Acca Insurance

Acca insurance, as the name suggests, is any kind of promotion from a bookmaker which provides insurance on accumulator betting. The majority of these promotions work by returning your initial stake to you, not including any winnings, with a typical qualifying example being if your accumulator loses by a single leg.

Qualification Criteria
While there is a fair bit of variation in the specific terms and conditions, the core idea of acca insurance generally remains consistent across various bookmakers. Possible variables include the amount of legs you can lose by and still receive a refund on your stake. However, this is fairly rare: a limit of one remains the overwhelming majority. More common variables include the minimum amount of legs you need to bet on in order to qualify, with three being typical, and which markets qualify.

Types of Refund
Another important distinction is in what form you receive the refund from your qualifying stake. Usually, this comes in the form of free bets or bonuses, but it can also be given in cash, depending on the specific bonus and bookmaker. Regardless, it is rare to see an example of acca insurance which doesn’t offer terrific value to bettors.
