Cash Out allows you to lock in a profit or loss before waiting for the event to finish. Betfair does the maths on your current bets to offer you a value in real time based on the live market prices….. and even better news for football bettors - Cash Out will no longer be suspended on match odds markets on the Sportsbook!

Example:
Say you place a £10 (€10) bet on the double of Norwich (6/4 or 2.5) and Liverpool (1/2 or 1.5). Norwich win, and the Liverpool game is about to kick off. The Cash Out offer shown is £24 (€24). Click Cash Out and you guarantee yourself a profit, even if Liverpool lose. The £24 (€24) is returned to your account immediately, without you having to wait for the Liverpool game to end.

Why is cash out suspended?

Cash out should always be available to you on all Betfair Sportsbook football match odds markets, but unfortunately, you may see cash out temporarily suspend due to the following reasons:

1. Your cash out value is less than the Free Bet stake you’ve used, cash out will be available again if the value increases.

2. The market you’ve bet on does not have cash out available (eg. football handicap markets)

3. The market does not go in-play (eg. Odds Boosts, #OddsOnThat markets)

4. If you’re betting on football, when the player you’ve backed is on the bench, the market and cash out will suspend until he/she is active on the pitch.

5. The market is suspended temporarily due to match incidents and market suspension. eg: when prices are changing after a goal, VAR, break point, try etc.
If the bet features multiple in-play games, the risk of suspension increases, and more patience may be required.

6. The third-party provider who covers the sporting event has unfortunately not been able to continue coverage, as originally agreed. Pricing and cash out have been lost as a result.
