FAIRLAY - SPORTS BETTING for experts - highest liquidity, provably best odds

[elusive1]

Two quick questions, my apologies if the first has been answered previously.

1. How does Fairlay earn enough be function, as sports which is the vast majority of action, has no commission?



2. The overwhelmingly majority of times where I bet  greater than one BTC on a sporting event, Pinnacle moves that line within 10 seconds. Is there any connection between the companies?
Perhaps just a market maker with software and % deal with Pinnacle?

Two quick answers:

1. We have a lot of action on the Presidential Election markets.  Also some additional traffic is coming in via our API. Furthermore we operate at very very low costs by automating most ouf our internal processes, not offering any affiliate program or doing much advertisement.  We also charge fees from our API users and market makers. We are still in the development phase and generating revenue is not our top priority right now.

2. One of our main market makers also hedges his position on Pinnacle from time to time. We can't comment on any deals between that market maker and pinnacle.

0.00% fees? How is that possible? How can fairlay pay the host, the support, etc if they have no fees? Where's the trick?

Also, is there an affiliate program?

Sorry about my unknowledge, I hope you can solve my doubts guys.

there is fee but not in all markets , some markets have no fees just like other sports bookies and in other markets fairlay take a small cut from the winnings
not sure about if they have an affiliate program tho , but in general Fairlay is great if not the greatest in the btc market

No, our website is mobile friendly and there is no need for an Android app.


@albertorma

Our presidential election markets and all Bitcoin and News bets do have a commission:

https://www.fairlay.com/market/next-president-11/

We also take fees from our API users.

The 0% commission on sport markets is possible, as market creation and settlement is fully automated.

It's our current policy to not have any affiliate program.

We received a lot of requests to add the support for absolute dates in the past.  You can now switch from relative to absolute dates in your Profile Preferences!  

Your feedback is highly appreciated. Please leave it here:  https://fairlay.uservoice.com/forums/239705-general.

Can you update us as to the future of sports betting on your platform?

[FairlaySupport]

Everything will be fine. We are releasing new updates on the website as soon as we receive them.

Hey there ---
So, for the life of me I can't figure out how to add McMullin as an option in the Presidential market, uh is that something you guys have to do on your end? I don't want to create a second market just to do that, if I don't have to...
Thanks!

[FairlaySupport]

Once a market is created, it is not possible to change it anymore.  You have to create a new one!  @cc1184

Regarding the general situation:  Some of our customers had to wait longer than usual for their settlements in the last days. We are sorry for the delays and our team is working hard to fix everything.

Automatic settlement are working again.

@sunshine

we are planning to introduce a bet slip  and more tools  to make live betting more fun.    Unfortunately or live section still needs more market makers.  Once we get more on board, we will intensify our efforts to improve the live product!

Sounds you have not try it first before commenting, right?
I suggest you give a try first it it does not work on the mobile as they claim because a times the device we use may the one causing the problem. But, when you try with another device you will find the differences.

Do you allow your market makers to know which Fairlay user just placed a bet against them?

We will put it on our agenda to review our site on more  mobile devices. If there is any concrete issue, please let us know.

Hi Support,
The document of public API is broken, could you upload a new one?
And do you have a dedicated email for API questions?
