Commissions explained

Matchbook Commission Structure

Matchbook charges a small commission on each bet you place.

If you post an offer , which another user subsequently matches, you will be charged 0.5% commission, calculated on volume

If you accept an offer , which another user has posted, you will be charged 1.0% commission, calculated on volume.

These commission rates will be applied to the Win amount on winning bets. For losing bets, it will be applied to the lesser of the stake or potential Win amount.

Please see below for examples.
