In-Play Betting at 7bet: Live Markets Across Sports

At 7bet, users can place live bets across football, tennis, cricket and other sports as the action unfolds. Learn more about our in-play betting, a format that lets you respond to live matches in real time with updated odds and expanded market options.

Whether you're on a mobile device during half-time or browsing from a desktop, the experience is built to be smooth, accessible, and secure. Odds adjust throughout the match or event, and key moments such as goals, penalties or momentum shifts are reflected instantly.

Our in-play feature supports both casual users and those with a deeper understanding of match dynamics. With clear layouts and a regulated platform, 7bet aims to make live betting a simple extension of traditional pre-match options.

What Is In-Play Betting?

In-play betting (also referred to as live betting or betting in running) allows you to place wagers after a match or event has started. Markets stay open while the game is underway, and the odds update constantly based on what’s happening on the field, court or track.

You might be watching a football match and see a tactical change that could affect the next goal. With in-play betting, you're not limited to pre-match assumptions. You can react based on real-time events.

Here’s how it works:

  • Select your sport and event
  • Browse live betting odds as the action unfolds
  • Place bets on current or upcoming outcomes
  • Track your live bets via your account area


Everything happens directly through your browser. There’s no app to install, and the interface is designed to work consistently across platforms.

Tennis In-Play Betting

Tennis lends itself well to live betting because momentum can shift with every point. At 7bet, tennis in-play markets are available across ATP, WTA, and ITF tournaments including Grand Slams, Challenger events and select doubles matches.

Live tennis markets include:

  • Set winner
  • Game winner
  • Point-by-point betting

FAQ

Do live odds change quickly?

Yes, live betting odds can change rapidly, often within seconds. That’s because they’re updated in real time to reflect what’s happening in the event - like a goal scored, a red card or a shift in momentum. These odds are adjusted automatically, so you don’t need to refresh the page. It’s important to be aware that the odds you see can move between the time you select a bet and when it’s confirmed. If they do change, you’ll be notified before the bet is placed.

Can I cash out during a live event?

Yes, many live betting markets offer cash out options. This allows you to settle your bet early, either to lock in a profit or cut your losses depending on how the event is going. You may be offered a full or partial cash out depending on the market, your stake, and current odds. If cash out is available, you’ll see it clearly on your active bet slip. Please note that cash out availability can change throughout the event and is not guaranteed on every market.

Is there a delay between action and bet placement?

Yes, a brief delay may apply when placing live bets. This delay is usually just a few seconds and allows the system to verify that the event data is accurate and current. It also ensures fair play by preventing bets from being placed after a key moment (like a goal or foul) has already occurred. You’ll usually see a countdown or loading indicator during this time. Once verified, your bet will be either accepted or rejected based on the current odds and market conditions.
