# Odds Types

These are the different formats of odds used in betting. The main types are:

1. **Decimal odds** are the most widely used format in Europe, Canada, and Australia. They are easy to understand because they represent the total payout for every 1 unit staked.
   * Formula: **Payout = Stake × Odds**
   * Example:
     * Odds: 2.50 - If you bet $10: Payout = 10 × 2.50 = $25 (which includes the $10 stake and $15 profit).
2. **Fractional odds** are commonly used in the UK and are expressed as a fraction (e.g., 5/1, 10/3, etc.). The numerator (top number) shows how much profit you will make for every denominator (bottom number) of stake.
   * Formula: **Payout = Stake × Odds + Stake**
   * Example:
     * Odds: 5/1 - If you bet $10: Payout = 10 × (5/1)+10 = $60 (which includes the $10 stake and $50 profit).
3. **Moneyline (American) odds** are popular among the United States bookmakers. The Moneyline odds show how much you need to bet to win $100 (if Moneyline is negative) or how much you would earn if your stake were $100 (if Moneyline is positive).
   * Formula:
     * Positive Odds: Show how much profit you would make from a 100-unit stake. **Payout = Stake × Odds/100 + Stake** 
     * Negative Odds: Show how much you need to stake to make 100 units of profit. **Payout = - Stake/Odds × 100 + Stake**
   * Examples: 
     * Odds: +200 - If you bet $50: Payout = 50 × (200/100)+50= $150 (which includes the $50 stake and $100 profit).
     * Odds: -150 - If you bet $50: Payout = -50/(-150) × 100 + 50 = $83.33(your $50 stake + $33.33 profit).
4. **Hong Kong odds** (or HK) odds are standard among the bookmakers in China. They are similar to fractional odds, except written not in a fractional but decimal form instead.
   * Formula: **Payout = Stake × Odds + Stake**
   * Example:
     * Odds: 1.50 - If you bet $10: Payout = 10 × 1.50 + 10 = $25 (which includes the $10 stake and $15 profit).
5. **Indonesian odds** are popular among bookmakers available in Indonesia. Positive odds work similarly to Hong Kong odds, negative odds represent how much you need to stake to win 1 unit in profit. These betting odds are quoted as a number with absolute value greater (or equal) than 1.
   * Formula:
     * Positive Odds (x>=1 → decimal odds >=2): **Payout = Stake × Odds + Stake**
     * Negative Odds (x<=-1 → decimal odds between 1 and 2): **Payout = - Stake/Odds + Stake**
   * Examples:
     * Odds: +1.50 - If you bet $10: Payout = 10 × 1.50 + 10 = $25 ($15 profit and $10 stake).
     * Odds: -1.50 - If you stake $10: Payout = -10/(-1.50) + 10 = $16.67(which includes $10 stake and $6.67 profit)
6. **Malay odds** are similar to Indonesian odds and are commonly used in Malaysia and Singapore. These betting odds are quoted as a number with absolute value no greater than 1 (or equal).
   * Formula:
     * Positive Odds (0\<x<=1 → decimal odds between 1 and 2): **Payout = Stake × Odds + Stake**
     * Negative Odds (-1<=x<0 → decimal odds >=2): **Payout = - Stake /Odds + Stake**
   * Examples:
     * Odds: +0.50 - If you bet $10: Payout = 10 × 0.50 + 10 = $15 ($5 profit and $10 stake).
     * Odds: -0.50 - If you bet $10: Payout = -10 /(-0.50) + 10 = $30 ($10 stake and 20$ profit).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.sportradar.com/mts/transaction-3.0-api/additional-transaction-details/odds-types.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
