Different parts of the world have different terminologies for parlays. Depending on the sportsbook or the region, they may also be called “accumulators” or “multis.”
​

Whatever the name is, the concept is fairly simple. A parlay bet simply combines multiple wagers into one bet. It does this by rolling over the winnings from each individual wager into the next leg of the wager. Each “leg” or individual bet in the parlay must win for the parlay to grade as a winner.
