Saving a bet on FanDuel Sportsbook, often referred to as “cashing out,” allows you to settle your bet before the event you’re betting on has concluded. This feature is not available for all bets or all users, as it depends on the specific terms and conditions of the sportsbook and the bet itself. Here’s a general guide on how to cash out a bet on FanDuel Sportsbook:
1. **Log In**: Make sure you are logged into your FanDuel Sportsbook account.
2. **Navigate to Active Bets**: Look for a section on the app or website that shows your current or active bets. This is often found in the ‘My Bets’ or ‘Active Bets’ section.
3. **Find the Cash Out Option**: Within your list of active bets, find the bet you want to cash out. If the cash out option is available for that bet, there should be a ‘Cash Out’ button or link next to it.
4. **Review the Offer**: Before confirming the cash out, FanDuel will show you the amount you will receive if you proceed with the cash out. This amount is typically less than the potential payout if you were to let the bet ride to completion, as the sportsbook takes a fee or vigorish for the service.
5. **Confirm Cash Out**: If you agree to the cash out offer, click the ‘Cash Out’ button to confirm. The funds will then be immediately credited to your account.
Please note the following:
– **Eligibility**: Not all bets are eligible for cash out. The feature is usually available for single-game bets and some parlays, but not all types of bets (like futures, props, or live betting markets).
– **Timing**: The cash out option is typically only available until the start of the event or sometimes during live betting, but not after the event has concluded.
– **Terms and Conditions**: Always check the terms and conditions of the cash out feature, as there may be specific rules or limits that apply.
– **Market Changes**: The cash out value can change based on the live odds and the progress of the event if it’s an in-play bet.
Remember that cashing out is a strategic decision that should be made considering the potential payout of your bet and the current situation of the event you’re betting on. It’s a way to guarantee some return on your investment, but it also means you’re forgoing the chance to win the full amount you might have won if the bet had been allowed to play out to its conclusion.
