Sporting Index are frequently referred to in the media as the best sports spread betting company available.

In August 2004, Inside Edge (The Gambling Magazine) conducted a Bookmakers Special Report. They said 'Sporting Index describe themselves with some justification as the world leaders in spread betting and they are certainly the premier cheeky chappies of the medium'.

In September 2004, egaming conducted a review of the top 50 most powerful online gaming companies in the world. Sporting Index were the only spread betting company to be included within the top 50.

In October 2004, Inside Edge reviewed all sports spread betting websites and voted Sporting Index as their pick of the bunch, stating that "you'll struggle to find a better place to do your trading".

In January 2005, readers of the Net Prophet feature in the Racing Post voted Sportingindex.com the best sports spread betting website: "IGSport.com finished a distant third, behind Cantorsport.co.uk, with Sportingindex.com a cosy winner".

We continue to strive to offer the best product and service available. We are known as the best because:

• - we offer more markets, more specials and more choice than any other spread betting company.
• - we are the only company to offer continuous 24 hour betting.
• - we provide mobile betting on the widest range of handsets.
• - our Customer Services desk is the only one to be open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
• - we offer the biggest free bets in the industry.

We are proud of our reputation and will continue to work hard to provide excellent service to our clients.

Sporting Index offer their clients the opportunity to open either a credit or deposit account. A credit account allows you to bet against an agreed credit limit, whilst a deposit account requires pre-deposited funds in the account. Once you have decided which facility suits your betting needs best, you are then required to choose between a Stop Loss and a No Stop Loss account:

1. No Stop Loss Account
If you open an account without a Stop Loss facility you will be able to place larger bets with greater potential winnings (and losses). More experienced spread bettors tend to choose this type of account.

2. Stop Loss Account
A Stop Loss Account offers you all the thrills of an ordinary spread bet with the added security of limiting risk. A Stop Loss Account offers you the chance to spread bet with a safety net:

• - Every bet placed through a Stop Loss Account is subject to a maximum stop loss. This means you will know the most you can win or lose every time you place a bet.
• - Small minimum stakes allow you to enjoy spread betting without the risk.
• - For sheer convenience, Stop Loss Account holders can arrange for their accounts to be card-managed, meaning balances can be settled automatically on a fortnightly basis through your debit account.

It is important to us that you are happy using Sporting Index and find the service easy to use. Our dedicated team of Customer Services staff prides itself on its friendliness, efficiency and speed in dealing with any enquiries you have. If you have queries on how to spread bet, the terminology used, free bets available or queries on your account, please do not hesitate to call the Customer Services Team.

There is no need to be worried about trading online with Sporting Index. Our website has been designed by online experts with security of paramount importance. Our secure server software encrypts all of your personal information (ie your name, address and card number) so that it cannot be read as it travels over the internet.

Spread betting can be very rewarding and produce large returns on small stakes. Basically the more you're right, the more you win. However, the opposite may also be true. The more you're wrong, the more you potentially lose. The profit or loss is determined by the difference between the final result and the level at which the bet was originally made, multiplied by the stake that you nominated. In some volatile markets, such as cricket runs, your profit or loss can escalate very rapidly.

With our Stop Loss/Win account you can benefit from a cap on the amount that can be lost. It is important that you familiarise yourself with the stop loss rules as they can limit your winnings, limit the size of bet if it was to expose you to excessive risk, or in some instances cause a bet to be refused.

Sporting Index is regulated by the Financial Services Authority who are the single statutory regulator responsible for regulating deposit taking, insurance and investment business. The Financial Services Authority is the British equivalent of the American CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission) and SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) rolled into one.

Financial Services Authority regulators inspect spread betting firms on a regular basis to ensure that each firm conforms to the strict rules of the Authority. These include the setting aside of funds as a guarantee against a company suffering big financial losses, as well as a host of stringent regulations to protect the client. Any money deposited with these Financial Services Authority-regulated companies is segregated under the Authority's regulation to ensure complete security. Winnings are also guaranteed under Financial Services Authority regulation.

The Max CGSL is the Maximum Computer Generated Stop Level. This is the maximum figure used to automatically allocate a stop loss on newly opened positions. The trading system will assign a stop level based on 80% of the CGSL if there are sufficient funds on the account. For instance, if you have £2000 in your account and you trade the Daily FTSE at £10 per point, the system will automatically allocate a stop-loss of 100 points (because the Max CGSL for the Daily FTSE is 125 and 80% of 125 is 100) and you would also have £750 remaining as available funds on your account. Alternatively, if there are insufficient funds to cover the Max CGSL, the system will allocate the stop level based upon 80% of the available funds (see following details). The Max CGSL varies depending on the product.

The Min IMR is the Minimum Initial Margin Requirement. You can calculate the minimum level of funds required to open a new position by multiplying the Min IMR by your stake. For example, the current Min IMR for the FTSE 100 Index Future is 30. Therefore, if you wished to bet £5/point, you would need a minimum of £150 available funds on your account (30 x 5 = 150). The Min IMR varies depending on the product.

Capital Spreads automatically creates a stop-loss for every bet opened. This stop-loss is based EITHER on 80% of the CGSL OR on 80% of the available funds on you account. You may amend your stop-loss to whatever level you desire, assuming you have the funds available and that your required stop is outside the minimum stop distance allowable for that market. Although this stop-loss does go some way towards limiting your risk on your open bets you must be aware that your stop-loss is not guaranteed. This means that should a market gap, you may lose more money than your initial deposit (see clause 10 in the terms and conditions).
