Bet Protect+ is a new optional feature that will either give customers refunds for straight bets or remove parlay legs if a player leaves the game at any point due to injury. Key Takeaways Users must apply Bet Protect+ to wagers before they are submitted. Bet Protect+ costs 3% of a user’s stake per wager.
Affected bets will be refunded or have an affected leg removed from a parlay. Bet Protect was first introduced to FanDuel Sportsbook users in September, ahead of the new NFL season. The NBA playoffs began this past weekend and customers can now enjoy full-game injury protection on the hardwood.
All customers have the option to trigger Bet Protect+ before placing their favorite wagers. Anyone who wants to add it will pay an additional flat 3% fee to the total stake of the selected wager. Full-game player prop bets placed before a playoff game begins will be eligible for Bet Protect+, as indicated by a toggle box in users’ bet slips.
