Or. Admin. R. 177-092-0025 - Purchasing a Share and Placing a Bet
(1) An eligible player purchases shares in
Scoreboard and places a bet on a sporting event through their player account on
the mobile app or site.
(2) The
odds and prize amount or "winnings" associated with each bet are determined by
the Lottery and must be digitally displayed to the player before the bet is
confirmed.
(3) The Lottery only
accepts bets placed digitally.
(4)
A bet may only be placed when the player is physically located within the
geographic boundary of the state of Oregon and not on tribal lands.
(a) The Lottery must be able to verify the
physical location of the player when the bet is placed. Players must consent to
the Lottery's use of geolocation technologies as described in OAR
177-046-0022.
(b) The Lottery will
use official, publicly available data sources to geolocate tribal lands and
prohibit mobile gaming therein. For purposes of this rule, "tribal lands" means
federal Indian reservations, lands held in trust by the federal government for
the benefit of federally recognized tribes, and lands held in fee by federally
recognized tribes.
(5)
The bet amount may not exceed the player balance; under no circumstances will
the Lottery extend credit to a player.
(6) The Lottery may, in its sole discretion,
from time to time, offer bonuses, free bets, or similar promotional incentives.
These appear in the player balance and may be used to place bets but have no
cash value and are not eligible for withdrawal. (The prize from a winning bet
placed using bonus funds or free bets is eligible for withdrawal subject to
applicable rules about prizes and prize payment.) Each bonus or promotional
offer is subject to terms and conditions or limitations that will be disclosed
to players on the mobile app or site such as, but not limited to, the
requirement to use the full amount of the bonus in a single transaction or
forfeit the unused portion. Players must comply with any additional terms and
conditions or requirements to be eligible to use bonuses, free bets, and
similar promotional incentives.
(7)
Bets may only be placed on sporting events associated with a recognized
governing body. The Lottery determines available bets at any given time at the
Lottery's sole discretion. Available bets are displayed to players on the
mobile app or site. The Lottery may refuse a bet at any time for any
reason.
(8) Placing duplicative or
identical bets is prohibited.
(9)
Once confirmed, a bet cannot be cancelled or changed by the player. It is the
sole responsibility of the player to verify the accuracy of the bet prior to
confirmation. The Lottery is not responsible for any bet placed in
error.
(10) Some bets may, from
time to time, display an option to settle a confirmed bet early for a certain
percentage of the original bet. This feature is known as "Cash Out" or "Bet
Back" and is available only at the Lottery's sole discretion on some bets at
some times.
(11) Disputes regarding
player eligibility, the amount of a bet, the time a bet was placed, odds on a
particular bet, whether a bet is a winning bet, and the amount of any prize are
resolved at the sole discretion of the director of the Oregon State Lottery or
the director's designee.
