  • Virgin Bet pays out goalscorer bets if a goal is disallowed by VAR in EPL or World Cup matches.
  • Offer applies to pre-match singles, multiples, and Bet Builders on specific goalscorer markets.
  • In-play, cashed-out, or void bets are excluded; South African residents aged 18+ only.

VirginBet are paying out bets in major leagues if a goal is ruled out by VAR - meaning a disallowed goal doesn't mean your bet loses.

Place a pre-match bet on a player to score in any English Premier League or World Cup match at VirginBet, and if VAR later rules the goal out they still pay you out as a winner.

The VAR Payout promotion means that if the player you backed scores and VAR later disallows the goal, they still treat your selection as a winner and pay you out in full.

New South African players can still claim the 100% first deposit match up to R3,000. Sign up, enter the Virgin Bet promo code BETS, deposit between R10 and R3,000 within 30 days of registration and earn your bonus.

VAR Payout Information

You need to place a pre-match single, multiple or Bet Builder on one of the qualifying markets before kick-off of an English Premier League or World Cup match. The markets covered are:

  • First Goalscorer
  • Anytime Goalscorer
  • Player to score at least 2, 3 or 4 goals
  • To Score or Assist (only the goal part counts for the payout)

If that player scores and the goal is subsequently ruled out by VAR at any point during the match, Virgin Bet pays the selection as a winner regardless of the final decision. 

On multiples and Bet Builders, the protected selection is simply marked as won, and the rest of the bet continues to run.

In-play bets are not included. Cancelled or cashed-out bets also fall outside the offer. If your selection is void for any other reason, the promotion does not apply.

Terms & Conditions

You must be 18 or older, a registered Virgin Bet member, and physically in South Africa when you place the bet. Anyone with responsible gambling restrictions or self-exclusion on their account is excluded.

When you qualify, the cash payout is credited to your account within 12 hours of the fixture settling. In some cases, it can take up to 24 hours. No extra steps are required - the system handles it automatically.
