Summary of Services provided

Totus is an authorised Agent for a selection of third party Bookmakers and Betting Exchanges (“Bookmakers”)

As an Agent, we are authorised by our partner Bookmakers to establish betting accounts so that our customers can place bets with our partner Bookmakers

Totus also provides a peer-to-peer matching platform (the ‘Exchange’) upon which customers can place bets with each other. Where customer bets are placed with each other on the Exchange, Totus acts as a facilitator and not as a counterparty.

We receive funds deposited by our customers and make those funds available for betting purposes with Bookmakers. Funds held by Totus on behalf of our customers are held on a segregated Client Account and are protected by Isle of Man gambling law

We make available to our customers a record of all betting and funding transactions and settle with Bookmakers each week on behalf of our customers

In these Terms when we refer to the "Services" we mean all the services listed above. Terms specific to Exchange bets are set out explicitly in the Exchange Terms & Conditions (the ‘Exchange Terms’).
