VAR Payout Justice: LiveScore Bet’s Scorer Offer Gives Irish Punters the Last Laugh

VAR Payout Justice: LiveScore Bet’s Scorer Offer Gives Irish Punters the Last Laugh

 

 

In a world where football’s finest moments are routinely ruined by a man in a cupboard drawing squiggly lines on a screen, one bookmaker is stepping up to restore a little balance, a dash of sanity, and dare we say, a touch of justice. LiveScore Bet Ireland has unveiled its VAR Payout feature—a subtle, deliciously satisfying antidote to VAR-induced heartache for punters across the Emerald Isle.

Whether you’re a Sunday accumulator addict, a Bet Builder connoisseur, or someone who simply enjoys backing your favourite striker to find the net, this is an offer designed to soften the cruel, cold slap of a goal ruled out by VAR. And unlike most things associated with technology in football, it actually benefits you.

 

What Is VAR Payout? – Reclaiming Sanity, One Bet at a Time

Here’s the deal, and it’s a good one. Place a pre-match bet—whether it’s a single, a multi, or part of a Bet Builder—on a player to score in any English Premier League match, and if that player does score but has the goal cruelly chalked off by VAR, LiveScore Bet will still pay out your selection as a winner. In full. In cash.

Let’s say you’ve backed Mohamed Salah to bag the opener against Chelsea. He slams one in on the half-hour mark, you leap off the sofa, only for VAR to rule he was offside by a toenail. Normally, your bet’s gone, your tea’s cold, and you’ve scared the dog. But with VAR Payout, LiveScore Bet will still settle your wager as a win—whether the goal stands or not.

 

Which Markets Are Covered?

Not all goalscorer markets are equal, and this promotion targets the cream of the crop. If your bet is placed on any of the following markets, you’re covered under the VAR Payout:

  • First Goalscorer
  • Anytime Goalscorer
  • Player to Score 2, 3 or 4 Goals
  • To Score or Assist (though, for this offer, only goals count—VAR doesn’t help you with assists, we’re afraid)

So whether you’re banking on a rapid brace from Haaland or backing a cheeky long shot for the opener, VAR won’t ruin your bet—at least not here.

 

How to Claim – As Simple as a Tap-In

Claiming VAR Payout is easier than a Sterling sitter from six yards. Here’s how it works:

  1. Place a pre-match bet (single, multi, or Bet Builder) on any of the qualifying markets listed above.
  2. Sit back, watch the game, and hope your player does the business.
  3. If your chosen player scores but the goal is later disallowed by VAR, you’ll still be paid out as though it stood.

And yes, you can even include multiple selections across different matches. In multi and Bet Builder bets, only the impacted goalscorer selection is paid out as a winner, with your remaining selections continuing as normal.

A gentle reminder: in-play bets do not qualify—so if you wait until your striker is through on goal, you’ve missed the boat.

 

Who Can Take Part?

This promotion is exclusively for LiveScore Bet members located in the Republic of Ireland. You must be 18 or over and have a fully registered account. If you’re currently subject to any responsible gambling or account restrictions (e.g., deposit limits or time outs), you unfortunately won’t be able to participate.

All qualifying bets must be placed before kick-off, and if you’re one of life’s premature cash-outers, cashed-out or cancelled bets won’t qualify either.

 

When Does It All Kick Off?

The VAR Payout offer begins on 11th August 2025 and runs until further notice—so there’s no need to sprint just yet, but you’d be wise not to dawdle. And with every weekend offering a fresh lineup of VAR-related controversy, there’s no shortage of opportunity.

Winning bets will be settled in cash, not as free bets or funny money, usually within 12 hours of the match finishing, though it could take up to 24 hours during busy periods (looking at you, Saturday 3pm kick-offs).

 

Small Print That’s Worth Knowing

As with all things in life, there are terms and conditions, but they’re reasonably straightforward:

  • Voided selections won’t be eligible.
  • If you’re self-excluded or become so during the promotional period, you won’t be able to take part.
  • If you’ve opted into this offer and fall foul of any serious breach (fraud, account misuse, etc.), LiveScore Bet reserves the right to void your bonuses and winnings, or even close your account. Don’t be that person.

And remember, only goalscorers are covered—if you back a player to assist and that gets ruled out, VAR won’t save you there. But for goal-hunters, you’re in the clear.

Final Whistle – VAR Isn’t Going Anywhere, But Neither Is Justice

Let’s face it—VAR is here to stay, whether we like it or not. It’s the necessary evil of the modern game. But that doesn’t mean your bets need to suffer every time an armpit crosses an imaginary line.

With LiveScore Bet Ireland’s VAR Payout, Irish punters get a rare bit of justice in an otherwise chaotic footballing landscape. It’s smart, it’s fair, and for once, it’s a VAR decision you might actually cheer for.

So next time your chosen striker rifles one into the top bin, only to be denied by some bloke drawing lines on a grainy replay, fear not—LiveScore Bet has your back.

Now, if only they could do something about that bloke who always hits the post in your acca.
