Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a system and method for enabling the exchange, i.e. transfer of ownership, of online bets, or portions thereof, between two entities, e.g. between a gambler who has placed the bet, and another entity such as another gambler or agency.
  • single-leg bets there is typically a single gambling event having associated therewith betting odds, and a bet is made in relation to the outcome of the single gambling event.
  • a gambling event such as a horse race may attract bets, including single-leg and multi-leg bets, from multiple gamblers at different locations.
  • the bet has a value and the gambler becomes the “owner” of the bet. For example, a gambler may place a $100 single-leg bet on Thursday at $5 odds for a horse race that is scheduled to occur on Saturday, and therefore from Thursday through to race day on Saturday, the gambler is the owner of a $100 bet which has the potential to result in winnings of $500 (i.e. $400 profit).
  • the value of the bet may change (i.e. increase or decrease) depending on the extent to which the odds fluctuate leading up to race day.
  • the value of the bet will increase if the odds decrease closer to the event, and will decrease if the odds increase closer to the event. For example, in the scenario above, if the odds decrease to $1.80 on race day, the value of the bet as compared with its value on the date of placement has increased significantly, and is worth more than the original placement price of $100.
  • Instances may arise where a gambler prefers to “cash out” prior to the gambling event, e.g. to reduce their risk exposure, or for any other reason.
  • the cash out amount that is offered by bookmakers is typically well below “market value”.
  • market value For example, in the scenario above, the bookmaker with whom the gambler placed the $100 bet is likely to offer a cash out sum of no more than $150 on race day (where market value is more likely to be $225 or more).
  • market value is more likely to be $225 or more.
  • gamblers will lose out when they elect to cash out prior to a gambling event. Accordingly, there is a need for a platform that allows gamblers to exchange any type of bet with an entity other than the bookmaker with whom the bet was placed, such as another gambler or another bookmaker, on mutually beneficial terms.
  • the present invention provides a computer-implemented method of exchanging online bets, the method including: receiving, by one or more processors, bet data relating to an online bet placed by a gambler in relation to a gambling event, the bet data including a purchase price and initial odds associated with the bet at the time the bet was purchased, the bet including an initial value according to the purchase price and initial odds; causing, by the one or more processors, a data communication device associated with the gambler to display a cash out prompt in relation to the bet; receiving, by the one or more processors, from the gambler data communication device, a response to the cash out prompt confirming that the gambler prefers to consider a cash out of the online bet value according to a current value of the bet according to the current odds as compared with the initial odds; causing, by the one or more processors, a data communication device associated with one or more other entities to display the bet data, the current odds, and a purchase prompt; receiving,

  • the purchase prompt includes an empty data field which allows another entity to enter a purchase price based upon their estimate of the current value of the online bet, the purchase price included in the purchase proposal.
  • the cash out prompt may also enable the gambler to enter a sale price reflective of their estimate of the current value of the online bet, the sale price included in the gambler’s response to the cash out prompt and displayed to the one or more other entities along with the bet data, the current odds, and the purchase prompt.
  • the purchase proposal may indicate acceptance of the sale price or an adjustment thereto by the one or more other entities.
  • the method further includes: monitoring, by the one or more processors, purchase proposals received from the one or more other entities; dynamically updating, by the one or more processors, the purchase proposal displayed to the gambler such that the purchase proposal displayed represents the highest purchase offer from the one or more other entities.
  • the gambler may be alerted to new purchase proposals posted by the one or more entities, e.g. by an in-app notification, or by email or text message when the gambler is not using the application.
  • the purchase proposal displayed to the gambler as representing the highest purchase offer from the one or more other entities is also displayed to the one or more other entities such that each of the other entities are aware of the highest purchase offer currently under consideration by the gambler.
  • the method further includes splitting, by the one or more processors, the bet into two or more units that are individually available for purchase by the one or more entities.
  • causing the data communication devices associated with the one or more other entities to display the bet data further includes displaying each individual unit associated with the bet and, in addition to a purchase prompt relating to the bet, a purchase prompt in respect of each individual unit.

This may be useful in circumstances where it is difficult for the gambler to locate an entity willing to purchase the entirety of the bet at the current value, and where multiple entities may be willing to purchase a smaller share of the bet at a reduced rate.
  • the gambler may select the extent to which individual units are displayed for purchase, i.e. the gambler may elect to retain a percentage of the bet as compared with relinquishing the entire bet.
  • displaying the bet data may include displaying only those bet units that have been selected by the gambler as units the gambler is prepared to offer for sale.
  • bets that exceed a predetermined threshold are selected for splitting into two or more units.
