Terms of Use
Last updated
1. Eligibility
This website is intended for adults aged 18 or over, and for a higher minimum age where local law requires one. Do not use this site if you are below the legal gambling age where you live.
2. Your legal position is yours
Online gambling is regulated differently in every jurisdiction. It is permitted under licence in some, restricted in others, and prohibited outright in others again — including mainland China. Nothing on this site is an assertion that online betting is lawful for you, and nothing on it is legal advice.
You are responsible for knowing and complying with the law that applies to you. If you are unsure, obtain independent legal advice before opening any account.
3. What CTBAPI provides
CTBAPI is an account-opening and support service. CTBAPI is not a bookmaker: it does not set odds, accept or settle bets, hold a bookmaker's licence, or operate a casino. Bets are placed on third-party platforms, and each platform's own terms and conditions govern the bets placed on it, including settlement, voiding and dispute rules.
CTBAPI is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting as an agent of Pinnacle, CITIbet, or any other platform referred to on this site. Trademarks and platform names are the property of their respective owners and are used descriptively.
4. Information on this site
The guides and FAQ are general explanations provided for information only. They are not betting advice, financial advice, tax advice, or legal advice, and they are not a recommendation to place any particular bet.
We aim to keep this material accurate and current, but platform features, fees, availability and law all change. Information here may become out of date without notice, and you should confirm anything important with us or with the platform directly before acting on it.
5. No guaranteed outcomes
Gambling involves risk and you can lose money. No system, service, strategy or platform can guarantee a profit, and CTBAPI makes no representation that you will win or recover your stakes. Never bet money you cannot afford to lose. See our responsible gambling page.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to use this website to:
- break any law that applies to you;
- impersonate CTBAPI or misrepresent your association with it — note that we never contact customers first to request a transfer;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its systems, or other users' information;
- interfere with the site's operation, including by automated scraping that degrades service for others.
7. Third-party links
This site links to third-party services, including messaging platforms and betting operators. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content, availability, terms, or privacy practices. Your use of them is governed by their terms, not ours.
8. Communications and data
If you submit the get started form, the details you provide are sent to our team so we can contact you about opening an account. We use third-party analytics and live-chat tools on this site, which collect usage data under their own privacy policies.
9. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the service or the law changes. The current version is always the one published on this page, with the last-updated date shown above. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
10. Contact
Questions about these terms can be sent to us on Telegram or through the channels on our contact page.
