What is Arbitrage?
When two sportsbooks disagree enough on a price that you can bet every outcome and make a profit. The gap between their prices is the profit. Bet both sides, sized right, and you win either way.

Arbitrage
Two sportsbooks price the same market differently. Bet both sides at the right stakes and you lock in profit, no matter who wins. Arbitrage finds the gap and shows you the bets.

How it works
Arbitrage, in four questions.
The mechanic
How do I turn arbs into profit?
Place one bet at each book at the same time, with stakes sized so either outcome leaves you ahead by the same amount. The catch is speed. If one book moves the price before you place the second bet, the arb can disappear.
For the full maths, see arbitrage on Learn.

FAQ
Common questions
The bits people usually ask before signing up. Live chat support is on every page if you have questions about limiting or account safety.
Won't my account get limited or banned?
Arbitrage can increase the chance of limits because you are repeatedly taking prices that are out of line. Some books limit faster than others.
Most members manage this by spreading volume across books, not max-staking every arb, and mixing in other types of activity instead of looking like an obvious arbuser.
How big are the edges?
Many arbs are small, often around 1% to 3% of the money deployed. Bigger ones can appear, usually when prices move quickly after news, injuries or promotions.
The profit on one arb may be modest. The value comes from catching enough good opportunities and executing them cleanly.
How much money do I need to start?
You can start small, but arbitrage scales with stake size. The same 3% arb is worth $1.50 on a $50 stake and $15 on a $500 stake.
The more books you have funded, the easier it is to act quickly when an arb appears. You already have money in the right places, so you are not waiting around while the price gap closes.
The Profit Tracker makes it easier to manage balances, open bets and locked-in profit across all your sportsbooks.
