BreakingBet is a long-running arbitrage betting scanner offering prematch and live surebets, value bets and middles. The service covers more than 390 bookmaker sites and mirrors and monitors 16 sports, with real-time odds updates, filtering tools, calculators and betting analytics. In this review, we look at BreakingBet's current features, pricing, strengths and limitations.

History of BreakingBet

BreakingBet was launched in 2016, initially operating in test mode and remaining free for users until mid-2018. Since then, the service has developed considerably, adding new tools, expanding its bookmaker and sports coverage, and improving its interface and scanning capabilities.

Today, BreakingBet is a mature arbitrage betting platform offering prematch and live surebets, value bets and middles. The service continues to evolve: recent updates have included an API, redesigned filters, interface improvements and support for additional bookmakers.

Features and Advantages of BreakingBet

Before delving into the platform's functionality, it's essential to highlight the key features that this scanner offers. It's important to note that not all the features promoted by the developers can truly be considered advantages, but most of them do set the scanner apart from competitors.

  • High-Speed Updates

BreakingBet updates its data every 3–5 seconds, allowing users to respond quickly to changes in bookmakers' odds. Fast updates are particularly important for arbitrage betting, especially in live mode, where profitable opportunities can disappear within seconds.

Despite the relatively high scanning speed, BreakingBet maintains good result quality, which is one of the reasons we rate its scanning performance highly.

  • Extensive Bookmaker Coverage

BreakingBet offers extensive bookmaker coverage across both prematch and live scanning. According to the service's current data, Prematch covers 62 main bookmaker sites plus 333 supported clones and mirrors, while Live covers 42 main sites plus 243 clones and mirrors.

This distinction is important: the total number of supported sources should not be interpreted as hundreds of completely independent bookmaker companies. Many are regional versions, clones or mirrors of the same betting platforms. Even so, the coverage is broad and continues to expand as BreakingBet adds new bookmakers and regional sources.

  • User-Friendly Interface

BreakingBet has a clean and practical interface that is relatively easy to understand even for users who are new to arbitrage betting. Surebets, Middles and Value Bets are separated into dedicated sections, while the most important tools remain easily accessible.

Each opportunity can be opened directly in the calculator. The interface also provides information about the initiator and odds movements, while quick access to filters makes it possible to adjust the results without unnecessary navigation. Despite the large number of available settings, the platform remains fairly straightforward to use.

  • Trial Before Payment

BreakingBet allows users to explore the scanner interface before purchasing a subscription. This makes it possible to examine the available filters, see how opportunities are organized and try the built-in calculator before deciding whether the service is suitable for your needs.

However, access without a paid subscription is limited. Key betting information, including the actual outcomes and odds required to place the bets, remains hidden until a subscription is activated. The free access is therefore best viewed as a way to evaluate the interface and functionality rather than as a fully functional free scanner.

  • BreakingBet Scans 16 Different Sports

BreakingBet currently scans 16 sports, covering both major and less mainstream disciplines. The list includes football, ice hockey, handball, volleyball, basketball, tennis, baseball, boxing, MMA, e-Sports, darts, rugby, futsal, cricket, table tennis and American football.

Users can select the sports they want to work with in the filters and exclude irrelevant disciplines. This makes it easier to focus on familiar competitions without cluttering the results with unnecessary events.

  • Value Bets and Middles

BreakingBet includes dedicated sections for both Value Bets and Middles, so these tools are not simply additional indicators attached to the surebet scanner.

The Value Bets section searches for potentially overvalued odds and provides information such as the bookmaker, odds, estimated overvaluation and probability of the outcome. Users can configure separate filters to select the bookmakers, markets and parameters that fit their strategy.

BreakingBet also has a dedicated Middles scanner. For each opportunity, the service provides indicators such as mathematical expectation, the estimated probability of hitting the middle, potential profit if the result falls inside the target range, and the possible profit or loss if it does not.

Unlike classic surebets, neither Value Bets nor Middles guarantee a profit on every individual bet. They involve a different risk profile and should be evaluated using the statistical indicators provided by the scanner.

  • Bookkeeping and Betting Analytics

BreakingBet includes a built-in Bookkeeping system for tracking betting activity. Users can create bookmaker accounts, monitor balances, save bets directly from the calculator or add them manually, and keep a detailed history of settled and open bets.

The analytics section provides statistics such as profit, ROI, betting volume and open exposure. Results can also be analyzed by bookmaker account, time period and sport, making it easier to evaluate how different strategies perform over time.

Bookkeeping also supports deposit bonuses and freebets, while betting history can be exported to CSV for further analysis or personal records.

  • Multilingual Interface

BreakingBet is available in eight language versions: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese.

The multilingual interface is particularly useful for an international service, as users can work with the scanner, filters, calculators and help materials in their preferred language rather than relying entirely on English.

BreakingBet Surebets: Prematch and Live

BreakingBet uses a similar interface for finding and displaying surebets in both Prematch and Live modes. The results are presented in a compact format, while the key information needed to evaluate each opportunity remains immediately visible.

By default, surebets can be sorted by profitability, but users can customize the results through filters and sorting options. Each opportunity shows the sport, event, start time, bookmakers, betting markets and current odds, while the built-in calculator can be opened directly from the surebet list.

The surebet list and filters include the following options:

• Sort opportunities by profitability and other available parameters.

• Filter surebets by profit percentage, event start time and the lifetime of the arbitrage opportunity.

• Select specific betting markets, including main outcomes, totals, handicaps, individual totals and additional markets.

• Choose between two-way and three-way surebets and exclude specific line values when necessary.

• Select only the bookmakers the user actually works with. Bookmakers can also be marked as required, so the scanner displays only opportunities that include them.

• Select individual sports and exclude disciplines that are not relevant to the user's strategy.

• Create and save multiple filter configurations and quickly switch between them. Filter settings are stored separately for Surebets, Value Bets and Middles, as well as for Prematch and Live modes.

• Enable or disable sound and pop-up notifications for new surebets.

For each arbitrage opportunity, there is the option to remove it from the feed or report a potential error to customer support. Users can also enable push notifications to receive timely updates on any changes.

OddsClicker: Faster Bet Placement

BreakingBet integrates with the OddsClicker browser extension, which is designed to reduce the amount of manual work required when placing bets.

Depending on the settings selected for each bookmaker, OddsClicker can open the required event, find the relevant betting market, add the selected outcome to the betslip and, where supported, insert the stake calculated by BreakingBet.

The extension works directly with the scanner's Surebets, Middles and Value Bets sections. Individual actions can be configured separately for each bookmaker, and proxy settings are also available.

OddsClicker can save valuable time, particularly when working with short-lived opportunities. However, automation does not eliminate the need to check the odds, market and stake before confirming a bet: bookmaker lines can change while the bet is being prepared.

Negative Arbs

BreakingBet also supports negative arbitrage opportunities with margins down to -3% in both Prematch and Live modes.

Negative arbs are not designed to generate an immediate guaranteed profit. They can instead be used in more advanced strategies, for example when completing bonus wagering requirements or when an arbitrage bettor deliberately accepts a small calculated loss.

This is a specialist feature and is unlikely to be useful for beginners, but it expands the range of strategies available to experienced users.

Additional Advantages of the BreakingBet Scanner

In addition to its core scanning features, BreakingBet includes several practical tools that make everyday work with arbitrage opportunities more convenient.

• The built-in arbitrage calculator supports two-way and three-way surebets, stake rounding and different currencies. It can be opened directly from an opportunity or used separately.

• An active subscription can be frozen for up to 90 days, which is useful when taking a break from arbitrage betting without losing the remaining subscription time.

• BreakingBet provides a browser extension called OddsClicker, which can help users open the required bookmaker page, locate the relevant market and prepare the bet more quickly.

• The platform includes detailed help materials covering scanner settings, filters, surebets, Value Bets, Middles, Bookkeeping and other features.

Disadvantages of BreakingBet

BreakingBet has relatively few serious drawbacks, but there are several points worth considering before purchasing a subscription.

The first is complexity. BreakingBet offers a large number of filters, settings and additional tools. This is an advantage for experienced arbitrage bettors, but beginners may need some time to understand the interface and configure the scanner properly.

Another limitation is that the number of supported bookmakers differs between Prematch and Live. Live coverage is smaller, so users who mainly work with live arbitrage should check whether their preferred bookmakers are supported before purchasing a subscription.

BreakingBet also does not eliminate the usual risks associated with arbitrage betting. Odds can change before both bets are placed, bookmakers may apply different settlement rules, and accounts may be limited. Tools such as filters, the calculator and OddsClicker can make the process faster and more convenient, but they cannot remove these risks completely.

Finally, BreakingBet is a feature-rich professional tool rather than a simplified scanner. Users who need only basic prematch surebets may find some of its functionality unnecessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which bookmaker sites does BreakingBet scan? +

BreakingBet has broad bookmaker coverage, but the exact number depends on the scanning mode. The service currently lists 62 main bookmaker sites plus 333 supported clones and mirrors for Prematch, and 42 main sites plus 243 clones and mirrors for Live. The list changes over time as new bookmakers and regional versions are added, so users should check the current bookmaker list before subscribing if they need support for a specific site.

Is subscription renewal automatic or manual? +

Subscription renewal is manual. BreakingBet does not automatically charge users when a subscription expires. To continue using the service, the user must purchase or renew a plan manually.

How can I activate a discounted renewal? +

A discounted renewal price is available while the current subscription is still active. Users can renew through the pricing page, where the applicable renewal options and prices are displayed. Because renewal conditions may depend on the selected plan, it is best to check the available renewal option before the current subscription expires.

What is the subscription "freeze" feature? +

The Freeze feature allows users to temporarily pause an active subscription without losing the remaining subscription days. The available freeze duration depends on the selected plan. When the subscription is frozen, the remaining days are preserved and become available again after the subscription is reactivated.

How does the OddsClicker extension help with betting? +

OddsClicker is a browser extension integrated with BreakingBet that helps speed up the process of placing bets. Depending on the bookmaker and the selected settings, the extension can open the required event, find the relevant outcome, add it to the betslip and, where supported, insert the stake calculated by BreakingBet. OddsClicker works with Surebets, Middles and Value Bets. Users should still verify the odds, market and stake before confirming each bet, as bookmaker odds may change during the process.

Does BreakingBet provide betting analytics? +

Yes. BreakingBet includes a Bookkeeping system for tracking bets and analyzing results. Users can manage bookmaker accounts and balances, save bets directly from the calculator or add them manually, track settled and open bets, and analyze statistics such as profit, ROI and open exposure. Analytics can be filtered by bet type, mode, bookmaker account and date range. Betting history can also be exported to CSV for further analysis or personal records.

How can I contact BreakingBet customer support? +

BreakingBet support can be contacted through the feedback form on the website or by email at support@breaking-bet.com. According to BreakingBet, the support team typically responds within a few hours, although actual response times may vary.

Feedbacks of scanner

I like seeing this scanner improve. Its price is much lower than that of similar services. I hope it will remain at the same level.

The scanner worked well and quickly even when it was in beta testing. Bookmakers are constantly being added; in principle, they could stop now.

On the plus side, it is convenient that the subscription can be frozen for up to 90 days. This is useful because you do not want to pay money for the time when you have no opportunity to use it.

On the downside, I would like to work with negative surebets, but there are none here. Many people write that there are no free surebets. But the price here is such that anyone can afford it, even a student on a scholarship.

A good, fast, and above all cheap scanner. What else do you need to make money? The subscription pays for itself immediately, and then you work for yourself.
There are practically no errors, but I still check every surebet with the bookmakers.
In a month, I increased my bankroll 2,5 times without particularly straining myself.

It is hard to call this a scanner! Nonsense! Almost all the surebets are incorrect! It is better to use the free ones! Even this price is expensive for this wonder! I do not recommend it to anyone!

I’m terribly dissatisfied with this scanner; it feels as though all the reviews about it online were bought. The interface is awful, you can’t add a mirror for directly switching to the bookmaker, and the home and away teams are reversed, which wastes time while you’re trying to place a bet. The only advantage is the price, but with all the downsides, it isn’t much of an advantage)

Everything about the scanner suits me. Of course, the price most of all.

You can see how the resource is developing. I started working with them when they were completely free, but back then there really were many errors. That is if you compare it with paid scanners. 

At the moment, there are very few errors; the main place where they occur is overseas leagues, where the home and away teams are mixed up by the bookmaker. 

And it is even good that the subscription is paid: schoolkids and freeloaders are filtered out.

After they raised the prices, live started working noticeably better. I’m all for changes like that; the price is still the most attractive among the others.

You can also configure the necessary mirrors yourself, which is sometimes more convenient and faster than waiting for an automatic update.

The scanner is really very raw. It often shows bogus surebets—not valid ones (yesterday it was complete nonsense). The names of the teams (in the surebets), and even their order, are displayed in the scanner differently from the bookmaker’s website. My bookmakers are on virtual machines, while the scanner is on the host—I switch to surebets manually, so the display is inconvenient for me. When the scanner shows a surebet in a set (period, quarter), it does not show that the surebet is in a set (you have to figure it out yourself). My rating is -2.

I would like to note the prompt work of the support service. Very fast and polite. Several times I sent them messages about erroneous surebets, and in gratitude for the cooperation they gave me a one-week subscription. A small thing, but pleasant, as they say. It was not difficult for me to report it; I am all for such young services developing.

I can rate the quality of the work as average; after all, many errors still remain. I added a point for generosity.

I don't understand: when you set the odds, do you check them against something? Or do you place bets thoughtlessly without looking into it? Decent site, you just need to be more attentive. I agree, there are many errors, but everything will be fire.

I don't really understand how your ranking was compiled. It is strange to see Breaking Bet in first place.

The scanner is decent, really not bad, but calling it the best is wrong. There are much better ones, ABB itself, for example. Yes, its subscription is considerably more expensive, but the quality of its performance is incomparably higher. I tried working with Breaking Bet, but for the first time in my life I did not make it to the end of the subscription; I no longer had the nerves for the constant errors and freezes. Maybe something has changed for them, but I have no desire to try again.

A good, you could even say excellent, option for the money. 

In terms of price, it can be compared with 3bet, but the quality here is much higher. Plus, it has also been announced that there will be value bets, which is great in general; I need them for some of my other strategies.

By the way, for anyone who needs mirrors of blocked bookmakers, they can be added independently through the settings. 

+++ to everyone
