Live: keep display time and acceptance time separate

Updated:

The live score, the price you see and the request accepted by a provider can have different timestamps. Network delay and rapid events make a screen appear current even when the underlying transaction has not completed. Do not treat a changing price as a receipt. An account entry showing accepted status, amount and price is the record to inspect. If the market moves too quickly to read comfortably, stepping away is an option.

Learn the account setting

Some interfaces accept a revised price automatically, while others require a new confirmation. A setting may distinguish a more favourable price from any change. Read the active choice before using live markets. On a small screen, a changed number and a new button can appear in quick succession. The final confirmation should match the amount and market you intended. A screenshot of an earlier stage cannot prove the value accepted later.

Preserve the event details

If the result or status is unclear, record the event, market, requested amount, time, reference and last confirmed state. The distinction between “submitted” and “accepted” matters. A connection error should prompt a history check before a second submission. Repeating a request may create a duplicate entry. The provider's support team can inspect its own log if you give a precise reference.

Market suspension

Around a significant play, a market may close temporarily. A game can also be paused or abandoned. The provider's rules should explain what happens to a request not yet accepted and to one already accepted. These need not be the same. A separate score feed can update at another moment; it is not proof of the provider's acceptance time. Ask for the clause used in any disputed settlement.

Set a pace you can maintain

Choose a finish time and maximum spend before the live page starts demanding attention. Review all accepted amounts during breaks. A loss should not determine the size of the next request. Koitos.net cannot access or correct a private live transaction.
