MegaPari’s Right to Modify Terms

MegaPari reserves the right to amend, update, or replace any part of these terms at any time. Users are responsible for reviewing the terms regularly. Continued use of the platform following any modification constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. Where required by applicable legal standards, users will be notified of significant changes.

Principles of Proper Platform Use

All users are expected to interact with the platform in good faith. The following conduct is prohibited:

• Using automated software, bots, or scripts to access or interact with the platform;
• Attempting to manipulate odds, outcomes, or bonus systems;
• Sharing account credentials with third parties;
• Engaging in any activity that disrupts the normal operation of the platform;
• Using the platform for any purpose other than lawful personal entertainment.

Content Protection

All content available on the MegaPari platform, including but not limited to odds data, graphics, software, and text, is protected under applicable intellectual property laws. Users may not reproduce, distribute, or commercially exploit any part of the platform’s content without prior written authorisation from the operator.

Liability Limitations

MegaPari’s liability to users is limited to the extent permitted by applicable law. The operator is not responsible for:

• Losses arising from technical failures beyond its reasonable control;
• Losses caused by the user’s failure to comply with these terms;
• Inaccuracies in third-party data used in the provision of services;
• Interruptions in service caused by scheduled or emergency maintenance.

Users accept that all betting activity involves risk and that participation is voluntary.

The following rules apply to all bets placed through the MegaPari platform by users in Ethiopia. These rules are intended to ensure fair play, transparency, and the integrity of all wagering activity.

Eligibility for Placing Bets

To place a bet on MegaPari, a user must:

• Have a fully registered and verified account;
• Have sufficient funds in the account balance;
• Be of legal gambling age as required under Ethiopian regulations;
• Not be subject to any active account restriction or suspension.

Bet Acceptance Procedures

All bets are subject to acceptance by the platform. MegaPari reserves the right to decline or limit any bet without providing a reason. A bet is considered accepted only when the platform confirms it and assigns a unique transaction reference. Bets placed during technical errors or system failures may be voided at the operator's discretion.

Minimum and Maximum Bet Amounts

Betting limits apply across all event types and markets on the platform. These limits vary depending on the sport, event, market type, and account status. Specific minimum and maximum bet amounts are displayed within the bet placement interface at the time of wagering. MegaPari reserves the right to adjust these limits at any time.

Calculation of Wins and Losses

Winnings are calculated by multiplying the accepted stake by the odds displayed at the time the bet was confirmed. In the case of accumulator or combination bets, the total odds are calculated as the product of all individual selection odds. In the event of a cancellation or void selection within an accumulator, the affected selection is treated with odds of 1.00. Final settlement is based on official results from recognised governing bodies for each respective sport or event.

Betting Restrictions

MegaPari may impose restrictions on specific accounts, markets, or events, including:

• Reduced maximum stake limits for accounts identified as high-risk;
• Temporary suspension of betting on specific events pending official results;
• Geographic restrictions on certain markets in compliance with regulatory requirements.

Bet Cancellation Policy

Once a bet has been accepted and confirmed, it cannot be cancelled by the user. Cancellations are only initiated by MegaPari in the following circumstances:

• The event is cancelled or postponed beyond the allowed rescheduling window;
• A clear technical or pricing error occurred at the time of bet placement;
• The bet was placed in violation of these terms and conditions.

In all cases of valid cancellation, the original stake is returned to the user's account balance.

All financial transactions on the MegaPari platform are governed by the rules set out in this section. Users are required to read and comply with these payment terms to ensure the uninterrupted processing of deposits and withdrawals.
