BetPress

LICENSE TYPE: INFINITE

Description

BetPress is a WordPress plugin that allow your users to place betting slips on sports events and compete against each others.

The main idea of the plugin is to add a fun game to your website where users compete against each other guessing the outcome of different events. It simulates the very basic functionality of a bookmakers website (like bwin, bet365, betfair etc) where bets are not made with real money but a virtual points.

To make a bet, you have to create a slip having at least one bet option in it. The possible winnings of a slip are calculated by multiplying the odds of every bet option in it by the stake the user made. If all bet options turns out to be winning then the slip is winning. A slip could also end up losing, canceled or timed out. There is a detailed documentation for more info but you can understand how BetPress works by just seeing the demo: http://web-able.com/betpress/demo/

Please note that this is the Lite version of BetPress and in the demo you see the full version which has many extra features.

BetPress full version features:

Three odd types supported: European (decimal), UK (fractional) and USA (moneyline)
Semi-automated: You are always few clicks away from inserting up-to-date sports bettings. The plugin currently gets the data from Betclic API but is developed in a way where the third party provider can be changed anytime and that wont force you to do anything, not even update of the plugin. In other words BetPress wont get broken if Betclic decide to restrict the access to their API.
Monetized: BetPress allows you to sell points via PayPal and of course there are several settings that allow to set quantity restrictions.
