Betsmith Betting Features
Let's begin by looking at our standout betting features, which work in tandem with politics and business betting.
Live Betting
Politics is ideal for in-play betting. Especially on big election nights, with big swings in momentum as the final votes are counted, Betsmith has a range of constantly updated live markets, so you can place live bets quickly.
Within each betting market, our detailed 'Statistics' tab contains key information. Delve into these stats to help inform your in-play betting decisions.
Cash Out
As the tension builds, our handy Cash Out option lets you decide whether to convert a winning bet into immediate cash rather than waiting for the outcome to play out. Keep an eye on your 'Open Bets' tab for potential Cash Out offers. This gives you the benefit of early bet settlement at a portion of the original odds.
Partial and full Cash Out let you decide to settle a part of your bet or the whole stake. If one of your bets is in a losing position, this can be useful to mitigate the risk of losing your whole stake.
Mobile Betting
Our top-rated mobile app is available on iOS and Android platforms. So visit the relevant app store to download the Betsmith mobile app and enjoy an alternative way to bet on politics from anywhere.
Betting Tips
Looking at the US presidential election 2024 odds, here are a few key pointers to help with your betting selections:
- Keep an eye out for news and social media for prevailing stories that might affect the latest odds. This can be useful to find some good value odds ahead of the curve.
- Try to avoid emotional betting choices. A feeling or bias may impact you when making a rational prediction. Instead, do some background research. Look at the statistics and data to make sensible wagering decisions.
- Bankroll management is key. Make a personal budget for the funds you have set aside for betting. Then, spread your bet stakes over several selections instead of placing your whole bankroll on one or two wagers. Our sportsbook has many different wagering options to enable sensible betting.
