When it comes to sports betting, there are several ways to display odds. The most common formats are American, Decimal, and Fractional odds. Here’s a simple breakdown to help you get started!

American Odds

American Odds show how much you can win based on a $100 wager. They appear as whole numbers with either a minus (–) or plus (+) symbol in front.

• Positive Odds: A positive number (e.g., +300) tells you how much you’ll win on a $100 bet.
  • Example: +300 means a $100 bet returns $300 in profit (plus your $100 stake for $400 total).
• Negative Odds: A negative number (e.g., –180) tells you how much you need to bet to win $100.
  • Example: –180 means you’d need to wager $180 to win $100 ($280 total return).

Quick note: $100 isn’t the minimum bet—our minimum wager is just $1!

Decimal Odds

Decimal Odds are popular in Europe and show your total return for every $1 wagered (stake included).

• Example: Odds of 3.75 mean a $10 bet would return $37.50 in total ($10 × 3.75).
• To calculate your payout: Multiply your stake by the decimal odds.

Fractional Odds

Fractional Odds are common in the UK and Ireland. These display your profit relative to your stake and are written as a fraction (e.g., 5/1 or 7/2).

• The first number is your profit, the second is the stake required.
• Example: 5/1 with a $10 bet = $50 profit + $10 stake = $60 total return.
• Example: 7/2 with a $10 bet = $35 profit + $10 stake = $45 total return.
• Quick formula: Total Return = Stake × (Numerator ÷ Denominator) + Stake
