Matched betting, made manageable

Matched betting done differently.

LayMatched guides you through every step — find an offer, calculate the match, check funding, place and record, then see the real result. Your application runs privately on your own VPS.

Why LayMatched exists

Matched betting can get complicated. LayMatched brings it all together.

Offers, balances, liability, calculations and results — organised in one place so you always know what comes next.

Scattered accounts

My Money tracks every balance. Bookmaker cash, exchange cash, committed stakes, liability and outstanding rewards — in one place.

Calculator juggling

The calculator is built in. Stake, odds, commission and liability worked out for you at each guided step.

Lost free bets

Rewards are tracked. Free bets, expiries and conversion status never slip past you.

Spreadsheet drift

Ledger records everything. Every deposit, withdrawal, bet, settlement and adjustment — auditable and linked to the offer that created it.

Open exposure unclear

Open Exposure shows risk. Money currently at risk on the exchange, with funding readiness checks before you place.

No help when stuck

Contextual help everywhere. Plain-English explanations appear exactly where you need them — no separate manual to hunt through.
