Push notifications
How to enable real-time push notifications on your browser or in the iOS and Android apps and manage which devices receive alerts.
Receiving alerts in real time
When one of your alerts fires, SmartStake can push a notification directly to your device rather than waiting for you to check the app. Notifications are opt-in and per-device, so you control exactly where they land.
Web push notifications
On any supported browser — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and most Chromium-based browsers — you can enable push notifications from the Push Notifications card on your profile page. Click Enable, then grant permission when the browser asks. Once enabled, SmartStake's service worker keeps a background subscription active and delivers alerts even when the tab is not open.
If you previously denied permission in the browser, the card will show a blocked state. To re-enable, reset notification permissions for SmartStake in your browser settings and then return to the profile page.
iOS push notifications
On iPhone and iPad, push notifications are delivered through the native iOS notification system rather than the browser. To receive them, you need the SmartStake iOS app installed. Once inside the app, open your profile and tap Enable in the Push Notifications card. iOS will prompt you for permission. If you later block notifications, you can re-enable them under Settings > SmartStake > Notifications on your device.
Android push notifications
On Android, push notifications are delivered through the native Android notification system rather than the browser. To receive them, you need the SmartStake Android app installed. Once inside the app, open your profile and tap Enable in the Push Notifications card. Android will prompt you for permission. If you later block notifications, you can re-enable them under Settings > Apps > SmartStake > Notifications on your device.
Each alert type arrives on its own Android notification channel (Arbitrage alerts, Positive EV alerts, Lineup alerts, Fantasy alerts and Announcements), so you can mute or change the sound of one type under Settings > Apps > SmartStake > Notifications without affecting the others.
Besides your own alerts, every device with push enabled gets one notification when we publish a product update, the same post that appears under What's new in the Notification Center. It arrives on the Announcements channel on Android.
If you are visiting SmartStake on mobile without the app installed, the Push Notifications card will show a prompt to install it, with links to the App Store (iOS) and Google Play (Android).
Per-device subscription
Each browser tab or app install is treated as a separate device. Enabling push on your laptop does not automatically enable it on your phone, and vice versa. You can register up to five devices on a single account. If you reach the limit, remove a device from the profile page before adding a new one.
Opening an alert
Tapping a notification opens the tool it came from with the alert's filter applied. A Fantasy Alert also selects its bookmaker and slip, replacing whichever book and slip you last had open. Tapping a product update notification opens the update post.
Managing registered devices
The Push Notifications card lists all devices currently subscribed under Other devices, showing the device label and the date it was added. You can remove any device with the delete button next to it. Removing a device immediately stops push delivery to that browser or app install.
Where to find these settings
The Push Notifications card lives on your profile page (/app/profile). Alerts themselves are set up in each tool's alert menu: the bell beside the settings button on Positive EV and the Arbitrage Finder, and the bell on the Fantasy board. Each alert menu can also turn on push for the device you are using. See Saved filters and alerts for how to create and manage them. If you are on mobile and have not yet installed the app, see Installing the app.
