BMBets is a long-running odds comparison and betting analytics service that also provides tools for finding surebets, value bets, and middles. The platform covers dozens of bookmakers and combines arbitrage scanning with odds comparison and additional market analysis tools.

The service remains active and offers both free and paid functionality. Its interface and overall approach are more traditional than those of many newer arbitrage platforms, but BMBets remains one of the established services in this segment.

BMbets is free bookmaker surebet scanner. It is a main advantage and at the same time, main failure.

First, this website works poorly without proper financing. Second, it makes its selections widely accessible which results in many players bustling to make bets and get caught by bookmakers easily.

Now, the most important data on this website.

BMbets was started in 2010. It analyzes a massive array of bookmakers and sports, giving large selection of surebets with various coefficients up to 15. In social media, the website is represented in Facebook and Twitter. It is one of very few free relatively good surebet scanners. Due to this fact, it is very popular, especially among newbies.

Thousands of players view high coefficient surebets, and many of these players place bets. Upon a wave of similar bets, bookmakers get corresponding ideas quickly. BMbets users must be very cautious because they can found their account blocked right after two or three bets.

The scanner has simple and convenient website implemented in Russian and English.

This page presents most interesting surebets currently found, including value surebets (surebets of same bookmaker). Announcements of upcoming events and breaking news can also be found here. As we say, the stuff but not the fluff.

Service developers promise to develop web-service and API in future, as well as adding new tools to enhance process of searching for best bookmaker surebets.

Also, expansion of scanned bookmakers list is planned.

Bookmakers and sports

It is curious, that various authors describe different volume of work of this scanner. Number of scanned bookmakers varies from 50-70 in open sources. Scanner website gives number of over 63. We will be using it, than. Among analyzed bookmakers, there are popular ones, such as:

  • Marathonbet / William Hill / Pinnacle Sports / Titanbet / 888Sport

According to the website, number of its searchable surebets sports is above 15, include quite rare ones:

  • handball / rugby / snooker / water polo / bandy / table tennis / cricket / badminton / floorball / eSports

Bookmaker website has an individual section with list of bookmakers. Bookmakers info presented as a table indicating ratings (based on analysis of few indicators, including number of coefficients, bet lead width, scope of sports and championships), average payment percentage, presence of Asian handicap, Live bets and mobile version.

Interface

BMbets is easy for navigation, there are individual sections for surebets, bets comparison, value bets and surebets calculator. Surebets page is user-friendly, user can choose a time zone in the top part to search for relevant surebets. Coefficient format can also be selected:

  • decimal;
  • fractional;
  • American.

Functionality of selection filtering is quite wide. Player can select bookmakers and sports he needs. The scanner also allows to limit the coefficient value. Filtration settings can be saved. When visiting scanner next time, they will be opened in their saved state. But this option is available for registered users only. Yet, there are no other reasons to register at the website, as all other functions are available to anonymous users as well.

In value bets section, all required search parameters can be set. They are convenient as they allow to play within a single bookmaker. Yet, one must choose the bookmaker which will treat surebet users nicely.

Professional players may be interested in option of comparison of bets at various bookmakers. It allows to select most profitable bookmaker offers by searched event.

Another good function is surebet calculator allowing quick calculation of surebet profitability and determine optimal bet amounts. It should be kept in mind that the values given by the calculator shouldn't be taken as is, user must round them up in order not to get spotted by a bookmaker.

The scanner has a mobile interface; to use it, user must enter the website by special link starting with word "mobile". Mobile version has several disadvantages.

First, it is implemented in English only; second, it has less surebet filtration functionality. Nevertheless, one can operate it after getting used to it.

Достоинства и недостатки сканера вилок

Pros

The main and the biggest advantage of the scanner is its absolute accessibility and free basis. There are no limitations for surebets coefficient values like in other scanners which give only partial access to their accessibility. Here, absolutely everything is accessible.

Registration is required only for saving scanning settings for further visits. Also, among other advantages, there are:

  • Wide selection of bookmakers;
  • selection of sports, including not popular ones;
  • surebet calculator and bet analysis service;
  • user-friendly interface;
  • mobile version.

Cons:

Talking about disadvantages, as it was mentioned before, the main failure is accessibility of this service. BMbets surebets can be viewed by thousands of players. Naturally, most of them would like to make a bet, but bookmaker may find such wave of bets suspicious. Together with the browser history (if its not deleted after the scanner website visit), it can become a reason for imposing sanctions or banning the account. Also, this accessibility attracts a lot of newbies, thus resulting in great user load for the website. It sometimes affects its performance. It is the only significant disadvantage, but it is quite important.

Feedback

This website is generally noteworthy, it is especially interesting and handy for newbies. User can estimate general process of work with surebets and try betting on surebets found with the automated service. Yet, it's better to use more serious paid scanners for a serious game. Professionals can also make use of the bet comparison function and the calculator.

You cannot use this scanner on a permanent basis; that is only logical. If a bunch of users simultaneously look at the proposed surebets and place bets on them at the same time, what will the result be? Especially considering that bettors who access the free scanner are generally registered with several of the main, most popular bookmakers. Naturally, the specialists at the bookmakers will quickly identify such odds, and those who use them as well. Respect to the guys for their charity, but this path will not lead to anything good.

I still could not understand how good this scanner is. I really wanted to see what the free program was like and whether it was genuinely possible to make a living from arbitrage betting without paying for subscriptions. I was unable to do this for one simple reason — it was Saturday, and so many people flooded into the scanner that the site simply froze, showing no signs of life. The creators clearly did not expect to find so many people wanting to use the discovered surebets for free. The scanner crashed, and all I can say is that the creators knew what they were getting into.

A pleasant scanner, with many functions and fairly well-thought-out operation. You can set the odds however is most convenient for you. Surely there are people who are more accustomed to playing with fractional or American odds. You can choose a suitable sport; there are many here. It scans more than 50 bookmakers for sure, which is more than enough. I sometimes drop in and look at the lines; you can always find a suitable surebet. The only thing is that the site itself sometimes slows down, but nothing critical.

In fact, BM has some decent advantages even over paid scanners. There is a mobile version here which, by the way, lags less than the regular website. There are convenient filters, a choice of sports and bookmakers, and a decent number of arbitrage betting opportunities. Bad odds and dead arbitrage rarely come up, while profitable bets, on the other hand, can always be found. The only thing I do not like is that a great many people bet on the same outcomes at the same bookmakers at the same time. Even I would guess that something is wrong. It seems to me that if you spend 3-4 days really working with this scanner, then afterward not a single account with intact limits will remain.

You cannot criticize people who give away for free what others charge money for. Maybe I was initially unlucky, but when I first started looking for a scanner, the first thing I came across was Форкинг, and I saw that the subscription cost 995 dollars for 30 days. At that moment, I could not imagine that there was a free program with the same functionality. Not exactly the same, but the foundation of scanners is always the same — finding surebets. Respect to the creators; it is just not really possible to use the site properly because of server overload.

If you do something for free, that does not mean it can be done poorly. BMBets is exactly such a case: someone decided to help arbitrage bettors by creating a free scanner and equipping it with the necessary capabilities, but did not take care of the program’s quality of work. The search is slow, with many faulty surebets and distorted odds. Beginners who want to make quick money with free software are in for an unpleasant surprise. Experts will have to spend time checking things.

I want to express my gratitude to everyone involved with this scanner for the work they have done. A wonderful program with all the necessary functions. Not every paid scanner can offer all the capabilities available here. I am not an arbitrage betting specialist and do not aspire to make it my primary source of income, but once a week I visit BMBets to see what options are available and choose something suitable for the accounts I have. The entire process goes smoothly. I hope the site continues to develop; good luck to everyone!

An average scanner that only needs a little more attention from the developers to become excellent. If you have already created a fully functional free scanner, it is not that difficult to add a little more power so that the site does not sag under a large influx of visitors, and to pay more attention to the variety of surebets selected, so that the top results are not constantly occupied by 3-4 bookmakers that will gladly take on any suspicious account. I can see that improvements are gradually appearing; I hope they make it look good. For now, only three stars.

At first I thought I wouldn't be able to get acquainted with this scanner at all, because their site suddenly wasn't working. Then I realized that the issue was simply that it is unavailable in some countries. A VPN solved the problem, so I was able to sit and see whether it was possible to grow my bankroll over time, or whether it would turn into another roller coaster with unclear chances of success. It seems to be quite decent. There are incorrect surebets, but they are visible, so avoiding them isn't difficult. Otherwise, it's worthy.
