Minimum bets on Betfair

[christine]

Hi all, It was always my understanding from several sources that although some bots can place stakes below £2, BF do not approve of this & will take action against those users doing so on a regular basis. There seems to be no mention of this with Betting Assistant & I just wondered whether I'd got it wrong? Does anyone know for sure what BF's policy is regarding this? Thanks!

You'd have to ask Betfair for a definitive answer but it's one of those things they let go by as long as people aren't abusing the ability to place sub £2 bets.

Most of us have placed sub £2' bets when closing trades and never had any problem with Betfair but I'd imagine anyone placing sub £2 bets as their initial bets or part of their strategy are likely to get pulled up at some time or other.

Like most things on Betfair reports will be generated to show how many sub £2 bets a user is placing, if they value your custom because you're paying them enough commission they'll let it pass.

That makes sense, thanks!
