A qualification bet is a wager on whether a team or player will advance to the next stage of a tournament, regardless of the match result method.

It includes progression via extra time or penalties.

How it works

• Bet settles based on who qualifies, not who wins in regular time

• Extra time and penalty shootouts count

• Common in knockout tournaments

Example

• Bet: Team A to qualify

• Match result after 90 minutes: Draw

• Team A wins on penalties
  → Bet wins

Key characteristics

• Lower risk than match winner bets

• Lower odds due to broader conditions

• Popular in football cup competitions

Important note
Qualification bets ignore the 90-minute result, which can confuse bettors unfamiliar with settlement rules.
