How Do Rescue Refunds Work?
Updated over 2 weeks ago

If your entry lost because one of your picks went down early with an injury, we have your back! With Boom’s Rescue Refund, any entry that lost because of a Rescue pick will be refunded 2x the initial entry fee in bonus funds.

Which entry types fall under the policy?

Regular Pick’em, Pick’em Coverage entries, and Pick & Spin entries are eligible for a Rescue Refund.

If a Coverage entry received a payout, it does not qualify for a refund.

For example, a 4 pick Coverage entry whose 1 incorrect pick was a Rescue will not be refunded and will be played for the remaining multiplier on the entry.

Squad Ride entries are not eligible for a Rescue refund.
