You more than the amount which You are properly entitled. In this situation, You agree to repay Us immediately upon request from Us the amount which has been wrongly paid or overpaid to You. When making such a request, We will detail the Material error and articulate how We have calculated the sum owing.

12. Responsible Gambling

12.1. Rivalry takes responsible gambling seriously by;

a) facilitating gambling limits on request. Should a Member wish to limit the amount they may Bet on their Account they may do so at the time they establish their Account or any time afterwards. Further, We currently maintain Bet limits of AU$1000 per Bet;

b) providing a self-exclusion option. You may stop Betting for a period of time or permanently if gambling has become an issue for You, or is causing You or others around You harm. You may cease gambling for an elected period through Our Responsible Gambling tab under Your Account which will offer a range of periods (one (1) week to permanently).

12.2. To effect responsible gambling measures listed above at clause 12.1, We may retain such personal information, for as long as required, to effectively implement self-exclusion facilities. The following minimum personal information will be retained to maintain an exclusion facility;

a) Your name;

b) Your address; and

c) Your payment details.

12.3. If You elect to self-exclude;

a) You must not attempt to open a (further) Account to place Bets or engage in conduct that will enable You to make Bets via Our services indirectly or otherwise;

b) You remain fully liable and responsible for Your actions and all Your activity and Bets placed; and

c) subject to these Terms & Conditions, if We are of the opinion that You have, or are deliberately, attempting to circumnavigate imposed restrictions (by way of additional Accounts or otherwise) and have placed Bets while excluded We will;

  1. void open or pending Bets and the original stake will be returned to Your Account;
  2. resulted Bets will stand; and
  3. the balance of Your Account will be returned to You.

12.4. We use all reasonable endeavours to not advertise, market or communicate with Minors or individuals for whom gambling has become a problem.

13.1.  These Terms & Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the applicable law of the NT and each Member irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the NT Courts in respect to any dispute that arises out of or in relation to these Terms & Conditions, or of any service or product offered by Rivalry (Dispute). However, this clause 13.1 does not prevent You or Us from seeking an interim injunction in any court of a competent jurisdiction.

13.2.  We are committed to providing high quality Customer Service, and to dealing with Disputes in a prompt, efficient, and fair manner. We may require additional information from You about Your Dispute. If this applies, We will contact You.

If You have placed any Bets in relation to events which have not yet taken place at the time of closing Your Account such Bets will still stand, and if such Bets subsequently win, the corresponding sums will be paid to You within a reasonable time of the outcome of the Bet becoming known. 

14.2.  We reserve the right to deem an Account that has not been transacted upon for at least eighteen (18) months to be inactive (Inactive Account). We may charge an AU$10 monthly charge on accounts that are inactive.

17.2.  Such action will take place as soon as reasonably practicable following such announcement or declaration.
