At a 7.79% margin, every 100 units you stake with Betfair carry an expected cost of 7.79 units before any skill is involved. Someone staking 100 units a month pays roughly 93 units a year in margin alone — 73 units more per year than at the cheapest bookmaker we track (Matchbook, 1.73%).
Each point is the average margin of the matches whose last pre-match price we captured that week (weeks with fewer than 10 matches are hidden). The most recent point can still move slightly as late prices arrive.
Margin by competition, last 30 days, leagues with at least 20 priced matches. 'Market avg' is the average margin of all bookmakers we track on that league — how Betfair compares to its peers, not just to itself.

Minden mérkőzésnél az egyes bukmékerek legfrissebb 1X2 árait vesszük a saját odds-pillanatképeinkből, átváltjuk őket implikált valószínűségekké (1 osztva az oddsszal), majd összegezzük. A tiszta piac pontosan 100%-ot ad ki; az efelett lévő rész a bukméker marginja — a beépített díj, amit minden fogadásnál megfizetsz. Ezt a marginjátlagot minden olyan meccsre kiszámoljuk, amelyet a bukméker az elmúlt 30 napban árazott. Senki nem fizet nekünk a helyezésért, és semmilyen partneri megállapodás nem rendezi át ezt a táblát: ez a rögzített árakból számolt matematika, naponta újraszámolva.
