Overview description of scanner ArbMate
ArbMate is an arbitrage betting scanner launched in 2018. It covers both prematch and live surebets, as well as middles and Polish middles.

Its broad functionality makes OddsJam more than a dedicated surebet scanner, but pricing and regional sportsbook coverage should be considered when comparing it with arbitrage-focused alternatives.

Deprecated scanner
DevilBets
DevilBets was a prematch surebet scanner that worked through a browser extension and supported a relatively limited number of bookmakers. The service appears to be no longer active, and its website is currently unavailable.
DevilBets remains listed on SmartScaner as part of our historical archive of arbitrage betting software.
BetRinger
Another scanner with reasonable functionality and interface. Nevertheless, subscription is too expensive, as far as we think. This service has the unclear rule of restriction in number of users. A hype or poor server performance – the root is unknown. Using this software looks weird when there are many scanners that are better and profitable.
However, we must mention this surebet scanner in this rating.
WettPortal
Raw and shoddily translated. Nevertheless, it carries out its duties: it scans coefficients, compares them and finds surebets.
We cannot give you any reason to use this service for surebet scanning.
TX Odds
Brief Description of TX Odds: though this scanner works reliably and carries out all duties well, it is not that distinguished from competitors to have such expensive subscription.
It is quite good in finding surebets, but some scanners do the same by the lower price.
Infobet
This scanner can be barely recommended, as there are many services that are by far more convenient and functional.
More than 10 minutes of latency in surebet information representation. Professional working with surebets cannot go with such interval. Wedon’tadviseyoutousethisservice! Scanning is related to risks of account blocking.
UPD, March 31, 2016: the website stops responding. Probably, the service is no longer available.
TheForks
TheForks was originally a standalone live arbitrage scanner focused on fast-moving in-play opportunities. The service is no longer offered as a separate product and its functionality has been integrated into PositiveBet as part of the Live+ plan.
We keep TheForks in the SmartScaner rankings as part of our historical archive of arbitrage betting software. For current live arbitrage functionality, see our PositiveBet review.
ArbIQ
ArbIQ is a surebet scanner launched in 2021, offering prematch arbitrage scanning along with value bets, middles, and odds comparison tools. SmartScaner reviewed the service when it was actively available.
We are currently unable to independently verify ArbIQ's availability, so its present functionality, bookmaker coverage, and pricing may differ from the information in our original review.
