Matchbook Extends 0% Commission Offer and Donates to 'Right to Play'

Betting exchange Matchbook has promised to extend its 0% soccer commission offer until the end of the European season, and will celebrate the success of the campaign with a charity partnership.

As well as extending the soccer promotion, which has been running since December, Matchbook has confirmed that in-play tennis betting will remain commission free.

And on top of that, all commission generated April 1st will be donated to Right To Play, a charity which aims to use sport to help children around the world overcome poverty, conflict and disease. Matchbook will also donate extra money for Right To Play ambassador,
former England cricket star Darren Gough, to play on their site, with all winnings going straight to the charity.

Matchbook.com offers in-play markets and pre-match betting on sports including soccer, tennis and March Madness basketball, and has one of the lowest commission rates of any betting exchange.

Information about Right To Play and the difference they make around the world is available from www.righttoplay.org.uk

Unbeatable 0% Commission on Soccer at Matchbook

When it comes to commission on sports bets, you can’t go lower than zero. That’s why Matchbook’s great new offer is worth waiting for.

The betting exchange is offering 0% commission across all soccer bets until 1 April – a huge four month promotion.

Unlike traditional sportsbooks, Matchbook’s exchange format lets you bet against other punters while the site takes its cut in the form of commission. Its normal rate of 1% is among the lowest in the industry anyway, but 0% can’t be beat.

Matchbook will continue to offer 1% commission on other markets, including NFL, NBA and boxing, meaning you’ll keep more of your winnings than on many other exchanges.

You can also place your bets via mobile, after Matchbook recently unveiled its new iPhone app, which has the same functionality as the Matchbook.com desktop site and lets you sync your preferred markets across devices. An Android version is on the way too, and should be ready by early 2014.
