A parlay combines multiple legs into a single trade, and every leg has to win for the parlay to pay out. Here's how grading works when one or more legs don't land cleanly.
All legs win
Your parlay wins and pays out based on the combined odds across all legs.
Any leg pushes
If any leg in a parlay pushes, the entire parlay pushes and your original stake is returned. This holds true no matter how the other legs settle, even if every other leg in the parlay lost. A single push is enough to push the whole parlay.
Example: Say you place a five leg parlay, and one of the legs is a player prop. Four legs lose, but the player tied to the prop leg doesn't start the game, so that leg pushes. Because one leg pushed, the entire parlay pushes and your stake is returned, even though four of the five legs lost.
Note: In our system, voids and pushes are treated the same way and the outcome is identical (stake returned), so you may sometimes see a leg described as voided rather than pushed. Either term means the same thing for how the parlay settles.
Any leg loses (and no leg pushes)
If no leg pushes, a single losing leg is enough to lose the entire parlay, regardless of how the other legs settle.
Frequently Asked Questions
If one leg pushes, do the other legs still matter?
No. A push on any single leg pushes the whole parlay and your stake is returned, no matter what happens with the remaining legs, including if they all lose.
What's the difference between a push and a void?
Nothing in practice. Both mean your stake is returned, and on Novig they're treated interchangeably. You'll most often see this referred to as a push.
Where can I see how each leg in my parlay graded?
Check the Portfolio section of the app. Each leg shows its individual settlement result alongside the overall parlay outcome.
