Your playing wallet is also experiencing the same issues, I won one bet and a push on the Romania vs Switzerland match (which ended at least 15 minutes ago) and the status of the bet has been "settlement in Progress" since then. I wanted to use that BTC to place some bets on the upcoming France vs Albania match Sad.

By the way, why do not you keep the transaction within your own wallets, outchain (OK, I have no idea if I understand it properly, what I mean is not actually moving the funds but updating the balances artificially or something, like I think/have heard Coinbase does).

We pay very high fees for withdrawals made from our Playing Wallet, but the Bitcoin network is currently overloaded and you may have to wait a few blocks. Please PM me your bet ID if you have not received your payout by now.

Thanks for your suggestion, this is something we may add in the future.

Hello, 48 hours ago I placed some bets, In the past I always used low transaction fees, like 0.00001 BTC for a 2$ btc transaction, it always got confirmed in some hours and payout were fast, but with the latest bet I did I've been stuck by the big block of new transactions that actually are spending a really higher fees, as of now I can see on blockchain that there is approximately 30k unconfirmed transactions and the number is rising, I have some bets placed that are waiting confirmations from more than two days, and payout is on hold.
How system works in those scenarios? It waits for confirmations also if it takes longer?

If your bet status is "Settlement in Progress" it usually means that we are waiting for your initial bet transfer to have 1 confirmation in the network, before issuing the payout. This is required to ensure that we actually received your initial wager.

Usually, it takes a few seconds or minutes for your initial bet transfer to have 1 confirmation, so by the time your bet wins, it should get paid without delay.

However, the Bitcoin network is currently overloaded. If you send your bet transfer with low fees, it may take hours or even days to confirm.

Your bet will be paid out automatically as soon as your initial bet transfer is confirmed by the Bitcoin network.

I don't understand what kind of correlations can happen, other sportsbooks offer this but I don't want to play for them. That's interesting. I could make good parlays though.

I understand it as follows: Consider you place a draw-no bet on Mexico in tonight's match against Venezuela (or a home or draw), and you parlay it with Mexico to finish 1st in the group. If the first happens, the second event happens too (since Mexico is already on top of the group, and if they either win or draw against Venezuela they will still top the group).

I suppose that is an "unfair" way of increasing the odds in some bets, and I suppose DirectBet wants to prevent users from arbitraging bets (which would be more likely if such kind of parlays were possible).

No, you misunderstand the situation. Of course same team/type bet is not allowed in anywhere.
Example of future parlay:
Top 2 Finish - England @ 1.21
Group Winner - Germany @ 1.39
Top 2 Finish - Croatia @ 1.75
Dual Forecast - Belgium/Italy @ 2.04
There's no correlation here. Other sportsbooks allow this parlay, Directbet don't. That was the problem.

You are correct, there is no correlation in your example but unfortunately our system is not programmed to tell which future bets correlate and which not and therefore all future bets are currently excluded from parlays.

Settlement in progress for more than 2 days

Thanks for betting at DirectBet.

We were unable to pay out your bet because the payout address that you provided was invalid.

Apparently you entered an invalid character at the end of the address.

I was able to fix that for you and the payout was issued.

Please be sure to correct it before placing your next bet, as the last used address is automatically filled.

I hope this helps, feel free to contact us if we can be of any further assistance.

They have only over/under 2.5 and match odds I need some more options in this market as many other sites offering already
Go to the link on my previous post, and search the page for "Over/Under 2.5 Goals"
Just above and below that you will find all the other options for over/under lines.

@Directbet I want please add over/under with result as its missing from your site many other already giving this option hope you will add in Euro 2016 matches as its also very good thanks

Directbet already has those lines on their site, and they also have the Euro 2016 matches gambling.

Here is the link to the matches part of the Euro 2016 https://www.directbet.eu/Events.cshtml?EventType=Soccer&Competition=EURO%202016
@ajaxmoor I just check this first time on this site they need some more options but still its ok thanks for information and link

Honestly I find the selections they offer as compared to other sites are more than enough. For example, if you look at the lines and betting options for the Turkey vs Croatia game, then they literally have all the selections you can possibly make, and similarly for other games in the Euro cup.

Please check again, all possible Over / Under options are available.

The "Match Odds and Over/Under 2.5 Goals" is a special parlay of the Match Odds bet and Over / Under 2.5, but if you scroll up you will see single bets of Over / Under selections from 0.5 to 6.5.
