OddsPortal is a long-running sports betting odds comparison platform that also provides tools for identifying surebets and analyzing bookmaker odds. Unlike dedicated arbitrage scanners, it combines betting odds, market information, results, statistics, and arbitrage-related tools within a broader sports betting platform.

The service remains active and can be useful for bettors who want more than a standalone surebet feed. However, users looking specifically for a specialized arbitrage scanner may find dedicated services more focused on this task.

OddsPortal is a surebet scanner that helps in monitoring movement of coefficients in bookmaker offices selected by gamblers. It has 4/5 rating on functional capabilities. Generally, navigation through the website is intuitive.

Though, interface is English only, which may be a pinch point for CIS gamblers. At the time of composing of the review (March 1, 2017), the service was forbidden in Russia. However, this cannot hinder professionals from working with it, so the website can be accessed through mirrors.

OddsPortal functional capabilities

The service analyzes coefficients of 80 betting offices of various levels – 20 regional ones and 60 internationally known
Relatively many sport fields – 20 kinds
To reveal the technical potential of the service, a user has just to register. No payment required – using is 100% free
A gambler can use the informer: arbitrage found by set parameters are highlighted in red. At the same time, a user gets a message on the e-mail they specify during the registration.
In the profile, users can form their personal rating of bookmakers based on their experience in working with them.
Coefficient updating takes place each 15 seconds – this is automatic, but information can be manually updated, if desired.
For maximum comfort, a gambler may choose the type of coefficients.
2 types of markets the scanner can work with: main – 1x2, double outcome, Asian handicap, etc; and additional – both teams get goals, odds/evens.

Credibility

OddsPortal has many backers among surebet gamblers. This is largely due to high-quality functionality. The website provides mass information that assists gamblers in making right decisions when using the surebet strategy.

The most significant disadvantages noted by users are insufficient operation speed and long time of technical support response.

Please be advised that the administration of the website warns about full personal responsibility of a gambler for the outcome of the conflict with a bookmaker. The mission of the website is to provide many-sided information for betting when finding arbitration.

Feedbacks of scanner

Compared with the other scanners, this one doesn't seem so bad. It seems to have everything needed, including analysis of the movement of bookmakers' lines. It's just that you can't filter the sport in any way, which means that all the speed is worthless. Overall, I wouldn't say it's a bad scanner, but I think there are better ones, especially since the price here is higher than that of many direct competitors with the same functionality. But the little audio signal is definitely useful, so you won't miss the start of events.

Choosing OddsPortal as my main service is fully justified for me personally by the functional flexibility its creators built into it. Its objective advantages include the simplicity and convenience of searching for surebets, which makes occasional betting profitable and easy. It does not reach perfection, but for an amateur bettor, of whom there are many, I consider this scanner the best.

Unlike others, OddsPortal has nothing unnecessary. An extremely clear interface even for someone who doesn’t speak English. There’s no burdensome tinsel such as calculators, but there is a large selection of different filters. Having chosen this service once, I think I’m unlikely to leave it now.

OddsPortal has become the best for me. For example, it can search not only for profitable surebets, but it is also the most optimal way to work with value bets through it. The number of bookmakers scanned is on par with other services, but you won't have to spend a lot of money here. I suspect that the developers' main income comes from advertising and affiliated services.

If you need a quality service for live and prematch betting, but don't want
to pay unbelievable amounts of money - choose OddsPortal. The advantages here
include a wide variety of sports, well-implemented filters, and a decent community, although
mostly English-speaking. Many bookmakers are available for scanning. But if
you need convenient tools such as a calculator, look for something else.

To be honest, I didn’t understand at all why OddsPortal is needed. It lags,
freezes, and barely scans. Besides, getting “caught” playing professionally with
bookmakers using this service is as easy as anything. I couldn’t find Russian,
and I didn’t even understand whether it exists here at all or whether I was maliciously
cheated. Overall, a pointless and cumbersome scanner. Better look for something else,
without pretensions, but functional.

I don’t understand the enthusiastic reviews from before. What’s more, now you have to access it through Tor, for example. Because they have restrictions on Russian IPs and don’t show surebets.

Support doesn’t respond; it feels as though it doesn’t exist.

In my opinion, the site looks abandoned.
