An arbitrage bet (or surebet) covers every outcome of a market across two bookmakers whose combined prices leave a gap. Enter both odds and your total stake above and the calculator splits the stake so you win the same amount no matter which side lands.

How to use it

  1. Enter the best available decimal odds for outcome A at one bookmaker.
  2. Enter the best available decimal odds for outcome B at a second bookmaker.
  3. Enter the total amount you want to stake.
  4. Read the stake to place on each side, plus the arbitrage percentage and guaranteed return.
Worked example. Bookmaker A prices outcome A at 2.10, Bookmaker B prices outcome B at 2.10. With $100 total you stake roughly $50 on each side. Whichever wins returns about $105, a locked profit of around $5 (a 5% arb) regardless of the result.

Arbs are rare and short-lived because bookmakers move their prices quickly. A tool that scans the market continuously finds them for you, which is what the DegenToPro arbitrage finder does across 100+ Australian bookmakers.

Frequently asked questions

Is arbitrage betting legal in Australia?

Yes. Placing bets at licensed Australian bookmakers is legal, and covering both sides of a market across two books is not against the law. Individual bookmakers may limit accounts they identify as arbers.

Is an arbitrage bet really guaranteed?

The return is locked once both legs are placed at the shown odds. The practical risks are execution: a price moving before you get the second leg on, a bet being voided, or a stake limit. Place the shorter-lived leg first.

What arbitrage percentage is worth taking?

Most sustainable arbs sit in the 1% to 5% range. Higher figures usually mean a palpable error or a price about to be pulled, so double check before staking.
