Our Sportsbook offers the option to buy points that will move the spread or total points value for your benefit, improving your odds of winning in exchange of a reduced payout.
How does buying points work?
You can buy points in amounts of half points each for the spread or game totals (0.5pt, 1pt, 1.5pt, 2.0pts, etc.) in Football and Basketball for Straight Bets only.
You can build several independent straight bets on your Bet Slip and buy points on each. However, if you want to combine the bets and buy the same amount of points for all of them, we recommend you to build a Teaser instead.
How many points can I buy?
The following chart explains the amount of points you can buy per sport; their cost and conditions (if any):
