Stake.com Sports Betting Insurance Explained

Stake Shield protects players' multi-bets against losing selections.

When placing a multi, simply activate Stake Shield and select the number of legs you want covered.

In return, the platform offers a fixed payout that reflects the level of protection selected.

Even if some legs of your multi-bets lose, your bet can still settle as a winner provided the remaining selections meet the protection conditions.

Stake Shield is available on selected markets across the sportsbook, including football, basketball, cricket and tennis betting.

Sports Betting and Live Betting Restrictions

The sports betting insurance feature is available on standard sportsbook markets, but some selections cannot be included in protected bets.

For example, live betting markets are not eligible for Stake Shield protection.

Same Game multi-bets, racing markets, player props and outright bets are also excluded from the feature.

Cashout is not available on Stake Shield bets, and the chosen protection level must produce odds greater than 1.01.
