Virtual Sports
What are Masterplay Virtual Sports?
Masterplay Virtual Sports are instant-action, computer-generated events that mirror real-world games. Each fixture uses a robust random-number generator to determine the outcome, so results are fair and unpredictable. Because these events run continuously, you can place bets any time, day or night. Matches are short and dynamic, usually lasting just a couple of minutes from start to finish, with smooth animations that keep the pace high.
How to bet on virtual sports
Ready to play? Here is a straightforward flow you can follow.
- Select a virtual sport from the Masterplay lobby, such as virtual football, basketball, horse racing, greyhounds, or tennis.
- Choose a specific fixture or race and review the markets available for that event (for example win/draw, correct score, total goals, top scorer, or margin).
- Enter your stake and confirm the bet. In most cases bets settle instantly after the event ends, and your winnings are added to your balance automatically.
- Optionally use cash out if the feature is offered, so you can lock in a profit or cut losses as the event unfolds.
