What we measure ourselves and what we source
We record odds and market depth ourselves from Shuffle’s pages and calculate the margin with the formula below. Latest sample: 49 football and 24 esports matches, odds recorded on 30 September 2026, between 1 and 13 days before kick-off.
We have not tested withdrawals ourselves — that needs a funded account. Those figures come from independent tests by other publications and we always name the source. Bet acceptance delay and support response times are not measured yet either, and the review says so.
Odds collection and margin
We take every available match of the next round or event in each league and title — usually 3 to 10 events per competition. The latest sample: 49 football matches and 24 esports matches.
A detailed example is in Odds explained.
Payout timing
We have not made withdrawals ourselves. The review collects independent test results, naming the publication, the currency and the time, so you can check every source.
Live betting
Here we record only what is visible without an account: how many events are available in-play and which matches carry a stream. Bet acceptance delay cannot be measured without an account.
Score weights
The final score is a weighted average of six categories. The weights are the same for football and esports; only two category names differ.
| Category | Weight | What we assess |
|---|---|---|
| Odds & margin | 25% | Margin on core markets compared with the market |
| Market depth / titles | 20% | Number of competitions and markets per event |
| Payout speed | 20% | Median and maximum withdrawal time |
| Safety & trust | 15% | Licence, transparency, KYC, support |
| UX & mobile | 10% | How easy the site is to use on phone and desktop |
| Live / stats | 10% | Delays, line updates, cash-out |
Updates and corrections
Scores are reviewed every quarter and after significant changes: a new licence, changes to payout terms or the VIP program. If we find a mistake, we correct it and note the date of the change at the top of the review.
We take part in the Shuffle affiliate program. Our methodology and scores don’t depend on it — more on the About page.
