How long do I have to collect a winning Hollywoodbets ticket before it is forfeited?

Short Answer: You have 90 days to collect a winning Hollywoodbets ticket from the date of the event on which it was placed. If the winning bet is not collected within this 90-day period, it may be forfeited to Hollywoodbets.

This rule applies to all winning tickets that have not been cashed out or deposited into your account.

1. The 90-Day Rule Explained

The countdown starts on the date of the event you bet on, not the date you placed the bet. For example, if you placed a bet on a match that took place on 1 November, you have until 30 January to collect your winnings. Hollywoodbets will honor valid winning tickets within this timeframe, but once the 90 days pass, the right to claim the winnings is lost.

2. How to Claim Your Winnings Before Expiry

To avoid forfeiture, ensure you collect your winnings promptly. For cash bets at a branch, you can present your ticket for payment, though cash payments are limited to R10,000. For larger amounts, the balance is paid via electronic transfer. If you are an online customer, winnings are automatically credited to your Hollywoodbets account, so this 90-day collection rule primarily affects physical ticket holders.
