Stake Shield Flexi Bet multi protection settlement
Stake Shield (Help: Flexi Bet) protects a multi so a chosen number of legs can lose while the bet still pays — at a fixed, reduced payout shown at placement. The payout is tied to the protection level, not which legs failed.
If every leg wins, you still receive that fixed Shield payout. A voided leg recalculates odds (below 1.01 voids the whole bet). If voids arrive before the win threshold, recalc waits until the bet is a winner; if enough legs already won, later voids keep the original Shield odds. Dead heat or split-win legs adjust the Shield payout.
Not allowed inside Shield: live selections, Same Game Multis, racing, player props, outrights, and some market lines. Cashout is not available on Shield bets. Protection-level odds must exceed 1.01. Help covers UX; this page mirrors sportsbook policy HTML.
These rules are Stake’s published sportsbook policy (HTML read 2026-09-14), not universal sports law. Other books on this site have their own terms — check that book’s policy; /go fail-closes on each brand’s geo deny. Crypto funding does not rewrite settlement.

How we read terms
Primary source first. For each book we encode a deny list from that book’s own terms, AML page, or restricted-jurisdiction article. Secondary “reviews” are not the list.
How we earn
If you open a sportsbook account through /go, the book may pay us a commission. That is the only money path on this site.
Play within limits
You must be 18 or the legal age where you are, whichever is higher. Betting can be addictive. If it stops being a game, stop.
We may earn a commission if you open an account through our links. It does not change the facts on the page.
