Right — been using this thing for maybe five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d say something since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly do football and horses, small stakes, so take it how you like.
The reason I started using it was honestly a bit daft — I never could work out what an e/w return actually was once you get five places instead of three. I used to just wing it and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the one I’m on daily — type in your stake, the odds and it shows the return with no faffing, either odds format. It also handles the bigger stuff — trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, honestly that’s where most people I know mess it up. Have a go yourself, it lives at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/matched-betting]exchange betting calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
One thing that actually shifted things for me were the geekier extras. They’ve got an implied probability calculator that shows what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly staking calculator — I stick to fractional kelly because full kelly is a quick route to a dead bankroll. Dutching calculator is handy too if I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. The layout looks pretty plain — not much flash, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works although the acca grid are a squeeze. Also there’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, works. If anyone even now adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me a load of “wait, that’s it?” moments.

OK — have been messing about with this thing for something like five months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so thought I’d write something up since a mate asked me a few days back. I’m UK based, mainly bet football and racing, a fiver here and there, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was honestly a bit daft — I could never figure out what an ew return actually came to with 1/5 odds a place. Basically I’d guess and moan when the payout landed. Now stick my stake in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I’m on daily — you drop in your stake, the odds and it spits out profit and total return with no faffing, either odds format. Same tool covers the multiples — acca and treble maths, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where I always lose track. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/no-vig]novig calculator[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
The thing that really changed how I bet was the geekier tools. They’ve got an implied probability calculator that shows the overround, and a kelly staking calculator — I use half kelly as the full version is far too aggressive. The dutch tool is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is very functional, let’s say — no frills, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. On my phone it’s usable but the bigger tables need a bit of scrolling. There’s nothing on the app store, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does what it says. Anyone who still adds it up in their head, have a look — saved me a load of arguments with the bookie.
