Bet25.com has launched a sportsbook model that charges a 5% fee on the stake rather than incorporating the operator margin into quoted odds. The operator calls the product Zero Margin Sportsbook and says the fee is applied once per bet slip, including slips with multiple selections.
The model is offered alongside conventional sportsbook markets. The fee must be shown separately before the customer confirms the wager. The platform and development work were supplied by Vegangster.
Commercial considerations
A separate fee changes how customers compare prices and calculate potential returns. The effective value depends on the quoted odds, number of selections and fee treatment, so the label “zero margin” should not be taken as proof that every bet offers a better return than a conventional bookmaker. Affiliates reviewing the product should compare the final amount payable and settlement terms, not just headline odds.
