A new era for live betting on SmartStake

We've rebuilt the live betting experience, from the sportsbook connections behind the odds to the board in front of you. More WebSockets. Less waiting. A steadier, smoother SmartStake.

Here's what's new:

• A major expansion of WebSocket-powered sportsbook feeds. Fresher odds from more of the books you follow.
• Streaming updates straight to your live board. The old refresh wait is gone.
• Bets that stay in view. Less flickering, fewer disappearing lines, and no losing your place while reviewing a bet.
• A cleaner, more responsive app. Redesigned bet details and smoother interactions on mobile and desktop.

Live betting, rebuilt from the source

A faster board starts with faster data. We've greatly increased the number of sportsbook scrapers using WebSockets, receiving price changes as they happen across more of our feeds.

And we've brought that same streaming connection to the live board itself.

Previously, an odds update could wait up to 2 seconds before reaching your board. That extra refresh wait is gone.

It's a substantial upgrade behind the scenes, built around one thing: helping you follow the market as it moves.

Explore live betting on SmartStake. Prices can still move or markets suspend at the sportsbook, so confirm the price before placing a bet.

Keep your eyes on the bet

The market can move without your whole screen moving with it. On live Positive EV and Arbitrage boards:

• Pinned stays pinned. Keep the bet you're watching in view.
• Open stays open. Review a bet without the detail view closing underneath you.
• Prices keep updating. Follow the live market, with an indication when the opportunity no longer qualifies.
• Comparisons stay steady. Sportsbook columns hold their place when a price disappears.

Less chasing cards. More room to compare the prices in front of you.

A fresh look, on every screen

Cleaner cards. Clearer prices. Bet details with room to breathe.

• On desktop and tablet: review a bet alongside the board and keep the wider market in view.
• On mobile: focus on the bet, then get straight back to browsing.
• Across both: smoother animations, transitions, and scrolling make moving through SmartStake feel more natural.

Your display and pinning preferences still work across the tools.

Smoother beyond live betting

This upgrade reaches across the app. Our before-and-after benchmarks show:

A couple of standouts:

• Fantasy: 15% less CPU time while exploring fantasy lines.
• Performance: 40% less blocking time when reviewing your results.

Measured in our benchmark runs. Your experience will vary by device and activity.
