  • markets are instances of market types
  • participant refers to, for example, an individual
  • a transaction history including a betting history of a punter is stored.
  • account information data of punters is stored.
  • Event category refers to a group of events having a common denominator, for example, all soccer events may belong to an event category named "Soccer” and all formula one races may belong to an event category named “Motorsport”.
  • Event categories is self-referencing, which allows for sub groupings.
  • the event category "Soccer” may have sub groupings named “Sweden” or "England”, which sub groupings, in turn, may have sub groupings, for example, the sub group “Sweden” may have the sub groups “Allsvenskan” and “Division 1 " and the sub group “England” may have the sub group "Premier League”.
  • the event category can define possible and default market types, which defines the rules for a betting object, for all events beneath it in the structure. Upon generation of events and markets, the default markets will always be created automatically by the system. Optional markets can be added manually.
  • the event category can, but need not to, define participants. For instance, in the sub group "Premier League" it may be useful to define available participants for rapid creation of new events.
  • Event refers to an activity, for example, a match, a contest or a venue where two parties can bet on the outcome of the activity, where the outcome is partially or totally dependent upon subjective probability.
  • the event defines a number of markets, i.e., betting object, where betting is allowed.
  • Market type defines the rules for a market (betting object). For example, it defines the number of selections that can be made, how results shall be registered, etc. Examples of market types are match winner, yes/no, correct score, etc. The same market type can be applied differently for events belonging to different event categories. For example, in a soccer game there may be a market of a market type match winner. This market will contain three possible outcomes i.e., victory for home team, draw or victory for away team. The market type is visible for administrators defining the rules and available betting objects. The punters will only see the created markets.
  • Market are instances of market types.
  • An event may have a number of instances of the same market type.
  • the market contains a set of selections (defines by the market type). For example, in a soccer game the event manager may chose the following markets: match winner (i.e., victory for home team, draw or victory for away team), who will score first, or correct score.
  • Markets are opener/closed for betting either manually or at a predefined time.
  • the markets may be closed manually.
  • Participant refers to, for example, an individual or a team for an event. Participants are tied to event categories and will be presented to the event manager whenever creating events or markets under the specified event category. For instance, in the event a soccer game both teams are participants. Each team will also have a set of participants (i.e., players) that may or may not be available for additional betting types.
  • Selection defines a choice where a bet can be placed. The selection points to an order book where parties can place the choice.
  • Order book defines a back and lay side and is the location where orders can be placed and matching occur.
