matched betting review

As the method of profiting from matched betting has become more popular, there are several paid matched betting services springing up to support the community.

Many come and go, some are a scam and most are a waste of time and money.

However, there are a couple that do deliver on the modest subscription costs and have proven to be a big help to many in avoiding mistakes and missing out on new offers. It's only these sites that we'll review and compare here, having subscribed to them all.

You must be over 18 to join these services and benefit from matched betting.

Benefits of paid matched betting services

Ultimately, you only want to be paying for a premium service if it increases your profit from matched betting or saves a lot of time.

The sites below will do both, so if you're serious about making the most money it can be worth subscribing to one. They tend to come with a free trial so you can get a feel for the service they each provide before paying anything.

Generally speaking, the main benefits of paying for a matched betting service are:

  • Live odds matches (maximises potential profit)
  • Latest reload offers (which you may otherwise miss)
  • Automated calculations (saves time)
  • Personalised tracking
  • Detailed guides, tutorials and videos
  • Private forums and community
  • 1-on-1 support

Outplayed review

Outplayed is a comprehensive matched betting website packed with easy-to-understand instructions for each offer listed.

Until recently, one downside was you needed several windows open to use their odds matcher separately to the written and video guidance. However, they now have a new extension for Chrome users that makes this a lot easier.

Which matched betting site is best?

As we've seen in the reviews both win in different areas (such as forum vs software) and offer slightly varied matched betting services.

When it comes to Outplayed vs OddsMonkey it's becoming a more level playing field. For overall value in terms of software, level of customer support and also the 0% exchange commission offers, OddsMonkey just pips the post. If it's a highly active and larger community you value more then Outplayed is still a good option.

There's no harm in trying each of them to see which one you like best, especially if you can get a free trial.

If you're just starting out with matched betting, make sure you understand the concept itself first as most of these sites are a step up from the basics.

We have started a matched betting Facebook Group too.
