This only applies to non-UK registered customer bets (API and non-API) because these customers are betting with Betfair International in Malta. Based on our testing, we expect the interaction between the UK and Malta to take an average of c.120 milliseconds. This breaks down as follows:

Your bet request from your location to Betfair in the UK: timing dependent on your location

1. Your bet request from the UK to Betfair International in Malta: approx. 30 milliseconds
2. Bet request from Betfair International in Malta to the UK: approx. 30 milliseconds
3. Bet response (matched, unmatched, partially matched) from the UK to Betfair International in Malta: approx. 30 milliseconds
4. Your bet response from Betfair International to the UK: approx. 30 milliseconds
5. Your bet response from the UK to your location: timing dependent on your location


This routing only applies to the following API calls: placeBet, updateBet, cancelBet.

Should Betfair experience a problem with the link to Malta, or in Malta itself resulting in an interrupted service for non-UK registered customers, Betfair will cancel all non-UK customer unmatched bets on volatile* markets.
