Getting started with Trackbet: add your first bet

Go to trackbet.io and choose Start free. You can register with an email address and password, with your Google account, or with Telegram. Email sign-ups get a confirmation link; if it does not arrive, the login screen has a "Resend confirmation email" action.

After that a short onboarding wizard asks for the essentials: a username (Google and Telegram sign-ups only), your first bankroll, the bookmakers you use, and your timezone and odds format. Everything can be changed later in Settings.

A bankroll is a separate pot of money with its own currency, balance and statistics. Most people start with one. Name it, pick a currency (or "units" if you prefer to think in stakes rather than money) and enter the starting balance.

The free plan includes one bankroll. Pro lets you create as many as you like, which is the clean way to keep a tipster's picks, your own bets and a crypto account apart, or to run a public bankroll that others can follow.

Add the bookmakers you bet with. Start typing to pick from the list or add a custom name. Bookmakers are shared across the account: when you add a bet you choose from this list, and Quick Scan recognises the bookmaker from the slip and matches it to the same names.

The Bookmakers page keeps a balance per bookmaker from your deposits, withdrawals and settled bets, so you always know where your money sits.

Open Add bet from the top navigation. The page has two modes and remembers the one you used last.

Quick Scan — the fastest way when you already placed the bet:

1. Screenshot the bet slip (or the confirmation screen) in the bookmaker app
2. Drag it in, paste it or pick it from your files — up to 12 images at once
3. The details are read off the image: teams, market, selection, odds, stake, bookmaker, kickoff and whether it is already settled
4. Review each bet in the slip on the right, correct anything, and save

Manual entry — when you want to add the bet in a few clicks or before you place it:

1. Search for the event by team or player name
2. Click the market you bet on in the odds board — the selection, line and side fill themselves in
3. Type your odds and stake; the slip shows your edge against the true odds straight away
4. Save. Combos and bet builders work the same way: keep clicking prices to stack legs

If the event is not in the list yet, choose "Enter manually" and type the teams and kickoff yourself. Already tracking bets elsewhere? The Import page takes a CSV export and previews every bet before anything is saved.

A bet that is linked to an event carries a few small labels that do the heavy lifting:

• True odds — the current no-margin price of your selection in the sharpest market, refreshed every 15–120 seconds until kickoff, with the line limit in brackets
• Edge — how much better (green) or worse (red) your odds are than the true odds right now, shown under your odds
• Optimal — the Kelly-sized stake for that edge and your bankroll, using the Kelly fraction from Settings; it reads 0 when the edge is negative
• Live score — a red pulsing badge while the game is on, then the final score once it is known
• CLV — after kickoff, the closing line value: your odds against the closing true odds. This is the number that tells you whether you are beating the market

Read the CLV and analytics guide for what each of these means for your results.

When the final score is in, Trackbet works out the result of the bet and shows it as a suggestion — it never settles a bet on its own. On the dashboard, pending bets that have finished sit under "Awaiting settlement":

• One bet — click the outcome on the row; the settle window opens with the suggested result and the score, and you confirm it
• Many bets — choose Batch settle. High-confidence suggestions are pre-ticked; check the list and confirm them all at once
• Combos — legs are settled one by one as their games finish; the bet settles itself when the last leg is decided

Outcomes available: won, lost, half won, half lost (Asian lines), void and cashout (enter the amount). A settled bet can be reopened and corrected at any time.

The dashboard opens on the period that has data — today, this month or all time — and shows net profit, yield, turnover and pending bets for that period, with a profit chart beside them. Below it are your pending bets in two tables: games that have started and are waiting to be settled, and upcoming bets, soonest first.

The Analytics page goes deeper: profit over time, performance by sport, bookmaker, market, league, odds range, day and tipster, and a full closing-line-value section. Bet history holds every bet with search, filters, editing and CSV export.
