Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate the stake needed for a specific profit?
Divide your desired profit by (decimal odds - 1). For example, to profit $100 at 2.50 odds: $100 / (2.50 - 1) = $66.67 stake required.
Does this calculator work with all odds formats?
This calculator uses decimal odds, the standard in Australia. To convert from other formats, use our Odds Converter calculator.
What happens if the odds are very low?
Lower odds require a larger stake for the same profit. At 1.20 odds, you'd need to stake $500 to profit $100. At 5.00 odds, you only need $25.
