How to Place Ice Hockey Bets at MelBet

Placing an ice hockey bet takes less than two minutes. The platform groups all ice hockey matches under the “Hockey” category. You select your market, enter your stake, and confirm. The bet slip updates in real time, showing your potential return before you place the bet.

Follow these steps to place your first ice hockey bet:

Log in to your MelBet account and open the Sportsbook section.

Select “Hockey” from the left-hand menu or search for a specific league or match.

Choose your match and click on the odds for your preferred market (e.g., match winner, total goals, handicap).

Enter your stake in the bet slip that appears on the right side of the screen.

Review the potential payout and click “Place Bet” to confirm.

The bet slip locks your odds at the moment you confirm. You can track your active bets in the “My Bets” section. All winning bets settle automatically after the match ends, and funds appear in your balance within minutes.

FAQ

Can I watch live ice hockey matches while betting at MelBet?

You can stream selected ice hockey matches directly on the platform. The live stream icon appears next to eligible matches on the event page. You must have a funded account or a bet placed on the match to access the stream. The stream runs in a small window next to your bet slip, so you can adjust bets as the game unfolds.

What is the minimum and maximum stake for ice hockey bets?

The minimum stake starts at 100 INR for most markets. Maximum stakes vary by league and market type. NHL match winner bets accept stakes up to 500,000 INR, while niche markets like “first team to score” have lower limits around 50,000 INR. The bet slip shows your maximum allowed stake before you confirm.

How quickly do ice hockey bets settle after the match?

Pre-match bets settle within 10 minutes after the final whistle. Live bets settle within five minutes. If a match goes to overtime or a shootout, the settlement includes those results unless you bet on “regular time” markets. You can view all pending and settled bets in the “My Bets” section of your account.

Does MelBet offer player prop bets for ice hockey?

Player props are available for NHL matches and selected KHL games. You can bet on individual player points, shots on goal, saves (for goalkeepers), and time on ice. These markets appear under the “Player Specials” tab on the match page. Availability depends on the match profile and bookmaker risk assessment.
