# Platform Limits

Configure betting limits that apply across your entire sportsbook. Define thresholds for single, multiple, and system bets across both PreMatch and InPlay categories.

***

## Access

Navigate to **DEFEND** → **Risk Controls** → **Platform Limits** in the platform sidebar.

***

## Overview

Platform Limits provide a structured framework of rules applied to different bet types:

* **Single bets** — Individual wagers on a single outcome
* **Multiple bets** — Parlays/accumulators combining multiple selections
* **System bets** — Combinations of multiple bets with various permutations

Limits can be configured by:

* Bet amount (stake)
* Potential risk
* Maximum winnings
* Bet repeatability
* Time range

* **Time range logic:** Define the date range and specific time frame for when the limit is active. For example, if the date range is 19/1 to 25/1 with a time frame of 23:00 to 8:00, the limit will be applied during those hours on each day within that range.
