The Rescue promotion is not available for all customers. If the Rescue promotion has not been made available to you, then the affected selection will be voided, and the remainder of the entry will be graded accordingly.
What are Rescues?
If a player plays in the first half of a game but does not return in the second half for any reason (such as injury or ejection), your entry may qualify for a refund through our Rescue policy. In that case, you'll also receive a Gimme Pick, which will appear in your lobby the following day. This policy only applies if you selected the Higher option on that player’s selection.
Promo Eligibility
The Rescue promotion is not available for all customers. If the Rescue promotion has not been made available to you, then the affected selection will be voided, and the remainder of the entry will be graded accordingly. The voiding of a selection may affect the payout structure of the entry. No additional promo will be issued to you if your account is not eligible for the Rescue promotion.
Entry Eligibility
Entries must be valid to be refunded. Rescue refunds will not go into effect if any other selection(s) in your Standard entry are graded as a loss (assuming it is a valid entry). All entries impacted this way will be refunded, but only one special will be available per uniquely impacted player.
Rescues also apply for entries that use Flex. For example, if you have a Pick-5 entry where three selections are graded as a win, one selection is graded as a loss and the final selection doesn't return in the 2nd half (for any reason) of their game - your entry will be refunded.
Projections that are rescued for Streaks will automatically be refunded, and the Streak will be settled.
Partial game picks will not be eligible for Rescue.
