Sportsbook Arbitrage Finder & Betting Scanner
Lock in guaranteed profit regardless of the outcome. Sharp Lines detects pricing gaps between sportsbooks in real time so you can bet both sides of any betting market.
This arbitrage betting tool is a bet scanner and arbitrage bets finder that exploits pricing inefficiencies between sportsbooks. When two books disagree on the odds for an event in any betting market, you can bet both outcomes and lock in a guaranteed profit. Any type of betting, any sport. Sharp Lines acts as your sportsbook arbitrage finder. This betting scanner continuously monitors odds from 22+ US sportsbooks and surfaces opportunities the moment they appear. Each alert shows which books to use, the exact odds, and how to split your stake. You see the guaranteed profit percentage before acting. Pair the arbitrage tracker with ev betting tools (our +EV scanner) to maximize edge. Use the middles finder to win both sides when lines overlap.

Arbitrage Betting FAQ
What is arbitrage betting?
Arbitrage betting means placing bets on all possible outcomes of an event. You spread these across different sportsbooks where the combined odds guarantee a profit. For example: DraftKings offers +150 on Team A and FanDuel offers -130 on Team B. Betting both sides locks in profit regardless of who wins. It works because sportsbooks set odds independently and sometimes disagree on the true probability.
Is arbitrage betting legal?
Yes, arbitrage betting is completely legal in all US states where sports betting is legal. You are simply placing bets at the odds each sportsbook offers. However, some sportsbooks may limit accounts that they identify as consistently arbing. Sharp Lines is an analytics tool — we help you find opportunities but do not place bets on your behalf.
How much profit can I expect from arbs?
Typical arbitrage opportunities yield 1-5% guaranteed profit per event. While that sounds small, the key is that the profit is guaranteed — there is zero variance. With a $1,000 bankroll cycling through multiple arbs daily, profits compound quickly. The number of available arbs depends on the day, sport season, and how many sportsbook accounts you have.
How many sportsbook accounts do I need?
The more sportsbook accounts you have, the more arbitrage opportunities you will find. We recommend having accounts at a minimum of 5-6 major books (DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, BetRivers, ESPN BET). Each additional book significantly increases the number of available arbs.
How fast do arbitrage opportunities disappear?
Arbitrage windows can last anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes. Pre-match arbs tend to last longer (minutes), while live arbs may close within seconds. Sharp Lines provides real-time alerts with sub-second data latency on paid plans to help you act before opportunities close.
Can I try the arb scanner for free?
Yes. The free tier includes the arbitrage scanner (60-second data delay), a 2% EV cap, and two sportsbooks (DraftKings and FanDuel). The Plus plan ($59/mo) unlocks +EV, middles, low hold, real-time data, and all 22+ sportsbooks. It includes a 7-day free trial.
