6. Bonus and Promotions Policy

At Betsson Mexico, bonuses are incentives designed to improve the user’s recreational experience. However, their use is subject to strict rules to prevent promotional abuse and ensure fairness.

Wagering Requirements (Rollover)

Any bonus awarded by Betsson Mexico is subject to a “Rollover.” This means that the user must bet a certain number of times the value of the bonus before being able to withdraw winnings derived from it. For example, a $1,000 MXN bonus with a x30 rollover requires total bets of $30,000 MXN.

  • Game Contribution: Not all games contribute equally to the rollover. Slot machines usually contribute 100%, while table games such as Blackjack or Roulette may contribute 10% or less.
  • Validity: Bonuses have an expiration date. If the requirements are not met within the established period (usually between 7 and 30 days), the bonus and accumulated winnings will be removed.

Bonus Abuse

Betsson Mexico reserves the right to cancel bonuses and confiscate winnings if irregular betting patterns are detected, such as:

  • Placing low-risk bets (for example, betting on red and black simultaneously in Roulette).
  • Using multiple accounts to claim the same promotion.
  • Delaying game rounds in slots to complete them after the bonus has expired.

7. Intellectual Property and Software Use

All content available on the Betsson Mexico site, including design, software, graphics, source code, and trademarks, is the property of Betsson or its licensing providers (such as NetEnt, Pragmatic Play, or Playtech).

  • User License: A personal, non-exclusive, and non-transferable license is granted to the user to use the software solely for personal entertainment purposes.
  • Restrictions: It is strictly prohibited to attempt to reverse engineer, copy, distribute, or create derivative works from our software. Any attempt at technical intrusion will be reported to the National Guard Cyber Police in Mexico.

8. Inactive Accounts and Cancellation

An account is considered “Inactive” if it has not recorded any login or transaction for a continuous period of 12 months.

  • Maintenance Fee: Betsson Mexico may apply a monthly administrative fee for inactive account maintenance, provided there is a positive balance. The user will be notified 30 days before the first charge is made.
  • Account Closure by the User: You may close your account at any time by contacting our technical support. The remaining balance, once withdrawal costs and unconverted bonuses are deducted, will be transferred to your registered bank account.

Betsson Mexico reserves the right to modify these Terms and Conditions at any time to reflect changes in Mexican law or our business operations.

  • Notification: Significant changes will be notified to the user through a notice on the website or by email.
  • Acceptance: Continued use of the platform after a modification implies tacit acceptance of the new terms. If you do not agree with the changes, you must cease using the account and withdraw your funds.

11. Dispute Resolution and Jurisdiction

At Betsson Mexico, we seek to resolve any disagreement in an amicable and efficient manner. However, for those cases where a direct agreement is not reached, the following protocol is established:

Internal Complaint Process

The user must submit any formal complaint in writing to our customer service department within no more than 30 calendar days after the incident. Betsson Mexico undertakes to issue a resolution within a maximum of 15 business days.

Competent Authorities

If the internal resolution is not satisfactory, the user has the right to appeal to the following instances in Mexico:

  • SEGOB (General Directorate of Games and Sweepstakes): As the regulatory body, it is the ultimate authority to resolve disputes regarding the operation of games.
  • PROFECO (Federal Consumer Attorney’s Office): To protect the user’s rights as a consumer of digital services.

Applicable Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed and interpreted exclusively under the federal laws of the United Mexican States. For any legal action, both parties waive any other jurisdiction that may correspond to them by reason of their present or future domicile, submitting to the jurisdiction of the competent courts in Mexico City.

12. Specific Rules for Sports Betting

Given the popularity of sports events in Mexico (Liga MX, NFL, MLB, among others), the following operating rules are established:

  1. Official Results: Bets are settled based on the official result published by the sports governing body immediately after the event has ended. Subsequent changes (due to administrative decisions or doping) will not alter the settlement of the bet unless otherwise specified.
  2. Postponed or Canceled Events: If an event does not take place on the scheduled date and is not rescheduled within the following 48 hours, bets will be considered void and the amount wagered will be returned in full to the user’s balance.
  3. Winning Limits: Betsson Mexico reserves the right to establish maximum winning limits per bet or per client, depending on the market and the type of sports event.

13. Game Integrity and Fraud Prevention

Betsson uses state-of-the-art technology to ensure that all results are random. We do not tolerate the use of external devices, prediction algorithms, or the exploitation of software errors.

  • Collusion: Coordinated play between two or more users to manipulate the outcome of a table or market is prohibited.
  • Arbitrage Betting: The use of techniques to guarantee profits by covering all possible outcomes between different platforms is prohibited and will result in account closure.
