Oddsmatcher

An oddsmatcher is the engine at the heart of every matched-betting tool. It takes back prices from many bookmakers, lay prices from the exchanges, pairs them per selection, and rates each by how close the back and lay are. The closer they are, the smaller the qualifying loss.

Building one is the hard part of a matched-betting product. An oddsmatcher-ready feed supplies the matched, rated rows directly, so the tool is the interface and accounts, not the matching engine.
