Accent, surface, text and radius are the only overridable tokens — a bounded set that keeps widgets readable and on-brand.

Embed it

The code below matches the preview exactly — theme it above, then copy.

index.html
<div data-or-widget="ev"
     data-or-theme="dark"></div>
<script src="https://oddsrelay.io/widgets/oddsrelay-widgets.js" async></script>

Paste it once, anywhere. The script auto-mounts every data-or-widget element and is style-isolated in a Shadow DOM, so it never clashes with your CSS.

Installing on WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix or React?
WordPress
Add a Custom HTML block (or switch the classic editor to the Text tab) and paste the snippet.
Webflow
Drop in an Embed element, paste the snippet, and publish — the widget renders on the published site.
Squarespace
Insert a Code block where you want the widget and paste the snippet as HTML.
Wix
Add an Embed HTML element (iFrame-free custom code) and paste the snippet.
React / Next.js
Render the div, then load the script once (e.g. next/script or an effect). The bundle auto-mounts new [data-or-widget] elements; call window.OddsRelay.scan() after client-side navigations if needed.

Value betting comes down to one question: is the price longer than the true chance deserves? Put in the offered odds, your own probability estimate and a stake, and the calculator returns the expected value of the bet, your percentage edge, and the fair odds your estimate implies.

What it does

  • Expected value in cash and as a percentage edge
  • Fair odds for your probability estimate
  • The probability the offered price implies
  • A clear value / no-value verdict

How to use it

  1. 1Enter the odds. Type the decimal odds being offered.
  2. 2Add your probability. Enter your estimate of the true win chance as a percentage.
  3. 3Read the edge. See the expected value, your edge and the fair odds.

What powers this

This calculator runs entirely in your browser. There's no account, no API key and no feed — nothing you type leaves the page. The maths is the same commodity matched-betting and value arithmetic used across the industry, implemented carefully and unit-tested.

Questions

How is expected value calculated?
Expected value = stake × (your probability × odds − 1). When your probability times the decimal odds is greater than 1, the bet has positive expected value.
What are 'fair odds'?
Fair odds are the break-even price for your probability estimate: 1 ÷ probability. If the offered odds are longer than the fair odds, the bet is value.
Where does the probability estimate come from?
That's your input — it's your model, your read of the market, or a sharper book's price converted to a probability. The calculator turns that estimate into an edge; it doesn't predict outcomes for you.
