Types of Bets Available on Stake

Stake supports several wager structures across its sportsbook, giving players control over risk and potential payout on every event.

  • Single: A single-selection wager on one outcome. Your return is calculated by multiplying your stake by the odds of that selection;

  • System Bet: A combination wager that covers multiple parlays from a set of selections. A system bet can return partial payouts if not all selections win, reducing overall risk compared to a standard parlay.
