What is a multi-match Bet Builder? Paddy’s guide on how to create the ultimate punt from different games

So you’ve mastered the art of the Bet Builder, right? You know, the one where you select different markets such as Player Fouls, Shots on Target and Over/ Under Goals for a single game.

Thinking it’s time for something a bit more exotic?

Well, then it’s time to get acquainted with the mighty Multi-Match Bet Builder.

It works pretty much the same as a normal Bet Builder, except this time you can make your picks from across different matches or sports to make one bet.

There’s only one stipulation to remember – you’ll need two selections from at least one of the events to ensure you’re placing a Bet Builder and not just a boring old acca.

So, if you fancy Over 2.5 Goals in Manchester United’s next match, Erling Haaland to Score Anytime, Kevin de Bruyne to Have 1+ Shots on Target,  Alexis Mac Allister to be Booked and Chelsea to Lose then you can add them all to your betslip online and in the app.

Not all markets are currently usable in a Bet Builder and anything that’s preventing your punt from functioning will show up in red in the bet slip, as shown below.

For example, if you’ve got two bets from the same game that clash, like Under 0.5 Goals and Team X to win, this will flag up in the bet slip and show you where you’re going wrong.

How to construct your Multi-Match Bet Builder

1: Bet Builder is available on top-grade competitions, for the most popular match sports offered. The Bet Builder tab will be available within the event page.

2: A selection of available bets will appear where you can see our Bet Builder offers. Choose your bets by clicking on the ‘Odds’ buttons.

3: When you have made your selections, you need to go to your betslip. ‘Betslip’ can be found at the bottom of your screen on mobile, or right-hand side on desktop.

4: In your ‘Betslip’, towards the bottom, you will find a box to input your bet stake.

5: When you have inputted your stake, you are ready to confirm your bet. Click the ‘Place Bets’ button.

But wait, if you’ve bagged a free bet that you want to use you much tick the box in the betslip and enter the amount your want to bet. If you don’t tick the free bet box the bet amount will be taken from your balance.

If your bet is not possible to compute, you will have a red error message in your betslip. Eg. Under 0.5 goals and a team to win cannot be combined as they cannot both happen in the same game.

If you’ve selected only one leg from each match or event it will show up as an acca in your betslip, if you’ve got at least two legs from the same event it will show as a Bet Builder.

And hey presto, you’ve got yourself a Multi-Match Bet Builder, baby!

See, it’s as easy as 1, 2, 3… 4, 5! Why not give it a try and bet on any game you like your way.
