Consistency Guideline
Potentially hitting a profit target in a short span, could be luck. A day later, one could be unlucky. We want players to learn the ability to manage risk, stick to a betting plan, demonstrate their strategy and measure of consistency. Betting conditions change. You do not need to bet every day. Be wise, selective and patient. Betting Stage® accounts with monthly subscription fees connected to them remain active until you cancel.
I hit my goal early, how should I bet my remaining days?
Sports Bet Funding has made our case for needing to see you demonstrate your skill and bet on 20 individual days. However, we understand the wisdom of risk management if you have reached the required target. It’s acceptable to lower your bet size. This allows you to continue to take your normal bets which demonstrates your usual betting plan and strategy on the remaining days.
Players are permitted to purchase and operate more than one Betting Stage® account at the same time, as long as they are all associated with the same email address. Likewise, players are permitted to operate more than one Player Funded Account™ simultaneously. Multiple Player Funded Account™ will not be combined into one larger account and each require their own small monthly fee of $85 per month or one-time fee of $250 regardless of the size of the account.
WARNING *If a player is discovered to have registered more than one membership and operate more than one email address, that account is subject to termination.
SBF has set a defined limit of three (3) Player Funded Account™ that can be operated concurrently.
