How substitute betting works
PowerSub market examples
Anytime goalscorer
You back a forward to score. If he is substituted before scoring and the direct replacement scores later, a qualifying PowerSub/Super Sub-style market can still settle as a winner.
Assist or goal plus assist
Some operators include assist or score-or-assist markets. Data provider rules matter here, so check whether assists are settled by Opta or another official feed.
Shots and shots on target
Shot markets are often where substitution protection has practical value. If the starter leaves early, the replacement may continue the same shot-count route.
Cards and fouls
Several Super Sub-style terms include bookings, fouls committed or fouls won. The exact list differs by operator, competition and market icon.
Eligible markets: what Sub On Play On covers
Sub On Play On typically applies to: anytime goalscorer, first goalscorer, player shots on target, player assists and player yellow cards — but only on markets showing the feature label. Singles, multiples and bet builders may have different rules; in-play bets and extra time are usually excluded.
The substitution protection means: if your selected player is substituted before completing the market outcome, the bet can transfer to the direct replacement on eligible markets. If the market does not show the Sub On Play On icon, normal settlement rules apply.
Substitution insurance, protection or guarantee — different names for the same thing
When comparing operators, ignore the brand name and focus on three things: does the exact market show the protection icon on the betslip, which competitions are covered, and what are the current terms for singles vs bet builders vs in-play bets.

FAQ
What is the difference between substitution protection and substitution insurance?
They describe the same type of feature. 'Substitution protection' is used by Hard Rock Bet and most industry descriptions. SBK calls Fresh Legs 'insurance (substitution protection)'. The mechanics are identical: if a player is subbed off, the bet can continue with the replacement on qualifying markets.
Does bet transferred to substitute mean the same as Sub On Play On?
Yes — 'bet transferred to substitute' is the plain-language description of what Sub On Play On, Sustituto+, Safe Sub and all equivalent features do. The bet is transferred to the direct replacement if the original player is substituted on a qualifying market.
