your betting. If a member of staff has made a statement to you that is not covered by or is
at variance with any provision of Rules you should inform Customer Services immediately
before you commence betting with us. We warn you that the law favours written terms
and it is therefore important that you bring any such statements to our attention before
you commence your betting with us.
Member Obligations
• Members are responsible for ensuring that their Account details such as their address,
telephone number, email address and payment/bank details (including any Credit card
expiration details) are kept up to date and to notify us immediately of any incorrect Account
1details. In the event that a Member has not kept their Account details up to date, we reserve
the right to suspend the Account. Members are responsible for complying with their own
local, national or state laws concerning betting prior to either applying to become a Member
or placing a bet on their Account. In particular, if you are a resident of a country where
online or telephone betting is prohibited, you must not register with us, attempt to use our
services or use your payment card or other payment method to bet with us. For legal or
commercial reasons, we do not permit Accounts to be opened by, or used from, customers
who reside in certain jurisdictions, The list of Restricted Jurisdictions may be changed by us
from time to time and you will be deemed to be aware of and accept any changes to this list.
You agree that you shall not open an Account, nor attempt to use your Account, if you are
within a Restricted Jurisdiction.
• We periodically monitor transactions on Accounts. You accept that if we detect activity
which indicates to us that you are or may be within a Restricted Jurisdiction and are or may
be betting on your Account, we may, in our discretion, either suspend or permanently close
your Account. You accept that the data available to monitor betting on an Account is not
always accurate and BoomBet will use its discretion in accepting any bets on your Account
while conducting any investigation.
• In the event that Sportsbettinc.com.au discovers that an Account has been opened by
someone who resides in a Restricted Jurisdiction, BoomBet may in its discretion close the
Account and request proof of payment method, personal identification and bank account
information prior to permitting a withdrawal of the original funds. Winnings may be
forfeited if the Account holder opens the Account contrary to these Rules.
• A Member must immediately notify BoomBet of any matter (including any potential mental
impairment) which may lead us to reasonably infer that your ability to make sound
judgments about betting in respect of your Account may be impaired.
Identification Requirements
• BoomBet is required to identify each person who opens an account. If your identification
is not received within 14 days of opening your account, the account will be suspended
until identification is received. All bets pending at the time of suspension will stand.
• If an account is suspended following non-receipt of the required identification, any funds
remaining in the account will be frozen.
• In most cases we will attempt to verify your identification automatically using the
information provided during your account application. This data will be checked against
external registers such as electoral rolls. Where we are unable to verify your account
automatically, you may be required to provide us additional information and/or
documentation.
• The requirements to verify your account may vary from time to time depending on
multiple factors including our own internal policies, changes to government and licencing
legislation and other external factors. Click here to see the current identification
requirements.
• If a Prepaid/Virtual/Electronic/Travel/Debit/Credit card is to be used by a Member to fund
the Account, legible copies of the front of the applicable card may be requested by SBCA
for its approval. SBCA reserves the right at its discretion to refuse to accept a Credit card
including but not limited to in circumstances where the Credit card is dishonoured. Credit
cards used to fund a Member’s Account must match the Member’s Account details. Credit
cards with a name other than that which is registered with SBCA for the Account in
question will be refused and the Account may be suspended until proof of consent is
provided by the third-party cardholder. SBCA reserves the right to request a copy of the
2front of the card registered on the Account at any time. Receipt of a card is no guarantee
of Account activation/re-activation.
• Should a Member deliberately falsify any ID or any other details for any purpose
associated with applying for an Account or transacting on the Account, BoomBet
reserves the right to suspend the Account and/or close the Account without prior
notification to the Member.
• All certified documents must be produced in the English language or they will be
rejected. BoomBet reserves the right to carry out checks on the individual certifying
documents and to get in touch with them to verify the validity of the document.
BoomBet may in its discretion reject certified documents for any reason.
Account Security
• A Member is responsible for ensuring that their user name and security details (including
any personal identification number (‘PIN’), password or Account number) (‘Secure Member
Details’) are kept confidential. If a Member suspects that their Secure Member Details may
no longer be confidential or that there may have been unauthorised use of their Account,
they must notify BoomBet immediately, and BoomBet may provide the Member with new
Secure Member Details. Where BoomBet provides the Member with new Secure Member
Details, BoomBet reserves the right to invalidate any future transactions which attempt to
utilise the previous Secure Member Details of that Member.
• Where a Member wishes for another individual to have access to their Account or any
Secure Member Details (including any family member, business or corporate entity or any
other person whatsoever), this must first be approved by BoomBet and details for that
person provided. BoomBet may refuse such request for access at its discretion. A Member
remains solely responsible for their Account including but not limited to transactions, bets
and Account changes made by any authorized individual. BoomBet reserves the right to
request full certified identification documentation from any proposed nominee.
• Members will be responsible for all bets on their Account in which their Secure Member
Details are used. Members should check the balance of their Account each time they log on
to their Account or at the time they place their bet. In the event of a query, it is the
Member’s responsibility to notify BoomBet immediately.
Fraud

third party, BoomBet reserves the right to close a betting account or place restrictions on
the account which may limit the products available to it.

circumvent any of these betting rules at the sole discretion of BoomBet.
• These Rules shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the
Northern Territory and each Client irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the

the Laws of the Northern Territory for that purpose.
