Bet types at Uzu: how the return to your balance is calculated
Before choosing a match, it is worth choosing the right bet type, because it decides how much is paid, what happens if a selection loses or is voided, and in what form the win reaches your balance. This guide covers the most common types with simple examples. The types available at Uzu and their exact rules are in its betting rules.
Single
One selection. If it wins, you get stake times odds; if it loses, you lose the stake. It is the easiest to follow and the least surprising at settlement. Example: 10 at odds of 2.00 returns 20 (10 profit plus the stake).
Accumulator (parlay)
Several selections in one bet; odds multiply and every selection must win. The potential payout grows fast, and so does the chance of losing. If a selection is voided (for example, a postponed match), it is usually removed and the odds recalculated on the rest.
| Selections | Example odds | Combined odds |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 1.80 and 2.00 | 3.60 |
| 3 | 1.80, 2.00 and 1.50 | 5.40 |

System bets
A system combines selections into several smaller accumulators. A "2 from 3" system, for instance, creates three doubles. It costs more than a single accumulator because each line is a separate stake, but you can get something back even if one selection fails. Know how many lines a system creates before confirming the total stake.
Free bets
A free bet, common in sports promotions, usually pays only the winnings, not the stake: a free 10 at 2.00 pays 10, not 20. That win may also arrive as bonus money with wagering. Read the promotion conditions first; bonus terms explains what to look for.
Partial and full cash out
Some platforms let you close a bet early, in full or in part. The amount returns to your playing balance, not to your bank; you still need to request a withdrawal to move it out. Remember that the cash-out amount includes a margin for the platform.
From bet type to withdrawal
What lands in your balance from a settled real-money bet is withdrawable; what comes from free bets or bonuses may not be yet. If you place large accumulators that could pay big, check per-bet payout limits and per-period withdrawal limits in the terms. The payout process is in withdrawals.
