SureBet is one of the longest-running arbitrage betting scanners, operating since 2009. It focuses on prematch surebets across a wide range of bookmakers and sports. The service also includes an arbitrage calculator and additional tools for analyzing betting opportunities.

SureBet has been operating since 2009 and was one of the earliest dedicated surebet scanners on the market. Over the years, it has built a loyal user base. But how well does it hold up against modern competitors?

— The number of bookmakers scanned – over 255.
— Scanning speed – 100 seconds, which is certainly a lot for today's level of the surebet business.
— The scanner has a browser extension called SureBetSlip, which helps bettors find the right bets and place them in the bet slip.

💡 SureBet operates in prematch mode only., i.e., bets are placed before the event starts. The service administration had plans to start Live scanning, but it seems this segment will remain unrealized.

Is this bad? Yes. But only in the context of more risky live surebets. It's clear that in real-time, the risk of errors grows exponentially, while in the prematch mode, you can place bets calmly, without fearing rapid odds drops or misclicks.

✅ And it is in prematch surebets that the scanner truly excels: a huge selection of bookmakers – over 250, not counting clones. The interface looks dated, but it remains one of the clearest and most practical interfaces among surebet scanners.

 

A very convenient filter system is another advantage of this scanner

 

With its help, you can customize the output of results. For example, you can filter surebets by age, profitability, and match start time. Additionally, you can select sports and those bookmakers where you have funds for surebetting. Unique SureBet filters:

— Exclude surebets with outcomes only from fast bookmakers: Pinnacle, Sbobet, 188bet and 12bet
— Exclude surebets that are highly likely to be erroneous
— Exclude surebets for which bookmaker rules differ significantly
Section: Surebets

The Surebets section displays all scanning results. It shows information about the surebet's profitability, bookmakers, event date and time, the event itself, bets, and odds. It's useful to pay attention to the surebet initiator, i.e., which bookmaker inflated the odds. In Surebet, it is marked with a black dot, and when placing bets on the surebet's legs, you should start checking with the initiator.

Section: Middles

In the Middles section, in addition to standard information, the calculated mathematical expectation, the middle coefficient, the probability of hitting the middle, the loss in case of a miss, and the win in case of a hit are added for arbitrage situations.

Section: Value Bets

SureBet also includes a full-featured Value Bets scanner for finding odds that may be higher than their estimated fair value. One of its biggest advantages is free access: the Free plan shows value bets with up to 10% value, making it possible to use the tool without a paid subscription. Basic and MAX subscribers get access to all available value bets without this limit.

This makes SureBet particularly attractive for users who want to try value betting without committing to an expensive monthly subscription.

SureBetSlip – browser extension for speeding up your workflow

Even in pre-match surebets, speed can sometimes make all the difference. And accuracy of placement is even more of a determining factor when placing all legs of a surebet. The creators of SureBet thought about how to make life easier for arbers in these two key areas. The Surebetslip application is designed precisely for fast and accurate placement of all bets included in a surebet. Working with the application is intuitive and is unlikely to raise any questions or difficulties. It's important to know that such an application exists and that it makes sense to use it. No one is immune to mistakes at the level of a misclick, so wouldn't it be better to reduce the likelihood of such errors?

SureBet Pricing Plans

Recently, the service revised its pricing policy and smartly segmented its audience.

You can view the pricing on the left side of the page.

Below is a brief description of the plans and recommendations for choosing one:

Beginners and Casual Users – Free Plan

If you're just starting out, aren't ready to pay, or bet infrequently, this option is ideal. You get basic surebets (albeit with low profitability) and access to value bets — a rarity even among paid scanners. The downside: the low percentage of surebets (up to 1%) won't generate serious profit, but it's suitable for learning and small bets.

Most Active Arbers – Basic Plan

This is the "workhorse." Basic is balanced and affordable (even though the price increased slightly). It provides all surebets, middles, value bets, auto-refresh, and 5 points of odds history.

Who it's for: Those who have outgrown the free plan but don't need professional settings. You get full functionality for consistent arbitrage without overpaying.

Professionals and Hardcore Arbers – MAX Plan

This plan was created for those who live and breathe arbitrage and want maximum control and speed. Here are the key features that "veterans" will appreciate:

Feature What it's for
Full access to player props Unlocks markets that are usually hidden or restricted — often where the deepest surebets are found.
Removal of limits on similar bets Prevents missing correlated outcomes (e.g., Over 2.5 and Over 1.5 in the same match).
Exchange commission calculation Critical for working with Betfair, Smarkets, etc. — without this, surebets may be false.
Extended history (10 points + opening odds) Helps analyze line movement and predict surebets.
"Non-initiator" mode Allows you to understand which leg of a surebet to place first.
Double scanning frequency Provides a time advantage.

Who it's for: Professionals with large turnover who work with exchanges, exotic markets, and need line movement analytics (10 points of history).

 

Summary: Which Plan for Which Arber?

Type of Arber Recommended Plan Why
Beginner Free Try the functionality, understand the basics.
Amateur / Consistent Arber Basic Optimal price-to-feature ratio.
Professional / Hardcore Arber MAX Deep analysis, removal of limits, exchange trading, and enhanced speed.

Feedbacks of scanner

A good choice for beginners, and experienced users will find it suitable too. I have been betting for a long time, but I tried to avoid scanners like this because I was afraid of losing good accounts at Bet365 and William Hill. But I decided to try it when my balance declined, and I am still playing with particular pleasure)

Low prices, quite a lot of bookies to choose from, and it scans fairly well. There are enough surebets, and I can't complain that they are all unprofitable and knowingly losing. Of course, there are no 100% options, but they don't exist anywhere

I liked the service, the surebets are excellent, but the middles are organized best of all. I hadn't used them before because I didn't understand what they were, but now I realize that I missed a lot of earning opportunities. The prices are low, and the subscription basically pays for itself quite easily, although not quickly.

I didn't like the live surebets, but everything is quite interesting in prematch. I bought a monthly plan and am happy with everything

An average scanner in terms of functionality, with few updates, and it seems to have stalled in development. But overall, there are still some good offers, and it will appeal to fans of value bets and middles. But, in principle, there are also more advanced resources

terrible scanner as of 31.05.2020. I bought a subscription for 1 week. The surebets with odds are not updated, they are old. The events in the surebets are different. I have not seen a worse scanner yet. I do not recommend it.

A solid scanner. I first used it in 2017, and now I bought a subscription—nothing has changed. Absolutely nothing. There are errors, but if you bet sensibly, they are not critical.

Don't enter the betting section with an edge at all, because I couldn't make so many irrational predictions even under the influence of drugs. Favorites aren't considered worthwhile at all, while SureBet seems to simply adore underdogs. The odds are juicy, of course, but they are completely useless. The probability of such bets landing is 1 in 100, which is practically impossible and clearly unpromising, whether you take any perspective—long-term or short-term.

Overlooking everyone else, I will give this legendary project the highest rating! Although it is not exactly top-tier now, I continue betting with шуриком and am still in the black! I do nothing extra because I am very lazy :) Of course, I sometimes additionally analyze my bets, since large odds have always raised questions, and this case is no exception.

A good scanner, the prices are reasonable, and there is no posturing or anything else. In my opinion, almost 200 euros a year is not even close to a negligible amount. However, the company still does not raise prices, allowing people to work and earn. There really are benefits, and you can roughly outline everything as +10-30% per month. With larger stakes, you can end up well in the black. The verified bets clearly did not work out, nor did the middles, since what is found here is mostly complete nonsense. Otherwise, everything is fairly decent, although there are plenty of drawbacks as well.

A top-tier scanner that has been working with optimal efficiency for quite a long time. I don’t even remember exactly when I started using Surebet, but it’s been more than 5 or 10 years already. The project continues to please users with its terms and functionality, but despite the promising figures, the scanner has declined quite a bit. I immediately noticed downturns after analyzing less popular bookmakers—they were offering -2.5 odds on underdog victories, and this was in a decisive tournament. The odds of 81 made it clear what was going on, and I didn’t doubt the overall outcome for a minute. I’ve put the paid plans on hold for now, because the nonsense in the line is more noticeable than ever.
